good bye chris dawes waste of space

Classic Dees, playing teams into some great form.

Some of the 'chasing' efforts I've seen been token efforts at best. Jones, Tyson, Watts just jogging along, no intensity.

Just concede the game Melbourne, you're embarrassing the league.

At least JKH shows some intensity around the ball, could have used him today.

GWS had an unbelievable quarter. Some of those goals were freakish.

The disappointing thing as a Dees fan is our inability to find leaders. Let's not have a leadership group if no one stands up on the ground.

Jones looks injured. H, Cross, Dunn - experienced players need to stand up.

Melbourne stopped running. That's the only reason for the change in momentum. Viney is the only player having a crack the rest should hang their heads with that performance since quarter time.

Howe has been terrible if Newton didn't get knocked out he should've been subbed off.

Can't win it out of the middle either. Combine that with no running and that's why they've dominated.

Last week showed we can beat sides that don't turn up to play but GWS has come to play. What an awesome midfield. Pace, toughness and skill in spades.

A pity that GWS is a soulless, irrelevant footy club that no one is interested in while the Dees have so many long-term die-hard fans and rich history.

I blame James Brayshaw. If North (another slightly irrelevant footy club) had taken the cash and set up in the Gold Coast, GWS would never have been born...

In: JKH

Out: Dawes

A new low in game-day posting?

They didn't get 9 goals to zilch because of Chris Dawes.

McDonald and Viney have played well - anyone else?

Last week we couldn't find a poor player, this week we've hardly got anyone who's stood up. A reminder of how much work needs doing with this list.

This reply is depressing so when does todays game start?

I am absolutely fuming with this effort since midway through the second quarter. Once again a bunch of Melbourne players getting ahead of themselves and thinking it's just gonna happen. Shows an extremely weak mindset to 1) think this in the first place and 2) not being able to do anything to arrest the momentum once it swings against us.

I thought these might be behind us. Damn last week. Damn you for getting my hopes up that we were going to be an ok team that would compete.

Well the reality check came a little sooner than expected. And from GWS of all teams.

Back to being the joke of the league. At least Carlton will take some of the heat from us.

HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today. Firstly the bad news - McVee went down late, which does look like a bad hammy - towards the end of match sim, as he kicked the ball. Had to

    Demonland Trackwatcher Gator ventured down the freeway to bring you his observations from Friday morning's Match Simulation out at Casey Fields. Rehab: Jake Lever and Charlie Spargo running laps.  Lever was running short distances at a fast click as well as having kick to kick with a trainer. He seems unimpeded. Christian Petracca, Kade Chandler, Shane McAdam and Tom Fullarton doing non-contact kicking and handball drills on the adjacent oval.  All moving freely at pace.  I didn’

    TRAINING: Wednesday 5th February 2025

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
