You can not be serious Melbourne.

Wow.

 
 

Hard to understand why they're playing like this. Just can't get going. When even players like Hibberd look off the pace you know something is wrong.

I think Melbourne has just broken the world record for how quickly a team has undone a year of good work. All it took was 30 minutes.


What the actual..

This has to be a dream nothing this bad could happen in reality

I see it but I don't believe it?  Hope the real Melbourne comes out for the second quarter!  It's a long way back!

It is, but we have done it before and they are good at capitulating.

Come on DEMONS

 

The missed free kicks are amazing and gifts given to pies.  But pies do start fast, we have to fight back now.

 

Has there ever been a club that gets so big headed so quickly. Playing like they are already locked into the finals. No chance today. They simply don't care


If we don't turn this around today, I almost think the players deserve for Adelaide to lose. 

4 minutes ago, leave it to deever said:

Lets be honest it doesnt matter if we make finals anyway.

I want to drop max. He is taking up space.

 

Hunt can nick off too

Midfield is getting flogged. 

Maynard dominating Oliver. There's no other plan. 

Least you can get numbers to the ball.


That was slick

Wow what a terrible first quarter.  Ots not going to happen Melbourne. We do need to win this. No tackling pressure.  

Maxy getting outmarked by cox. Come on Melbourne get going 

Ok. Best possible start. Now another 10 of those thanks.

We were 28 points behind midway through the 2nd quarter on QBD.

I'm not watching, so I don't know how bad it is precisely, but let's not give up just yet.

We're waiting too far off our men in the zone. We can't make up the ground as the ball gets there, so Collingwood consistently have loose men to take the mark or receive the handpass.


Their transition out of defense and numbers on attack are killing us. They look like scoring every time they go forward. 

 

Jack Watts is a good kick at goal. I'll give him that.

BOG so far for us today. Him, Hogan, ANB, and maybe Petracca are the only ones so far who can hold their heads up.

    The Demons return to town fresh off a thumping win over the back-to-back wooden spooners, the West Coast Eagles, played in front of a sparse crowd at Marvel Stadium, the same venue that hosted last week's heartbreaking loss.

  • PREVIEW: West Coast

    It was bad enough that the Melbourne Football Club created yet another humiliating scenario inside its wretched season at Marvel Stadium last Sunday, but the final insult is that it has been commanded to return to the scene of the crime to inflict further punishment on its fans this week. Incidentally, if this match preview, of a game that promises to be one of the most unattractive fixtures in the history of the game, happens to cut out of your computer screen three quarters of the way through, it’s no coincidence. I’ll be mirroring the Demons’ lacklustre effort against St Kilda from last Sunday when they conceded the largest last quarter turnaround for victory in the history of the game.

  • REPORT: St. Kilda

    When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.
