Unbelievable. Jamar punches it through from a ruck contest and is called for deliberate. These Umps need to be taken out back and shot.

That is actually the rule, not the umpire's fault.

Jake Spencer is horrible.

So whats Mathew Bate's excuse this week? He is such an ordinary footballer.Jetta is terrible! Joel Mac is lost out there. rivers not sure what he's doing!

Someone said in another thread that Bate is our best forward, I guess that says it all about where we are right now.

Why oh why did we extend Bailey's contract?????? It's not as if he was a wanted man, this will be his first and only time as a head coach of an AFL club. Everybody's lauding the board and the direction it's taking, however i reckon they have really stuffed this one up. Bailey simply isn't good enough to be a head coach.

That's it, I'm totally off Bailey. We have had all the opportunities and advantages we could ask for and have just been treading water.

Time for a change.

I reckon it was a payoff for agreeing to tank last year.

I can't handle another wooden spoon.

the ways the crows & tigers are going I would not be surprised at all... Top Four, what a joke.

Seriously, our coaching staff are crap - Bailey is cheap, that why we can't win.

If Garry Lyon isn't thinking about stepping up into the job now, when we need some heart, then we are going nowhere....

Where can I find a copy of this rule? I must read it!

If you punch the ball out on the full from a ruck contest, it is a free kick to the opposition.

Bailey has done his part cleaning house now its time for someone to bring the side forward. I think Bailey still has a part with the club, right not I dont like him as coach.

Posted

So a 35 point loss, the game was there to win at 3 quarter time. Only one team wanted to win. sorry i've nearly had all i can take

Only consolation, we're getting good at all the other club songs...

Disappointing. Capable of much better.

Not sure but the guys from 'On the Couch' apparently spoke to the Geish about it this week and confirmed it...

Random!

But it wasn't out on the full. It was through the goals. Also, this is exactly what Trengove did against PA in Darwin. How was it a point then and a free today?

Do us a favour Bailey, please resign.

Why would he??? He's still got 1.5 years to go. It's the MFC brains trust who idiotically decided to give him a contract extension.

Bailey needs to go, but who would we replace him with??? I would dearly love Paul Roos to coach us, but that's really far-fetched. Who else is there? Maybe we get Peter Sumich to captain-coach. 2 Birds with one stone, new coach and a new FF.

Yeah we keep fooling ourselves with all these "great" players, but truth is we're a crap team.

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

    Join us LIVE on Monday night at 8:30pm—note that this special time is just for this week due to prior commitments. We'll break down the Match SIM against North Melbourne and wrap up the preseason with insights into training and our latest recruits.

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo. The play start time was brought forward from the initial 11am bounce, due to the high temperatures forecast.  The match sim will consist of four 25-minute qu

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the scorching morning heat to bring you the following observations of Wednesday's preseason training session from Gosch's Paddock. HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today.
