Just did enough 

Wasted many opportunities 

Too many turnovers 

Tackling impressive overall 

Thankful for Grundy 

Tmcd welcome back 

Kozzy almost amazing 

Gotta love JV

Fritsch all class 

lots just satisfactory 

Trac kicked straight 

Goal-line tech f@$@$&@$&d

 

Thought Sparrow was 'above standard' today.

Starting to his use strength to break away from tackles.


Thought Nibbler was excellent. In a game where we weren't clean it was the tackles and pressure that counted and he smashed it in both categories.

Also tackled very well

joeboy, back to your ‘slightly’ controversial best. Did you mistakenly wear your bottom of the coke bottle specs? With prescription standard  correction you’d get clearer 60 60 vision. Respectfully suggest:

Angus Brayshaw;  battled man fully 

Alex Neal-Bullen; nibbled not nobbled

 

Edited by Tarax Club
Auto-correct can be bloody annoying!


I think Angus would need to have 100 possessions @ 100% and your comment would :  Doesn't share !!

ANB worked his ring off!!!

Hardly sighted
Please

It is good to see ANB working so hard and his ground coverage is tremendous (most opposition sides tend to divert around him, now. as a consequence). His defensive game is really improving; and, it is just great when he is nearing the goals - he has improved his accuracy and kit-bag of kicking skills to score rather frequently and often, has found space in which to deploy.

Petty, Not a Forward!

Could not watch and listened after a few glasses of Shiraz,

so on these observations 

MFC. Many diverse views.


really good to have a lightening rod to attract differing opinions 

thanks joeboy 

Funny how people have such different perspectives. 

I sighted Anb numerous times. I saw about 7 hard tackles from him.

Played well.

  • PREVIEW: West Coast

    It was bad enough that the Melbourne Football Club created yet another humiliating scenario inside its wretched season at Marvel Stadium last Sunday, but the final insult is that it has been commanded to return to the scene of the crime to inflict further punishment on its fans this week. Incidentally, if this match preview, of a game that promises to be one of the most unattractive fixtures in the history of the game, happens to cut out of your computer screen three quarters of the way through, it’s no coincidence. I’ll be mirroring the Demons’ lacklustre effort against St Kilda from last Sunday when they conceded the largest last quarter turnaround for victory in the history of the game.

  • REPORT: St. Kilda

    When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.

  • CASEY: Sandringham

    The Casey Demons rebounded from a sluggish start to manufacture a decisive win against Sandringham in the final showdown, culminating a quarter century of intense rivalry between the fluctuating alignments of teams affiliated with AFL clubs Melbourne and St Kilda, as the Saints and the Zebras prepare to forge independent paths in 2026. After conceding three of the first four goals of the match, the Demons went on a goal kicking rampage instigated by the winning ruck combination of Tom Campbell with 26 hitouts, 26 disposals and 13 clearances and his apprentice Will Verrall who contributed 20 hitouts. This gave first use of the ball to the likes of Jack Billings, Bayley Laurie, Riley Bonner and Koltyn Tholstrup who was impressive early. By the first break they had added seven goals and took a strong grip on the game. The Demons were well served up forward early by Mitch Hardie and, as the game progressed, Harry Sharp proved a menace with a five goal performance. Emerging young forwards Matthew Jefferson and Luker Kentfield kicked two each but the former let himself down with some poor kicking for goal.
    Young draft talent Will Duursma showed the depth of his talent and looks well out of reach for Melbourne this year. Kalani White was used sparingly and had a brief but uneventful stint in the ruck.

    The Demons return to the scene of the crime on Saturday to face the wooden spooners the Eagles at the Docklands. Who comes in and who goes out? Like moving deck chairs on the Titanic.
