Another clearance to Valenti..... He is playing really well... He is a little terrier.... Tackles like a rabid dog....

North are tightening the screws now...

Double the Melbourne score....

There is not a hope in hell we will win this match....

If we do, then Darren Crocker will line all his blokes up and stab them in the face with a knitting needle one by one....

North cannot possibly lose this match the way Melbourne are delivering it into their F50

im glad you never coached me when i wes a lad, knitting needle in the face.

PJ copping a pasting on foxsports....

Dean Bailey learnt his lessons from last week.

Grimes out, Petterd nullified down back.

No crumbers up forward, and a whole forward line that cannot pick the ball up below their knees (Miller, Johnson, Newton, Bate).

This is unwatchable rubbish, and we will surely lose.

PJ copping a pasting on foxsports....

Matches the pasting he is copping on the field.....

OMFG....

Melbourne are running the clock down..... LOL

This game is a disgrace..... Almost laughable....

30 inside 50's

3 goals

That is a 10% conversion rate....

To all those who think we may win this match, look above.... LOL

at the game, impressed with colin. The club can feel vindicating in all their decisions surrounding him imo

I am going to play my game, horrible game to watch, Mcnamara only thing that made me stay till half time.

Please finish this season now.

I don't mean to keep going on about the bloke, but he just stands out.... And it isn't for good reasons.... I will try not to mention him again today... Unless he does something good...

The whole team stand out, really. Actually, that's not fair to a handful of players, but as a 22 vs 22 you get my point? Newton, Miller, Martin,PJ would probably all have a lot more confidence as forwards if there was any chance we were playing for the 4 points, not for "experimenting."

OMFG....

This game is a disgrace..... Almost laughable....

Which is worse from your view? Last week or this week? Obviously there's less crowd, and the game isn't looking like it'll be won after the final siren. But those things aside...

Valenti has 15 leads the match with 15 posessions..... Also has 7 tackles and numerous clearances....

He is having a great match.....

Oh god.... Foxtel are showing all of Melbourne errors by hand and by foot..... This is not good viewing...

OMFG....

This game is a disgrace..... Almost laughable....

Agree... 22points down... 1.45 on clock... a kick just outside fifty.....and PJ turns around and kicks backwards?? And we spend the rest of the quarter running the clock down....thats just a bit too over the top.. even for me

PJ , Junior, Newton, Miller,

Sad , really sad,

sylvia is a star! would have to be our best player of the season.. what a gun!

newton and PJ are an absolute JOKE.. i just hope they dont get much game time next year when we are actually trying to win!

i know a lot of people like Martin but i think he is pretty over rated.. we really really need a star ruckman!

Petterd has really found some form the last month.. i think he will be a handy forward down the track

Yeah I like him has really come good lately....

I can't remember when I've been so ashamed to be a Demons supporter. That rubbish before half-time, winding the clock down, was embarrassing. Dwayne Russell & co are laughing at the way Melbourne is playing. Galling to be mocked by someone like him.

Do all those pro-tankers think the team can unlearn this unappealing style of football? Are we gaining supporters w. this rubbish? Will anyone ever want to play for this team of duffers, coached badly?

Oh god this is a boring game. Not sure what I'm doing here to be honest.

your dreamin man, did you watch the blues beat the cats, do think there fans are thinking about 2007 performances.

The day I saw in the paper that Newton had been resigned, I remember thinking "are you joking!?"

He is probably one of the worst players in the league. You all know how there are some players who are exceptional at VFL level, but just can't make it in the AFL? Well, he is a decent VFL player. What can that tell us about his ability in the AFL.

The only things that really concerns me is that after a season of mixing the team around every week and playing guys out of position, how will the coaches fix this over summer???

Is it possible that Melbourne will gain the PP, get some really good young draft picks as well as Scully, and then suddenly turn it all around and be a different side to watch next year??

It is a concern.... Tanking does nothing for the players.... They look confused....

Hopefully with a full pre-season behind guys like Watts, Jurrah, Petterd etc. we will have a forward line that can take a mark and kick a winning score...

After this year is over, I never want to see this sort of [censored] again!!!!!

You know what would be nice.....

If we lost to Freo.... Then lost to Carlton....

Then put in the strongest squad we had and smashed St Kilda.....

What a way to finish the year off....

A bloke can dream can't he....

ok, wouldn't mind if we kicked a few goals now.

welcome tom scully an absolute certainty now

This quarter is being dedicated to Tom Scully!
