Review Dees v Poort: the Good, Bad and Fugly

[Scythe]

Every time I watch the dees I love hearing some bullshit stat like “melbournes opponents have had 1 mark inside 50 in the last 3 years, today they’ve had 13 in the first quarter”

****ing love that shit, give me more.

“Ratugolea has never had more than 4 intercept marks, today he’s had 7 in the first half”

A classic Melbourne game, a comedic journey from start to finish, highlighted by:

- The obligatory giving up a goal in the dying seconds of a quarter. Not content with doing it once, 3 times a charm. Tick

- Managing to pull off the ever elusive 3 goal turnaround. Essentially costing the match in 10 mesmerising seconds of game time. Tick

- Several un-pressured forward entries to one on one’s resulting in nothing more than comedic levels of incompetence. Tick.

- And not forgetting the most consistent feature of our game, the obligatory kicking more points than goals. Tick

Genuine masterclass.

While i will complain again about some odd decisions by the umpires

We where fairly undisciplined today i thought either via frustration or just wrongly channelled aggression

20 point under expected.

Port fans hatred of Hinkley is massive drama queen behaviour. No one has it worse than us with Goodwin.

Even the community football game that I saw at Victoria Park today probably featured more skill than what this ****ing club served up today.

I reckon I’ve been Sandra Sully’d by two minutes..

I mean, great minds think alike and all

I think as others have mentioned it's basically the same old story. Everything felt like hard work whilst the opposition hurt us easily the other way. The last quarter was painful to watch. Was only about 19 points with 10 to go but it felt like 50. Constantly attacking and turning it over you know eventually port will score. Pretty much sums our season just when you think we are getting back they just piss it away.

Shit bottom 4 football club.
Cant even beat a bottom 4 side.

We are a joke and will be shit for years

 

[dees arent rabble]

North are ahead of us.
They have better skilled players than us

Derrrr.. They beat us by 10 goals.

This is actually the worry now isn't it. The likelihood of being bottom 4 again for a long stretch. Kangas and Tigers have a huge jump on us with young talent. May, Max, Melk retiring soon with no one really looking likely to step up and replace them. Lacking real leadership too. I mean, Riv and Sparrow are about the best bet for C and VC lol. Tas about to enter(maybe) and suck up all the young talent too. Need a couple of very creative people to come in and turn this around. We stick with the same, we'll end up the next WCE/Kangas for sure.

Used to love the community cup, been a hot minute since I've been there.

Fortunately Tassie looks dead in the water so the draft will be slightly less compromised as we try to rebuild

[Daemon]

No goods.

It's all bad.

Can't be bothered getting mad about it.

 

[Toump Ass]

Really enjoyed seeing big maxy take a shot at goal on the run.

He shanked it obviously but it was fun for a second.

 

[Toump Ass]

I wonder if he practiced that at training.

 

[mrmonkey]

There's a lot of things to go mad over but Max's set shot routine really does my head in. You know he runs out right and hooks left every single time. He's corrected this before but has reverted to that bad habit. They talk about fixing kicking but they never do. It's the old doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results. Max for the love of God run straight It's not hard.

Who tf is in charge of this at the club? Is it Choco? Or Chaplin as forward coach? Our set shot routines are garbage. Absolute garbage. Doesn't help a lot of our entries are to the pocket where we make most of our leads. Our opposition nearly always have easier shots on goal. I can't recall the last time we actually created space in the F50 for any length of time other than the odd game.

Ugly. Ess getting a good pick in the next draft

Thankfully the draft is a weak one, but yeah, looks like a top 4 or 5 pick lol.

Wouldn't surprise me if they completely fall apart when he's gone.

 

[stEdy]

Loved Petty running in left and kicking it left from one of those set shots in the 2nd half. **** me.

Probably with a soccer ball
