Haha this will either sail through the middle or go nowhere near it

such is max 

Such is Max 🤷‍♂️

WHAT A GOAL 🔥

Our midfield has been quiet and easily bested by Port tonight. Hopefully they make amends this qtr with some clearances and some of our quieter guys like JVR Fritter and Kozi get involved. We’ll need them because Port aren’t going anywhere and have generally looked dangerous and more consistent than us. 

We can do it!! 

How are we still in this!?

As good as that goal was it was also frustrating, has to become max"s norm. 

Im frustrated when he misses not when he slots it after the siren in a tight game against a good opponent! 

If Max, Tracc and Clarry can bring their 'A' game this quarter and we stop fumbling we've got a chance to pinch one here.


Sydney ran all over us in the last a few weeks ago. You'd think that would be front of mind for the team here - not letting that happen again.

 

Should be 3-4 goals down. Get Kozzie in the middle immediately.

Roo started to hit the packs hard in the second half of that quarter- much better.

But it's not really achieving much.

Get Kozzie around the ball

We've been poor yet we're down by 4 points. The opportunity is there, Port have thrown everything at us. Give them the old sucker punch Demons! 

Couldn’t play on and hook it as usual. Maybe he needs to change to this style of goal kicking?

We gotta drive this one like we stole it


50 inside fifties to 32

no idea how we are in touch

Given the team we have out there, newbies, crocks and kids in what is already a makeshift backline, plus an underdone Petty, (also missing Brayshaw ....), they're doing OK against a top 4 team away.

clarry doesn’t look right. hope it’s just his finger. 

good to see jvr running and jumping now tho… love to see him get into it. 

Get Billings off for Woey now.

Are the Port crowd actually human?

We can win this with one good quarter if we run hard and pressure like mad.

Whats better than a goal in the last minute of a quarter, two goals in the last minute of a quarter.

Bang bang 

We lost by four points last time

 

Don't let it be an Omen.

Disagree, it's bringing the ball to ground and not letting Aliir and Esava take the intercept marks.

  • 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.
