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.

  • GAMEDAY: Richmond

    It's Game Day on Friday night. ANZAC Eve. The big stage at the ‘G. The Demons return to the spotlight for one of our most significant nights on the football calendar, taking on the Tigers in a clash that always carries extra weight given the gravity of occasion of the commemoration of the ANZAC Spirit. Under the lights, in front of a packed house, this is where moments are made. Can the Dees rise to the occasion and deliver on the big stage, or will Richmond spoil the night? All the build-up, discussion, and in-game reactions here. Go Dees.

  • NON-MFC: Round 7

    Round 7 is here, with the ANZAC commemoration games taking centre stage. Who are you tipping this week, and which results would be most favourable for the Demons?

  • PREVIEW: Richmond

    Who would have imagined, when the season kicked off early last month, that Melbourne would emerge from the opening six weeks with wins over both Queensland powerhouses? At the time, Gold Coast and Brisbane were the competition’s early pace-setters, the flavours of the month, and the prospect of the Demons toppling both within the course of a fortnight seemed remote. Yet here they are, banking those scalps alongside home victories over two traditional Victorian rivals and building a quietly impressive resume.

    The Dees hit the big Friday night stage for the first and only time this season when they take on the Tigers under lights on ANZAC Eve at the G. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • REPORT: Brisbane

    Before Sunday, the last time the Brisbane Lions had walked onto the turf of the Melbourne Cricket Ground, they celebrated the pinnacle of the sport - an AFL premiership secured in emphatic fashion for the second consecutive year.

  • CASEY: Brisbane

    From the outset, the Casey Demons lacked any spring in their steps. They were out-hustled and out-bustled and finally outplayed by the Brisbane Lions by 38 points on their home turf in perfect conditions at Casey Fields.
