    Worst half of footy for the year 

    worst than v lions 

    worst than v bombers 

    worst than v port 

    overhandballing is horrible 

    ineffective inside 50

    going wide going wide and wide 

    Best. Ummm Trac and lots of others just going ok. 

    Viney. Kozzzy. Chin. Do something!!! And Spargo is a negative 

    What happened to Chandler? Is he being tagged? A shell of his former self, had a great 5-6 rounds to start the year.

    Any chance we try and go fast and direct through the corridor?

    That involves winning the clearances. So no.

    Why does Kozzy seem to be on a rollercoaster every game?.

    One spectacular goal, or play. Then 10 minutes of zero impact or involvement.

    💯

    It's a scrap. Grundy's two shot should be goals. Similarly, Harmes.

    Midfield is ineffective with Viney being tagged, Tracc quiet that quarter.

    The secondary midfield not really cutting it.

    Story of our season

    Same at Casey

    Boring team to watch save for 2021 finals series

    This is a soft effort from us.

    Viney and Lever really need to lift.

    Jv no disposals last quarter.  A grand two touches for a half.

    Jacko best on hound. Great work Dees.

    Can Tmac lay a tackle just once please.

    Meantime JJ can’t buy a game.

    2 half backlines dominating, both teams struggling to find much cohesion between wing and half forward. Not a pretty game to watch. 

    I don't understand the modern interpretation of a push in the back. In 2/3 of contested marking, someone is shoving the person in front forward and it is not paid. Gawn does it a lot, and cops it a lot. 

    Early today in this thread I mentioned handballing, tackling, and F50 efficiency. Tackling = tick. The other 2 are the mess they have been all year.

    Any chance Goodwin's could give up like Hardwick

    It's a strange feeling when Reddit is the best option for a rational discussion of something. The game day threads here are something else.

    it’s shocker, isn’t it. It’s got real Sunday afternoon 4;20pm game, circa 2014, feels. 

    That's exactly how it feels and it shouldn't. We are a top 4 team playing a team out of the 8 and should be comfortably winning. 

    All I can think is what Collingwood will do to us in 2 weeks time

    We’ve had numerous opportunities when we’ve won the ball off half back.

    A dreadful game - we have no zip at all, absolutely flat. Freo are terrible also - the Pies would have put these guys to bed already. 
     

    Not sure where our lift is going to come from, but it doesn’t bode well for the rest of the year.

    How so?

    Strating to forget the last time Kozzie tore a game apart.

    I think it was before he was suspended.

    Been a while.

    Sadly Chandler following his lead.

    Our forward line is 6tuffed.

    And tried to take a mark 1 hander. He doesn't do enough 

    Let’s try for the first 10 minutes of the 3/4 kamakzi run and gun, fast ball movement , play on at all costs to an open fwd line with Fritsch coming out of the square, Chandler and Kosi 25-30 metres out in opposite pockets.

    Disposal efficiency says it all

    Dees 69% vs 79% Freo

    Yep our skills are terrible. Handballs and short kicking going astray. Need to rectify in the 2nd half or we are in big trouble. We also over use the ball when under pressure instead of getting a quick kick into the forwards. Hate to be a forward in this team.

    He needs to be coached.

    You wonder what they do over the preseason? Plenty of time to work on skills...🤔🤔🤔

    • NON-MFC: Round 07

      Round 7 gets underway in iconic fashion with the traditional ANZAC Day blockbuster. The high-flying Magpies will be looking to solidify their spot atop the ladder, while the Bombers are desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top eight. Later that evening, Fremantle will be out to redeem themselves after a disappointing loss to the Demons, facing a hungry Adelaide side with eyes firmly set on breaking into the top four. Saturday serves up a triple-header of footy action. The Lions will be looking to consolidate their Top 2 spot as they head to Marvel Stadium to clash with the Saints. Over in Adelaide, Port Adelaide will be strong favourites at home against a struggling North Melbourne. The day wraps up with a fiery encounter in Canberra, where the Giants and Bulldogs renew their bitter rivalry. Sunday’s schedule kicks off with the Suns aiming to bounce back from their shock defeat to Richmond, taking on the out of form Swans.Then the Blues will be out to claim a major scalp when they battle the Cats at the MCG. The round finishes with a less-than-thrilling affair between Hawthorn and West Coast at Marvel. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • REPORT: Fremantle

      For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

    • CASEY: UWS Giants

      The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

    • PREGAME: Richmond

      The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?

      A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.
