Higgins gets his head slammed into the ground and still no free kick.
They missed two super-obvious frees 20m out right in front that quarter (the Gawn push on Owens and the McDonald HTB- when he clearly didn’t get first touch on the mark and then didn’t dispose of the ball correctly when tackled- and they could have made a big difference.
 
They’re marking everything. And when even Petracca is nailing his shots for goal, you know they’re ON.
I was actually hoping Petracca got that goal, he looked so traumatised. Still reckon he's got PTSD. At least playing us he'll get an easy ride.

I saw it and looked away assuming a shot for goal was coming up. Look back and the ball is going the other way. Did the umps seriously not pay that? God I'm sick of this.
Appalling absolutely disgraceful
The club needs to call this out
IF this was up the other end a free for sure
Just sick of these pathetic green maggotts
 
This is what I don't get.

You don't have mid, you don't have forward, ball is in D50, why are you going back to switch when you don't have position on the ground? That's stupid safe decisions when you're behind, go for territory and kill it for a reset.

Mentally they're not all there this game.
Everytime we kick down the line we turn it over, need to do something different. We don't have the height for it
 
To all you fans who say we should not get TDK, well i say we should, open your eyes and see Marshall is getting thrashed by Gawn and look what Van Roohan is doing, just rag dolling him. At least TDK would be having a go and a lot younger and skillful. Marshall past it
 
Half time
5 goals down.
Good news being: They're not exploding as they should be if they were a competent club. So there is a chance if we have the ability to give a shit and play footy.

Well Melbourne is one of the few clubs in AFL capable of a StKilda like implosion. So no one would be surprised!

We are painfully out of touch as a team, with no leadership at all. Playing on quickly when we need to pause for a beat, playing on slowly when we need to be incisive, half the team hasn't touched the ball and the other half are so uncomposed, it looks like they've got jet lag. What they do at training is anyone's guess, and if Ross doesnt do something about this, his regime is going the way of Ratten's and then we're in trouble.

Where is the STFU emoji when you need one
You fox whingers are worse than me , Fact
Just be glad you’re not next to the guy we were next to in the first quarter (before we moved, to get away from him). Was having a meltdown about every 30 seconds. Going off his nut.

Bloke is a heart attack waiting to happen.
 
Stat of the half, Ryan Byrnes has 7 touches and -16 metres gained
 
When we focus on running (no idea why, coz we don’t really have anyone fast except Collard and Hill), we have a physically inferior team, getting bullied all over the ground.

To be honest, I’m also over Ross Lyon as a coach, have been a supporter in the past. Talks a good game, but can’t identify our weakness and still play a crap style football (stop start long bomb down the line) with the same experienced players making mistakes (Hill, Jones, Clark, Byrnes, Marshall who can’t ruck). Rather play an attacking style with young players.. taking the game on for a change
Have been to a lot of games this year, and we just have no overlap run whatsoever. This idea we are a good running side is a complete myth.

Just an incredibly stagnant football side. NAS and Hill the only blokes who look for a give and go or to play on.

We play such a predictable uninispiring brand of football under this coaching group.
