3 years of pure, unadulterated rubbish, but at least we got some reward for it.

This year we get nothing, absolutely nothing, for being embarrassingly pathetic against a team that has been nothing short of terrible this season.

 

Is it really worth the (lack of) effort to tank for the No.4 pick?

 

BRUCE MUST GO!! He is ruining and otherwise (usually) capable back line, would rather Cheney.

Can someone let me know when we take the field- they're just showing Adelaide training on Foxtel at the moment


Well I've turned that shite off, wasted half an afternoon, not going to waste another.

For those who were saying they are young etc

Age has nothing to do with trying.

As for who is our next captain..... pray Jnr can play for another 5 years cos we are rudderless out there without him.

We are a laughing stock today on a stand alone Sunday game. Pathetic.

we arent even chasing, manning up nothing!

 

It's bloody hard watching Scully grab the ball, weave out of traffic and pin point a perfect pass to our premier leading forward in Bate, and then watch the ball go straight through his hands and bounce off his head.

Looks like we've saved Richmond, West Coast and Adelaide from the ignominy of the spoon.


Must drop ,Bartram,Bruce,Rivers,Miller,Mckenzie,Jetta,Jones.

Bring in, Mc Donald,Sylvia,Jurrah,Wona,Gysberts,Cheney,Bennell

Will Bailey survive this season? God I hope not, we can do better, much better.

He's already signed up for next year, great move huh? Especially by a club that can't afford to ditch a coach mid-contract...

I think I'll start the rough draft for the three words about every player vs Adelaide.

Bruce - PLEASE PLEASE RETIRE

That's all I got so far

pies were correct, last week was our grannie

pathetic so far

Geez could have done with someone who can use the ball (Gysberts), someone who doesn't always turn the ball over out of defence (out: Bruce, in: Cheney), someone with some dash who can kick goals (Bennell)... our selection committee have not got it right for weeks

Adelaide must be cackling like evil madmen in the box, when they see us use Bruce as a linkman out of defense.

The age old debate of To Jamar Alone or Not To Jamar Alone shall resume this week. Can't wait for Paul Johnson next week :rolleyes:

Thank god for Grimes. He is the only thing keeping me from ripping the TV off the wall and throwing it out the window.

What rubbish- had 7 possessions in the first quarter and was just cactus- hopeless,your judgement is definately not like mine. Hopeless short kicks into dangerland.Pathetic performance by the club.The whole lot of them should hang their heads.Bruce is finished-too slow- game has caught up with him-should retire NOW.

I dunno, I think Bruce has been one of Adelaide's best...

This is pretty terrible atm. Rubbish midfield, no hunger, too slow. Again slow start with too many handballs and weak tackling. All the things we say we needed to improve on we have failed in

Not good. These performances should be behind us.

Am not impressed with effort, skill level or anything about our performance to be honest, but at the same time, I think some of you are getting a little carried away. Just last game you would have been singing our praises, a little perspective required.


Can we be a little bit more shit in the second half please? How about a few more turnovers? Don't think I've seen quite enough overusing it or passing it straight to the opposition. There's also been far too much going hard at the ball, perhaps a few more instances in the middle where we've got three blokes, none of them go for the ball and the opposition runs off with it uncontested? Just a few more mistackles would be good too. That'd be great. I don't think we're being humiliated quite enough yet.

[its mainly our intensity and desire thats not up to AFL standard.

Somethings wrong when you can only lift when you play a Collingwood/Bulldogs.

Those comments about its our Grand final when we play them hurt, because maybe they are true!

Truth hurts.

Bring back Alistair Nicholson. After all, we haven't won a game at AAMI Stadium since he retired.

Seriously, I love you Melbourne, but get f'ed with this AAMI Stadium garbage. It's a ground, it has grass, and goal posts, and a centre circle. The bogans are off putting, sure, but they never seem to bother you when we play at the MCG against Collingwood.

Garland been good, Frawley on Dangerfield but could've chopped out others a couple of times, Bate has been great...as for the rest SHOCKING, AWFUL, HORRIBLE!!

Not switched on, not hard enough at the ball...how many times do we have to watch 3 crows go in desperation for a loose ball while the dees all stand back and watch and wait to lay tackles that the crows players slip out of every time.

Turnovers!! What are some of thoughts with the kicking guys??? Kicking to contests, at team mates feet when they are 10 mtrs clear, hittng crows on the chest......

Losing is one thing, having young kids is one thing, whatever the excuses how about just applying pressure, getting in for the ball and hitting a few targets.

Another game over before the oven can even warm my pie!! :(

Very disappointing Demons.

  • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

    Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.

  • PREGAME: St. Kilda

    With just over two weeks until their opening match of the 2026 AFL Premiership season, the Demons are already well on the path to redemption and have the Saints firmly in their sights ahead of their mid-March clash at the MCG. What do you think the team will look like when they run out on to the G?

  • REPORT: Richmond

    Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.

    The Dees ran another clinic for the second week in a row as they easily accounted for the Tigers in the lightning interrupted shortened match at Mars Stadium in Ballarat.

  • GAMEDAY: Richmond

    It's Game Day and the 2026 AFL Premiership season is almost upon us as the Demons take to the field for their final practice match before the first ball is kicked in anger in 16 days time. What are you expecting to see from the Dees today as they take on the Tigers at Mars Stadium in Ballarat?
