far far far with k k k on the end!!

Twice Fitzy was on the lead but dropped it as the sun was in his eyes. Two 50's we;ve given away in 2 mins. 2 goals 2 Docks to 1 point Dees...........

saw scullys lightning hands, would have set up scoring opp but for a holding free against us. bennell done some nice things. nervous shot at goal by trengove. morton is class.

dockers giving themselves more scoring opps. we are struggling at half fwd

 

Defenders are doing ok but we are going backwards to try and run through the back half but we end up just turning it over as there looks like very little movement up the ground.

Again skills under pressure are so frustrating. Finally got some run, McDonald (Brissie) handballed to Morton who was smashed as soon as he touched the ball, turn over goal!!!

struggling going fwd. couple of bad clangers by joelmac.

Was hoping we might have improved over the summer. Another long season ahead.

does anyone know why Bell isn't playing??

fair go, its the first quarter of the NAB cup.


After hearing some nice reports over the summer and hoping for a decent contest tonight

well I guess we are going to battle getting out of the bottom 4

Another goal now and we are 27 points behind this isn't looking good early

Bennell has made some bad mistakes early, loving scullys hands, nothing looking good forward

Another turn over coming out of defence, turn over.... GOAL.

Our skills let us down but at the same time (it is hard to see up the ground on TV) it seems like there is just nothing up the ground for the defenders to kick too.

28 to 1 point 1min to go in 1st.

Ugly. Just go long down the centre. Can't understand where Bailey is comming from in his coaching!


i do not know what people (on this site) were thinking when they had the dees finishing with at least 7-8 wins this season. I hope the Dees can start playing some good football once he grows up :(

Scully great hands in close along the wing. Shocking free kick against him for holding it.

Dees make turn over... Rivers running on to it.... point! 1st is done.

28 vs 2 points Freo up.

Watching this quarter was like banging my head against the wall.... painful and pointless.

On the bright side, Scully's hands are bloody amazing!!!

Knowing a whole year of this is making me Sick

Worst side so far in the Nab Cup

wow were playing worse then richmond. if were gona play like this im already putting my house that we will win the spoon yet again


I think DB has to become a bit more attacking with his coaching. Always putting numbers behind the ball, and we go forward to an empty forward line every single time. Im not sure how that will win us games.

So our game plan is to once again play 2 behind the ball, have no forward line and try and run it forward........FAIL!

If that's the game plan, It's going to be a long year.

Again.

 

No structure No workable fowardline. In fact our whole team deserted our

half of the ground and spent it in the dockers half. Very very very concerning a quarter

with just 2 points I expected more.

  • Thank You Simon Goodwin

    As Demon fans, we’ve ridden a rollercoaster of emotions over the decades; the heartbreaks, the near misses, the wooden spoons, and the endless waiting. But through it all, we clung to hope. And then came Simon Goodwin. Before he ever wore red and blue, he was a champion in his own right. A five-time All-Australian, two-time Best and Fairest, and two-time premiership hero and Captain with Adelaide, Simon Goodwin was always destined to lead. When he transitioned from the field to the coach's box, first as an assistant at Essendon, he began shaping a new legacy.

  • PREVIEW: Western Bulldogs

    Long ago and far away, the Melbourne Football Club replaced its coach in difficult circumstances after the team suffered a devastating loss. In the aftermath, I penned the following words: “Then came the politics, the intrigue, the axing, the sound of the football world laughing at a club, the circling of the media vultures, the reinvention of history, the anger, the irony, the pathos, the hurt on the face of the president, the dignified departure of the coach, and the determination of the newly appointed caretaker.” Today, we’re back in the same place although one difference here is that the coach who was terminated this time is Simon Goodwin, the man who four years ago

  • REPORT: West Coast

    The Charles Dickens novel, A Tale of Two Cities, opens with, “It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, …”  This phrase highlights many of the significant challenges that humanity encounters in life, ranging from experiencing remarkable highs to living in times of despair. This is a concept that should resonate with all supporters of the Melbourne Football Club this morning as they reflect on its comprehensive 83-point victory over the struggling West Coast Eagles at Marvel Stadium. The outcome proved beyond doubt that they are the worst of clubs and that we are the best of the worst.

  • PREGAME: Western Bulldogs

    With only 3 games to go, all against Top 8 fancies, the Demons face a daunting task as they return to the MCG when they play the Western Bulldogs. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • POSTGAME: West Coast

    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.
