I'd bite through bullet now and bring him in for Spargo.

Thought the same, spargo seems nowhere today.

 

We’re in this. Boys are having a crack but so far it’s just that the Lions are a better skilled team. Simple as that. But they are not unbeatable. We can win this.

‘Just’ need to clean up our skills, make sure we take our chances and keep up the pressure until the very end. AND DO NOT THE LIONS GET ANY CHEAPIES.

Just that, and we could be a shot.

    Can’t complain too much with the effort so far.

    But this is the gameday thread so I need to let all the negativity out. The quicker we can replace Sharp and Spargo with proper AFL players the better. We are wasting Windsor down back who by the way has suddenly become a huge ball butcher. Get him playing in the right spot would be a start. May has been OK but what the hell was that effort on Gardiner?

    I honestly like AJ. I’m sure his stats suck but he gives us something.

    Just quietly Clarry is …. back?

    I'm with you on AJ.

    Give him a couple of games.

    The desperation and physicality is there.

    We're still in this and stopped the bleeding.

    But as someone mentioned, we seem to work so hard for nil return kicking to 1 on 3 contests in our f50.

    We're playing the boundary so much. It's incredibly frustrating and must be exhausting.

    We've played a good team who use the corridor last week and a great team who use the corridor this week.

    We need to be able to learn from them and cut them open same way.

    Please make this the last time we see both Sharp and Spargo in the same team.

    Both need to go.

    Is Spargo playing on Zorko?

    If he is, his first half is doubly pathetic.

    7 possies with probably 6 turnovers.

    Zorko has had 18 creative possessions.

    Windsors pre season or lack thereof is behind his inconsistency but agree HB is not for him. I’m not really sure where he is best suited.

    From memory he always had question marks on his kicking skills.

    Well that would be the wing where he played some scintillating footy last season along with a number of fabulous goals on the run.

    Not sure why we're playing him off HB. Another SG special

    Hate starting quarters like that.


    We were unlucky with that rebound. Should have been a deep 50 entry

    Shocking HB attempt from Tracc

    Done a few good things but offset by the bog ordinary

    The Lions are SO confident we will turn it over that they're keeping one or two numbers ahead of the ball readying for the sling shot off of our regular turnovers and clangers in transition

    Would help a lot if Pretty at least made an attempt to compete in a marking contest. 2 weak efforts so far this term

    • PREVIEW: Essendon

      Not long ago, the narrative surrounding Melbourne was steeped in pessimism. There was some concern among the pundits (and even some fans) that the club would arrive at the AFL’s Gather Round still winless, vulnerable to a familiar adversary in the Essendon Football Club, and facing significant scrutiny from an ever-critical media on a national stage. Things have changed.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      Steven King astutely identified the issues that had plagued the Melbourne Football Club over the past two and a half seasons when he auditioned for the newly created coaching role. The side that had claimed the 2021 premiership had become stodgy, slow-paced, and hesitant to take the initiative.

    • POSTGAME: Gold Coast

      The Demons put four quarters of hard contested, fast running and high pressure football to knock off the ladder leaders and early premiership contenders the Gold Suns by 20 points at the MCG on Easter Sunday.

    • PODCAST: Gold Coast

      I’ll be away for the next few weeks, so Binman will be holding the fort for our podcasts covering the Suns, Bombers and Lions matches. As a result, there will be no live podcasts during this period, and we won’t be taking calls or voicemails. Binman will still be dipping into this thread to select a few questions to answer, while also combining the long-form Stats Files podcast with the Demonland Podcast for these shows. Your questions and comments are a huge part of what makes the podcast work, so please post anything you’d like to ask or say below and we’ll do our best to give you a shout-out on the show. Please try to keep each post focused on one specific topic or player to make podcast preparation a little easier. If you have multiple topics you’d like to raise, please put them in separate posts.
