View Full Version : Round 14 - Melbourne v Brisbane - MCG
Wow, not a thread on this game yet.
A rare 1pm game at the MCG and the Demons are off to a flyer. They've kicked 3 on the trot I believe.

Time to wake up guys, and that includes the coach. Fancy being outdone by a rookie coach.
Snap out of it Brisbane. :D

Melbourne have come to play, as they usually do at the MCG. As soon as the Dees hit the front the Lions would have wanted the quarter to hurry up and end, but they leaked another goal with 20 seconds left. Lions have not looked good at all, will be a tough slog this one.

As mentioned on tv - Ligament damge to his ankle apparently, out for the rest of the game and possibly for a few weeks.
Why is this game on now instead of 2:30 or 2:10?
I can't remember the last time there was an MCG game at 1pm.

It may be an experiment for the split round, but in honsety I don't really know.

Whelan according to the radio coverage. Not sure of the injury.
Sylvia, hadn't kicked a goal for 3 weeks, now he's kicked 2 in a row. 5 on the trot for the Dees!! :thumbsu:

This has been good, 4 out of 5 games of footy are live this weekend. Better than the delayed bullshyt Channel 7 serves up, the less footy they get, the better.

Halftime
Demons the way better team, have dominated the whole half.
Its only close cos the charity Lions were handed THREE STRAIGHT GOALS from FREE KICKS.
Dees about to win their 2nd game of the year. Lions look very unimpressive, and will be lucky to make the 8.

Rischitelli's free kick was pretty soft as well, or at the very least I'd expect those to eb paid down the other end - which they haven't.

Bode clubbed him in the head, the free was there.

Demons have been much better, only the last few minutes of that quarter did the Lions start to look anywhere near their capabilities - and even then, a bit of good fortune helped them. I still think Melbourne can win this, if they get the first couple of goals their confidence will soar again.
Looks like Brock is ready to rock. (Yes poor line but meh point is he's out there)
CAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARN DEMONS!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Rischitelli with another free kick, although that was there. Melbourne by only 2 now.
Sylvia to give Melbourne some breathing space..misses

The only time it is ever at 2.30 is Anzac day/GF day.
This is Melbournes second at the MCG @ 1.10 on a Sunday.
Hawks have 2 this season
Tigers have 1
So it happens a bit...

Brisbane seem to be hanging in there, but I don't think they can win. Melbourne lapse at the wrong times but are fully in control I think. Come on Dees, one or two goals early will finish em off.

Thank God it's on Foxtel, living in Melbourne 7 always show games on a delay. Live footy is good.
I want Melbourne to win this and I think they will, but if I was a Lions fan I'd be annoyed at the bias they show towards the Dees.

Free to Bradshaw! Oh you gotta feel for the Dees. Leading pretty much all game and just a little tug on the jumper could give Brisbane the game.

Davey copped high and no free :confused:

29 Jun 2008, 16:37
Terrible non-free kick to Davey.
Now a gimme to Bradshaw in the square.
Game over.
This is getting ridiculous, Davey gets hung and gets nothing while Bradshaw gets a little tug of the jumper and gets the free kick in the goal square.
I hope these umpires are shot, they deserve it.
RizzoTheRat
29 Jun 2008, 16:38

29 Jun 2008, 16:38
How the ____ did they miss that free to Davey? He nearly had his head taken clean off his shoulders, and now Brisbane are 11 points up.
I'd be spewing if I was a Dees fan. I'm spewing and I'm not.
