BRUISE FREE FOOTBALL!!!!!!!!!

Softest team in the history of the AFL!

  • Quote

    It's strangely comforting reading this thread. At least when you do you realize how many people out there feel your disappointment.

    Can I make a prediction though?

    An absolute roasting in the media, followed by a much improved performance – probably a narrow loss, maybe even a win – next week against the Blues. Seriously. For a couple of years now the only thing that fires our playing group up is bottoming out and then getting lashed by the media.

    PS Bailey has to go.

    Neil Craig did the right thing after the Crows got spanked by the Saints by 100+ will Dean do the right thing too...

    The softness is unimaginable.

    If the club wants 15k members next year, they better announce a change of coach and football department on Monday. Not that i think that can even save this club, but it will at least give hope to some supporters.

    The administration sold the rebuild to us, and it was the last roll for a lot of long suffering supporters. It has failed. I fear for this club. The culture of failure beat everyone.

    What, we should start a new rebuild then?

    I'm disappointed, disgusted and repulsed myself. But in two years time this will be nothing more than a blip on the radar. I don't think the rebuild has failed- it's barely started.

    maybe but if not hopefully the club will do the right thing on his behalf

    Embarrassing.

    I don't care that it's Geelong in Geelong, to concede 20 goals in one half of football is pathetic. No team should ever concede that many goals.

    Our youth/inexperience/whatever is no excuse for a performance this inept.

    What's the bet we come under immense scrutiny this week, and then put in a half-decent performance against Carlton, thereby removing from people's minds how bad we are right now?

    I'm more concerned with having Josh Mahoney in charge of our forwards.

    Is that 41 inside 50s for 32 scoring shots?

    All i will say about today's performance so far, is that it goes way deeper than just the Coach.

    If you want Bailey gone, then Brad Green has to also cease as Captain after today.

    NEW START...

    Absolutely agree we need assistants that know what they are dong.

    MFC is a joke right now. Would love to see JMac in a assistant coaching role next year. Could we entice G Lyon?

    Josh Mahoney...never heard of him. Must speak volumes of his capacity.

    I'd only keep Scotty West from the whole coaching staff.

    Stop talking of Garry Lyon, he has been out of the game since 1998...it won't happen.

    For months now i have been saying that our players are no where as good as we think.

    For months I have been told I do not know what i am talking about.

    "We have a talented group" "who only need time"

    I am constantly told.

    Well guys what is the line tonight?

    We have A football department that after four years has us producing what may be the worst performance

    In the clubs history.

    The has beens we threw out did not play this badly

    at least they gave their best.

    Unfortunately we have to start again.

    I am too old for this but what is the alternative!

    Sorry DB but after 4 years you have taken us backwards.

    Do the honourable thing and resign tonight.

    And CC it is time for the same mate.

    Third biggest lead at three quarter time in the history of the game.....says it all really.

    No woman in my life has left me more broken-hearted over and over and over like the Melbourne Football Club.

    Well said. Sad thing is i dont think the club will survive another rebuild.

    Id be happy to see all the over 23s go at the end of the year. They have contributed to the rotting of this club as much as the coaches.

    After reading todays Hun and hearing the players state they want Bailey as coach, Is that really the way to show it. Very hard to keep positive.

    • 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?
