POSTGAME: QF vs Collingwood

We kept them to 2 behinds in that final term. We had chances. Friita, sparrow and Pickett all kicking it out on the full. 

Max botching his pass and his shot for goal earlier, Langdon selfishly taking the advantage when he didn't have to in the 3rd quarter. Pickett missing some easy ones.

Trac went missing. Oliver's kicks went nowhere & van Rooyen realised finals is a whole new level

    Yep, there was a potential goal for Kozzy in the 2nd. Fritsch didn't Shepard the defender, touched.

    A goal to.put us back to 10 pts and with momentum change in the 2nd.

    There was one in the first as well.

    He smothered and then put a shoulder into Gus' head.

    Can't wait for the AFL to rule it as him 'protecting himself'.

     

    He might get a week for the head butt on viney not a good look

    I would do it again. Maynard is a serial thug. He lines up players. Same with Cox. Bog ordinary footballers who deserve some of their own medicine back. 

     

    OK, not going to argue but just think wishing potential career ending injuries is a bit too much.

    Hope Gus is OK and able to play in the preliminary

    With so many inside 50’s, Spargo could have been a difference with his smart forward play. He should replace Chandler next week.

    Our bomb it in strategy just has to stop. I believe in this group of coaches but can someone please coach our forwards to lead and our mids to lower the eyes.

    If we’re still doing this rubbish next year serious questions will have to asked. It’s just unacceptable for a finals team to have such a basic forward 50 plan. I know we have players out but it’s been the same strategy when everyone is fit. I’m sick of it. Same old story. Sort it out ffs.

    Gus copping a concussion could also be career ending! 
    Maynard lined up a guy going into open space running full tilt. In a [censored] helmet because he’s had a long history of head injuries. It was a pathetic thug move.

    If Pies can mark those bombs why couldn't we ?

    We certainly  had like 30 more than they did.

    I’ll just leave this here:

    Goodwin: “In finals, your vulnerabilities are exposed”

    Our vulnerability is our ability to score. It’s been our vulnerability for 2 years, and we thought we could fix it with an old forward who hasn’t played AFL footy in months

    To be fair we ran out of options. Petty and Melksham going down left us with nothing else. 
    We need to move heaven and earth to get another forward.

    So why do you want Cox to do his ACL?

    • PREVIEW: Essendon

      Not long ago, the narrative surrounding Melbourne was steeped in pessimism. There was some concern among the pundits (and even some fans) that the club would arrive at the AFL’s Gather Round still winless, vulnerable to a familiar adversary in the Essendon Football Club, and facing significant scrutiny from an ever-critical media on a national stage. Things have changed.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      Steven King astutely identified the issues that had plagued the Melbourne Football Club over the past two and a half seasons when he auditioned for the newly created coaching role. The side that had claimed the 2021 premiership had become stodgy, slow-paced, and hesitant to take the initiative.

    • PREGAME: Essendon

      Gather Round is upon us and the Demons face off against the Bombers who are on a 17 game losing streak. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Gold Coast

      The Demons put four quarters of hard contested, fast running and high pressure football to knock off the ladder leaders and early premiership contenders the Gold Suns by 20 points at the MCG on Easter Sunday.

    • PODCAST: Gold Coast

      I’ll be away for the next few weeks, so Binman will be holding the fort for our podcasts covering the Suns, Bombers and Lions matches. As a result, there will be no live podcasts during this period, and we won’t be taking calls or voicemails. Binman will still be dipping into this thread to select a few questions to answer, while also combining the long-form Stats Files podcast with the Demonland Podcast for these shows. Your questions and comments are a huge part of what makes the podcast work, so please post anything you’d like to ask or say below and we’ll do our best to give you a shout-out on the show. Please try to keep each post focused on one specific topic or player to make podcast preparation a little easier. If you have multiple topics you’d like to raise, please put them in separate posts.
