That's one glaring problem right there that's so easy to fix. Mark gets spoilt and punched forward to waiting opposition. So predictable 

 

It become so predictable by the 2nd quarter that now opposition teams just swam in numbers to the contest that'd been kicked to and just put number us.

Port did a number on this on our kick outs.

Listening to Nathan Buckley comment on how well Collingwood are playing is odd.

Whats changed since they finished 17th Bucks - seeings it’s 90% the same list? Oh, you got sacked. 

I was hoping hed keep coaching... :)

Bit weird watch Weid play well and then a GWS forward line with Bedford and Hogan in it. 

Has all the skills, my problem was his intensity, goes to show a regular game and structure in the forward line helps, I wonder where we could do that?

Can’t help but feel we dropped the ball with Weed. We have TMac BBB and Schache doing very little when the Weed in the forward line with JVR who provides the intensity could have worked well.

And who's fault is that we have a ruckman as a forward coach, should have changed it last year, kids like JVR and co need to learn forward craft at this level.

The best batting coach I had was a world class bowler. One of the greatest swimming coaches of all time - couldn't swim. It is beyond dispute that there is little correlation between a coach's competence and their capabilities as a athlete.

West Coast are putrid. Melbourne 2012-2014 level putrid.

I reckon WC are setting new levels in this space BDA, not doing an AFL pre season type levels.

How can the highest profiting club in the country not have a world class fitness and conditioning crew.

The amount of injuries they have is unforgivable, it seems as though they have carried over the old can't train because of covid 19 excuse.

Do they have a medical department?

It's the biggest tank going around on wheels and know one in the media in either WA or VIC have dug up a thing.

This is as systematic as it gets and Adam Simpson isn't even under pressure because the board have backed him to tank the lights out in 2022 and 2023.

They were dead set turnstiles today.

he got every chance in 2022. If he had come on we might have had a different outcome.

Good luck to him at the Bombers but his time with us was up.

Jesse Hogan on the other hand...

Wait and see how he goes when Wright  and Jones return. He is playing with more run and leading I admit but for how long.

    BOILED LOLLIES by The Oracle

    In the space of a month Melbourne has gone from chocolates to boiled lollies in terms of its standing as a candidate for the AFL premiership.  The club faces its moment of truth against a badly bruised up Collingwood at the MCG. A win will give it some respite but even then, it won’t be regarded particularly well being against an opponent carrying the burden of an injured playing list. A loss would be a disaster. The Demons have gone from a six/two win/loss ratio and a strong percentag

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an

    ALAS SPRINGS by Whispering Jack

    I got the word on Saturday from someone who knows someone inside the Fremantle camp that the Dockers were pumped and supremely confident about getting the W the next day against Melbourne at TIO Traeger Park in the red heart of the country. I was informed that the Dockers were extremely confident for a number of reasons. They had beaten the Demons on their home territory at the MCG at their last two meetings so they didn’t see beating them at Alice Springs as a problem. They belie

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,
