    Our ball handling is so bad. What’s Chocco doing with them

    Not sure about Kolt. 

    For a 19 y.o. playing his 9th/10th game, I reckon he could be doing WAAAAYYYYY worse

    What ever they are doing they are still trying.  [censored] run with the free kicks but still going for it

    I’m usually a bit of an optimist, but no, they have not been trying at all. They have been lazy, giving them acres of room, applying little to no pressure, constantly being caught flat footed, fumbling the ball, etc etc etc.

    Let's get one thing straight moving forward.

    Judd McVee is NOT a midfielder at all. Getting spanked and exposed big time in there.

    Tried the experiment, that's a wrap.

    You wonder if Lever isn't the only one with illness with this kind of performance.

    Small sample size,  but McVee not working in the midfield.

    Only been a few weeks, but seems he needs the game in front of him and struggles with congestion around. Also appears he doesn't have great top speed and so rushes and shank kicks bursting forward. When down back he has side step from whats coming front on and kicks after a few steps, not on the run. Appears better suited to half back based on this. 

    Not every good small defender or forward needs to be made into a midfielder.

    Can't wait for another season of this exceptional ball use in 2025.

    Same as.Petty not being a forward, just stop

    McVey off interchange straight to rooms.  
    Anyone see anything?

    I reckon Chocco's times up at the club.

    Skills are non existent.

    We have gotten very sloppy as a football club.

    2025 is definitely make or break for Woey.

    Not sure what his strengths are.

    I'm really hoping he is a late bloomer like his old man. Shane was drafted as a mature age player when he was 21 in 97.

    He’s nowhere near strong enough. He’s so good at HB I just don’t understand the need to play him in the middle at this stage.

    Kolt can’t pick up a ground ball and Woey just doesn’t have required AFL features.  
     

    Sad to see ANB have such a bad final game.

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      There was a time during the current Melbourne cycle that goes back to before the premiership when the club was the toughest to beat in the fourth quarter. The Demons were not only hard to beat at any time but it was virtually impossible to get the better them when scores were close at three quarter time. It was only three or four years ago but they were fit, strong and resilient in body and mind. Sadly, those days are over. This has been the case since the club fell off its pedestal about 12 months ago after it beat Geelong and then lost to Carlton. In both instances, Melbourne put together strong, stirring final quarters, one that resulted in victory, the other, in defeat. Since then, the drop off has been dramatic to the point where it can neither pull off victory in close matches, nor can it even go down in defeat  gallantly.

    • CASEY: Footscray

      At twenty-four minutes into the third term of the game between the Casey Demons and Footscray VFL at Whitten Oval, the visitors were coasting. They were winning all over the ground, had the ascendancy in the ruck battles and held a 26 point lead on a day perfect for football. What could go wrong? Everything. The Bulldogs moved into overdrive in the last five minutes of the term and booted three straight goals to reduce the margin to a highly retrievable eight points at the last break. Bouyed by that effort, their confidence was on a high level during the interval and they ran all over the despondent Demons and kicked another five goals to lead by a comfortable margin of four goals deep into the final term before Paddy Cross kicked a couple of too late goals for a despondent Casey. A testament to their lack of pressure in the latter stages of the game was the fact that Footscray’s last ten scoring shots were nine goals and one rushed behind. Things might have been different for the Demons who went into the game after last week’s bye with 12 AFL listed players. Blake Howes was held over for the AFL game but two others, Jack Billings and Taj Woewodin (not officially listed as injured) were also missing and they could have been handy at the end. Another mystery of the current VFL system.

    • PREGAME: Brisbane

      The Demons head back out on the road in Round 10 when they travel to Queensland to take on the reigning Premiers and the top of the table Lions who look very formidable. Can the Dees cause a massive upset? Who comes in and who goes out?

      Wayward kicking for goal, dump kicks inside 50 and some baffling umpiring all contributed to the Dees not getting out to an an early lead that may have impacted the result. At the end of the day the Demons were just not good enough and let the Hawks run away with their first win against the Demons in 7 years.
