What was with JVR goal not allowed. At the ground and no idea why the review said it hit the post?

Why on earth was Disco subbed in and put in the backline.

Goody is doing my head in

Yep I was dumbfounded when I saw TMAc fwd. Make it make sense.

Just more AFL HQ manipulation.


5 day breaks only affect us it seems.

Oh right, TMAC forward now.

Tanking lite?

Going by his goal kicking, possibly 😂

Though his kick was a bit poor, barely made the distance.

It didn’t look like it in the telly. And no one is questioning it. 


Daylight between the post and the goal, but no disallow the goal. 
 

The arc is the most corrupt display of bias I’ve ever seen.

Maybe the dogs will get tired given they are coming off a 5 day break? Kind of like we do after a 5 day break? It’s about our only chance to steal a 5 goal loss here. 

Viney only 8 touches, no may to help the backline. 

The score review isn't our friend either. 

Are we going to do our usual thing and come back in the last to lose by less than a kick, and then claim it to be an honorable loss? That practice is a load of bollocks

So we dominated clearances this quarter without Clarry or Viney doing anything. Interesting. 

Enjoying our goal kicking accuracy :cool:

Classic Goodwin.

Try to cobble together some left field strategy with the season on the line.

Did the same thing last year putting Petty forward in the dying quarter.

Why is TMac playing forward? He has openly stated his previous injuries have resulted in him being unable to play forward, and the club have told him as much. He was nearly delisted as a result. How is this suddenly not an issue in the middle of a game? This club and coaching staff is a joke, honestly.

Also, consider the Melksham experiment over. Might as well just retire tomorrow.

Terrible quarter from the first minute to the last. We have maybe three players who want to be there, the rest are clearly looking forward to going on holidays.

We are shameful 

As bad as the umps have been ...yep..we have been five times worse.

We have no midfield 

 

It helps when you do.

Remember when we played this mob in a gf three years ago?

Seems like a decade and yet a lot of them are still out there getting pantsed.

Make no mistake the score line doesn't count.

We have been absolutely put to the sword tonight.

This year.

 

I’m not even angry anymore. 
 

We are literally rock bottom. No fight, no class , nothing. We are fast becoming a joke and irrelevant.

Disco and Petty back now and Tmac has gone forward. Probably because he was getting too close to punching an umpire in the head. 

I’ve never seen him so angry. Can’t blame him. I would be suspended for life if I had been out there tonight.

 

we are lucky to be as close as we are their kicking has been almost as bad as our team is playing. lack of chasing and tackling is poor. same old same old. not manning up, too many opposition players running free. where is that team that won a grand final, is there any semblance of that team left. very disappointed in the way we have crumbled since winning the flag. our window of opportunity is closing again.

Just not good enough this year.

Too many have gone past us.

I fear we will need a helluva lot to go right to even make the 8 next year.

  • THE STATS FILES: St. Kilda

    As part of the effort to trim the runtime of the regular podcast, we’ve been looking at which segments could be reshaped without losing what makes them valuable. One segment that naturally came into focus was Binman’s Stats Files. Not because it isn’t important; quite the opposite. It’s become such a substantial and much-loved part of the show that it deserves a little room to breathe.

  • REPORT: St. Kilda

    One of the big stories of the AFL off-season was the spending spree of Melbourne’s Round 1 opponent, St Kilda. They splashed out heavily, first to retain Nasiah Wanganeen-Milera - the hero of last year’s epic come-from-behind miracle victory -turning him into a $2 million man. They then effectively took out an expensive overdraft to recruit a string of expensive players from other clubs. It was a risky investment strategy and, although it’s still early days, it certainly failed to pay off in Sunday’s season opener, with much of the glitter turning to fool’s gold.
