GAME DAY - Round 7



Recommended Posts

100 points today, when you can't execute the basic fundamentals of the game, fans have every reason to switch off. I just can't understand how any afl footballer can get a game if they can't kick, how do you get drafted if you can't kick.

Nathan Jones has no defensive bone in his body, he is reminding me of Moloney, do what he wants and always 5-10m off his man

Any chance we can lay a tackle in the f50? Apparently 75% of he time we get it in there the Hawks get a goal. Wow. Just Wow.

What a stat What a bunch of lazy assed players we have.

Useless. Hardly takes skill to tackle. Its intent and desire. This team doesn't have it. CLean the list out again f&*&^ me

Can we FFS make a tackle stick?

They are treating us with absolute contempt. They know we are beneath them and are letting it show. No respect and the players don't seem to give a fuxc. Fly the flag Melbourne you're playing like a bunch of flowers, lift your heads and play like DEMONS!!!

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.

Jones is being tackles before he's even got the footy - who from our side is going over to help out the captain with a chop out? They've got a hard tag on him and he's got no support whatsoever

We have no one dangerous in our forward 50 so the Hawks will pay them no respect and just back each other in the contest while the rest run off and create mayhem. Can only prevent this if ur forward 50 pressure is up to AFL standard. It's not.

Our boys off HB rarely pull the trigger inside either. Up the line is too easy for the Hawks (and most clubs) who will just spoil and back their ball/foot skills to run & spread the ball back inside thier 50 real quick for the high % scoring conversion when its mostly one on one

seriously interesting choice of words there. Sums up quite a bit of Demonland, I think. (not a good time to be making such an observation, I know...)

I would even accept one of our guys starting a fight.... even if we lost the fight, at least it means we would have tried.

    CROSSROADS by The Oracle

    Melbourne stands at the crossroads.  Sunday’s game against the West Coast Eagles who have not met the Demons at the MCG in more than ten years, is a make or break for the club’s finals aspirations.  That proposition is self-evident since every other team the club will be opposed to over the next eight weeks of footy is a prospective 2024 finalist. To add to this perspective is the fact that while the Demons are now in twelfth position on the AFL table, they are only a game and a half b

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well

    GAMEDAY: Rd 16 vs Brisbane

    It's Game Day and the Dees are deep in the heart of enemy territory as they take on the Lions in Brisbane under the Friday Night Lights at the Gabba. Will the Demon finally be awakened and the season get back on track or will they meekly be sacrificed like lambs to the slaughter?

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi
