Pretty good without dominating

His best work has been in link up play between the arcs where he has found space and used the footy well in transition

Had 2 shots on goal in the first quarter, one long bomb from 55 and a second from a set shot inside 50 where he missed both

Has played pretty much exclusively as an inside mid from what I can tell but you miss stuff with the dodgy camera work

A few too many quick kicks. 
He has the ability to break tackles - just needs to try it.

Verral has no physical presence 

Yeah I've been a pretty staunch supporter but he's heading towards delist material. 

3rd year in the system and hasn't shown any improvement at all. As you say, for such a big guy he does lack that physical presence.

Sure you weren’t looking at Lewis?

With that many talls they should be raffling it. Too often players are not minding their opposition - no care for their teammates. 

 

Jeeesus the skill level from our MFC players in Brown and Campbell have been atrocious so far in this last quarter.

I don't get to training so I can't comment but on bigfooty a regular Melbourne supporter who attends said in all the pressure season training he went to, goalkicking practice was completely non existent. 

Yes, the player do it on their own spare time after training but from he was saying there is a no structured training in place for this.

Get this Daz.. I was the goalkicking coach for De.La Salle and Old Melbourne grammarians after I retired and both won flags when I was there. My phys ed background worked a treat! It needs a regimented structured approach, but I reckon my methods weren't that hard to master!

Lovely work from Langers there

Let me save you the heartache, Verral will not make it. I’ve got more of a chance of making it………….

…………….now wait for him to set the world on fire in 3…..2…….1……

Baldi & Yze having an impact in this last Q

 

That score pretty much sums up the one v one today

Scores are officially nice.

Meanwhile, these commentators are reminding me of when I discovered that Robbocoholic becomes bearable if you speed up the audio to 1.5x. I think 1.25 would do for this pair.

  • 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.

  • GAMEDAY: Geelong

    It's Game Day, and reinforcements are finally arriving for the Demons—but will it be too little, too late? They're heading down the freeway to face a Cats side returning home to their fortress after two straight losses, desperate to reignite their own season. Can the Demons breathe new life into their campaign, or will it slip even further from their grasp?

  • PREVIEW: Geelong

    "It's officially time for some alarm bells. I'm concerned about the lack of impact from their best players." This comment about one of the teams contesting this Friday night’s game came earlier in the week from a so-called expert radio commentator by the name of Kane Cornes. He wasn’t referring to the Melbourne Football Club but rather, this week’s home side, Geelong.The Cats are purring along with 1 win and 2 defeats and a percentage of 126.2 (courtesy of a big win at GMHBA Stadium in Round 1 vs Fremantle) which is one win more than Melbourne and double the percentage so I guess that, in the case of the Demons, its not just alarm bells, but distress signals. But don’t rely on me. Listen to Cornes who said this week about Melbourne:- “They can’t run. If you can’t run at speed and get out of the contest then you’re in trouble.
