Defensive Dump Kicks

Would rather they just take the tackle for a ball up/htb risk or punt it to the boundary for deliberate and worsen the angle. Dump snapping it to 30-40m out directly in front in a panic and hoping we'll have a player there, is costing us massively.

Just want to get my 1 knee jerk post-loss reaction post for the year out of the way.

This drives me up the wall. Along with Healys grumpy commentary.

    The Salem one with his opposite foot at the City end made me lose my cool.

    Where are the teammates presenting better options? That's the real issue in these situations.

    These defensive stoppage miskicks in the last 2 weeks have cost us big.

    Its the by-product of teams placing extra pressure in our D50 and Dee players 💩 the bed.

    Yeah why did he do that?

    Is there a full moon out today? Did someone forget to lock the alcohol and medicine cabinet?

    • 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.
