    Dominated most of that game but our forward half entries were shocking.

    Why we went with 4 medium talls in JvR, T-Mac, Fritsch and Smith when we haven't done it all year and then leave a key defender out I'll never know.

    Agree. Smith and McDonald should never get another game. But there again who do we replace them with. ?

    It hasn't worked and continuously gets out coached in big games. Goodwin is still learning but we are being coached to put ourselves in games to win. McRae could see how they were going to win and that's exactly how they did it. We were lucky to be so close, really. We fought back when it was still open for us but we lost it early

     

    who is sick of McRae  smily silly fool      I am going for Brisbane

    Losing a final with + 32 inside 50’s.

    How is that possible?

    We don't have a forward line, at least not KPF's. Losing Petty and Melksham is going to be the difference.

    Pleased with the fightback. 

    Bad kicking loses games every time

    Tmac wasn't a good selection 

    But we can still do this

    Pies looked bog ordinary when the heat is applied Cox and Mayonnaise are sniping dogs

    Who's next?

    Poor reactionary comments

    How is that reactionary? We had 32 more inside 50s. We could not score. End of story. 
    It’s the same issue we’ve had all year.

    Fourth rate forward line. Salem is very soft. Max, Trac and Bowza were good. Jordon should have been the sub. I despise that septic tank Cox.

    Beyond frustrating, played like merde yet the game was so tantalising close. Two decent kicks for goal was all that was needed, had enough opportunities last quarter to sink a ship trice over.

    Line in the MCG turf. Not doing straight sets.

    Played like we were at Casey training for the first quarter and a bit. 

     

    Had we played with the intensity and aggression of the last quarter from the beginning... well perhaps it would be a different story.

    My kingdom for an imposing power forward in the Tex Walker mould. This is a must this off-season. An actual forward to coach the forwards would also be a good start.

    Three finals losses, all significant wins on expected score. It's wasted chances versus luck from the opposition. 
    should have won that by 30+

    All three lost by a sub standard performance from our fwd line.

    I don't want to hear about entries being poor.

    Where were tge leads or pack marks?

    I het Fritta being quiet. He's played two games in half a season.

    Jvrs not ready yet.

    Tmacs cooked.

    Kozzie panicked. 

    Chandler  mia.

    Smith ok.

    It's last years finals all over again.

    Ridiculous amount of inside 50s but struggle to score.

    Unfortunately we're just not making the most of our opportunities with the list we have. 

    This will be the one we look back hard and cost ourselves big time.

    What absolute rubbish! We were all over them for probably 70% of that game. They were just cleaner going inside forward 50 on three occasions in the third quarter, that was the game right there. If you cant see that spirit of that last quarter, then hand your membership back pal. A game of moments, that is all it was. They just took theirs we didn’t. Absolutely nothing to do with the coach.

    Too late, why can't he prep them to have that intensity from the start?

    Selection this week has been proven wrong, specially Laurie and TMac.

    Why is the ABC interviewing that little Twerp Ginnivan after the game. WTF

    Double the inside 50s Collingwood didn’t win that game we lost it, I hope that really burns in the players guts, if we can somehow make it to the grand final we will smoke them that I have no doubt, if we don’t Brisbane will and wouldn’t surprise me if pies lose a prelim the most overrated team that the media will pump up like there is no tomorrow, absolutely ropeable with that loss

    Brayshaw may not play again given his concussion history. 

    Edit: this season

    That's a bit tough to say that when we do not know what has happened to Brayshaw yet don't you think ?

    We lose because of dumb execution and a lot of that was from players who should know better. Player spoiling each other when they have a two on one.

    Maynard better get 3 weeks.

    It was bad enough losing Melksham  but we probably  would have won with Gus not going down.

    Goodwin has gone from 5 - 1 in finals, and now on the brink to be 5 - 5.

    • 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.
