Just there is a lot of wrist slashing here as usual. Completely dominated the half, but failed to execute on the scoreboard. That’s the end of the story. Listening to BT and Jones, who doesn’t want to appear biased, barracking for GWS is worse than the goal kicking 

Failed to execute on the scoreboard = loss = bad

Kozzy is a ghost on the field. Always watching the players carrying the ball, never going after them. Wants the easy ball.

It's driving me nuts. Used to be hard at it but last month or so been soft

At this stage I am going to have fluffy pups after watching this. We should be at least a minimum of 4 goals in front.

He’s too lazy a player at the moment when it comes to reading and reacting to the play. How many times that half was he in the wrong position?

Get the ball to 20m out with BB bringing it to ground, then have the smalls crumb it, ffs. It isn’t that hard.

How is our forward connection?

Our delivery into our forward 50 has been laser like in its precision, the only problem is it’s nearly always to a Giant standing on his own. It’s doing my head in. Our field kicking has been abysmal, even taking into account the wet conditions. Goal kicking worse.

Bad kicking is bad footy, very simple

What a joke of a footy team up forward.

  • Today 2g 9b
  • v  Cats 8g 15b
  • v Pies 8g 18b
  • v Blues 8g 13b

3 1/2 games and we have kicked 26g 55b

I posted that we have become the worst kicks for goal in the AFL, excepting one bad night by the Swans.

As long as you identify as one you don’t need wheels.

My kingdom for a player who identifies as a goal kicking forward.

Hasn't been the same since his suspension, lost confidence to go in hard

My bad, don't support local business people it's the devil. Especially in the red centre.

So much of what we do is so good. Really good.

And then we kick forward and lose all vision, all strategy, and basic skills. 

Our game plan, rotations, Gawn and Grundy, attack on the ball, tackling etc... all seem to work well, and our back half defence really is a wonderful thing to behold. So I just don't get our dreadful forward skills.

FMD I can’t keep watching this. It’s actually just a joke. 

I know how you feel. But for mine it’s Demonland that’s unbearable. I’d forgotten how pathetic some of the “fans” are on here.  I only came on here to share what I hear about Fritta but it’s not possible without seeing some of these posts that are just too much. Further compounded by hearing my peeps doing their best behind the goals, fully supporting our boys regardless of the score.

Anyways medicos just had another meeting. They can’t manage his pain. They’re gonna do a pain block infusion. Apparently it’s a common procedure.

Didn’t like Grundy stopping and appealing for a free when the ball was right there

My pet hate...contested ball...turns to umpire to plead for a free


binman - is this all loading?

Free kick count 14-1 in our favor. We’ve brought the paper bags this week!

Expect that to get evened up in the second half and cost us the game.

He's waiting to come back after we finish them off with a 15 goal to 2 goal second half.

I used to shout out every week that this is the one he'll kick a bag. I've stopped.

Been more than a month. Since he came back from suspension I'd say 

Didn't he tear it up last AS game?

Shell of his old self.

 

Chandler the same too.

Just hope Frittas ok and we stop selling this game.

  • NON-MFC: Round 06

    The Easter Round kicks off in style with a Thursday night showdown between Brisbane and Collingwood, as both sides look to solidify their spots inside the Top 4 early in the season. Good Friday brings a double-header, with Carlton out to claim consecutive wins when they face the struggling Kangaroos, while later that night the Eagles host the Bombers in Perth, still chasing their first victory of the year. Saturday features another marquee clash as the resurgent Crows look to rebound from back-to-back losses against a formidable GWS outfit. That evening, all eyes will be on Marvel Stadium where Damien Hardwick returns to face his old side—the Tigers—coaching the Suns at a ground he's never hidden his disdain for. Sunday offers two crucial contests where the prize is keeping touch with the Top 8. First, Sydney and Port Adelaide go head-to-head, followed by a fierce battle between the Bulldogs and the Saints. Then, Easter Monday delivers the traditional clash between two bitter rivals, both desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top end of the ladder. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

  • REPORT: Essendon

    What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.

  • POSTGAME: Essendon

    Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.
