The ball bounces and the tap is won by ...
Paddy DOW....what a butcher >:(
We have these slow starts still with us, our only enter, & no one in our 50.
5 minutes in and Lang's direct opponent is pretty much the Dees link man all over the ground, will Lang get within 50m of an opponent all day!
Thank f*** the dees can't kick straight.
We need to work out how to start the game. Our first quarters under teague are horrendous.
Melb inability to convert helping us, we can't find the ball at all.
With all the up skilling we all talking about these days, the general field kicking ability is amazingly bad.

True.
Showing all the signs for another disaster - terrible skills and a lot of umpire hate for the navy blue
Is Plowman playing for the Dees today? Seems to want to give it to them more than his team mates.
Name a basic skill today and we can't process it
This is officially stupid skills day
This is officially stupid skills day
Gov for your message and obliged with that shot at goal
Gov misses an easy one, Dow then kicks from 40, hard to fathom the run of the game today

Wasn't the plan Barbs .....
Gov misses an easy one, Dow then kicks from 40, hard to fathom the run of the game today
Does seem odd that Cas and Dow are kicking straight and Gov is missing easy shots
Another poor start.
If Dees could kick straight, it would be Lions repeat :-[
Well done Dow taking responsibility to kick a goal.
Go Blues
Based on previous weeks we are about 3 goals ahead of where we should be.
Should be a comfortable win ;D
Lucky we are only 2 goals behind. Usually 5 goals down by now.
Is Lang playing?
Fisher needs to find a way to touch the footy more. Doesn’t get it it anywhere near enough
Two really awful sides (skill wise) playing today.
All the energy & desperation from last week seems to be missing
These two sides will break the turnover record today.
Well good thing is plenty of upside from our boys most haven't touched the ball yet
Is Lang playing?
First possession 12 minute mark 2nd qtr rank clanger turnover!
Can't believe it, but this guy is worse than Smedts or Tutt!
Makes sMurph look like the club's hardman!
Unwatchable.
So much for starting next game in the style the previous was finished.
Poor...every part of the ground
Sad day when Casboult is our best kick on the ground
But at least he’s kicking goals!
Our mid field non existent hardly a touch between them. I like mentioned upside is there if they can retune
Jones having a shocker...
There is life, lucky Dee's are keeping us in it as well, but we are still there
Jones is still concussed.
11 players with 4 disposals or less. 11 players!!! :o
Dees are very poor opposition.....this should be a 10 goal hiding at half time.
Can’t possibly win when trying to carry so many young mids that just don’t touch it enough. :(

Basically the sane side that won last week....against a better midfield i reckon too.
Good thing about our poor disposal count thus far is that there is no way it is going to get worse than that. So if thats as bad as its going to get, and we are only 3 goals down, and we've come back from more in each of the past 3 weeks.....then that all points to an exciting comeback in the 2nd half.
Hope your right Kruds, but no signs yet
SOJ important goal to get us going, has been good today
How good has SOJ been the past couple of weeks!
Can't believe our lack of positions from our mids, really missing the skipper this week
Why is Teague persisting with playing Jones on McDonald ?
Well done Levi.
Too many no shows in the midfield. Can’t keep carrying Fisher Dow settlefield obrien sps Lang.
Maybe sps aside all are reserve grade footballers atm and wouldn’t get a game in any team except maybe GC.

I don’t know. This game is a joke. Have we ever sacked a caretaker coach?
I don’t know. This game is a joke. Have we ever sacked a caretaker coach?
Apparently Bolton and Ratten were caretaker coaches, according to some of my learned colleagues.
7 goals to 5 this qtr. Nice to see we can score, just wish we could stop the other mob scoring. Having a few issues balancing the new game plan.
Honeymoons over Mr T.. Always thought we would struggle without Skipper and against a quality midfield. Main difference I see is we are a very average
Team playing above our weight and Dees are a good team playing crape .....
McGovern is some sort of big donkey isn’t he.
Shows SFA - should be in the 2nds and give Kerr a run.
Cant provide less can he?
I don’t know. This game is a joke. Have we ever sacked a caretaker coach?
Weeding out crap from the old style sadly isn't an overnight thing.
Seems a very winnable game might drop us by. Mids MIA this week, lack of possessions means lack of scoring chances simple stuff
Weeding out crap from the old style sadly isn't an overnight thing.
Or we are serious about weeding out the crap, 8-10 players will
be dropped this week.
Gifting games to Dow fisher likes is not working.

It is sad that Kerr hasn't been given a chance given Charlie & Harry missing for multiple games

McGovern will be a good player for us for a number of years but right now he needs to be playing in the NBs. Out of confidence and out of form. If Harry's not back next week then Kerr needs a run.

We not gifting them it more a case they have had to take more major midfield roles before their time and it's not doing them alot of good right now. Might down the track but certainly not right now. We don't have older age midfield depth.
Lang will be playing for Leopold next yr.. and still won't get a touch.....
Dees with only one fit on the bench ....
Honeymoons over Mr T.. Always thought we would struggle without Skipper and against a quality midfield. Main difference I see is we are a very average

Just a young team who will always be inconsistent, irrespective of who is coaching. And there's still some time wasters on the list.
At the ground, haven’t seen Kreuzer since have way through the third, anyone got any news on where he is?
And SOJ is killing it. I've never been a big fan, but he's been great today. Well done mate.
Lucky Jack is doing well.
Thank you for the 50, and within 3 goals. Footy gods really do have a wicked sense of humour.
...and we're back.
3 goals if 15 minutes.
Momentum with us big time.
SOJ on fire.
Kicked the last 3, let's keep going.
I think the Demons have 1 on the bench ? Big chance to run them off their feet.
Our tackling has gone way up this quarter.
2 goals.
Gibbons goes BANG!
Thank God for straight kicking. 13.7 is pretty good.
OMG. Why do these guys keep doing this to me?

Back on the ground now.
If Silvagni doesn't get 3 votes today, he never will.
Cmon Setterfield
This is killing me.
5 points. HTB was a little harsh IMO.
5 points and ALL of the momentum.
They are lacking players on the bench, we should run away with it from here
Headless footy.
Time for hero , who will it be ?
Setterfield to draw the game with 4 minutes to go.
Feck me. This is doing my head in.
Given where we come from I'll take a draw.
1 point.
My ticker is about to stop.
No Charlie, No Harry, No Cripps....Gov unsighted.
Who will kick our goals?
15 goals.
3 Setterfield
3 Casboult
3 Silvagni
2 Kennedy
1 Dow
1 Obrien
1 Gibbons
:o
Demons are out on their feet.
Game over I reckon.
Feck me. No composure.
Feck me. No composure.
You or the team ? :D
All over boys and girls. 5 points down.
Both.
Gov the minor miracle....hit the post.
Another 100 point in the for column....but with another 'L'
Both.
:D
Demons were the better team for 3 quarters. We threw the kitchen sink at them in the last.
The second we got it front and went defensive it was over. Stupid football, all the momentum and we kill the pace and turn it over. Wtf!!
What's this kicking 100 caper and losing.
Switch it over to the post match thread folks.
That was probably our last chance of a win this season. I guess we hand over pick 2 to the Crows.
Honeymoons over Mr T.. Always thought we would struggle without Skipper and against a quality midfield. Main difference I see is we are a very average

Slow hand must have tuned out. Was scathing there for a while.......
