Just want to know where the pride is. They gave up in the last.

Playing for your season. playing for Seam Wright. playing for your place in the team.

Everything to play for and we get this performance.

Part and parcel of being a Melbourne supporter :(

    We're all in this together.

    We love this club but we can dislike the way things are going this season.

    Gees it's frustrating stuff being a Demon fan. Those old timers had it made the 1950s/60s must have been like a dream.

    I just want to see one Premiership before I die? Is it that much to ask for they've got about 50 years to do it in but...

    We're feeling the hurt the same way the Tiogs fans were last week.

    Worst loss for the year, doggies wern't exactly swimming in confidence and we had close to our best team out there. The game plan at Etihad seems to be "handball, handball, handball", we did this v kangas and we did it v saints, it isn't bloody working!!!!

    As bad as we were the game was over earlier than it should've been, I counted MINIMUM 4 goals directly gifted to the doggies, one of the worst dispays I've seen this year. We would've lost anyway the way we played, but goals change the complexion of the game, an 18 point deficit looks a hell of a lot easier to claw back than a 5 goal deficit.

    I try to limit the amount of times I leave a game early, this time I could not stand any more of it. I've always said finals wasn't my end goal this year, looks like I don't have to worry about it.

    Why did we even turn up today? We clearly had no desire to win even though we had everything to play for.

    And please Bailey learn to coach against a team who pressures the ball carrier, because any idiot can win against soft teams.

    Absolutely unacceptable rubbish today. Shameful.

    We played like a bunch of chumps tonight and it showed.

    My only consolation is that we're such a yo-yo team this year that we'll probably spank Port by 10 goals.

    The Dogs had bigger bodies and played disciplined footy.

    Picken didn't let Scully breathe.

    Boyd was as strong as Moloney and stopped his clearance work

    Hudson was just as strong as Jamar and too strong for Martin

    Hill and Ward scared the crap out of Gysberts by going hard.

    Nuff said

    No disrespect intended desertfox, just for the record, the 50s and 60s were not a dream. History shows that the team varied considerably during our most successful decade - players even went home to the farm for a year! The constant was a brilliant coach with a disciplined, structured approach - that's what we need now, and the present coach is not the answer! It is well past the time to move on!

    Can't argue with you there, you make a lot of sense.

    The 3 word player analysis ought to be a doozey...

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.

    • CASEY: Sandringham

      The Casey Demons rebounded from a sluggish start to manufacture a decisive win against Sandringham in the final showdown, culminating a quarter century of intense rivalry between the fluctuating alignments of teams affiliated with AFL clubs Melbourne and St Kilda, as the Saints and the Zebras prepare to forge independent paths in 2026. After conceding three of the first four goals of the match, the Demons went on a goal kicking rampage instigated by the winning ruck combination of Tom Campbell with 26 hitouts, 26 disposals and 13 clearances and his apprentice Will Verrall who contributed 20 hitouts. This gave first use of the ball to the likes of Jack Billings, Bayley Laurie, Riley Bonner and Koltyn Tholstrup who was impressive early. By the first break they had added seven goals and took a strong grip on the game. The Demons were well served up forward early by Mitch Hardie and, as the game progressed, Harry Sharp proved a menace with a five goal performance. Emerging young forwards Matthew Jefferson and Luker Kentfield kicked two each but the former let himself down with some poor kicking for goal.
      Young draft talent Will Duursma showed the depth of his talent and looks well out of reach for Melbourne this year. Kalani White was used sparingly and had a brief but uneventful stint in the ruck.

      The Demons return to the scene of the crime on Saturday to face the wooden spooners the Eagles at the Docklands. Who comes in and who goes out? Like moving deck chairs on the Titanic.

      It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?
