Autopsy Round 20 2024 - Melbourne Demons vs GWS Giants, 7.30pm AEST Saturday 27 July, MCG

[Maximus 2011]

We simply are the worst wet weather team in the comp. DISGRACEFUL

 

[MelbourneGWS]

Geez we are getting taught a lesson from a side that is not even in the final 8. Thought Kingsley would have us primed from the start, given how important this game is to our top 4 chances

 

[Giant Strides]

FMD, need to pull our fingers out!

 

[Section226]

Understandable, but Taylor seems just that little bit off-pace with his disposals and movement.

Same happened with Coniglio first week back from injury.

 

[Adam Giant]

We are the worry, playing crap

Can only get better from here.

 

[Colonial]

Pathetic

 

[Giant Strides]

FMD, need to pull our fingers out!

And umps need to put their Melbourne bias away.

 

[Adam Giant]

For a team that allegedly is full of talent, we miss an inordinate amount of 2m handball targets.

 

[Orange Agent]

Their zone is killing us. Need more pace behind the ball. Bad choice for Fonti to be sub. Jones maybe needs to play wing.

 

[Maximus 2011]

Understandable, but Taylor seems just that little bit off-pace with his disposals and movement.

Same happened with Coniglio first week back from injury.

Pretty hard when Melbourne have had 350 inside 50's in the first qtr! Tom Green, Callaghan, Ward, Peatling, Ward ineffective

 

[Land of the Giants]

Not looking good at all.

 

[Giant Pete]

Predictable… same story all year… smashed at centre bounce. Poor in the contest. Chasing arse all game.

For a team that allegedly is full of talent, we miss an inordinate amount of 2m handball targets.

They seem to be coached to do the handballs even if the target is already tackled. It is always stupid and an issue with the "tsunami".

 

[Giant Pete]

Season is just about over.

 

[Maximus 2011]

Apparently our game style is the same in the dry as the wet. We have 5 handballs backwards before trying to go forward. Surely we take ground in the wet. This is taught in junior footy

 

[Orange Agent]

Should have expected this start from them. They we terrible last week. Our slow players are looking very slow tonight. The pressure is all from them.

 

[MelbourneGWS]

This is turning into a nightmare for us

Not looking good at all.

Had visions of a convincing win that would have cemented our top 4 spot. Disappointed at our efforts so far - Melbourne has our measure. We really need to turn this around second quarter, or the match will be over by half time

 

[Colonial]

 

[BarryAglett]

It's a game of adjustments...so adjust the hell out of it!

 

[dlanod]

Nice second effort by Cadman. So many of our mids lose their feet and stay down watching.

 

[MelbourneGWS]

It’s like watching the same movie again and again and again - surely some of what we have been continuously saying here would have been picked by the coaching team in their match reviews?

 

[Maximus 2011]

Nice second effort by Cadman. So many of our mids lose their feet and stay down watching.

Happens every wet game. I went and watched them in Launceston against the Hawks and I think Giants players would have slipped over at least 50 times throughout the game

 

[Section226]

Whoa - didn't think Bedford had the range.

Nice kick.

 

[taurus]

Much better with the midfield change.

Our speed is our greatest strength so let's keep it up.

 

[MelbourneGWS]

How did we f### up that goal?
