v Melbourne

[ROK Lobster]

Best qtr we have played this season, through the middle of the park. Still not sure what LRT adds to the team - nice mark he took sitting on his arse...

I agree brought the ball through the centre well, but still dropping it on Hall's head, which he will struggle to mark when he is double and triple teamed.

Still struggling in the center, Demon's won the clearances 12 - 6 in that 1/4.

Least that last half of the qtr was better - still not playing well but some OK signs.

Malceski needs to stick closer to Pickett but Nick is playing pretty well when he gets it.

[Bleed Red Blood]

Much of a nothing at the moment.

Pickett is killing us.

[NMWBloods]

We still look ordinary.

Goodes played well in the first qtr, less so in the second, but needs to do the simple things well, like kicking relatively easy goals.

Getting well beaten in the centre again.

J Bolton having a very poor game. Ablett doing very little.

Malceski has done some useful things - is he on Pickett? If so needs to follow him more closely.

Davis has done some good things, but again they ignore him too much.

Schneider has been playing well.

Mathews great work on Johnstone.

Kennelly has helped a bit with our run through the centre.

Jolly doing okay.

C Bolton has done pretty well, as has Buchanan.

I've liked Richards game a lot.

Hall should be killing Miller more at those throw ins.

Hall should be destroying Miller in every aspect of the game. Our poor delivery and inability to provide space are major reasons why he's not.

Sums up the season to date. So much effort for such little return.

[punter257]

our decision making is shizen and we just need alot of blokes to make a contribution in the 2nd half - too many passengers today

we're falling down across half forward - we need to move it in quicker and give hall, magic, ROK and davis a chance one on one with their opponent and maybe some space to work with

kennelly, bolton, barry and schneider are getting lots of it but we should be using it better

we're crap around the clearances today

[Glenn]

Add to many dumb free kicks, not sticking with players etc

[NMWBloods]

Before this game I thought it would be a danger one, I thought so more while watching the early part, and I am now more convinced. The biggest benefit we have is they are 2 players down.

[Legs Akimbo]

...and still chambers is yet to get a kick.

[Glenn]

Sydney are goneski...and dare I say unless a dramatic form reversal happens will struggle to make the eight

[mpr104]

Four weeks into the season and we still look very ordinary.
