Geez tough going out there. 

We’ve been better moving forward tonight, if we can convert in the second half we’ll win this. Have been happy with petty taking some big marks, looks like he’s finding some confidence.

    Not a game for the purists

    defensively excellent. neither Hawkins or Cameron a factor. tackling ferocious

    great to see petty clunking them. And JVR. now just need to convert

    we have this game on our terms so i'm confident

    come on dees. beat this sh*t house team and make my weekend.

    Has a finals type feel. Pressure and perceived pressure feels huge.

    Feels like an almost game for us. clean up some of the disposals in the front half and we’ll run over the top.

    Reckon Geelong must feel lucky they are not 4 or 5 goals down, I hope we don't regret all these missed opportunities.

    I'll say it again...

    Tracc up forward for 10 or 15

    Kozzy into the middle for same.

    Sub Billings for Laurie

    2nd half of that quarter was all about exhaustion. Our defensive spread is a thing of beauty, but after endless gut running and no stoppages neither team has any fuel left to convert. 

    Great to see JVR and Petty clunking marks.

    ANB and Langdon - astonishing amount of running.

    It's a return to some form though

    Taken some rippers. Petty of old.

    Improved game from Petty. His execution with passes is letting him down, but he’s making the right decisions, and is marking strongly. Definitely he’s best game this year. 
     

    Billings is killing us. He’s a coach killer - that’s for sure. Hopefully Hunter gets back soon, he is a far better fit for us.

    Like this a lot 🔥

    We are doing so much right but not cashing in. The fear from here is that the Cats are capable of putting us away in a quarter whereas we don't have that burst in our arsenal

    I’m not a fan of this new game style. 3-2 goals in a half is not pretty. 

    We look tentative and safe. If we don’t take on the game we will get smacked in the 2nd half.

     


    Comedy of goal kicking from both sides. Either side could be 4 goals in front at this point.

    Definitely needed more reward for effort. As we tire they will likely hurt us more on transition 

    1st half

    The good ✅running. Defence.  Structure.  

    👏Petty.  McVee. May. Lever. Sparrow. Lingers  

     

    The bad😡goalkicking is TERRIBLE. JVR. PICKETT. BILLINGS. JVR. GAWN. All are TERRIBLE. 


    🤨Billings 🤨Chandler 🤨

     🤢Trac. Fumbles and handballs.  One kick in a half.  More intensity. Less meatballs!!!

    What about Woewodin in the wing?

    Oliver not playing fluently. But still 14 possessions. As many as anyone

    • PREGAME: Western Bulldogs

      With only 3 games to go, all against Top 8 fancies, the Demons face a daunting task as they return to the MCG when they play the Western Bulldogs. Who comes in and who goes out?

      The Demons return to town fresh off a thumping win over the back-to-back wooden spooners, the West Coast Eagles, played in front of a sparse crowd at Marvel Stadium, the same venue that hosted last week's heartbreaking loss.

    • PREVIEW: West Coast

      It was bad enough that the Melbourne Football Club created yet another humiliating scenario inside its wretched season at Marvel Stadium last Sunday, but the final insult is that it has been commanded to return to the scene of the crime to inflict further punishment on its fans this week. Incidentally, if this match preview, of a game that promises to be one of the most unattractive fixtures in the history of the game, happens to cut out of your computer screen three quarters of the way through, it’s no coincidence. I’ll be mirroring the Demons’ lacklustre effort against St Kilda from last Sunday when they conceded the largest last quarter turnaround for victory in the history of the game.

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.
