20-46 since our hot start.

Might need to crank up the pressure again? Have to use our chances. Have been poor going forward this qtr.

 

Lions far cleaner with the ball, less dinky kicks and handballs and more run. Seen this movie before. Something will have to change for us to win this one.

why do we keep appealing for frees,kossi stopped appealed and didnt chase no pressure

 

This will be a smashing if we can't stop turning it over and losing clearances. That's why we got in front - winning clearances and crisp disposal.


Turnovers turnovers turnovers

first quarter long and direct, second quarter = handball mayhem. Why?

Disposal in our forward half is absolute tripe. 

 

ANB a turnover machine or risk 😠

Say what you want about Trac's kicking, he is usually good for a big time goal.

Mate JJ cleaned that play, it almost was a turnover.

Cardinal sin imo. If you’ve got time to complain, you’ve got time to chase and tackle

Gee what's he doing different,  oh that's kicking straight over the man on the mark.

 

 

We're living and dying on ANB's disposal right now. He's in everything, and everything he does turns to a goal for Melbourne or the Lions.

  • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

    It seems like only yesterday that these two sides faced off against each other in the centre of the continent. It was when Melbourne was experiencing a rare period of success with five wins from its previous six matches including victories over both of last year’s grand finalists.  Well, it wasn’t yesterday but it was early last month and it remains etched clearly in the memory. The Saints were going through a slump and the predicted outcome of their encounter at TIO Traeger Park was a virtual no-brainer. A Melbourne victory and another step closer to a possible rise into finals contention. Something that was unthinkable after opening the season with five straight defeats.

  • 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.
