Thats why mckenzie should not play afl. Absolutely shat his dacks then abd turnover cost us a goal.

 

I'm all for playing on. When it makes sense. Not when you're panicked.

Our players mostly struggle to make good decisions. Even senior players. It's not good enough.

You are 100% correct.

That is a decision to be made by the players, and has nothing to do with the coach. If anything it is evidence the coach is supporting and encouraging his players.
 

It's like Watts has a rule that for every good thing he does he'll do 2 more bad things

Quite frankly no one could coach this mob ,, bloodless hopeless skills by our bums !!

Sorry I forgot I can't blame the coach for our inability to make basic decisions with and without the footy. Apparently he is absolved from all blame that we are heading towards 100-3 loss.

This is now as ugly as I expected.


Our competitive efforts and attack on the man and ball are as good today as anytime this year, and are acceptable.

We are losing because our skills under pressure are terrible.

Thank God -Hawthorn is starting to thump us. New coach coming real soon. Great! We might even win a match. Perhaps he could tell wattsie to get the ball wherever it is!

Spot on. We have had chances but spew it up by foot.

This is the team that Bailey , Neeld and the mighty Barry P built, christ we where meant to pushin for the upper part of the top 8 by 2013, this clubs a joke, nothing can fix this losing culture, this clubs time is nearly up.


My god we need a goal

How can we have so many players devoid of basic skill set at AFL level...

Our effort was good for the first quarter. We've totally shat ourselves now as usual and Neeld has loaded the backline already.

Epic smashing coming up. Brace yourself.

3 points and its almost half time. Whats lowest hald time score ever

You can blame the coach for a lot of things but this isn't one of them.

Your football knowledge is better than stooping to this sort of irrationality. Pick on the coach for things the coach controls.

Watts as the loose man is a joke. Give him a chance up forward FFS.

 

Presser should be good

Wait so decision making is not the coach's domain?

  • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

    It seems like only yesterday that these two sides faced off against each other in the centre of the continent. It was when Melbourne was experiencing a rare period of success with five wins from its previous six matches including victories over both of last year’s grand finalists.  Well, it wasn’t yesterday but it was early last month and it remains etched clearly in the memory. The Saints were going through a slump and the predicted outcome of their encounter at TIO Traeger Park was a virtual no-brainer. A Melbourne victory and another step closer to a possible rise into finals contention. Something that was unthinkable after opening the season with five straight defeats.

  • 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.
