Game Day Desperate Dees V Bevo's Dogs 17/3/24 1.00 pm MCG

[TheBont]

This is why you should never buy into the pre-season hype

I never did. People are blinded by the love of the club though which is fair enough.

 

[ScragCity]

New season, same old Dogs. See ya next year guys (Hopefully with a new coach).

 

[adogsfan5]

Our “pace”. hasn’t broken any lines. Theirs has.

 

[Substance]

Dale is having an absolute shocker.

Another one season wonder.

 

[threenewpadlocks]

In the balance of fairness, English missing to absolute gimmies cost us more than any other player

 

[MaxiBont]

I’m staring to think it’s a roster and a coaching problem rather than one or the other

 

[Merlins Revenge]

Boy am I glad Vandameer played this game! We couldn’t live without those repeat sprints!

 

[dergert]

Backline held up that quarter.

Too bad the rest of the team were shit

 

[compact72]

TBF we looked cooked. This is Melbourne's second game, so their fitness would be above ours

 

[hatescaptcha]

It’s a long year so hoping it’s just about managing Sanders. Don’t want to cook the kid early. That’s surely the only reasoning behind it.

This game is just cementing my opinion further that our biggest issue is in the coaches chair

I tried justifying it or giving the benefit of the doubt to the match committee, but Caleb Daniel

and Jack Macrae apparently not being best 22 in favour of players like VDM and McNeil is absolutely pathetic and classic too cute thinking likely from the head coach. Really disappointing

 

[lachy]

Fine going through the bottom 6 what about English, Dale, Naughton, Williams

Apart from that handball that got us the point vs Brisbane in that semifinal , I don't think I've seen vanders deliberately score .. he is **** on a bill in fwd line .. why we persist with him there is beyond me

 

[0utsider]

I’m staring to think it’s a roster and a coaching problem rather than one or the other

One causes the other, half these flogs would have been delisted by now under any other coach

 

[Leon]

Lachie McNeill.

I’d ask if Beveridge will ever learn, but it would be rhetorical question.

 

[GetDimmaBack]

Sanders probably cramping...

 

[Struggle]

Sanders getting subbed out before working himself to full body cramp like Clay Smith

did in game 1

Says a lot

 

[Dazb86]

Surely Sanders being subbed off has to be related to fitness/injury? Would be inexplicable if its not when you have the likes of McNeil and Vandermeer still on.

Feels like a rage quit after the turnover

 

[Dogs Rule]

We had our chance for a fresh start and a fresh game plan, new ideas and we squibbed it. Went a bit of the way, but too cowardly to go the whole way.

 

[geoffjennings79]

Bont 16 to half time, 3 more that quarter.

Oliver 32 to 3/4 time.

Did they shut Bont down, or their free-wheeling mids just completely on top?

 

[ossie_21]

Our first home game is also in Ballarat, which is a disgrace on its own. What better place to go 0-2 to start the season which did have some hope, until today where the same shit as the last 2 years has happened.

Excitement was replaced by nervousness, which is now turning into disappointment.

Give me pick 2 and he goes to the Eagles done deal for English

If melbourne didn’t play last week I feel like this is closer, they just seem sharper.
