NON-MFC: Rd 11 2023



Recommended Posts

So many people question Voss's coaching, but the game plan looks quite good. It is the blues players! They are doing well in the air, at stoppages, around the ground etc... they just can't kick. Their kicking inside forward 50 is so bog ordinary, and the targets they miss when unpressured must totally burn the coaches. 

If Rowbottam, Warner and others would take first option instead of trying to break every tackle or run through 3 players, the Swans would have a lot more F50 entries. Must be annoying for their forwards.

And both Swans & Blues are not good tacklers. So many get broken. 

Could be a great game, and it is not too bad, but unpressured skill level  is ruining it.

How romantic.

Have some beef too to round out the ‘3 B’s’

This shouldn’t be confused with Bug Ben Brown. 
This is ‘Beer Bongs and beef’

I’m struggling to watch other games at the moment. The AFL is doing my head in. Sounds like this game is trash and I’m not missing out on much.

Said this a couple of weeks ago, games just a mess. I’m struggling even getting into our matches.

I'm not sure if it's strictly on topic, but those women in Boney M were really hot.

Not strictly on-topic, Bingers. But very close.

Surely Franklin must retire at the end of the season? A shadow of his former self.

Other than his kicking Curnow (Charlie) is playing really well.

What's up with Walsh? 

Warner tries to take on the tackler too often. 

Excuse my ramblings.

They’re way more interesting than this match. 
🥱

I flicked over to check the NRL score and even checked the fox cricket channel to see if there was anything on.

A lot of football for no effect. Half back lines are dominating the game. The stats show Carlton kicking at 75% efficiency. Absolute rubbish. Their field kicking is a mess, and the Swans not much better.

Cerrra a chance to get suspended with that sling tackle on Hickey?

Head hit turf.

If consistent yes.. but no, free to play Melbourne

    POINT WELL MADE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons had a number of points to make to themselves, their opponents and the VFL football world when they traveled up to the Gold Coast to take on the Southport Sharks in the 2022 Grand Final rematch at Fankhauser Reserve.  After living off the glory of an almost perfect premiership, the Demons stumbled after winning the opening four games of the season and have struggled in their recent northern state sojourns - their only loss in 2022 came at the hands of the Lions in Brisbane a

    BLUES FREE FOOTY by George on the Outer

    Long time supporters would be all too familiar with the call “free kick, Hawthorn”, as umpires seemed to gift certain teams an inordinate amount of free kicks in the game. Similarly, in the Melbourne v Carlton game a 22 to 13 free kick count, was grossly out of place given the dominance of Melbourne in just about every other statistic for the game.   However, for the Blues with only 4½ wins from their 12 games, their season is rapidly heading the same way as Hawthorn, despite all the help t

    GAMEDAY: Rd 12 vs Carlton

    The Blues season is on the line and their captain and coach have been in the firing line all week. If the Dees cough this one up the media's crosshairs will do a 180 and will surely be directed at the Demons who have only won 13 games from their last 25 outings. This is a must win game for the Melbourne Football Club too.

    DOCTORS AND LAWYERS by The Oracle

    We’ve seen it all before.   Club in turmoil. Coach under pressure. Club President caught up in a tax scandal. Club board not seeing eye to eye with one board member resigning amid questions about whether he was pushed or did he jump? Unrest bordering on hysteria among the supporters. Team dropping from undefeated after four rounds to 13th after ten. Allegations of favoured treatment of players. Players out of form, forwards with the kicking yips, a bruising injury list with some facing

    WRITING ON THE WALL by Whispering Jack

    The Narrm Football Club found a second way in the space of 12 months less a day to unexpectedly lose a home game against Walyalup on Saturday afternoon. The equivalent match of last year has been described as Melbourne’s “ground zero” of 2022 where things went wrong for the club after a long run of wins that included its 57 year drought-breaking premiership triumph. Unfortunately for the Demons, the 2023 version was a case of deja vu with the Dockers overcoming a half time deficit and runn
