I am going to buy a ticket in Thursdays lotto hopefully if I win I can buy a new Melbourne fc

I wouldn't waste my winnings on this pathetic, lazy, heartless mob..get rid of over rated players like Dawes and Frawley would be a good start..Money wasted..Dawes couldn't mark couldn't pick up the ball and couldn't beat his opponent at any time one on one..Frawley just as bad..

Paul Roos ; your opponents became crippled by lack of rotations and options and yet still manufactured a flogging. . YOU were out-coached, but you're supposed to be accomplished .

Our list is rubbish but you know this and I expect you to allow for this in your coaching. You're accountable. That was pathetic

We got the wrong coach. A non committal, defensive strategist who from day one at Sydney took over a decent team. You either want to coach on a rolling contract or you don't. I don't care who you are, you cannot pick when you will walk away from your club. If the coach isn't committed, why should the players be. From day one, Roos has referred to the playing group as 'them'. When we are poor, he blames the previous heirachy's failings. No accountability. I suspect Paul is keen to leave now, scared of losing his reputation as a great coach. Which he is not. Great coaches teams play great footy.

After the last home and away game let Melbourne play Casey giving Nathan Jones a day off as he is possibly the only player worth keeping.

Then look at the talent in the Swans, Hawthorn and Geelong VFL teams and probably get many of our new players from them.

It is so depressing!

I just can't believe we beat tiges, blues, dons and crows.

It just doesn't make sense.

they all kicked poorly against us and we had less scoring shots than all 4 teams in each game

Fluke wins

We are still as bad as 2012/13

Me too. To my 4 kids, I am so sorry. At least I had Flower, Shwartz, the Wiz, Neita, Jurrah. My kids get nothing.

It's like a never ending torture that the team you loved as a kid is an embarrassment to your children.

Went today with my seven year old daughter. She can't understand how we can lose by so much on our home ground to gws. Honestly, I can't either.

I don't see a future for the mfc or a way forward. We have steadily deteriorated over his year. There is no hope, no spark. Nothing that I can honestly say gives some semblance of hope.

and Paul Roos is an average coach who was made to look great thanks to a COLA inflated salary cap

Now I'm going to take a swipe at some players. Look away if you are inclined to defend the indefensible.

MacDonald... your inability to pump the ball towards goal when you were in position to do so in the first quarter is a signal to the opposition that you are a limited footballer!

Dawes... give us more than a long run towards the ball carrier!

Frawley... get whatever you can from the player transfer rules because your best days are surely behind you!

That's the trouble with when they turn seven. Even a rudimentary understanding of counting makes a cover up nigh impossible.

Roos just needs to trade for picks and develop a fresh crop

Petracca, brayshaw, Ellis and stretch is a good start

Hang on thats not fair. He did switch Chip and Dunn after half time.

We are still every chance of winning the spoon even if Stkilda don't win another game! Eagles n Roos will feast on the carcass we have become!

Oh well English Premier League is back thank Faaahhc! My family deserves better than my selfish obsession of supporting such horrible almost unwatchable tripe!

Those teams would be cursing those losses pretty much all of them will see it as costing them a finals spot.

I wasn't even that angry today, nowhere near 186 levels of disgust - I think I'm just completely desensitised to the MFC now, couldn't even be bothered yelling out or booing the team like so many others were doing to vent their frustration. I was sitting there in between laughs and cracking jokes at our expense with my brother just trying to figure out how this club can ever turn it around. It's gonna take a full decade of list turnover and development - when guys like Gawn, Tyson, Viney & Salem are our senior/mature players we may have a chance at a flag until then I think all we can hope for is to be around where Richmond is in about 4-5 years.

Let's look on the bright side guys. Very good chance we will have picks 2,3,4

They could give us all top ten picks but it wouldn't make a bl@@dy difference.

Look at the lions last night... Not many top ten picks but gee they have a red hot dip... Why? There are standards and each player has the guts to look each other in the eye after a game and say they gave their all... Our mob are just pathetic, mollycoddled princesses.

Wow, this must be bad. The anti Roos club is occurring already.

He's not exactly proving the doubters wrong..

People saying it's Paul Roos fault have no idea! How many coaches can this mob burn! I put it on the culture of our club! When things get tough we go pack up shop. Judge Roos after his 3 years!

    There were a number of Demonland Trackwatchers at Gosch's Paddock this morning to bring you their observations from Preseason Training. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS They were going hard at each other. The sims were in two 15 minute blocks. The second block finished a few minutes early, they gathered and had another 7 minutes at it. I think they were asked to compete, as they would play against an opposition. There was plenty of niggle, between some of them. At the end o

    Better late than never … and quite frankly, there’s very little to report other than that training took place at Casey Fields this morning, that Tracc was there nursing his rib injury and that some photographs are on the club’s social media including this one of Clarrie in Raging Bull stance that gives rise for confidence. The other news is that the club has a new train on player in 185cm Dandenong Stingrays midfielder Noah Hibbins-Hargreaves (love the hyphenated name which is just so fitti

    Welcome back to Demonland for those like me who have been on vacation. I’m posting this with some trepidation because of a certain amount of uncertainty surrounding the return of preseason training in 2025 after a flurry of weddings including those of our coach, one of our superstar players and a former premiership champion player and bloke, not to mention the recent mysterious incident that occurred on the Mornington Peninsula.  I believe that the team reassembles this morning at Casey Fie

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A few new faces joined our veteran Demonland Trackwatchers on a beautiful morning out at Gosch's Paddock for another Preseason Training Session.
