are you at the game?

i'm disappointed, but not surprised.

bailey took us backwards over 4 years, and neeld is starting from the bottom again.

it ain't gonna be beer and skittles in 2012!

 

Dee's down by 32 and to think my prediction of two wins at the half way mark of the year were scoffed at.
 

Yep, thats just confidence. When confidant & centered, the skills flow. When stressed out, the rhythm & timing vanishes in all athletic sports. Even Boxing, timing goes.

I hope you are right mate. But we shouldnt be stressed out in a practice game vs Port dont you think?

What players are we missing tonight that would likely be playing round 1 guys?

Not many to come back in.

Howe is back on the field so he must be ok from his previous injury.

I'm beginning to think my guess at 4 wins was super optimistic

Judging from our past performances at AAMI, this is a better result than normal. Usually we're down by around 60 points by this stage.
 

Missing... Watts, Gysberts, Morton, Grimes, Sellar?, Tapscott, Bail?,

Magner

God Howe was an absolute steal, always has a crack and

looks stoked to be playing AFL and wants to make every opportunity he has count.

Sometimes I wish our higher draft picks would have the same attitude.

I still won't be worried about the Dees this season until 5 games into the real season and we see where we are at.

I have never minded losing, unfortunately as a Demons supporter you are used to it but what i do mind is the WAY we lose, we never go down fighting.

People looking for excuses already with listing players not out there tonight. How many make up our best 22?

Not a lot in that...

Could not possibly agree more.

This is depressing

Dunn will spend round 1 in the 2's. Martin, Green, Barty and McKenzie haven't done much. Missing Watts - Clark being double teamed and Dunn being killed


Port 13.7 85 MFC 6.8 44

Good to see we have answered last weeks disappointing loss with an encouraging and spirited...

Dee's down by 32 and to think my prediction of two wins at the half way mark of the year were scoffed at.

Still not acceptable though..

What other club & Supporters would keep putting up with this except us??

We are being out muscled by Port Adelaide FFS and people say we have improved in 4 years!!

HaHaHa

 

I know you're trying to be funny, but why waste your time ?

I wanted to get in before the wrist slashers and Membership card burners.

Possible inclusions

Bail

Grimes

Gysberts

Jurrah

Mcdonald

Magner

Sellar

Tapscott

Strauss

Watts

+Couch

Really enjoyed the Couch/Magner combo on the win against Collingwood.

  • 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.

  • POSTGAME: Carlton

    A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
