GAMEDAY: Rd 04 vs Adelaide

Solid half of footy.  We have been quite fumble at times, so a bit to tidy up.  Great to see McVee in great form at times.  
 

Biggest frustration that half for me was Rivers kicking.  Missed a short one that gave up a goal which happens.  The real frustration is when he kicks long and it goes super high and takes for ever to get there.  Kick it long, fast and flat and it becomes a weapon.

I think he does it on purpose to allow a player to run into the kick and create a contest.

I love Riv, but I think his short disposal game can be questionable at times 

I think he just makes overly aggressive decisions. Tommy McDonald did the same thing when he was around the same age. It's an education thing not a skill thing I think.

I think we have largely been poor except for a handful of players and where in front, will definitely take that. If we can get a more even spread across the players in the second half we should get the win.

Kozzie gone at least a week for that hit imo.

 

 

Yep he's in trouble.

He's letting the team down with that stuff. 

Needs to stop asap.

Clayton's having a bad night, hope he can lift in the next half, billings needs to improve his disposal efficiency is pretty poor.  he is not the only one, but two of his kicks could easily have been goals. Which ever one cannot lift early in the 3rd quarter probably needs to be sub'd off. I dont understand this umpiring crows players are tackled and do 360 turns before getting rid of the ball or dropping it an nothing. we have one player stripped of the ball seconds after getting it and its dropping the ball. inconsistency in their calling of holding the ball and dropping the ball is getting ridiculous.

That was accidental mate, you've got to be kidding.

If you don’t think they will give him a week for that then you haven’t been paying attention, I don’t agree with it but he will get a week I would be shocked if he doesn’t

Plenty to like. Chandler's goalkicking.

Petracca's game.

Petty competitive.

McVee is such a gun.

TMac playing his role.

Kozzie making an impact.

Dislikes: Billings seems to hear footsteps. 

Howes seems overawed.

Three talls with Petty, JvR and BBB seems one too many.

Dunstall actually sticking up for Kozzies hit/bump. The world has gone completely mad.

Why does he keep putting himself in these situations?

A good question BBP. There’s physical then there’s dirty.

Leadership should be bringing it up with him. He’s such a valuable player for us, he can’t help us if he continually gets suspended.

Minimum of two weeks for Koz , and may even be as high as 4 , being intentional, head high and having priors.

Silly boy

I’ve been paying attention and it looked ok to me 

If one of their duffers did that I wouldn’t be howling for a suspension

Spot on

When Windsor does something, he has impact. His touch forcing the ball over the boundary line in the back pocket stopping a crom player running into an open was smart and impactful. 
 

his one arm handed grab of the ball at full pace on the wing moving forward was another special moment. 
 

the kid has the goods and oozes class. Imagine when he learns to get the ball more often….

Geez, when was the last time you saw the MRO results? It’ll be 1 week max just like King.

    HEAVEN OR HELL by The Oracle

    Clashes between Melbourne and St Kilda are often described as battles between the forces of heaven and hell. However, based on recent performances, it’s hard to get excited about the forthcoming match between these two sides. It would be fair to say that, at the moment, both of these teams are in the doldrums. The Demons have become the competition’s slow starters while the Saints are not only slow to begin, they’re not doing much of a job finishing off their games either. About the only th

    THE BLOW by Whispering Jack

    Narrm’s finals prospects took a crushing blow after the team’s insipid performance at Optus Stadium against a confident Waaljit Marawar in the first of its Doug Nicholls Round outings for 2024.  I use the description “crushing blow” advisedly because, although the season is not yet at it’s halfway mark, the Demons have now failed abysmally in two of their games against teams currently occupying bottom eight places on the ladder.  The manner in which these losing games were played out w

    HALF FULL by KC from Casey

    It was a case of the Casey Demons going into a game with a glass half full in their match up against the Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields on Saturday. As the list of injured and unavailable AFL and VFL listed players continues to grow and with Melbourne taking all three emergencies to Perth for the weekend on a “just in case” basis, its little brother was always destined to struggle. Casey was left with only eight AFL listed players from who to select their team but only two - an out-of-form

    POSTGAME: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    Many warned that this was a danger game and the Demons were totally outclassed all game by a young Eagles team at Optus Stadium in Perth as they were defeated by 35 points.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons have returned to the site of their drought breaking Premiership to take on the West Coast Eagles in what could very well be a danger game for Narrm at Optus Stadium. A win and a percentage boost will keep the Dees in top four contention whilst a loss will cast doubt on the Dees flag credentials and bring them back to the pack fighting for a spot in the 8 as we fast approach the halfway point of the season.

    WARNING by William from Waalitj

    As a long term resident of Waalitj Marawar, I am moved to warn my fellow Narrm fans that a  danger game awaits. The locals are no longer the easybeats who stumbled, fumbled and bumbled their way to the good fortune of gathering the number one draft pick and a generational player in Harley Reid last year. They are definitely better than they were then.   Young Harley has already proven his worth with some stellar performances for a first year kid playing among men. He’s taken hangers, k
