This is a strange game.

Despite being in front at half time, I don't feel we deserve to be not do I feel the least bit confident that we will win.

Only our accuracy and the lack of ours has kept us in.

Culley and Roo f

Soft ending.

We actually have 4 of the top 5 rated players on the ground, but the problem is we have 6 of the bottom 8 as well.

If not for Koz, Gawn and Disco, we'd be down a few.

Need to see a lot more from guys like Langford, Culley, Windsor, Lindsay etc - and hopefully Melk/JVR/Fritter can get more involved at the scoring end!

And we lead turnovers 43-35

Max has been good but it's very unusual for him to not have one mark by half time which is the situation.

Has poor Jake been taken off? I hope not but his stats suggest he has.

Who if anyone is going to kick our goals?

Culley and Brody don't look dominating.

I was hoping for a big Fritts...... Melksham shoe. Nup.

Jvr....can't see it.

He's like a turtle

Maybe the two Pickett's.

Win this quarter convincingly and we could make top four.

Heaps at stake.

Windsor.nrrdd to.pull.hod finger out

Lots do

Just get the first of 7 for this quarter.

 

Far out. Too easy.

We're making an average side look good.

Why do we this to ourselves?????

    Front on contact depends on which team does it I see

    Culley can’t get beat in behind whoever that guy was. That’s just lack of defensive attention

    Culley looks horrible, not sure how much his injury has affected him but based of preseason reports he looks very far off what people were saying.


    The extremely soft underbelly of this club is staggering. Even in the 2021 flag year, we still put up weak as [censored] performances. Remember GWS? Remember Collingwood in Buckley’s final match as coach?

    We miss our chances, and they take theirs.

    Our conversion kept us in the first half, won't be good if that falls away.

    Lot of footy left, but this doesn't look good. Thought we'd come out after HT firing, but we're still asleep and sloppy.

    We have been dragged down to their level and are stinking it up bigtime

    • 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.

      Gather Round is upon us and the Demons face off against the Bombers who are on a 17 game losing streak. Who comes in and who goes out?

      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.
