Just saw vision of the Lever throw call, freo player wraps his arm around Lever's neck just before and it's completely missed and Melbourne are penalised. Vision makes it a shocking umpiring miss.

    And don’t mention the clearances. According to Binman they’re a irrelevant stat.

    In what has been a very disappointing half of footy 2 positives stood out to me.

    Windsor is a winner. He only knows how to win.

    And JVR is going to be the best tall forward we’ve had in 15 years.

    How can every other team shark taps and we can’t??

    do we do no research into other teams?

    My thoughts exactly. Teams can go in with no rucks against us and win a clearance. We have no ruck and cannot get near it. 

    But Oliver and Viney badly need a rocket.

    Because it’s hard to learn to shark taps in two weeks when you’ve been used to having the best ruckman of the modern era at your disposal for years. 
     

    The ruck contests aren’t the issue. Our mids doing nothing to defend the ball drop is the issue.

    He's a gun.

    Hopefully won't be rucking all the time.

    I know we are getting obilterated in the ruck but is there any chance our mids can play goalside ffs.

    Goalside at clearances is it much to ask for, on their shoulder.

    Also stick a [censored] tackle.

     

    Yep, just stop the the clearances where Freo walk it out. Go defensive until the Dees can even the contest. 


    Putting that display not on Goody's non ruck selection call, but instead on our midfielders who have totally outworked. 

    Need a huge lift out of Viney, Rivers, Kozzy and ANB

    At half time of the Alice game I thought Freo couldn’t play any better and we couldn’t play any worse. They got better, we got worse.

    Definitely the same vibes about this game aside from Freo’s inaccuracy. Will be interesting to see if we can make some inroads in the second half or just let the game get out of control per round 12.

    We’re definitely playing with one hand tied  behind our back with the ruck and clearance issue.

    Bedford by a fair margin for mine.  He has a weapon which Chin does not.

    Chin only has manic follow up pressure (chasing tail) and second efforts which sometimes works and looks good when it comes off.

    Bedford brings the wheels plus the latter.

    I was being somewhat facetious 🙂

    Bedford by the length of the Flemington straight and then some.

    Should have been obvious to the List managers BEFORE Bedford left.

    This is reminding me of when I played U17’s and the top side would show up with a dozen players over 190 cm and most with beards and sideburns! We amazingly seem to be undersized all over the ground but somehow they also have midfield players everywhere, running riot! 

     

    Too funny. Thanks for that. 
     

    did you ever see that Wonder Years episode when he is soccer team shows up and the opposition are like twice as tall as them? I have memories like that too…

    I put the blame on our leaders 

    Viney and Clarry in the middle have been terrible especially when we are getting towelled up

    May the only leader standing up

    If I’m Goodwin 

    - Disco to shadow Darcy around the ground 

    - ANB hard tag on Young

    - Viney head to head with Sarong

    - McVee to the midfield.

    All should be put on the trade table afaic.

    The speed on this game looks to have gone past Salem in that first half.

    Hopefully he can bring something to the table in the second.

    This was a big test for us , but we are getting games into our youngsters and hopefully better next year with Trac back and a proper pre season for Clarry.

    We still have a chance this year with Max back next week.

    Hurts seeing Jackson dominate against us, as he is what we are missing most.

    • 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 return to the MCG this time as the visiting team where they get another opportunity to put a dent into a team's top 8 placing when they take on the Hawks on Saturday afternoon. Who comes in and who goes 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.
