GAMEDAY: Rd 09 vs Carlton

Featured Replies

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.

Terrible from Lever 

he's getting rinsed so far

5 straight as the rain gets heavier. That's just about game 


I smell learnings. 

Blues marking everything inside 50

and are kicking everything 

We mark nothin

 and have kicked nothing

 not sure how we are going to drag back FIVE GOALS in the wet especially given we have NO score whatsoever in Q1

Abyssmal start 

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: Fremantle

    The dominant storyline coming out of Round One for Saturday Night’s clash at Optus Stadium centres on the influence of the big men. The spotlight naturally falls on two elite ruckmen who, five years ago, shared the stage in Melbourne’s memorable premiership triumph.

  • NON-MFC: Round 02

    The compromised AFL fixture will get another test this week with the first lot of teams getting a bye after only two matches. Despite this Round 2 starts off with two cracking games as the Hawks host the Swans at the G on Thursday Night and then on Friday Night the Crows host the Bulldogs at Adelaide Oval. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

  • THE STATS FILES: St. Kilda

    As part of the effort to trim the runtime of the regular podcast, we’ve been looking at which segments could be reshaped without losing what makes them valuable. One segment that naturally came into focus was Binman’s Stats Files. Not because it isn’t important; quite the opposite. It’s become such a substantial and much-loved part of the show that it deserves a little room to breathe.

  • REPORT: St. Kilda

    One of the big stories of the AFL off-season was the spending spree of Melbourne’s Round 1 opponent, St Kilda. They splashed out heavily, first to retain Nasiah Wanganeen-Milera - the hero of last year’s epic come-from-behind miracle victory -turning him into a $2 million man. They then effectively took out an expensive overdraft to recruit a string of expensive players from other clubs. It was a risky investment strategy and, although it’s still early days, it certainly failed to pay off in Sunday’s season opener, with much of the glitter turning to fool’s gold.

  • POSTGAME: St. Kilda

    Never in doubt!!! In Steven King’s first game at the helm of the Melbourne Football Club, the Dees outlasted Saints in a wild, momentum-swinging thriller at the MCG, running out 13-point winners.
