Roo should have handballed then

Ya reckon? I thought it was a pretty good pass.

Fritsch has no physicality and body work to make that work.

It was a pure one on one and it was a good kick.

We keep sending our big body forward right up the field but I get it.

The kid needs to keep getting the ball in his hands to build confidence.

But Kozzy has to roll back too, so apart from Melksham. We really don't have anyone.

I'd seriously think about trading Fritsch at end of season. I say it wilth sadness too because he has been great but not for the last two seasons.

 

Melksham take a bow. And god help us that our best forward is 34.

We are so frustrating to watch. Full credit to Melksham. The oldest player and the only one standing up. Another goal!

 

Melksham set shot. Goal 6 (from set shots)

That lead by Melksham is

That last play there sums up our forward line.

JVR has an empty goal square and forward line. Fritsch has a team mate streaming towards him.

Three options:

  1. Fritsch leads hard to space. JVR kicks to him. Clean shot on goal.

  2. Fritsch drags his opponent away or runs off him to create space. JVR even shoots at goal or kicks/handballs to a free Fritsch.

  3. JVR backs himself in and has a shot at goal.

None of the above happen. Fritsch jogs a lead. JVR does a chip kick 15 meters. Fritsch is spoiled, Crows get it out.

This team is actually unwatchable.

Just as I said. Melksham just did exactly what Fritsch doesn't.

pity melks isn't 5 years younger. our only forward with real smarts

from 1.6

to 9.8


Can’t win a clearance and can’t tackle. What the actual [censored] has happened to this midfield?


Umps making sure now

we need more of what Hibberd brought to our 21 team.

Yeah, running those straight lines out of defence instead of boundary hugging and handballs

  • 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.

  • 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.
