Another classic game day thread

I really hate how we capitulate in quarters. It’s one thing to do against good teams. It’s embarrassing to do it against a side that doesn’t even want to win.Ā 

 

I am furious after watching that quarter. Allowing the Hawks to play like that is inexcusable.Ā 

Fumbling.Ā 

Fritsch - what is going on? Does he need a spell at Casey?

And if I see another handball to a team mate's feet I will scream.Ā 


Made to look ordinary by the 2nd last team on the ladder.

They had control in the centre easily.

Lift Dees FFS!!!!!!

Ā 

Hunter, Chandler, Spargo, Fritsch, Sparrow quiet quartersĀ

There’s lots of seagulls here tonight.Ā 

Why they waited til that quarter to play the ā€˜How to beat Melbourne’ method, who knows. They aren’t good enough to make it last of course, and don’t haveĀ the efficiency, but boy does it show once more how we can lose control of the game when ANY team plays that way. Troubling…..

Hopefully we saved the best for last. Hawks turned up the intensity that quarterĀ 


Chandler needs to find a way to get involved.Ā 

Langers and ANB are not in very good form.

Wrested back control when Max went in ruck.

Tracc and Oliver good.

Petty off messes up structure.


Ā 

Cos I guess we’re going to eek a win v 18th??

    It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?

  • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

    It seems like only yesterday that these two sides faced off against each other in the centre of the continent. It was when Melbourne was experiencing a rare period of success with five wins from its previous six matches including victories over both of last year’s grand finalists.Ā  Well, it wasn’t yesterday but it was early last month and it remains etched clearly in the memory. The Saints were going through a slump and the predicted outcome of their encounter at TIO Traeger Park was a virtual no-brainer.Ā A Melbourne victory and another step closer to a possible rise into finals contention. Something that was unthinkable after opening the season with five straight defeats.

  • REPORT: Carlton

    I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.Ā

  • CASEY: Carlton

    The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.
