Backline not good but where is the midfield? 

yep

has been missing

Oliver loopy handballs that put pressure on the receiver don't help

 

All I want is an eight goal first quarter from us. Is that too much to ask?

Getting fed up with this group not wanting to give 100% effort and trying to rely on talent. Lazy.

Reckon our coaching group needs a good old clean out at years end. Doing the same things over and over expecting different results

 

There smalls are getting it and kicking goals easily in their forward line.

Our main small forward flies for mark of the year.

On a lighter side a bloke just won 10k kicking the footy into the Haymes paint barrel

Resting with the backline.

 

Look at this post. 

Slitting wrists.

Our structure is way better. They are playing like rabid dogs

Jvrs a kid and Petty isn't strong enough to play forward. 

The club has risked too much on tmac and bbb.

We dropped tmac who was going fine it’s our own fault 


This group is all Hollywood

This is a repeat of last week.

I think we should put Max at ff.

Nobody else looks like marking it.

Well the good news is we know by April that this list is as currently constituted is done.

New forward and backline assistant coaches and a big influx of running players needed.

Going to be a slog watched 17 more weeks but better to know now than pretend

Why the [censored] are we giving Cumberland a field day? He's not that good.

I think he's a pretty good explosive player

Confident we respond this quarter. 

We have far too many good players to not respond.

C'mon Dees.

Some big reputations on the line if this showing doesn't improve. Defence shaky again, Kozzy lost in an outrun midfield, and delivery inside 50 hopeless. And Harmes and Dunstan apart, the second-stringers showed nothing for Casey yesterday either. Big test ahead to see how smart Goody really is.

Not enough effort & run in that quarter.

Tigers are mopping up ground balls allover while we comtinue to flounder and fumble.

Look laconic and a bit too slow accross the park ...even in the middle there's just no chemistry in that quarter


We've been found out, another loss coming

 

Sick of seeing two of us going for the mark. Talk.

If that maggot is so adamant on the rules he would’ve called play on on grimes for going over the mark

  • REPORT: Hawthorn

    There was a time during the current Melbourne cycle that goes back to before the premiership when the club was the toughest to beat in the fourth quarter. The Demons were not only hard to beat at any time but it was virtually impossible to get the better them when scores were close at three quarter time. It was only three or four years ago but they were fit, strong and resilient in body and mind. Sadly, those days are over. This has been the case since the club fell off its pedestal about 12 months ago after it beat Geelong and then lost to Carlton. In both instances, Melbourne put together strong, stirring final quarters, one that resulted in victory, the other, in defeat. Since then, the drop off has been dramatic to the point where it can neither pull off victory in close matches, nor can it even go down in defeat  gallantly.

  • CASEY: Footscray

    At twenty-four minutes into the third term of the game between the Casey Demons and Footscray VFL at Whitten Oval, the visitors were coasting. They were winning all over the ground, had the ascendancy in the ruck battles and held a 26 point lead on a day perfect for football. What could go wrong? Everything. The Bulldogs moved into overdrive in the last five minutes of the term and booted three straight goals to reduce the margin to a highly retrievable eight points at the last break. Bouyed by that effort, their confidence was on a high level during the interval and they ran all over the despondent Demons and kicked another five goals to lead by a comfortable margin of four goals deep into the final term before Paddy Cross kicked a couple of too late goals for a despondent Casey. A testament to their lack of pressure in the latter stages of the game was the fact that Footscray’s last ten scoring shots were nine goals and one rushed behind. Things might have been different for the Demons who went into the game after last week’s bye with 12 AFL listed players. Blake Howes was held over for the AFL game but two others, Jack Billings and Taj Woewodin (not officially listed as injured) were also missing and they could have been handy at the end. Another mystery of the current VFL system.

  • PREGAME: Brisbane

    The Demons head back out on the road in Round 10 when they travel to Queensland to take on the reigning Premiers and the top of the table Lions who look very formidable. Can the Dees cause a massive upset? Who comes in and who goes out?

    Wayward kicking for goal, dump kicks inside 50 and some baffling umpiring all contributed to the Dees not getting out to an an early lead that may have impacted the result. At the end of the day the Demons were just not good enough and let the Hawks run away with their first win against the Demons in 7 years.
