Recommended Posts

Havent even got the game on tv. Cant bring myself to watch us getting absolutely hammered again. Have just about lost all hope after the last 10 years. Can we even pretend to behave like a football team?

Hawks aren't like Sydney.

This *will* be a 100 point loss.

Nathan Jones and Tyson disappointing yet again. They have both been well below their best all year.

Jones can't get away with just going through the motions anymore. He has failed to take his game to the next level.

I just hope that Hogan really is sore because we look like a team that has conceded defeat before the game even started

Sick of this shithouse attitude. We should have enough belief in ourselves to at least give a contest

Also I repeat, why the [censored] is Spencer playing ahead of Jamar???

Institute a drinking game where you down a shot every time the Hawks score a goal and at least you won't remember the game.

The players turn up just awaiting the inevitable thrashing, so why should supporters bother getting their hopes up? Mentally weak and pathetic leadership across the board.

I'm off to enjoy this beautiful Autumn day, which so rarely fall on weekends. Just look at that sunshine!

Howe, Dawes, Lumumba, Vince

Experienced guys that are doing absolutely nothing

Its hard watching us get sucked in.

All our players chase the ball carrier. They wait until we have commited and then pass it off to a free running player.

The last 3 weeks have been garbage. Never going to win these games but the required effort just hasn't been there. Make these teams earn these wins FFS. Its depressing how far away we are from these teams.

Just curious Ding... when did u start thinking we might be here to play AFL footy like the other 17 clubs?

What would you suggest Maple? Midori with a coke chaser?

Posted

Can we FFS make a tackle stick?

Exactly. The Hawks just shrug our tacklers off or eventually shake them.

If we can't manage to put some muscle into our tackling we will be an absolute laughing stock.

For the first 10 minutes we were even or better in general play. Really good intensity, clearances were in our favour, and we got some space forward.

But our skill errors undo our hard work and it kills our confidence. Bail's kick across goal was embarrassing.

Our set up when the ball is in their forward line is terrible, too.

high time some of senior players put their hand up tyson jones viv shocking not competive at all

Posted

Bails kick to rough head sums us up and the game well.

I'm out. Enjoy

Thanks Ethan I am stuck in the Southern Stand!!

    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

    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
