Tom Dyson

the fact our second best defender is probably also our best forward genuinely makes me laugh.

can't retain possession at all, this is neeld era sort of bad.

have just turned it on, seems like our midfield is getting smashed yet again, anything else to note?

Tom McDonald, that is all.

Thank goodness vines decided to take the game on, much better transition from the back half.

We dont defend the handball chain through the corridor well at all, classic dees game, dominate most of the game and only up by 2 goals at halftime.

poor kicking gonna kill us here

I wonder whether mcqualter has had a detrimental impact on our midfield, I don't remember watching such an insipid melbourne midfield for a very long time and I haven't seen one that gets continually beaten regardless of the team we are matched up against. Everything stems from the midfield, poor entries, lack of territory, having to absorb repeat forward 50 entries in defense. It mostly comes back to mids winning the ball and retaining possession. As i said, i believe this is the worst our midfield has ever functioned in recent memory and i imagine the stats would suggest that as well, but why? I genuinely can't understand why this is the case this year and i'm wondering whether it is a coaching issue.

Can anyone else decipher why when the ball hits the deck inside our forward 50 there seems to 4 carlton players immediately on top of it yet it seems more like 1 on 1s when its in our d50, if we cant retain the entries, we're not going to challenge at all. Also can our midfield please get to work, Brisbane game we got smashed out of the centre and from memory the sydney game was a centre clearance demolition. amazing (or maybe it isnt amazing) how much rests on how effective your mids are at the contest.

That was an absolute snipe to the guts, if anything the carlton player should be getting heckled by dees fan not the other way round. The lack of intelligence on display by these morons beggars belief.

Carlton fans are just horrible, replacing essendon in the top three of the worst fan bases in the league??

This just isn't our night, spent all our energy last week it seems.

Arc score review gifts carlton another one. They can't win on their own merit. the whole thing is rigged.

The Collingwood fans actively cheering Maynard makes me sick. I know that’s what u should expect from Collingwood fans but please, lauding someone who knocked out Gus who himself has a history of concussion is a sickening act. Their degeneracy has sunk to a whole new low.

Our forward line just doesn’t have enough height, getting outmarked far too easily. Roo is good but he can’t do it all alone.

Our zone is going to be completely ineffective for their kick mark game, we have to tighten up cause they are transitioning from d50 way too easily.

The fact in our game we don’t have technology to produce a conclusive decision every time is a disgrace. All the Carlton defenders acted like it wasn’t touched too. Just a disgraceful call which cost us the game. Carlton scum acting like they’ve won the flag, bunch of degenerates. Genuine [censored] fan base.

Nibbler, Kozz and Chandler 3 goals each, small forward brigade is humming which is absolutely awesome to see!

Gotta tag dusty.

Joel smith the super sub, what an impact off the bench!!!

They’re gonna run over the top of us here. We looked cooked.

Steven having just an awful game.

Short of our little burst at the start of that quarter, Adelaide are dominating general play.

Gee thought Powell Pepper ran too far then.

Commentary team love affair for collingwood is sickening.
