GAMEDAY: Rd 02 vs Hawthorn

Featured Replies

May went down right in front of me, and from my vantage looked like ribs. He looked very, very sore.

Personally I think we are playing terrible football.   Hawthorn are shirt. And we let them get close 

Sam Mitchell’s gameplan is play ugly, play dirty

reckon having wizard as a nickname is a hinderance rather than a help coming into AFL footy. You need to earn a nickname like that.

Didn't do Jeff Farmer any harm.

 

Good half. Smashing clearances and contested ball. Setting up incredibly well behind the ball, so much that the Hawks can't even move it. 

Scores from stoppage healthy.

He was definitely down for quite awhile. Didn’t look good 😬

Hawks came out hard in that quarter. Our defence stood up really well. Need our mids to get back to basics.


Went from way ahead on most stats at quarter time to near even.

Lucky that the Hawks couldn't put any scoreboard pressure on.

Need a better third quarter

No, it's playing to a plan when you don't have the cattle you make sure the opposition don't score.

Lower the eyes going forward. Maybe have a defensive forward on Sicily, or even a decoy forward to try and drag him away from the ball.

A dollar for every time commentator said Hawks may win the quarter.

Ok let's go back to plan A bomb it in, because that worked well the last 2 years.

Anyone watching at home; any updates on May? 

In a lot of pain, no plan of being subbed just yet.

I've just watched the replay on Kayo, but haven't been following the half time updates.

It looked like rib area was hit and that's where he grabbed, but the impact seemed a bit broad (shin/leg against side of body) rather than sharp (ie knee point directly digging in).

I'm not a doctor or biomechanist but it looked more like a heavy collision than sharp rib impact. Hopefully bad bruising or stitch from impact rather than anything more serious?

He looked a lot better when resting on the bench.

Broken ribs ? Punctured lung even worse?

Only 1 goal that quarter.  Chandler and Brown not doing a lot

Agree re Brown.  Not reading it as well this week? 

Chandler's brought immense pressure around the arc though imv.

For a small fella he does struggle to get away from his opponent on the receive at times and capatilise which is a tad worrying.  Not easy at this level of course.  Needs a bit more strength through legs & core maybe?

    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.

  • PREVIEW: Gold Coast

    Melbourne’s slow starts have been a troubling theme for a while. Against the Suns, they started slowly in both of their games, they trailed by 5.7.37 to 0.1.1 at quarter time at Peoples First Stadium in Round 16. This season, the story has remained the same and if the Demons fail to shake off this issue against the unbeaten Gold Coast Suns, they will be in serious danger of capitulating once again in their Easter Sunday showdown.
