Ump 22 again

 

For whatever reason every dump kick out of our 50 is going to a Blues player 

Nah, not good enough. We are going forward and the ball is being contested and dropped to the ground where Blues are mopping it up. Zero pressure. We miss Spargo in games like this. Very very poor.

    I suspected the midfield is going to struggle today. Not going to end well if we can’t win some clean ball in stoppage.

    Umpire was just conned there.

    Where's the professionalism.

    Who was the turkey who said umps weren't the problem.

    They are a part of it.

    They are not the problem...

    We don't look like scoring tonight. We're trying to run the ball down the ground through handball and aren't slick enough. The last disposal going inside 50 is deplorable and Carlton can then get us on the counter.

    Losing a lot of contested ball as well, which isn't what we would have wanted vs Carlton.

    Game over


    I count we have gone to Fritsch 6 times this Q. He is clearly outsized

    Why not kick to JVR or Petty or Turner?!?!?!?

    WHY CANT WE MARK INSIDE 50????

    Because we have no one inside 50

    Frees 8-2. Looks a pattern.

    Mckay, Pittonet and Dekonning all with goals in wet conditions.

    You can't excuse. You just can't. Carlton have barely gotten out of second gear. That was a clinic in wet weather football.

    • PREVIEW: Essendon

      Not long ago, the narrative surrounding Melbourne was steeped in pessimism. There was some concern among the pundits (and even some fans) that the club would arrive at the AFL’s Gather Round still winless, vulnerable to a familiar adversary in the Essendon Football Club, and facing significant scrutiny from an ever-critical media on a national stage. Things have changed.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      Steven King astutely identified the issues that had plagued the Melbourne Football Club over the past two and a half seasons when he auditioned for the newly created coaching role. The side that had claimed the 2021 premiership had become stodgy, slow-paced, and hesitant to take the initiative.
