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.

  • REPORT: West Coast

    On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

  • POSTGAME: West Coast

    Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.
