Game Day Thread, Melbourne v. St Kilda

[Wonaeamirri33]

Russky back on again and very timely, we've lost momentum while he was on the bench...

 

[Wonaeamirri33]

Peake with the long ball from 50, but cut off by Jonah. Whew...

 

[Wonaeamirri33]

Dunny with the set shot 48 out. Come on son, we NEED this!

YES. Straight through the middle...

Bennell through 3 too Dunn and he kicks a GOALLLLLLLL

 

[MAXIMUM GRUNDAGE]

Dunny!

Flush!

 

[Wonaeamirri33]

The Russky with a set shot from around the 50, but didn't hit it quite right and it fell short to a pack. Damn....

 

[Wonaeamirri33]

****!

Schneider's set shot from outside 50 somehow went through 3 players without being touched. GRRRRRR....

Bennell with the snap from 40, but hits the post!

It's amazing what happens when Dunn plays forward. oh and fantastic by Cheney

 

[Wonaeamirri33]

Dunny rolls it through from 25 after the pass from Davey....

THREE QUARTER TIME

St K 11-7-73

We're close enough. Need a fast start this quarter though...

 

[Bartram_Class]

Could be a big month coming up for Cheney, has been good today without being great, but with Grimes on the sidelines, has to make the position his own.

Haven't won a quarter yet, need to hit them hard in the last.

 

[DonMare]

Great effort to stay with the Saints at their home ground so far.

I reckon we need the first goal to be any chance of an upset. C'mon Dees!

 

[UR Petterded]

Know that players love to dribble it though these days but Dunny took it just a little too far. Couldn't believe it went through. Good work

I reckon he might get a week or two for his hits on Goddard.

Boys are fighting it out really well, which is great to see, but by fck I'd love us to win!

Dunny's been very good - will this performance make DB realise he's a natural forward!?!?!

 

[ahh_zombies]

The AFL website matchday commentary says Watts injured his hamstring, is that correct or have they mistaken him for Grimes?

 

[omit]

Grimes did his hamstring. not Watts

 

[Wonaeamirri33]

Oh God... Frawley stepped over the line on the kick-in after Jonah rushed the point. Very lucky to escape without paying for that so far. And another rushed behind just then...

mistaken for grimes

 

[Wonaeamirri33]

Set shot for Hayes from 35, and he kicks it. First goal of the last quarter goes the other way, AGAIN

Demons 8-9-57
St K 12-9-81

 

[DonMare]

I never understand why they choose to go so close to the line and risk overstepping it. Just kick the ball from a meter behind the line.

 

[Andy_Mac]

Jesus Spencer.

He is terrible

 

[Wonaeamirri33]

Loose marking hurting us badly in the early stages here. The accountability's nowhere near what it needs to be. And disposal poor. Dal Santo marks uncontested around the 50, passes inside to Stanley, but he misses to the left.

Oh crap, and Hayes just snapped one through on the run. That's a killer...

who the **** let spencer kick the ball?

****

 

[Fairtex]

We put in a gallant effort... scoreboard is gonna tell a lie though.
