This is the most pathetic forward 50 display I’ve ever seen.

Billings - 4 touches

Fritsch - 3 touches

Petty - 1 touch

Pickett - 1 touch

JVR - 7 touches and not one in our 50

Inside 50s - 28 to 20 our way, and not a single score from any of them.


The ball is being walked out. Everyone else is pulling their weight. No matter how good your midfield and defence is you can’t counter the ball being rebounded out so quickly.

It ain’t the forwards mate. The delivery in is bordering u15s. Not much a forward can do when it’s kicked on top of their heads. 

 

Collingwood.   Absolutely shirting the bed when contemplating KB game

@TheWiz

agreed.  This is the most pathetic forward 50 display I’ve ever seen.

Billings - 4 touches

Fritsch - 3 touches

Petty - 1 touch

Pickett - 1 touch

Chandler - 4 touches. 

zero goals

 Blues defenders are destroying us

We just don’t have an in form midfielder unfortunately 

We have a one paced midfield full stop a crash and bang one, we need speed in it.

Well a couple of Carlton fans just got engaged on the big screen while Love Story by Taylor Swift was playing. 
So…. Ummm… yeah 

one can only hope they do not procreate

Tall forwards getting outnumbered, that’s a work rate problem from our small forwards.

Our delivery is pretty poor inside 50.

Umps aren’t great, but they aren’t the cause of our problems. How about moving the ball aggressively?

Chandler a ghost

umpiring is HORRENDOUS 🤢🤢🤢🤢🤢🤢. So inconsistent!!! Favouring Carlton unbelievably

Good summary.

I said our talls in our fwd line was an unknown issue pregame. And Turner, Petty and Jvr have not scored .

Sadly Fritta and Kozzie have been at least just as bad.

Chin and Billings need a rest. Sub Chin off... he must be injured.

Sparrow played a good 2 nd quarter. Tracca our forward.

Hard to really name other good players tonight.

A lot of panic out there with some really poor decisions and it really looks like the same team against the lions.

I know there is no reason but every time this club has a big win our talks a player up the next week seems to be a shocker.

Are our sights too low. Do we seem too content after beating cats?

I know it sounds silly but seems to be a recurring theme. 

Let's just hope we can finish with a bit more dignity and not allow them to kick another fifty points to get to one hundred.

Hunker down after tonight. Drop three or four players and come back better next week's.

I know we'd still be losing if umps didn't give away so many frees but it's still a really poor effort from them tonight. Just really really poor.

Percentage counts. If they weren't so biased with 11 to 3 we would be three goals down.

I actually wish the club would cop a fine and just call tonight out as a rubbish effort.

Can't blame the forwards when we can't kick to advantage, even our first goal was not to trac's advantage 


Every week our midfield is beaten too easily in the contest! It’s one thing to focus on sling shot footy for scoring efficiency, but is another to be beaten too easily in this area when the good teams manufacture goals with top KPP forwards. Viney, Petracca and Oliver are too good to work against their strengths. 
 

Now about a game plan that has contested footy and slingshot goal efficiency! The two can exist. MacQualter needs to find the balance,

He can run but just kicks the ball in the air like Sparrow.

He's not first on line mate. Not tonight by a long way and that's saying something.

Still think we'll make game of this. It's been a [censored] show thus far, but we'll get to see what our leaders are made of in the second half. 

I just wished we didn't have to make up so much ground. We have been putrid and the umpiring hasn't helped. Carlton need to win and are doing everything right to make us pay. I'm hoping the Dees come out with some fire power!

Not buying that. Forwards ground ball fumbles are prolific.

Two weeks in a row where we’ve managed just 3 goals in a half, except we’ve been punished this week.

We need to address our scoring issues if we want to dream of winning a final this year.

Our only hope is that Carlton fade badly after half time and we get a second wind after long rotations of players in the first half. 

Really need an extra goal before half time to aid the comeback, but it is what it is.

Translation pls! 


Swallow murdered 3 inside 50's, didn't see him look and don't think he was under the pressure he thought he was. Pickett also a ghost.

One could hope....

 

4th consecutive game we've kicked 3 goals or less in the first half.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
