Billing’s kicking is and always has been shizen

Some sessions with Tiger Woods’s Shrink will help.

    Same number of scoring shots 

    Bit like the last few years 

    yes yes this year’s sample is n=1 - hopefully not a portent of things to come (I might lose my mind)

    I always thought Bowza was a measured composed footballer, but how many times has he thrown it on the boot today with zero regard or spatial awareness??

    Has Jed Adams had a disposal?

    He’s had 4 times what Chandler has produced 😳

    How to fu the game umpires, call a free that doesn’t exist when all of our blokes are streaming forward because the obvious free was ignored!

    Not sure Max Viney’s tackling classes have done much unfortunately - we haven’t been able to stick tackles all day

    Bowey ain't best 22.

    Billings literally can't kick a goal to save his life. 

    Again, we get scored against too easily.

    It’s a practice game & hope Goodwin isn’t showing his hand entirely as we will do stuff all leaking 16 goals

    He’s not the player he was in year 1, a little muddled in the head still after a bad injury last year? Or from Steve May barking at our backline to chip it sideways and bomb it long for 3 years?

    Whatever it is he has to do better than this

    What in the world was Fritta thinking - in range, passes back to Billings - fails to score.

    Q4: Why would Fritter pass it to Billings???!!!

    Billings is possibly the worst finisher in the AFL! If he could actually finish off his work he'd be a decent player, he has no trouble finding the ball.

    22 behinds. It doesn’t really matter what your tactics are or what you do around the ground if you kick that many behinds. Make that 24

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
