Just now, whatwhat say what said:

completely different midfield set-up for casey without either jj or woey 2.0 there

jvr gets a goal out the back; he's been very quiet

Has he had a chance ?

    he's been stationed i50 and only just had his first major lead up the ground to mark, handed it off to white who bombed it straight to chandler with two blokes on him

    tomlinson is an awful kick - under zero pressure he kicks it straight to oppo's tallest bloke on the ground, who drops it, and the rove ended up with harmes marking just outside the square for a goal

    Funny kind of quarter. We were dominated by Sandy, who didn't capitalise. Then in the last 10 minutes started getting better forward entries. 

    Many of the MFC listed were in and out of the game.  Also, occasionally sloppy with handling and disposals. 

    Interesting that they are playing Chandler as a mid, some of the time.

    What's happened to Turner, as he is not playing?

    JVR looking very ordinary 

    Some of the delivery's been a bit ordinary.  Under blusty conditions though.  Might help if the Jeffo & Roohey worked to get front position a tad more

    Blake Howes classy. Beats two on the wing then a perfect kick. Jefferson taking two great marks and delivering a good ball to Schache who lost it in the sun. Laurie creates a good mark to AMW who misses. Getting back on top. Good experience for Verral in his third game playing on a genuine AFL ruck in Cambell.

    JVR takes a nice chest mark at 50. Misses an easy pass to Chandler who passes to Jefferson who gets punched in the head. No free, Schache gets a free in the ensuing throw in and goals. We’re on top atm.

    JVR takes a lovely mark on the lead at 48m. Kade Chandler demands the footy leading to a deep pocket, bottles the mark and it spills over the boundary. Chandler playing for himself. 
     

    Schache meanwhile gets a free, kicks his fourth. He must come into the side, and Gawn or Grundy has a spell. Maybe ply one as a sub

    This English guy commentating is mixing up his players.

    Called Schache Laurie after a goal and Moniz Wakefield, Chandler and then Munro, before getting it right.

    Sounds like he wants Brian Taylor's job

    Pretty sure that JVR kick was in to the teeth of the breeze, they both stuffed the pass.

    Schache got a soft in the back free. Nice finish, he’s putting his hand up but not busting the door down.

    We should give Deakyn Smith a run as a defensive pressure forward, he’s down the pecking order as a defender but he’s a really willing competitor.

    • 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.
