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.

    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.

    We have failed to win a quarter of footy. Im safe to say no team has lost all four quarters and come away with the points.

  • Quote

    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?

    MFC are where they belong... making a hard move towards bottom place.

    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.

    Bate = glorified Newton

    Nickname should be MIA

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

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
