Disgraceful.

That is all.

Was probably misquoted. He probably said "we expect 'to be beaten' by Hawks"
 

Hawthorn have more goals (21) than Melbourne have had kicks inside their forward fifty (18).
 

I'd really like PJ and/or the chair of the board to write to members this week and tell us what the plan is

This club has not recovered from 186 & the whole tanking period

I now wonder if it ever will.

Make T Mac the Captain Tomorrow.

I love Jonesy but he is not the answer

The club is Dead against any pressure

Thanks Schwaby you put the dagger right through this place.

The jumper means nothing.

You're not allowed to speak ill of Jones around here.

Didn't you get the memo?

Yes, let's rotate the captaincy every six months.

If there is someone out on that field worthy of leading the team, it is Nathan Jones.

If Roos is an honourable guy, he'll walk away and not get a pay out and let the successor who has an actual vested interest in doing a good job take over now

Slow hands too . Arrgh

confidence lack of lets ease up on this kid, or we'll damage him to.

Lol

Our two best midfielders are Jones and Tyson. Jones has been well below his best all year imo, and Tyson doesn't even look like the same player. And our midfield is so thin we need them both firing.


And we're supposed to develop young players in this environment how?...

I am not joking.

T Mac is not afraid to stand up

Interesting Press conference tonight.

"We've come a long way."

Can we please invoke the 'mercy' rule and sound the siren :wacko:

No. He needs to stay on and continue to try and right the ship and get rid of as many useless players as he can.

Only so that Goodwin doesn't have to focus as much of his attention on this continual failure of a re-build and list management.

Lol

You happy with job Roosy's done are you Jaded

Roosy in tears in the box..

Taught a lesson in footy today

We should've rested the whole team and forfeited the match. This is demoralising yo the players.


Pedders getting some reward for effort. 3 goals.

Toumpas was damaged goods before we recruited him.

VFL is his game.

Roos isn't out there disgracing himself though lack of effort.

I do feel for poor Tom McDonald. He was hurting badly last week, and gets the brunt of our lack of midfield. Without him we would be looking at 187.

  • PREVIEW: Carlton

    Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.

  • REPORT: North Melbourne

    I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

  • CASEY: Werribee

    The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

  • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

    The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
