GAME DAY

Featured Replies

So, if GWS has an agreement but no contract, what happens if they change their mind???

We can throw in our first round draft pic if they take him.

$1m per year you've got to be joking, $600k per year you've got to be joking, $250k per year I can live with.

Contract withdrawn after a medical check on the knee, what do you reckon or is Sheedy still that stupid?

Give me a couple of draft pick a recruiter that can use them wisely and see you later.

Couple of midfielders out there today would help.

Let's hope they don't if scull is worth a million then Shane Tuck is a football God

3/4 analysis; howe is a ripper, watts leadership group, davey a bit out of it but still leading with aggression, 2nd qtr fade out was ugly, should only be a few down too many lame shots, umpiring generally horrendous albeit a demon-friendly 5min patch in the 3rd, i like viney taking green out of the fwd line, jones having a go, bate should NEVER attempt brazilian footy. the 4th has started and were 67 pts down. carn dees!

Definitely this.

Pathetic club, ashamed to support such a bunch of talentless hacks. I like watts feel sorry for him playing with such a dud team

As I stated earlier, I support this club regardless, but I no longer support this particular playing group.

There are obviously exceptions, such as Watts, Tapscott, McKenzie, Trengove etc, but it is honestly laughable that our 'leaders' are consistently shown the way by 20 year olds when the going gets tough.

All we need to fix this bunch is about Half a dozen Watts, Half a dozen Trengoves for starters.

Id take about 3-4 McKenzies and a couple of Martins... A Howe or two , Some Gys and some Chips. Some Tapps, maybe a Mac and a Garland. A little know-Howe...anything else is a bit of a raffle isnt it.

God..its painful

My Family left the game at half time

Sick of it


my god, Scully 14 handpasses, 4 kicks. Please take him Sheedy.

Will never be a 1/4 of the player Judd is, strong drafting of a Luke Power clone with the first pick.

Luke Power is probably being a bit generous going of today's performance

IF Greens just going to spectate out there can he have the decency of sitting in teh stands !!! FFS :mad:

I notice all those who howled down anyone suggesting Joel Mac might be better value in defence compared Rivers are mighty quiet at the moment. Joel looks to do something.. play on ..create play.. jared stops everything allowing the opposition to man up...bloody marvellous NOT !!!


How does Scotland always manage to pick up a hep of possessions against us? How old is he 35?

There are some hard decisions to be made at Melbourne at the end of the year and I would suggest that Scully should be encouraged to accept the offer from GWS and that Jones must go. I only watched the live updates on AFL live but he number of times Jones turned the ball over after taking a mark was incredible.

We have made some horrendous choices in the recruiting department and whilst we've all bee applauding and congratulating Prendergast other cubs have been recruiting much better players with much lower picks. We have blown it and in the process gained the horrible reputation of Tankers.

We have our number one draft pick from last year playing in the Casey reserves this week.

Spoken like a true fair weather supporter. Don't like it don't PRETEND to be a supporter.

I hope GL or TV has a sitdown with Jones and show him how many turnovers he makes. Not just this game but many times he kicks for goal without lowering his eyes or he misses gimme short passes on his right foot without pressure.

Having just back got back to media and internet after a week in outback bali, I am depressed that not only idiots are screaming but reasoned posters cant grasp that young sides cant last 22 weeks. HTFU.

Jones and Moloney are just dim.

I am only just grasping that i should be grateful PPL have those little signoffs under their posts. They certainly clear up any doubts.

And just who is that Robbie?

The only kick I saw from him went straight to a free Carlton player.

Lucas Cook

Sorry, you are quite right. I was thinking of the number one draft pick overall. Will Cook get a game this year?

No. Hopefully he will get back in to Casey firsts.

The million dollar a year offer is plainly ludicrous....I don't think we should keep him at any price, he's just not a very good footballer, and I seriously don't think he ever will be. That said, if we get 2 first round draft picks for him, it's a major win. I have no idea why GWS would want him at all.

In general though, I have NEVER, in 40 years, seen a Melbourne team lower in confidence, and with absolutely no idea how to be constructively competitive. I will continue to support them through thick and thin, but it is truly the saddest I have ever felt as a Melbourne supporter. So much promise over the last 2 years, and whilst the light at the end of the tunnel will hopefully arrive, it's impossible currently to imagine from where.

And for those with ideas about the next 4 games, it's just too hard to see us winning any of them, and yes, that includes GC. We are, sadly, in the biggest hole imaginable. It's truly horrible, and I feel sorry for all those involved, and that does include the players, Schwab, Connolly, but particularly Jimmy Stynes.

Woeful times indeed.

  • GAMEDAY: St. Kilda

    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?

  • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

    It seems like only yesterday that these two sides faced off against each other in the centre of the continent. It was when Melbourne was experiencing a rare period of success with five wins from its previous six matches including victories over both of last year’s grand finalists.  Well, it wasn’t yesterday but it was early last month and it remains etched clearly in the memory. The Saints were going through a slump and the predicted outcome of their encounter at TIO Traeger Park was a virtual no-brainer. A Melbourne victory and another step closer to a possible rise into finals contention. Something that was unthinkable after opening the season with five straight defeats.

  • 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.
