Who else here thinks..

Relax, we've got this...

We need to make this the Demonland slogan. Seriously.

 

65 points at 3/4 time which is when I leave

That vibe is just a psychological defence mechanism, sorry to break it to you. I feel illogically optimistic most weeks; I've learned to ignore it.

We are going to get reamed.

100% agree , balls deep
 

I think we will have a crack but will get over run in the end and go down by 35 pts. neeld will go on to coach next week.

Look i couldn't care less what the result is as long as at least half the players look like they want/deserve to be out there, the effort last week was a disgrace

If you are referring to the first quarter, then i agree.

who else here thinks that Melbourne will come out fired up against the Tigers and maybe [censored] a win.

I think that the players may come out with a burning red hot desire to crunch every single Richmond player at every opportunity. I just have this inkling feeling.

Or we will lose by 100..

But im getting a good vibe, im telling ya..

Go Dees! i will be there on sunday cheering as loud as i ever have

It's funny you say that, I've been getting stuck in to a couple Richmond supporters at work today saying they're gonna get done - you can imagine the offices response though.

I'm sticking to my guns, you're going down tiges...

the MFC would want to be packing lube, and lots of it.

Going to be mercyless


I can't begin to imagine the analogies when we play Hawthorn. Some serious latent sexual repression here

We will get smashed......but there will be some positives for the press conference.

We will have improved our "left handed handpass efficiency from uncontested possessions" or some such bulltish

I look back so fondly on the days we could go to the footy and watch the toiges supporters melt down and eat their own.......sadly passed

Poor form

Yeah right, Stay to the end blah blah blah.....

If the players don't give a stuff why should we??

I thought they would be fired up for round 1, then round 2.

I have stopped expecting the unexpected.

Last week we had "attempted tackles". Maybe this week we will examine our "attempted running".

"We tried to run 287 times, but it only worked 164 times. You can't win games with that kind of differential."


Here are the options:

  • We come out and play football the likes of which we haven't seen us play in years. Just as we did against Essendon last year, we pull a blinder out of nowhere, it stuns Richmond, and we record a famous win.
  • We come out and we play decent effort football, but, similarly to the Carlton game two weeks ago, we just aren't good enough. Tigers win by 30-50 points simply because they're better than us, but positives do come out of the game
  • We come out and we play absolute rubbish. Similarly to last week, we're flat, lazy, disinterested, insipid, and embarrassing. Richmond by 60 at half time and 100 by the end.

Take your pick of which one.

No hope. However the pathetic efforts this season certainly present the team with plenty of "improvement opportunities" (to use corporate speak).

Lock in c thanks Ed.

Because it's our club mate. The players might be lucky to be there for 5 years, while we are supporting it for our whole lives. Without us the club would die.

If that's your attitude, I'd rather you don't attend at all.

I would suggest that if any movie scene could be compared to Sunday's game, it would be this one.

Ironically enough, these blokes are pretty representative of the Richmond Grog Squad.

Well said, it's our club.

Wonder how many of the players actually barrack for the Dees....

  • 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.
