Really not looking forward to the pies game next week now. They’re missing half their list and we’re gonna let them walk all over us going off today’s performance. Sickening.. 

 

The whole club needs a serious shake up.

We need a very big re-build, players not willing to stick around for it can go elsewhere. As much as I love Max, his time as captain needs to come to an end. 

We need new leadership. From the Pres & CEO, to the coach captain and players.

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

They have lost their passion and now skills.

No hunger.

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

Yep it's the umps fault

What hope have you got when we do not have a forward. Fritta runs away from the ball. Would not have a bruise on him. Turner hasn't touched it but has a goal. For Freo. Petty is ordinary at moment. McAdam. Is he playing. Then you throw in our skill level by Rivers, Sparrow and Salem and lack of endeavor from Windsor and Huinter all adds up to us being a middle-ranged side. Long season ahead demonlanders.

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

Maybe not the list per se 🤔 

I don't mean to be alarmist, but put a fork in us WE ARE DONE!

Playing 20 v 23, nothing in the cupboard. Hunter, McAdam, Petty, miles off the level.  

Can't kick, can't run, can't mark. 

AMW must play for the next month at least to see if there's something there.

Have you watched Casey lately.

We lost to Coburg yesterday... a team that is winless this year and has maybe won five games in the last three years

Down 28 in contested possessions. Back to the days of being non competitive. Horrible. 


Is this called zone defence or no defence? Why are all of our players 20-40 metres away from their players who can then play kick to kick at will????? This is the worst performance since the Neeld era. Skills totally lacking. Jogging around, half trying. An absolute thrashing by a second rate team. 

I think I might petition to have no Binman on the pod this week because I just can’t put up with 2 hours of this isn’t our midfield’s fault.

Or is it killing-coach stuff ?? 

Look at the players on our list .

There are so many we don't play.

Not saying we should but why are we paying them?

May not be a bad thing. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Got to be the weakest, most embarrassing, gutless and shameful half of football I’ve seen from this team. The players and coaches should be ashamed of themselves. 
Haha hoping for a better second half! 

Mini rebuild required at the club. We're not contending this year with this list and this game style. We've lost whatever identity and brand we had, and the players have gone into preservation mode as a result. The next wave coming through in Sparrow, Bowey etc have not come on, and as the old core is now on the slide, there's no one picking up the slack to make us competitive.

It's sad that Gawn and May will retire in the coming years battling away in an uncompetitive team.

Your Mum taught you well !


Since the missed HTB 15 metres out for ANB in the 1st, momentum changed, and have turned to 💩looks a training drill out there.

Agree. Heads should have rolled after eagles disaster.

But we don't have the players.

The question is why?

 

 

Worst half of footy since the 2020 Cairns game against Sydney. If you want to count that game. Maybe the worst since the 2018 prelim.

Sadly this team ain’t it. Oliver is doing well just to be playing, but his lack of preparation is starting to show. Just a player at the moment, no star. Petracca can’t do it all. Viney is getting on. Windsor needs a rest. Then we have Petty and Turner as our “twin towers”. lol. Disappointing because all it takes is Sydney to be a little bit off one night in September and it’s anyone else’s flag this year. But we are playing like porridge too often. Brisbane was a disaster, West Coast did it too easy, and now this?!? 

We should only really be 4 goals down though. Nice mark Amiss lol. [censored] off 22 and friends. 

This is a coaching problem imo. New game style doesn't suit our team. It's too easy to play against.
How can professional coaches not see this?
3 goals in a half, in perfect conditions. 16 scoring shots to 6!!
It's not working!!!!

  • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

    The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

  • CASEY: Brisbane

    The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

    The Demons lacked some polish but showed a lot of heart and took it right up to the Bulldogs in an attempt to spoil their finals hopes ultimately going down by a goal at the MCG.
