Did Marlion hit him in the guts or the hand?

Guts

 

Would love to see Cripps get called for throwing as much as Oliver.

On the plus side Clarry's hand and touch looking much better.

Yep, he’s been very sharp early.

He’s a much better version when the hands are firing

    Need more from our mids. Trac has started poorly, a couple of poor turn overs from Oliver too.

    Do we look as putrid on telly as we do at the ground. Where is our pressure? Our skills? 

    Petracca is having another mere, very ordinary season so far.

    Why? We have midfield names that should strike fear. Instead we're constantly on the defensive. I think it's part of the gameplan but it's garbage and will fail in finals again.

    You gotta ride the waves of the game. We will win by 40+. Tigers giving it everything after being embarrassed

    Very much so.  Quite common after a buy early on but the question is can they clean things up AND get some run and finish happening.

    I think Oliver's hand is not fully healed yet. You can see he is not as clean on ground ball gets.

    Needs to lift. Should kick but handballs too players under pressure. Too soft in the contest right now. Needs 240 volts.  

    I know it's early and we've missed a few but we have to be better than this. That unpressured kick from Viney straight to a tigers player was strange. We seen to be making quite a few unforced errors. Our backline as usual has been good but it's our midfielders not dominating again. We look lacking in confidence and intensity somewhat.

    Marlon Pickett is a criminal and shouldn't be allowed an AFL contract. Literal convicted criminal.

    And currently on bail for serious offences. 

    Lot of decent first efforts but then we have a lil rest and they sprint forward.

    I would really love if we could string together some chains and lift the level of footy, because it's not that enjoyable watching us butchering the ball against a weak side.

    Pulling out of marking contests, not sticking tackles, thought I caught a glimpse of him on the bench with trainers/doctors inspecting his hand


    These skills are simply putrid

    • GAMEDAY: Geelong

      It's Game Day, and reinforcements are finally arriving for the Demons—but will it be too little, too late? They're heading down the freeway to face a Cats side returning home to their fortress after two straight losses, desperate to reignite their own season. Can the Demons breathe new life into their campaign, or will it slip even further from their grasp?

    • PREVIEW: Geelong

      "It's officially time for some alarm bells. I'm concerned about the lack of impact from their best players." This comment about one of the teams contesting this Friday night’s game came earlier in the week from a so-called expert radio commentator by the name of Kane Cornes. He wasn’t referring to the Melbourne Football Club but rather, this week’s home side, Geelong.The Cats are purring along with 1 win and 2 defeats and a percentage of 126.2 (courtesy of a big win at GMHBA Stadium in Round 1 vs Fremantle) which is one win more than Melbourne and double the percentage so I guess that, in the case of the Demons, its not just alarm bells, but distress signals. But don’t rely on me. Listen to Cornes who said this week about Melbourne:- “They can’t run. If you can’t run at speed and get out of the contest then you’re in trouble.

    • NON-MFC: Round 04

      Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit.
      Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

    • CASEY: Gold Coast

      For a brief period of time in the early afternoon of yesterday, the Casey Demons occupied top place on the Smithy’s VFL table. This was only made possible by virtue of the fact that the team was the only one in this crazy competition to have played twice and it’s 1½ wins gave it an unassailable lead on the other 20 teams, some of who had yet to play a game.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      In my all-time nightmare game, the team is so ill-disciplined that it concedes its first two goals with the courtesy of not one, but two, fifty metre penalties while opening its own scoring with four behinds in a row and losing a talented youngster with good decision-making skills and a lethal left foot kick, subbed off in the first quarter with what looks like a bad knee injury.
