Our percentage is 48%. That’s Neeld era percentage!

GAMEDAY: Rd 02 vs Geelong
The Petracca squib summed up his season thus far. We need to win next week or it’s season over. Only 3 teams in 100+ years have won the flag from 0-3.

1 goal in two quarters in unacceptable in any match. Fight it out boys and show some pride for the jumper for [censored] sake!

Key issue is still lack of leadership. Lewis might not be a great player anymore, but at least he’s a vocal leader who barks orders and organizes the troops. Lever is the same. Their leadership absence is evident. Neither Jones or Viney are vocal leaders. It’s great to have some lead by example types, but we need vocal leaders to organize us. This is still a young team who need guidance.

On track for an 80 point thumping here. What key changes do we make for next week to try and save our season?
-
GAMEDAY: Rd 02 vs Geelong
So many key player a out of form. Gawn has been woeful. Has he drunk too much bath water?

GAMEDAY: Rd 02 vs Geelong
Season on the ropes. Us vs Essendon next week, loser is likely cooked. So many player so out of form, and our game style is atrocious.

Would love to get Garlett back into our forward line... well any proven goal kicker really.
-
GAMEDAY: Rd 02 vs Geelong
We don’t have a forward line. It’s amazing we were the highest scoring team last year somehow.

GAMEDAY: Rd 02 vs Geelong
Fritsch has been disappointing so far this season too. I was expecting him to take another step forward this year and become a quality player, but he’s struggling. Oliver really digging in and trying to carry the team. He’s a star.

Petracca stuffed it again. How can anyone be satisfied with what he’s producing?
-
GAMEDAY: Rd 02 vs Geelong
Then we drop him. He’s in the team on potential, not output. Either he gets involved and has an impact, or we drop him.

What’s happened to May? This season is falling apart for us!

GAMEDAY: Rd 02 vs Geelong
Petracca can [censored] off. Drops chest marks and slips basic tackles. He is playing [censored] football when he get sick near it, which isn’t often. Serious waste of talent. So disappointing.

GAMEDAY: Rd 02 vs Geelong
We’ve gone backwards 3 years. This team looks like it’s trying but doesn’t have the skill or gameplan/game sense to be anything other than “competitive”. Our main strength is contested ball and we’ve completely lost it. Teams have worked out how to position themselves to counter our kids at stoppages. Our season isn’t looking good.

GAMEDAY: Rd 02 vs Geelong
Petracca seriously struggling for form. He’s looking like a bust at pick 2. Imagine if we had De Goey up forward!
-
GAMEDAY: Rd 02 vs Geelong
We are getting destroyed in contested ball. Cats nearly twice as many contested possessions. Wtf has happened to our hard midfield?!
-
GAMEDAY: Rd 02 vs Geelong
Getting beaten inside and outside. It’s going to be a long night and unless we find form soon it’s going to be a wasted season.
-
GAMEDAY: Rd 02 vs Geelong
Getting done on the outside again. This is going to be a long night.
-
GAMEDAY: Rd 02 vs Geelong
What the [censored] is going on with our backline! They were just outnumbered 5 vs 2! How does that happen?!
-
GAMEDAY: Rd 02 vs Geelong
Kolodjashnij has started well. He’s working the far wing beautifully, positioning perfect. He’s gone in hard a few times too already. We might have found our missing wingman finally!

Great goal Lockhart!

Non MFC games Round 2
Duursma, Butters and Roze all look like great draft choices. That's a great group to build around going forward for the Power.

Who will the Demons target next?
We have to use our first round pick at draft, so no trading this year. It's free agency or trading low picks and average players. The club should throw the world at Coniglio. Land him as a free agent. Coniglio's a perfectly rounded midfielder. Has pace, agility, tackles like mad, can win ball inside, can do damage on the outside, and can kick multiple goals attacking through the flanks. He's still underrated and IMO is in the top 5-10 midfielders in the game at present. I'd trade anyone on our list for him bar Oliver. Unfortunately he'll likely stay at GWS or head home to WA. If we did acquire extra currency to trade, then Ed Langdon fits the bill for midfield pace. We've been into him for year, so perhaps this is the year we land him. McStay from the Lions would be good. Can play key forward or back, and would add to our tall forward depth.

Non MFC games Round 2
Charlie Curnow down into the rooms with a knee injury. He was running straight like chasing to tackle and just suddenly went down. Barely change of direction or anything. Very strange knee injury. Let's hope it's not serious, as knee injuries are striking hard across the league thus far this season.
