Ok, I understand how frustrating this is. Melbourne has been a below average team for years now with the last few seasons being full of unfulfilled promises. Today was a big disappointment, but to show to everyone what a strong footy club we are, we need to pick ourselves up and continue to support our team. Because that's what supporters are for.

we'll all do that regardless, please don't think we won't.

This place is a place of venting with like minded passionate supporters.

A grain of salt is required.

Richmond and WC bottomed out when we did and WC are touted as top 4 contenders.

Richmond are challenging top sides.

North didn't even bottom out and they are going goal for goal with the best side in the comp atm.

We bottomed out better than most and can't even beat the worst side in the league.

And after bottoming out, we look to of even gone backwards.


Snap reaction, perhaps, but what do you expect supporters to say?

Has there been a side in the competition so ordinary, for so long? And I mean ordinary.

I think we will all support our team, however we are all over these performances. We are only human, how long can we put up with sub par and frustrating performances. The Melbourne Footy Club and I are in a very bad and hurtful relationship, I love them but they keep letting me down and I always go back to them! LOL

No mate, listening to Carey describe our effort as insipid and putrid gives all members the right to show how strong we are and give this Club what it deserves.... a massive boot fair up the @rse

Demon jack I agree we as supporters need to support through thick and thin.

But today was nothing short of disgraceful.mi can accept losing but not in the manner they lost today. Did not fire a shot after half time.

The team was an embarrassment, a joke.

If the players don't care, how can we as supporters?

Give me a f#*king break!

Accepting the [censored] that was dished up today by our club is exactly what's wrong. It's not enough to be happy to go to the footy and see a team play - just ask South Melbourne and Fitzroy supporters.

We can and should demand more from the team. They are terrible, and asking them to be better has now become the responsibility of the supporters because we have a long term view of both the club and the league. If we want to be around we need to be competitive.

Today was a disgrace from a sponsorship and membership perspective and that's what allows us to exist.

Don't be afraid to demand more.

Whilst it's true that Richmond and WC bottomed out - we bottomed out post Daniher, "re-built" under Bailey, and have gone back to the drawing board under Neeld. Enough is enough. Today was an embarrassment and the sooner performances like that one stop being tolerated or explained away the better.

I can cop losing, but I can't put up with insipid, gutless dogs representing the club I love and would bleed every drop of blood to play one game.

I'm sick of going to a game and watching them not give a [censored].

Great call

Don't start me on Wines, him and Viney represent everything our side doesn't.

Meanwhile Toumpas was seen standing 10m away from contests with hands on his knees.

Ffs i know its his first game but if he isnt ready then dont play him.

No...

Your sentiment is nice, but our hostility is healthy..... frightening, but healthy.... don't stop the anger, let the players adjust to it & feel it & let them learn to cope with the fire.

We as supporters have been to meek for a combatant contact sport.... we can be 'meek' away from the game doing other things. other clubs supporters fireup when they go bad & so can we..

.... Wats needed si for the players to collectively stand up & have a go.

who cares about a few mistakes when we're getting smashed, as long as they are showing PLENTY of Heart.

.................. thats the starting point we have to see..... Heart & Ticker

Get off your damm high horse. All of us who support this club bleed red and blue, don't tell anyone to calm down after such rot served up. We are bloody hurting after this.

[censored] off

Please lets not calm down. Heads need to roll after losing to an interstate side at the g by 80 points that last year noone wanted to coach and everyone thought were the ultimate basket case on field and off field. When Port lost to GWS and primus lost his job I laughed and said o well at least we'll never hit as rock bottom as port. We lost to them by 80 points today ffs. God this club makes me angry

    CROSSROADS by The Oracle

    Melbourne stands at the crossroads.  Sunday’s game against the West Coast Eagles who have not met the Demons at the MCG in more than ten years, is a make or break for the club’s finals aspirations.  That proposition is self-evident since every other team the club will be opposed to over the next eight weeks of footy is a prospective 2024 finalist. To add to this perspective is the fact that while the Demons are now in twelfth position on the AFL table, they are only a game and a half b

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well

    The Demons once again went goalless in the last quarter and were run down by the Lions at the Gabba in the final minutes of the match ultimately losing the game by 5 points as their percentage dips below 100 for the first time since 2020.

    It's Game Day and the Dees are deep in the heart of enemy territory as they take on the Lions in Brisbane under the Friday Night Lights at the Gabba. Will the Demon finally be awakened and the season get back on track or will they meekly be sacrificed like lambs to the slaughter?

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi
