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

    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.

    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.

    St Kilda showcasing the Belgian national colours.

    The Saints actually switched to those colours during WWI as the German colours were red, black and white.

    Saints win the award for the best indigenous jumper in my opinion

     bizarre that not many have used yellow. especially essendon who have the other two colours on the flag

    Toby Bedford can run but little impact. 

    Gritty win by the Saints. Would gladly take Wanganeen Milera off their hands.

    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.

    • 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.

    • 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.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
