Sick of this defensive [censored]!

atleast under Bailey we tried to take games on and play with flair.

sick of watching this [censored] for the last 8 years.

 

stevie mothereffing J gets a nothing free to put us 50 points down

i have counted NINE absurd decisions that have gone against us

not one player has done a single thing that is special

Roos looking like a pretender at this point

I am not watching this club again until they win a game
 

A goal!!! Oh my giddy aunt.

Look at the bright side, we are not the most woeful thing out there. Umpires are miles in front.


Will someone finally believe me now when I say what I've been saying for seven years now?

IT'S THE PLAYERS, NOT THE COACH!!!!!

Leave Howe up forward imo
 

Tapscott slung with a dead ball. Umps got no problem with that. Stevie Jay hit a microsecond late by a player contesting a mark. "Fifty metres!!!"

Absurd.


I wanna see what us get in their smug faces show it's not men against boys

Roos came on board talking about improving us but really have we improved at all. We finished last year with a percentage in the 50's and only the fact that we have really only played the bottom teams is the reason our percentage is in the 70's now. Now we are playing the good teams we are getting shown that we haven't improved at all. All we have seemingly learned is how not to score. Roos seems to think that having the players continually looking back and moving backwards is the way forward but the game has changed. We still contine to be irrelevant and should finish bottom.

For those of us who point to players like pederso , Dunn and jettta as improvers under roos I would argue that the fact they realised their football careers were almost over is the reason for their improvement.

Watts tries to tackle Stevie J by... pulling on his head.

Oh. My. God.

After sneaking out of a marking contest.

Crash the contest, put some pressure, make them work for it... heaven forbid he gets dirt on his jumper

Look, we're shithouse. But these umpires are absolutely woeful, YET AGAIN. Geelong have NOTHING paid against them, yet the equivalent is ALWAYS paid against us. Varcoe clearly just ran over the goal line completely unpressured, and it's not deliberate? This right after two high tackles that were also conveniently ignored, right in front of goal.


Steve Johnson goes to mock choke Chris Dawes after the week we've had. UMP: "Stevie...Stevie...just watch that okay?"

Pathetic.

Roos ought to be learning a lot about this rabble today. Stuff we've known for ages.


Haha and how much is Frawly asking again?

Don't let the door hit you on the way out chip.

Thanks for the compo.

Can we get our compo pick already?

Shidhouse from Chip, once again. Just drop him Roosy, we're playing a man down.

 

Cats really aren't Much chop this says far more about us and the horrible umpiring doesn't help

To be a fly on the wall in the change rooms at half time. Roos will be absolutely LIVID at this performance.

  • PREVIEW: West Coast

    It was bad enough that the Melbourne Football Club created yet another humiliating scenario inside its wretched season at Marvel Stadium last Sunday, but the final insult is that it has been commanded to return to the scene of the crime to inflict further punishment on its fans this week. Incidentally, if this match preview, of a game that promises to be one of the most unattractive fixtures in the history of the game, happens to cut out of your computer screen three quarters of the way through, it’s no coincidence. I’ll be mirroring the Demons’ lacklustre effort against St Kilda from last Sunday when they conceded the largest last quarter turnaround for victory in the history of the game.

  • REPORT: St. Kilda

    When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.

  • CASEY: Sandringham

    The Casey Demons rebounded from a sluggish start to manufacture a decisive win against Sandringham in the final showdown, culminating a quarter century of intense rivalry between the fluctuating alignments of teams affiliated with AFL clubs Melbourne and St Kilda, as the Saints and the Zebras prepare to forge independent paths in 2026. After conceding three of the first four goals of the match, the Demons went on a goal kicking rampage instigated by the winning ruck combination of Tom Campbell with 26 hitouts, 26 disposals and 13 clearances and his apprentice Will Verrall who contributed 20 hitouts. This gave first use of the ball to the likes of Jack Billings, Bayley Laurie, Riley Bonner and Koltyn Tholstrup who was impressive early. By the first break they had added seven goals and took a strong grip on the game. The Demons were well served up forward early by Mitch Hardie and, as the game progressed, Harry Sharp proved a menace with a five goal performance. Emerging young forwards Matthew Jefferson and Luker Kentfield kicked two each but the former let himself down with some poor kicking for goal.
    Young draft talent Will Duursma showed the depth of his talent and looks well out of reach for Melbourne this year. Kalani White was used sparingly and had a brief but uneventful stint in the ruck.

  • PREGAME: West Coast

    The Demons return to the scene of the crime on Saturday to face the wooden spooners the Eagles at the Docklands. Who comes in and who goes out? Like moving deck chairs on the Titanic.
