I'm going to call AW again tonight I think. Tell them I called on the way home from the Hawthorn game and that that was WORSE.

I said after that game that we should sack him. Now if we don't sack him, we should be ashamed.

    If we keep playing like this we'll bloody well be this year's wooden spooners. I saw more fight out of the Gold Coast than out of this bunch of sissies.

    Big second half.

    And for some... CAREER defining

    BAILEY???

    Interesting to see that DemonsHQ stopped tweeting 13 minutes into the second quarter - methinks they were copping a lot of heat.

    No way would Malthouse or Roos want to coach this bunch of girls.

    Disagree. A Top Line coach would love to get his hands on this list...The Talent is there, they need leadership & Direction from above.

    Gysberts off... on this huge ground you take off a midfield runner and replace him with a forward when we've kicked 32 points in 3 quarters of football. WHAT THE F?!

    There is no excuse for being so lazy, so careless, so utterly limp.

    They have to make changes for the sake of showing these players that you have to earn games by trying. I don't care if they stuff up their kicks or decision making, but MAKE A GODDAMN EFFORT!

    Ugh, this week needs to end already.

    Well I told myself I wasn't gonna winge here after the first quarter

    But I can't stop myself, west coast have been poor we should be losing by atleast 10 goals.

    If we don't win this quarter I'm gonna Hand my membership in to the club, this is the worst performance in 2 years

    And it's not acceptable!

    I'm actually ashamed to be a Melbourne surppoter. So soft I counted 5 players that stutter stepped and lifted there heads.

    Trust Watts to start coming to the fore in a flogging. Also, no wonder we don't get Friday night/round opening games often. I probably enjoyed the second half against the hawks more. Eagles are just toying with us, all the BS fancy crap is working for them and we can barely keep our feet.

    Good luck on 40K dees.

    I really hope we don't paper over any cracks in the last quarter and win by 3/4 goals. We need to be under the spotlight of the entire football community, not just fed up Demon supporters.

    Trengove good again, Watts showed something under pressure. Jones and Jamar having a crack.

    Wow thats pretty bold to then advertise for members at 3/4 time following the crap that has been dished up

    Message to Tom Scully, do yourself a favour and sign a 5 year deal with GWS, at least the will be a decent side in four years, where Melbourne have shown nothing in the last 4.

    And that gold coast game looked good only because of the last quarter. Face the facts melbourne have shown nothing in the last 4 years in development and will not win a flag during the supposed window of 2013-2016.

    [censored] JOKE SIDE.

    Next years member tally, - 3 for this household. We have been members since I was 12 (18 years).

    Anyone wanna debate Moloney would have been a better choice as Captain anymore?

    We are a bunch of wussy boys, and our well-presented, media savvy, friendly Captain is partly to blame.

    Sure Beamer may get on the [censored], not be as well spoken as Greeny, but who is the better onfield leader? No contest at this stage.

    There is no unity in this team at all, we have tried to manufacture it by picking blokes who know each other etc, but that only goes so far.

    It is up to the captain and the coach to unite the team, inspire them, teach them, and lead them, but both are currently failing to do so.

    who else notices that Watts often goes u[p alone... no other bastard provides coverage or blocking !! poor Melbourne..very poor. actually...[censored] WEAK !!!

  • Quote

    Listening to the game on the radio and 4 goals in three QTRs is definately not good enough the excuse that its a young list is getting really boring and I have had enough. like ive said before its time for this club to step up otherwise its gonna be the same old demons everyone is used to :( and im really dissapointed they had better do something quickly I dont care... turn it around MFC this is crap!!!

    Something HAS to change. Whether it's fair or not, this is the absolute end for Bailey. I'm hating the thought of showing my face at work tomorrow. Players must take plenty of blame for such a pathetic, insipid "effort" ("effort" is too flattering a word for what we've seen for 3 quarters).

  • Quote

    Bailey loves the word competitive...it's a pity were not even a bit....Roos or Malthouse anyone? What a difference Hird has has made to Ess.

    Did anyone noticed how ineffective Morton's tackle on Kerr was...gee we look soft, disorganised and badly prepared...

    I wish I supoprted someone else...........sick of feeling like crap

    Dont know what to say......feel gutted.

    Feel sorry for my 10 year old son,"I thought we were gonna be better this year dad"

    Im sick of defending us.

    I dont want him to suffer like i have the last 40 years.

    We need to make a statement, no more talk.

    No more "potential".

    Sack Bailey and all his assistants, keep Viney, get an actual backline coach,not a loser bulldogs midfielder.

    Im done..........sigh....

    • REPORT: Port Adelaide

      Of course, it’s not the backline, you might argue and you would probably be right. It’s the boot studder (do they still have them?), the midfield, the recruiting staff, the forward line, the kicking coach, the Board, the interchange bench, the supporters, the folk at Casey, the head coach and the club psychologist  It’s all of them and all of us for having expectations that were sufficiently high to have believed three weeks ago that a restoration of the Melbourne team to a position where we might still be in contention for a finals berth when the time for the midseason bye arrived. Now let’s look at what happened over the period of time since Melbourne overwhelmed the Sydney Swans at the MCG in late May when it kicked 8.2 to 5.3 in the final quarter (and that was after scoring 3.8 to two straight goals in the second term).

    • CASEY: Essendon

      Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

    • PREGAME: Gold Coast

      The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

    • POSTGAME: Port Adelaide

      The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
