And Quite Possibly we were still not Heavily rated...This year opposition Coaches have done their homework on us...very deeply.

Another reason why MM would be the one for us next year and going forward..

We do have talent, it is just right now the belief has been sucked out of the team...that can be quickly replaced.

    Didn't they kick 9.22 that day or something...

    I mean, we played against them last year in two games but we have got to get over decent displays against Collingwood.

    We were shite last year and we still are.

    From press reports it's clear that the club has suffered terribly from off-field bickering and divisions this year. No team can be immune from the debilitating effect of such factors. Until the off-field stuff is stabilised, the team will not be able to get it's act together.

    Yes, we have awful senior players.

    I know.

    When they are down on form they are as inspiring as a briquette...

    Maybe,but that's pretty soft isnt it? That seems to imply that because things haven't gone as the football dept would have liked its acceptable for them to call the season over.

    what has happened is what always happens at Melbourne, we believe our own hype and everybody turns up expecting the others to do the work for them. The players that you expect to take a step forward go backwards, the club is administered like a school fete, people stop showing up, the media gets stuck in and everybody gets injured. 100% Melbourne.

    I wouldn't call it soft, just reality. History shows that whenever clubs are divided off the field, they perform poorly on it. Supporters might not like to hear it, but it's fact.

    I resent that briquette vilifying statement. Some of my best friends are briquettes.

    Anyway what did a briquette ever do to you....cheap shot!

    • 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.

      The Demons come face to face with St. Kilda for the second time this season for their return clash at Marvel Stadium on Sunday. Who comes in and who goes out?
