JEFFO 2!

 

What a like about Jeffo, he looks like a young man on ground, not a kid. He is bigger and more confident. 

 

JEFFO threads the eye of the needle! Drop punt the choice of true professionals.

Jefferson staking a claim. Had some much better games in recent times. Be a big call to play him against the Lions but he must be close. His body of work is better than Kynan Brown's with regard to selection criteria.

This is like watching under 10's football..

Was just going to post how much I’m liking the this game day thread due to the lack of insulting behaviour. Then I read this. 


I wonder when posters say things like "petty/oliver/fritta etc.) need to go back to the 2nds", if they have any idea that there is zero talent in the ressies ready to replace them?

So you think it's top standard do you and you are right it is insulting to under 10's.

Started the quarter playing great footy then ended up hopeless. 
 

Awful down field free by McAdam to concede a goal, a few dreadful Schache moments and Laurie invisible in the middle.

Should’ve dug in and had a lead or at least be right with North

One team with great accuracy able to find targets at will while Casey continually turn it over.

Yep skills are pretty ordinary in general so far.  Been costly too.

At least three goals directly after sloppy turnovers in that quarter.

Our finish coming inside (eg;  Billings and Moniz) was bog ordinary.

Then you had Shack & Woe going up in a 2 v 1 contest under a bombed ball.  Surely one of them (Woe!?) would recognise it be more sensible to hang off and potentially crumb?

Woe potentially injured out of that.

Where / who are they learning this rubbish forward play from?

Coach killing stuff.

You have a way with words 3165, then complain about how others come back at you. 
 

Have you ever, thought or been told, that your communication style is off putting? 
 

if not, let me be the first…. 

Schache has been very disappointing. It’s not likely but can we delist McAdam, Billings and Laurie please.  Taking up list spots !!

Yes its dire. Billings, Fullarton, AMW, McAdam, Laurie should all be knocking on the door but are all scratchy at best.

Jeffo has had some good moments and as KC said, Smacca has had some X factor moments too. 
 

I would like to see more of Sestan, the kid could be very good.

I only come back when people don't say why I'm wrong try that for a change it's called discussing a topic as for being off putting don't care don't read or reply if it upsets you if you do reply bring something to the table to talk about.

Scores?

Edited by demon3165

It was your style of communication I pointed out. Never said you are wrong! But in this case the standard of football is much higher than under 10’s. 
 

But, to be fair to you………….. The standard of this game isn’t exciting me much either. 
 

See what I just did here and pointed out???

Instead of targeting a key fwd in the trade period, we elected to recruit billings and mcadam. We also gave contract extensions to schache and Laurie. All 4 are struggling in the vfl and is a big reason why we are struggling this year.

 please keep the game comments coming,  not the dribble

  • REPORT: Geelong

    I was disappointed to hear Goody say at his post match presser after the team’s 39 point defeat against Geelong that "we're getting high quality entry, just poor execution" because Melbourne’s problems extend far beyond that after its 0 - 4 start to the 2025 football season. There are clearly problems with poor execution, some of which were evident well before the current season and were in play when the Demons met the Cats in early May last year and beat them in a near top-of-the-table clash that saw both sides sitting comfortably in the top four after round eight. Since that game, the Demons’ performances have been positively Third World with only five wins in 19 games with a no longer majestic midfield and a dysfunctional forward line that has become too easy for opposing coaches to counter. This is an area of their game that is currently being played out as if they were all completely panic-stricken.

  • PREGAME: Essendon

    Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

  • NON-MFC: Round 04

    Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

  • POSTGAME: Geelong

    The Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, falling to 0–4 after a more spirited showing against the Cats at Kardinia Park. Despite the improved effort, they went down by 39 points, and the road ahead is looking increasingly grim.
