Lol, are you that nuffy that was saying Fly was out coached last week when we won by 73 points and couldn't name a single thing that showed how he was outcoached? It was just the vibe, right?

WHE kicks that goal, we probably steal that.

Actually I think Melbourne literally focused on cutting the Pies attack from their forward 50 and center.... Pies lost every contested mark there and every Pies fumbled handballs and kicks they usually execute in that area. Combo of good defense and bad skills today.
Mihoceck looks like he was trying to carry our forward line against a good backline.
No JDG, Elliott, Sidebottom, McStay, Ginnivan, yet Melbourne could only muster a 4 pt win. We need the break, Pendles looked tired, Moore sore, and most of the guys looked way off their games. A loss can be a good loss, and it's what we needed, l think.
He did F all, typical Grundy performance.

Agree.
In essence this is 35 to 45 point win for Dee's. Pies soundly beaten, Dee's game plan worked but also Pies uncharactersistic fumbles and turn overs... Pendles have 3 direct kicks to Melbourne players with no Pies near it.... it's a tale of both sides playing good and one playing bad.
We were completely smashed all over the ground. Amazing to think it was only 4 points in the end....

I think our selection committee have some questions to answer.
He is no CHF. Too small and at sea against a class backman. Hopefully McStay will allow him to play a less challenging role. Whatever he may have been trying to do today he didn't succeed, but as you suggest, there wasn't assistance coming from anyone else up forward, except maybe little Bobby Hill.
Melbourne had 10 more scoring shots, lol

Taught Cameron a lesson. I'd call the something.
Let's not overstate his performance.
the lack of impact of AJ made it easy for Melbourne to double team mihocek, mihocek had a poor one but AJ contributed to that
But our game plan of moving the ball quickly was dumb, considering that's what Melbourne wanted us to do. We should have been alot more precise with our kicking, instead of just kicking it quickly to no one, and Melbourne just have repeat forward 50 entries. It was ridiculous. Not sure if the instruction was to get the ball and just play on and kick it aimlessly to the opposition.
It's good to play quick tempo footy, but you also need to take a breath and assess the quick movement isn't working for us, so lets hold the ball a bit more and hit targets....
Ankle, but has the bye now to rest
Krueger/McStay need to come in. Mihocek needs help desperately.

Not so sure.
Demons have an effective defensive plan. Forget the standings.... Pies need to lift and ensure they have a plan against such defense.
