What odds for a winless season?

Think that's probably a bit melodramatic...

I think its bordering on optimistic

How can other teams pick players like Buddy Franklin at picks like #5 and we are picking Cale Morton at #4, and a stupid [censored] that chases money at #1?

Hawthorn also took Thorpe a year or two later at around pick 5. Richmond also took Tambling over Franklin.

I'm looking forward to the draft and trade period already - hopefully, the highlight of the year.

Don't forget that we are the worst drafting team of the comp

If Neeld comes out today and says there was positives, I will begin to doubt him.

if neeld gives another positive press conference after this ill be filthy

"well we played well for 2 quarters..."

NO MARK, WE DIDNT

I think the fake grass comes with the fake team

Hey... lay off the Fake Grass.....it's the hardest thing about us today......I reckon it gets B&F votes behind Howe

Melbourne out to $5.25.

I'm not a betting man but I've just put a pineapple on us for the win. Those odds are ridiculous, surely.

Sorry, P_Man but I just had to.

Today's game was going to show me how far backwards we've gone.

Halfway through the last,it's Tiges by 10 goals as Miller slots a goal and is beating Rivers FFS!

No-one mans up and couldn't be bothered chasing.

The bottom line is,it's our midfield,we just don't have any quality mids,that's where we get smashed every week.

But you realise why the press conference was positive, right?

You don't walk into the MFC and be so negative. The establishment won't stand for it.

Neeld can't come out and do a Blighty on the players. The club won't stand for it.

Part of the reason why standards are so low and fans are so fickle. Very little accountability. We'll never win a flag. It's just the club in general.

We just need to figure out who's responsible for our cold third quarters. There's something rotten happening in the half-time break to make us come out looking disinterested and slow. What is it?

An Aussie met a fairy who offered to grant him one wish.

"I want to live forever," he said.

"Sorry," said the fairy, "but I am not allowed to grant that type of wish."

"OK,” he said, "Then I want to die when the Melbourne Demons win the AFL premiership."

"You crafty bastard!" said the fairy.

It is sad how funny I found that.

Mick Malthouse: "Hopefully they will stick with [Mark Neeld." Apparently Neeld was talking to Mick last night about the club and he said that there are so many areas where we are well behind. Man, we've got a long way to go.

Can I ask a question? Who is our best player? And how does he compare to the best players of other teams?

yeah coaching and game plan are one of those areas.

Players with heart is another

changes for next week. Take the GPS data of the players who played in the midfield, see how far they ran during the game, drop those who ran the least distance. I'd exclude Howe from this treatment, but something tells me he'd be at the top of the list, not the bottom...

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players.
