  1. Boooooo! Booooo! 🤣

    Thanks, I will
  3. Next we need a young ruck to take over from Max, so these guys can get silver service into the next decade

    Innuendo, wink-wink bs that will be proven wrong Please bookmark this so that we can call you out October

    Good god, NO!

    Umpires doing their best to ruin a high standard game
  7. I have noticed that numerous other clubs train during the afternoon, rather than first thing in the morning, which we mostly do. North are often out training at 6pm under lights. For the sports science posters, what's the value/reasoning behind this?

    No thank you. I don't believe we are the sort of club that can turn a player like JUH around in the same way Geelong, Collingwood or some of the northern state clubs can. IMO he's more likely to create trouble rather than become the best player he can with us.
  9. If we lose this week I will continue to be disappointed that we could not win more flags with the outstanding list we have had in the last 5 years

    I'd prefer the end of the year, it's unlikely there's anyone better to take over. But I suspect you may be thereabout right We are imploding very quickly Today was putrid to watch, small crowd too. This will hurt the finances if we continue the form
  11. Clearance count 25 to 11 😡
  12. GCS clearances killing us. Coming out too easily. Same last round vs Norf
  13. 17 points. Should be 7 goals behind. Our kicking is nothing short of putrid. Improve that in the 2nd half and we are a chance
  14. Oliver oil today
  15. Is it compulsory for us to always attempt marks i50 one handed?
  16. This is painful to watch. Our kicking is circa 2010 Melbourne
  17. Stiff Arm replied to WERRIDEE's post in a topic in Melbourne Demons
    Agreed. We have too many average/poor kicks in our midfield. The long bombs are useless, especially when we have a bunch of prepubescent kpf's who understably struggle to take a contested mark Max, Viney, Tracc, Clarry, Langdon, Sharp, Sparrow and Billings are all unreliable by foot Hopefully the addition of Langford and Lindsay will improve this delivery, but it’s 2-3 years away before they hit their peak. We desperately need more elite kicks and decision makers IMO Max should not go i50, certainly not as a tall target. He's a terrible kick, can't hit the ocean with a beach ball. AJ or JVR should take ruck there
  18. I certainly think his days are numbered. If he isnt replaced during the season, he should be at the end of the year. IMO he's gone as far as he can with this group Happy to be proven wrong in 10 weeks, can't see it happening. One flag from such an amazing list is underwhelming

    Umpires should've chaired off Pendles and Siddey
  21. I hate honorable losses. Hate em.
  22. May, Kossie, McVee
  23. Yep. Not enough polish in front of goals. And not enough forward pressure to keep it in. Giants ran it out to easily
  24. It's only matter of time before a big punter, or punting syndicate, takes on the AFL because one poor umpiring decision cost them big time. Now that's what will change the AFLs mindset towards umpiring standards. Money means everything to AFL HQ. All else is secondary.
