Contested possession - Freo +28!!

stoppages Freo +7 (5-12) 

forward turnovers  dees 7 score nil 

forward turnovers Freo 13 goals 8 

Hunter - 2 missed tackles weak  

Petty is nothing  can’t mark can’t tackle 

Turner gives nothing  out marked and out run by defenders 

Sparrow  Rivers fumbles 

Sparrow on Young  young giving him a bath 

Trac  30 metre angle - left foot snaps wtf !!! Use right foot 

Freo  kick run mark skills 😡😡

Best players  NIL

OLIVER ZERO CONTESTED POSSESSIONS IN A HALF OF FOOTY

VINEY WITH ONE

WHAT HAS HAPPENED TO THIS MIDFIELD?!

It has been run into the ground by a severe lack of depth and quality rotations. Our recruiting has been diabolical.

The Goodwin gameplan has severely under valued speed and transition on top so we are now overly reliant on centre breaks and dominance at half back.

This midfield implosion has been in the making for at least 2 yrs.

 

Not really surprised after the eagles game.

Oliver is a shadow of his old self.

Tracca has been quiet this year too.

Sparrow is lucky to get games.

And then there is our fwd line.

We don't have one. 

We are shot and we have few coming up through the ranks.

Our dominance is well and truly over.

It's back to the dark old days.

Or at least mediocrity.

Petty has become a liability 

Soooooo bad

U dont say???

 

Where are the clowns who find every excuse under the sun for our poor performances this season. I want to hear the excuses for this rubbish.


Two Freo players hold the ball and effectively tackle each other Nibbles tackles them. No holding the ball. WTF???

Didn’t we have a 51 point comeback with Austin back in the day haha, we’re gonna need exactly that to win and restrict them the nil.

Go dees! Gotta laugh because I feel like crying. This isn’t system adjustment stuff, this is just sad. 

Except for the first 5 minutes, they are making us look amateurs...

Freo pressure and system totally killing us, easily moving end to end and blocking all exits. 

No pressure or even fight around contest, unlike free around the contest.  

Pity any dees supporters that flew up the watch. 


Worst first half since 2018 prelim. 3rd grossly uncompetitive display this season. WTF is going on?

- Angus Brayshaw.

I don't have anything nice to say so I'm not saying anything at all.

absolutely terrible effort, while max is getting the tap out it is going to the opposition and they are clearing the ball, he need to get the ball to our players. when it goes the freo players out of the ruck, our midfield is not putting pressure on them. why they hell do we not man up they are running rings around us with this stupid zone game we play. collingwood and north must be loving this.


Heads will roll for this performance. Something is seriously wrong with this club. West coast, now this. Need to step back and rethink the list

Not trading Petty to Adelaide is one of our bigger list mistakes in a long time

We would be lucky to get a bag of old marbles for him .

One disposal for a half.

No marbles.

Edited by leave it to deever

In reality ...selling the game is NOT the real issue.

Getting thumped is..

We play like yoyos 

Team is very over-rated imo... sorry to say.

Nice the lads have a good mate in  Simon

Kum by ya ...

Go Dees ( back to the airport....just go home..... youre obvious not interested)

 

This is coach-killing stuff.

  • POSTGAME: Carlton

    A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.

  • PREVIEW: Carlton

    Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.
