We werenโ€™t great. They were worse (flat?).

if anyone doesnt think we are in this up to our our eyeballs you are never going to let your mfcss look at football objectively. 
 

thanks binman 

 
  • Brayshaw's & ANBs first quarters would have had Goodwin searching for two sub vests, our field kicking woes continue
  • McVee sees the game in slow mo
  • Tomlinson fantastic game
  • Admirable effort from Smith but really need Petty in
  • Don't think we're able to play Pickett, ANB, Spargo, Chandler all in the same side, especially given none of them play midfield minutes - Oliver in for one last three
  • Would like to clone Salem and put one in the midfield

I reckon we should ask for a please explain from the AFL for Lever being paid a 50m against in the Anzac Eve game for carrying on behind the mark, and the Collingwood player at half time for Tracโ€™s kick after the siren doing the exact same thing for no resultant 50. Really poor.

Yes, it is unfair to brand him with that when there is such a wondrous variety of annoying American types to choose from.

Hmmm, all Pie supporters are toothless bogans with low intellect and poor hygiene. Thatโ€™s a givenโ€ฆ.

 

All Texans are inbreed red flag gun lobbyists who wear white pointy hats/face masks. 
 

Thatโ€™s all  the proof I need
 

Cox is a toolโ€ฆ.

Really impressive display and great by many players but special mention to two Dโ€™Land whipping boys - Tomlinson and Smith. 


The kick by Viney to JVR in Q4 was awesome. JVR was surrounded by 3 filth people.

As good as the famous Harmes kick to Fritsch.

Pendlebury was caught HTB with a few minutes to go. Nothing to see here? And the free kicks to the filth at the end? FFS!!! 

A week ago I said we could beat this mob. It should have been by 6 goals. However I will take 4 points. 

 

According to the media the Amazing Pies almost did their mythical thing again against some other team.


After conceding the first 3 goals , we switched on and strangled them. Really worked ourselves in every contest. Bring that to every game and we'll be right in it at the business end this year

Enjoy the win mate. Great game of footyโ€ฆ. 

I thought ANB stopped many run-ons for The Filth, thus giving (when needed) his teammates those necessary moments to catch and beat their Filth opponents; and, he did this, once again, crushed with the ball under at least six Filth players.

Pls Binno.

His fumbles and indecisiveness going i50 are killers. If we lost everyone else would be asking for his head too.

Perhaps he's just in the middle of a loading phase & he'll come good....? 

Then he'll get dropped then won't he.

Not.

Coz a premiership coach understands footy and knows just how hard he works and the incredible amount of ground he covers.

Were you at the game?

if you were you would have seen a player push himself to the limit and beyond.

He is almost always completely spent.

But sure let's knock his skilll errors under intense fatigue.

How many other dees players would have had the aerobic capacity and speed late in the game to mark that high kick from kozzie.

Not one.

He won us the game and you want him droppe.

I edited my comment because it was unnecessarily snarky.

Snarky, maybe.

Accurate, absolutely.

If this was about any other country there would be outrage about racism. Can't you just say you don't like the bloke and leave the anti USA out.

Personally, stuff him.

No it wouldn't. People say similar about a whole bunch of countries (whinging Pom, etc).

I'm in no way denigrating him because of his race.

Great result, so proud of the boys ticka, but the goal kicking is becoming a cause for concern.

And Mason Cox is a massive [censored].


Loved that Salem is back. His contested work is phenomenal.

McVee just gets better and better. He is becoming a weapon off half back.

Hunter cracked in hard today which was great to see.

Viney is having a career best season.

Apart from one shocking set shot, Joel Smith was terrific. Maybe he could be the missing link?

The small forwards were abysmal. Kozzie, ANB, Spargo and Chandler really have to make an impact on the scoreboard. ANB's fumbling will be costly in the heat of finals.  Don't know what to do with Kozzie.

Grundy improved in the second half, but needed to.

Tomlinson was back to 2021 pre-knee form. Kudos.

By the end of the year I expect JvR will be a major handful for defences.

Fritta slaughtered Darcy Moore.

All duck and no dinnerโ€ฆ

 

Our structure is so much stronger with a second tall to free up Lever and Salem back in the side.

Clarry, Bowey and Petty are salivating inclusions after the bye.

Americans are not a race.

Yep.

And all three goals were as a result of poor skill errors by us and resulting turnovers.

More nervy errors than pies pressure I reckon.

I think they scored 5 goals from turnovers - three in the first q. So we sorted that issue well.

Just watched Tom Browne on the Ch.7 news - heโ€™s so unbelievably biased towards the filth itโ€™s disgusting.

Joel Smith has changed this forward line.

One shocking kick at goal but otherwise he added a much needed spark, if only some people (entire MFC coaching department) could have seen this earlier.

Viney lives for the big stage, Salem was back to his Grand Final best.

Today was his warm-up; some of us at DL have known for some time that this ability would surface as a consequence of him playing way-back-when as a backman. He learnt some tricks; reversed these, used these today. Soon, he won't miss his shots...today he was a 4-goal man with a lack of gametime practice. Got excellent reach, hasn't he? Mobile as a forward and finds space.

100% agree. Daicos simply couldnโ€™t go with him and kossie made it bloody tough for him. Watching him at the game is the only way you can appreciate his value. Heโ€™s an absolute workhorse and zero chance he gets dropped.

 

Viney was clear best on ground.

But how good was salo?

And Tomlinson was just fantastic.

  • REPORT: Hawthorn

    There was a time during the current Melbourne cycle that goes back to before the premiership when the club was the toughest to beat in the fourth quarter. The Demons were not only hard to beat at any time but it was virtually impossible to get the better them when scores were close at three quarter time. It was only three or four years ago but they were fit, strong and resilient in body and mind. Sadly, those days are over. This has been the case since the club fell off its pedestal about 12 months ago after it beat Geelong and then lost to Carlton. In both instances, Melbourne put together strong, stirring final quarters, one that resulted in victory, the other, in defeat. Since then, the drop off has been dramatic to the point where it can neither pull off victory in close matches, nor can it even go down in defeat  gallantly.

  • CASEY: Footscray

    At twenty-four minutes into the third term of the game between the Casey Demons and Footscray VFL at Whitten Oval, the visitors were coasting. They were winning all over the ground, had the ascendancy in the ruck battles and held a 26 point lead on a day perfect for football. What could go wrong? Everything. The Bulldogs moved into overdrive in the last five minutes of the term and booted three straight goals to reduce the margin to a highly retrievable eight points at the last break. Bouyed by that effort, their confidence was on a high level during the interval and they ran all over the despondent Demons and kicked another five goals to lead by a comfortable margin of four goals deep into the final term before Paddy Cross kicked a couple of too late goals for a despondent Casey. A testament to their lack of pressure in the latter stages of the game was the fact that Footscrayโ€™s last ten scoring shots were nine goals and one rushed behind. Things might have been different for the Demons who went into the game after last weekโ€™s bye with 12 AFL listed players. Blake Howes was held over for the AFL game but two others, Jack Billings and Taj Woewodin (not officially listed as injured) were also missing and they could have been handy at the end. Another mystery of the current VFL system.

  • PREGAME: Brisbane

    The Demons head back out on the road in Round 10 when they travel to Queensland to take on the reigning Premiers and the top of the table Lions who look very formidable. Can the Dees cause a massive upset? Who comes in and who goes out?

    Wayward kicking for goal, dump kicks inside 50 and some baffling umpiring all contributed to the Dees not getting out to an an early lead that may have impacted the result. At the end of the day the Demons were just not good enough and let the Hawks run away with their first win against the Demons in 7 years.
