GAMEDAY: Rd 05 vs Brisbane

Kolt hasn’t done a lot but at least is energetic and attacks the contest. Some of the others could follow his example e.g Billings

* violence apparently doesn’t solve anything. I might find out later.

Don't recommend it IHW. Even if you get bail before I'm back in Mt Eliza.

Move Petty back & T Mac forward. Worth a try at least.

Petty's a liability mate

 

In other news Salo just cannot stay on the park for long enough. It’s probably a 8-10 weeks hamstring.

Umpires gave one goal to Brisbane. Our Defender gave them 2 more, see Howes turnover and May's 50m penalty.

Shaping up to be our worst  performance since the Port loss in 2020 at the Gabba.

Have to agree.

Well he's two disposals above Bbb. .Fritta and Petty the latter who has had zero touches.

Petty no touches in a half.....hmmm.

Not sure why he thought his [censored] poor effort chasing that ball to the boundary was so funny.

Maybe we should have taken the offer from crows 

Days like this is what makes you wonder how do the coaches prepare a team for this type of match? 7 day rest and we look like we didn't train during the week.


Gotta say so far Joey Montagna is 1000000000000000% on the money sadly

Too many passengers, other posters have named them. Worst half of football I can remember. Pathetic. Maybe we should consider moving our home games to the Adelaide Oval. This supposed home ground of ours holds absolutely no fear for anyone. Glad I got sick and couldnt go.

If he hasn't been extended by the end of July, consider him gone I think.

The TAB has the line at 26.5pts so if we can get the final result under 4 goals then the night won’t be a complete disaster and we’ve salvaged a bit of percentage.

Show some fight for a bloke playing his first game FFS

Missing Kosi badly. Could spark our midfield right now. 

I hear you Jaded but that's all on him. Thanks Mr elevated elbows. I love your skills but your agro needs to go. What good are you if your suspended every month?

Godspeed

Well at least the Haymes paint all the goals video will be short maybe they can skip it this week

Any ideas coming out of the coaches box this evening? have not seen any positive moves they might have made. 

How about swapping petty and Tmac for a quarter? we might get a bit more out of Petty at least.

Have to try something.  T-Mac swap might work.

JVR plays mostly ruck.  Max goes forward.

What to do with Billings & BBB.  Both need to lift big time.

Same with mid field.

Really missing Kozzy's class,  pressure including his occasional stints in the middle.

A few are still in form but too many are flat as a tack.

The ball also hasn't bounced our way alot tonight 

The glaring ump error against Clarry was a shocker.

Somehow need to free Tracc up.  I'd be playing him forward for a stint early this quarter.

Kolt in the middle for a while when Tracc is forward and see if he can spark something maybe.  Too soon?


Why are playing scared and soft footy. 
 

Lions are like Clubber Lang. Hungry 

 

Time to stand up Dees and fight  

 

 

Ok glad I didn’t watch much of that qtr.

It may be self-punishment but I’ll watch after half time to see if we’re actually going to do/change anything.

 Midfield need to pick up. Take marks. Run the lions ragged. Kick lots of goals 

 

What in the world is the reason we have not won a centre clearance for so long.

Not just this game

  • PODCAST: Gold Coast

    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.
