Conceded 7 goals in a row. 

and this is against a supposed rebuilding side missing its entire starting midfield and #1 forward

not great


Been impressed with Billings. Clean on hands, pretty accurate inside 50 and has stood up well in tackles.

Getting killed on the turnover

About to say the same thing.

Need to clean up the ball movement.

These turnovers are yuck - unfortunately this team continues to really struggle with physical pressure 

 

Richmond just cleaner by foot, they are controlling the ball.

I think you need to look at it in presepective though. Lot of young kids and are not as clean as the Tigers on the turnover.


Well we looked good for about 15 minutes before Richmond showed up. 

 

No idea why we didn't have a crack at Jacob Koschitzke in the trade period either

    Sparrow kick going inside 50 leads to a turnover and they go back up the other end with a few uncontested kicks - that’s been the story of this game since about 15 mins into the first qtr

    Getting slaughtered on the transition once again.

    Nothing has changed.

    Watching on TV. Could see Trac on his haunches and looking a little bit uncomfortable early in this 2nd term and haven’t seen him since.
     

    Can anyone at the game see him?

     

    Update: He has come back on around 24:00 and moving fine

    Update


    Issue looks to be 2 way running.  We are not covering their players but instead running off into space.  A turnover and we are caught out.

    I've gone from thinking we're going to win the premiership to this is just a prac match

    lol why am i wasting my Sunday on this. 

     

    Gee some flaky defending. Howes looks a very easy player to hassle out of the contest. 

    Obviously time to get them in the sheds at 2/7 time for a re-think, re-calculation and a re-set. Momentum is king.

    • 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.

      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.
