It took Yze 15 minutes to work out the game plan and tear us a new one. 

It's largely his gameplan

 

Looks like we’re relying on Maxy to be our sole ruck AND key forward this season 

 

There are massive alarm bells, no defensive pressure, no skills and being out worked

What’s happened to Windsor? I’m still waiting on my digital membership code to come through? Sounds like they’re doing me a favour not sending it through…..

Laid a late-ish combined tackle/bump on McIntosh and looks to have hurt his ribs.

something tells me Goody is going to be spending the next fortnight on defence


Setting our own players up to be crunched from those bad decisions.

And that's supposed to be our strength!

The alarming part of that was the poor footskills and basic skill errors. Laurie, May, Neale Bullen and Tracca all noticeable poor in that department. Kozzie trying to play Hollywood football in February.

 

the next concern is the lack of defensive pressure. We literally just leaked goals all over the place.

pressure more so than defence per se i would argue

the lack of effort was....strange

2/7 time score?


it’s not even a real pre season game

can we relax??

Things I’d like to see in the second half:

- Billings on the wing to see if he can earn that spot 

- Fritsch up the ground involved in play

- Laurie more midfield chances

- switches and moving to the fat side with the run rather than charging head first in to the press

  • REPORT: Port Adelaide

    Of course, it’s not the backline, you might argue and you would probably be right. It’s the boot studder (do they still have them?), the midfield, the recruiting staff, the forward line, the kicking coach, the Board, the interchange bench, the supporters, the folk at Casey, the head coach and the club psychologist  It’s all of them and all of us for having expectations that were sufficiently high to have believed three weeks ago that a restoration of the Melbourne team to a position where we might still be in contention for a finals berth when the time for the midseason bye arrived. Now let’s look at what happened over the period of time since Melbourne overwhelmed the Sydney Swans at the MCG in late May when it kicked 8.2 to 5.3 in the final quarter (and that was after scoring 3.8 to two straight goals in the second term).

  • CASEY: Essendon

    Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

  • PREGAME: Gold Coast

    The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

    The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
