our boys just don't play instinctive attacking footy....they don't back themselves from the get go and only start taking their opponents on and taking risks when the game is well and truly lost

There's no p in hamster.

You've obviously never had a pet hamster. Their p stinks.

Dawes marks turns outside instead of inside then proceeds to hack the ball forward to the advantage of them.... Fm he has no idea

When can we start questioning Roos' gameplan? Swans have been very average and our movement forward is as bad as I've seen.

Unaccountable football. We could have won this if we could actually generate some momentum. Swans put the cue in the rack at half time and we haven't done a thing to challenge them.

agree..they heed far too much a plan they cant employ and lack footy nouse.

It's funny, we actually have a forward line now, but we still can't score because the midfield persist in these ill-directed bombs rather than actual passes to the advantage of their forwards.

Watts came on as the sub and is just loping around.

Another poor sub selection. He should've had a full game at vfl level. Playing him as the sub has achieved nothing, just as when Neeld did it.

It's his incredible lack of effort that is just destroying to watch.

Hogan is just a star in the making. He reads the ball so well. And he can kick em from 50.

Sign him up please!!

30pts (5 in a row)

That scoreboard doesn't reflect the game.

Should have lost by 100 (swans given up)

@Young Dee Swans have been average. We could have won this

They have looked flat since the 2nd quarter and we did nothing to take advantage

Sydney didn't win this. We lost it.

Hogan, Salem, Stretch, Brayshaw, Tommy Mac.. at least there is something to build on.

God knows there is enough crap to be swept out (yet again) at years end.

A dozen players or more have had no impact.

Trying to find 6 good players is a fruitless exercise ... Salem & T-Mac have done well.

Our skills are deplorable

Give t-Mac a medal. Given the heat and who he was playing on that was one amazing game

If any SA side offers us anything better than a 3rd round pick for Toumpas - we'd be mad not to take it.

No club in their right minds would give us anything for Toumpas, he'll be playing SANFL next year.

Posted

Salem, TMac and H can walk of the ground knowing they tried.

So many players went missing

Our midfield sucks - Jones, Tyson and Vince need to lead the way

Don't know if I will bother next week

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

We'll break down the Match SIM against North Melbourne and wrap up the preseason with insights into training and our latest recruits.

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo. The play start time was brought forward from the initial 11am bounce, due to the high temperatures forecast.  The match sim will consist of four 25-minute qu
