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

    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

    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.

    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

    • PREVIEW: Hawthorn

      Hawthorn and Melbourne. Two teams with impressive form from last week but with seasons that are travelling on different trajectories meet in Saturday’s twilight game for what could well be the most intriguing contest of the AFL’s penultimate round. Sadly, the game has been relegated to that unappealing time slot in the weekend when Melburnians are typically preoccupied with activities other than football. It falls between the morning's shopping, afternoon sport and recreation, and Saturday night fever. A time usually reserved for relatively insignificant events but this one is not a nothingburger for either of the clubs or their fans.

    • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

    • PREGAME: Hawthorn

      The Demons return to the MCG this time as the visiting team where they get another opportunity to put a dent into a team's top 8 placing when they take on the Hawks on Saturday afternoon. Who comes in and who goes out?
