We are being crucified by umpires or is it just me being frustrated

I have been frustrated by them too.

Aussie should have been rewarded for his tackle.

Jamar got his back broken by Tippert, and had a free given against him.

Moloney should have been given an in the back near our F50, the ball spills and they kick a goal at the other end.

I don't think we have been as bad as the score indicates. However, our defensive work has been deplorable without Rivers holding the unit together.

I mean, seriously, anyone who said anything remotely like "we can win this game" is a complete idiot. We beat Fremantle, not Geelong. We lost this game before it started. I'm cursing I just wasted 20 minutes of my time in Tokyo watching this tripe. Valenti is good though.

This has deteriorated in to utter rubbish, we can barely get a clean possession.

Is Adelaide just some weird back hole of football for the Melbourne F C.

Why is it we cannot at least look competitive over there? One of the major issues I thought the new coach had was getting us to not [censored] ourselves when we face a hostile crowd, especially in Adelaide.

Why is it we can beat them at our lowest ebb last year at the 'G but no matter what we are doing, we travel over there and get bent over?

Morton 3 goals is a good sign so far.

We are a pathetic rabble. We play one good quarter and it all goes down hill from there. We don't even try to look competitive, and our efforts at clearing the ball out of the backline are quite frankly embarrassing.

And that Cameron Bruce, our captain and one of the highest paid players in the team can't kick an easy goal, is an absolute disgrace.

Oh and has Buckley hit a single target today?

Thank god for Aussie and Morton.

Going by the stats it looks as though Jamar is having his usual influence?

And going by the free kick count of 19-8 in favour of the Crows it looks like the maggots are having their usual influence too (although I don't suggest the result would be any different)!

Why don't we get home town decisions like some of these interstate clubs get?

    BLOODY BLUES by Meggs

    The conclusion to Narrm’s home and away season was the inevitable let down by the bloody Blues  who meekly capitulated to the Bombers.   The 2024 season fixture handicapped the Demons chances from the get-go with Port Adelaide, Brisbane and Essendon advantaged with enough gimme games to ensure a tough road to the finals, especially after a slew of early season injuries to star players cost wins and percentage.     As we strode confidently through the gates of Prin

    2024 Player Reviews: #5 Christian Petracca

    Melbourne’s most important player who dominated the first half of the season until his untimely injury in the Kings Birthday clash put an end to his season. At the time, he was on his way to many personal honours and the club in strong finals contention. When the season did end for Melbourne and Petracca was slowly recovering, he was engulfed in controversy about a possible move of clubs amid claims about his treatment by the club in the immediate aftermath of his injury.

    2024 Player Reviews: #2 Jacob van Rooyen

    Strong marking youngster who plays forward and relief ruck, continued to make significant strides forward in his career path. The Demons have high hopes for van Rooyen as he stakes his claim to become an elite attacking forward.

    LIVE AND LET DIE by Meggs

    The Demons’ impressive late season charge to finals will most likely come unstuck this Saturday evening when the Bombers blow up the also-ran Blues in the Ikon Park double-header.   To mangle McCartney, what does it matter to ya? To have any chance to play next week Narrm has got a job to do and needs to do it well.  We’ve got to give the Pie sheilas hell, say live and let die! It’s Indigenous Round for this game and the chance to celebrate and engage with Aboriginal and Torres

    Had to shoulder more responsibility as the club’s injury concerns deepened but needs to step up more as he closes in on 100 games. Date of Birth: 31 May 2000 Height: 186cm Games MFC 2024: 21 Career Total: 95 Goals MFC 2024: 6 Career Total: 34 Games CDFC: 1 Goals CDFL: 0

    Date of Birth: 12 November 1999 Height: 197cm Games MFC 2024: 20 Career Total: 82 Goals MFC 2024: 9 Career Total: 28 Brownlow Medal Votes 3 Failed to fulfill the promise of his breakout six goal effort against the Tigers in 2023 and was generally disappointing as a key forward. It remains to be seen whether Simon Goodwin will persevere with him in attack or return him to the backline where he was an important cog in the club’s 2021 premiership success.

    2024 Player Reviews: #22 Blake Howes

    After a bright start to the season, playing mostly in defence, Howes seemed to lose his way in midseason but fought back with some good performances at Casey and finished the year back at AFL level. One to watch in 2024. Date of Birth: 7 March 2003 Height: 191cm Games MFC 2024: 15 Career Total:  15 Goals MFC 2024: 0 Career Total:  0 Games CDFC 2024: 6 Goals CDFC 2024: 0

    2024 Player Reviews: #33 Tom Fullarton

    Originally an NBL basketballer with the Brisbane Bullets, he moved across town in 2019 to the AFL Lions where he played 19 games before crossing to Melbourne where he was expected to fill a role as a back up ruckman/key forward. Unfortunately, didn’t quite get there although he did finish equal sixth in Casey’s best and fairest award. Date of Birth: 23 February 1999 Height: 198cm Games CDFC: 14 Goals CDFL: 13

    Sadly, had to wrap up a great career in midstream on the back of multiple concussions which culminated in the Maynard hit in the 2023 Qualifying Final. His loss to the club was inestimable over and above his on field talent given his character and leadership qualities, all of which have been sorely missed.
