Geez we are bad and Watts is as bad as any player on the field at the moment, Ben Hur said he was soft, well I reckon that's being kind, totally unable to withstand any pressure.

Neeld is a joke, 8 straight losses to start next year, will be sitting there al sanctimonious like Ratts, all over for this guy.

Worst coach in the history of the game.

Anyone can tell me the exact ruling for deliberate rush behind?

All depends on crowd reaction.

Off to watch the other teams. 2012 has been nothing short of disgraceful football by this club. Overpaid underwhelming incompetent football list.

Shell of an AFL team, and the club is gone if this continues.

Let's see if 2013 keeps us interested.

Oh well - about to watch my last quarter of footy for 2012. I really don't care about the other clubs so I don't care what happens to them from here. I just hope the people who have the power, do the right thing when it comes to recruitment time. I have never seen the Dees win a premiership in my life time. My husband, both my kids, my parents and my closest friends have all experienced what I have been denied. But I am an optimist and will be back there supporting my beloved Dees in 2013. I never tip against them, think each week we are in with a chance and hope that 2013 will be our year.

19 minutes of this miserable year to go. Watched in the hope of something to hang on to over the long off season, guess it'll have to come from the draft.

Epic Fail Melbourne. The statement that we wanted to play the year out has proved to be more hollow words. These guys wearing the Red & Blue have one hell of a task ahead of them winning the respect of their own suporters, let alone the football world. Is there even any anger in ONE of them about their performanaces this year. I don't see it!

Sounds like we're ending the season like we started it: embarrassingly uncompetitive.

I haven't seen a single second, and I propose to keep it that way, but I hope our so-called 'depth players' put in shockers to seal their fates. We don't have 'depth players', we have a bevy of has-been or will-not-be list-cloggers.

Tappy hip and shoulder will do actually.

No one will mention the unevenness of the umpiring in this game because it involves Melbourne, but it has been nothing short of disgraceful. Case in point that free kick against Tapscott.

I don't want anger, I just want it fixed. Diesel were you really expecting this to be a statement match? Lol. We've barely raised a yelp all year and suddenly we're going to pull something from our arse at Subi against a top 8 side? Ok. I expected an insipid effort and haven't been disappointed.

Good work Fitzy. Excited by this lad.

Deserved the call up and now he has kicked 2. Something for him to hold onto as he goes into preseason!

He's quick, but I can't see much else to get excited about.

He and Tom McDonald have come from the Cameron Bruce school of kicking and it will severely impact the likelihood of them playing AFL football within a year or two.

Rule 15.6.1© - A Free Kick shall be awarded against a Player who intentionally kicks, handballs or forces the football over the boundary line without the football being touched by another player.

So it all comes down to what the umpire determines to be 'intentional'.

that seems the problem - not even a whimper. All season other than one game against the saints, one game against Essendon and a few easy beats.

    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. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
