GAME DAY - Tiges vs Dees

This interpretation of what is and what isn’t 15 metres is a joke

Oh well. Been good while it lasted. Cant complain. 3 of the last 4. Would have been nice to have another crack this year but looks like other teams have become better and hungrier
 
Hardwick better find a new game plan and make some tough decisions at selection or we wont even make the finals.

Our forward entries way too predictable
Absolutely. It’s just killing us. It’s just look for Jack or Lynch almost every single time. Defenders know where it’s going, spoil, and it hits the ground with numbers and out it comes.

1980’s stuff.

Fumbling constantly, poor disposals and not working hard enough.
Shocking performance
 
Not being allowed to move the ball our way. Picked apart. The way we kick goals has also been worked out, besides, we no longer have the players down there who used to make it work. Our defence has been a tad shaky all year, and is being exposed a lot tonight. No class run through the ground. Jackson is an incredible pick up for them, when is Samson ready?
 
I think we need to look at how we are send the ball into forward 50. Long kicks into 50 has not been our go to play for years. Run and carry has been our one wood. Then get numbers in their and lock it in.
The ball has been coming to ground but Salem and Hunt
have owned the half back line.

Everything is an interpretation! It's just a farce. Watch this last quarter and see how we are 'interpreted' to play on quickly, while the dees get an extra second or 2. It's a joke.
 
Demons defence lines of 5 and 4 folding back is actually very good to watch. It’s good coaching. They are in the last line every time

Midfield needs a revamp with speed. Bolton has to play there primarily for a start. Cotchin & Graham look like plodders tonight. All our issues are starting by losing contested ball/clearance plus our much vaunted forward pressure is non existent. Opposition half backs are just streaming on us.

It’s a shame job being done like this by the dees but it was bound to happen at some point. It’s hard to keep it up week after week when every team plays their premiership against you every week

I think we went all out to put them away early but it backfired because we have too many dumb footballers that just wasted opportunity after opportunity in that first qtr. We are too gassed now. This will end up being a 50 point loss. Gotta say. Some very average coaching tonight as well
 
Melbourne working harder and playing much smarter.
Our fwd movement is woeful, constant turnovers.
Always Melbourne players free all over the ground when we constantly kick to contests when we are outnumbered.

Id play him next week ............... :))
 
Has spent a lot of time on the bench, but this has to be one of Dustin's worst games ever.
