some of our handballing has been retarded tonight.

Please don't use offensive terms.

 

tackling has been immense in the last

Well done boys


crows becoming one of my most disliked teams because of the home town umpiring

hope they finish bottom 4

 

A brilliant win. Sensational team game against the [censored] umps and off a 5 day break 

Scheduling, plus (in retrospect) poor player management, almost cost us


Out on our feet. Lots of errors late in this quarter.  Incredible effort to win 2 games on the road in Adelaide in 5 days.

Top of the ladder.   

Let’s focus on the positives. Yes we didn’t kick a goal in the last but tackling pressure was great. They looked spent from the start and I would have given my left nut to leave Adelaide with the 2 wins prior to the games.

Not really. Lots of passengers !!! 

Your wrong you see your way I see mine

Won it. Looked out on our feet in the last but held on despite them getting a great ride from the umpires. 
 

2 games in 6 days away, 2 wins - go the [censored] Dees!

Good win without playing all that well - Adelaide are a very ordinary footy team imo 


Great to get the win.  We could improve if we stuck the tackles, though. We provided great pressure but we often let them out of tackles, instead of getting a htb free or a ball up.

Remember when it used to take 6 years to get two wins over there.

That's pretty generous of you, I'll keep mine, thanks. 

 

Bloody wrapped. Two away wins in Adelaide. These two wins are worth their weight in gold come the end of the season.

  • 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.
