Red But Mostly Blue

Truly embarrassing. Same thing, every time. Have we caught on? Nope.

We are 6 (now 7) goals down MAN UP FFS

How aren’t we manning up!!!!????????

King wants to see a 15-20 goal win for the dockers. That’s what he thinks of us.

How disappointing. Kolt should have made a better go at that, how aren’t we communicating with each other?? Then it goes the other end to an unmarked Walter’s, again. For a goal. Instead of being maybe 3 goals down, we’re back to 5 mainly because they’re not kicking straight. Maybe I’m delusional but we can come out and be aggressive. Mids need to work very hard. May being our top ball getter tells the story. let’s just come out and fight, throw everything at these guys we have nothing to lose.

0.2 in a qtr is not good enough. The truth is freo would be buoyed by the way they trashed us not even 2 months ago, so we’ll need a fairly dramatic turn in skills and mindset to make this a game.

I think so, too. I think their next two are losable - Crows then Saints. Would put a dent in their position if those around them keep winning, which might make them wobble. They ain't a top 4 side, and probably not even a top 8. Looking forward to that correction very soon.

Thanks, mate! :-)

The umpires tried to snatch it in the end, but no dice!! GREAT WIN! My takeaways: - I think we saw a rebirth for the team against the Lions. Great pressure for the whole game. Intense. Belief. - The kids are the future. Disco kicking big goals, McVee’s skills in the wet, Kozzie doing things only he can. Rivers continues to step up. Windsor had another cracker. Great vision and speed. Kolt, love his grit. - WITHOUT Trac and Gawn. No axtual ruck. This is our character. - The bombers are FRAUDS and CHEATS! I’m glad we helped to show them up and help them back down the ladder (although their soft draw will continue to help). - How good was Langdon? - How missed was Melksham?? Great night, always love beating these mugs. Only disappointment was not winning by 40+ but I can live that that. HERE WE COME!!!! 🔥💙❤️

What a load of [censored]. WHAT THROW??????? We have got to get this next goal. Can’t believe this is where we are now.

Nah they didn’t pick them up off the canvas, #22 did. Get em back, boys

What the hell was that??!

PROCESSION, PLEASE!! lets run these cheats into the ground Also, ‘deadeye disco’ ❤️

Kozzie got the goal from his brilliant tap on. Caleb vision and kick exquisite. Our kids ❤️

How much can one love Melksham? Not enough lol and redman totalling himself 🤣

Well, it’s ours to lose. We are in control. Tight, low scoring game but I hope we have learnt from the last few games (lions/roos) and we come out trying to score and put this away. The bombers will keep coming at us so we need to be firm, but bold. We can do this, first goal straight from the bounce, let’s go!

That kick was about 15cm

BANG!!! Love to see those ❤️

What a waste of Kozzie’s amazing skills on the other side, to burn that goal by leaving them so much room unmarked again???

Cracking tackle my McVee! Another good end to the qtr. keeping up the intensity, keeping them thinking and have just had a little more spark up forward. This is a good base to build from. Let’s get them in the second half!

Bombers goal was pure ar*e getting it there, ours much better and my boy Melky!

Wow how good was that!!!?? Kozzie, classy Melksham SO SMART Caleb crazy speed fantastic goal

Better end to the qtr. We look like we’re always on the precipice here though because we’re not manning up and happy to give them so much possession. We have to clean up our inside 50 entries, foot skills in general, and making sure that we hold them accountable and maintain intensity. Goal from Disco was awesome, and that 50 against Kozzie was diabolical.

WHY ARE WE NOT MANNING UP IN THEIR 50???!’n

We’re not manning up in their 50 and our inside 50 delivery has been poor. Will need to fix that very soon.
