Can't blame the coaches for everything. Players do have brains. Allegedly.

It’s the coaches job to get these players fired up. We are watching top 4 slip away and nobody cares. 
Get angry FFS!!!!

    So much for the midfield group stepping up to cover Clarry not being there. Hopeless.

    Our forward entries are putrid. Bomb it in or when we have a fast break into attack our forwards run back toward goal instead of up to the ball carrier

    Summary up to 3Qtr time 

    overhandballing 

    turnovers 

    losing clearances 

    bombs to inside 50

    goody outcoached again 

    missed tackles 

    missed opportunities Fritsch Spargo Kozzzy 

    Surely Spargo has to be dropped 

    WHAT CAN WE DO?

    Just need to be smarter going inside 50

    use the corridor 

    stick tackles 

     

    These guys still think it is 2021, selfish and soft football.

    They aren't going to win games burning so many opportunities and palying selfish football.

    Nothing short of pathetic. Of Goodwin's 6.5 seasons as coach we've put up with 4 seasons of just average football that gets beaten as soon as the pressure is brought around the ball. Freo are a ruckman down, their spuds are running rings around us. It is a common narrative against us.

    Voss v Goodwin next week is battle of No Game Plan From Planet B Coaches.

    Our clearance game is so rubbish. We need wholesale changes next week.

    JVR, Chandler; probably AnB all gotta go

    We have too many smalls in the forward line. One of Spargo, Chandler and ANB need to come out for a mid or tall forward.

    ANB for Melksham.

    Our entries to the forward line stink. We have learned nothing

    Looking forward to the post game thread where people can tell us we don’t understand players roles.

    We overcomplicate this game.

    This score line is not the umpires fault.. we are playing negative & uninspiring footy. Our game plan is playing right into their hands. No dare. 

    And what gameplan is that?

    Pick 13 for Jackson... such good negotiators we are

    But last week Perth media hawking he's no action Jackson.

    Except of course we let him have his best game. So us of old.

    Forget winning a flag. We can't even win this one.

    The wheels have really just fallen off. 

    Tmac shouldn't play again and Grundy and gawn need to take a look at themselves. Lever and may too.

    Top 4 ? We have the hardest draw in the 2nd half. We are a chance to drop out of top 8 after the next 4 games as we have 0-4 written all over us.

    If players need someone to motivate them, they have an issue.

    I’d like to see Gawn hit it to a player in blue just once out of the middle, stand up skipper and be a match winner!

    We have problems everywhere Center clearances, defensive stoppages, ball movement, goal kicking.

    We aren't that quick either.

    Alarm bells are ringing in my head.

     

    If this is how our midfield operates without Oliver then we have a pretty long month ahead.

    • PREVIEW: Essendon

      Not long ago, the narrative surrounding Melbourne was steeped in pessimism. There was some concern among the pundits (and even some fans) that the club would arrive at the AFL’s Gather Round still winless, vulnerable to a familiar adversary in the Essendon Football Club, and facing significant scrutiny from an ever-critical media on a national stage. Things have changed.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      Steven King astutely identified the issues that had plagued the Melbourne Football Club over the past two and a half seasons when he auditioned for the newly created coaching role. The side that had claimed the 2021 premiership had become stodgy, slow-paced, and hesitant to take the initiative.

      Gather Round is upon us and the Demons face off against the Bombers who are on a 17 game losing streak. Who comes in and who goes out?

      The Demons put four quarters of hard contested, fast running and high pressure football to knock off the ladder leaders and early premiership contenders the Gold Suns by 20 points at the MCG on Easter Sunday.

    • PODCAST: Gold Coast

      I’ll be away for the next few weeks, so Binman will be holding the fort for our podcasts covering the Suns, Bombers and Lions matches. As a result, there will be no live podcasts during this period, and we won’t be taking calls or voicemails. Binman will still be dipping into this thread to select a few questions to answer, while also combining the long-form Stats Files podcast with the Demonland Podcast for these shows. Your questions and comments are a huge part of what makes the podcast work, so please post anything you’d like to ask or say below and we’ll do our best to give you a shout-out on the show. Please try to keep each post focused on one specific topic or player to make podcast preparation a little easier. If you have multiple topics you’d like to raise, please put them in separate posts.
