It should be a set play. they players would have known there wasn't long left, Jones and Dunn should have been screaming to get the set up right.

Jones and Dunn's leadership ain't worth an average leaders toe jam.

Bottle of Wine to the greatest over-reaction.

I'm tipping WYL as he warms up but Gorgoroth os way ahead with all that "salt the earth" stuff.

Without Hogan probably would have lost by 5 goals.

Another big cleanout at seasons end.

Are players allowed to shepherd now or is this called blocking.

Completely structure less team down the line

and so sad to see our players except for a few are really timid and won't annoy, harass and get in the face and do something on the mark

Check IQ level of every player.

Paul Roos is a Neeld level match day coach

If he doesnt fix the culture he should hand back every cent we pay him cos he isnt here for his coaching ability thats for sure

Ridiculous comment ... Just as frustrated as you mate.....

We forget how far off the pace we wr in 2013... Turned over 18-20 players with more to come ....want fix our list issues in 2 drafts!

Previous mgt screwed our list for close to 10 drafts!

Michie came on as sub. Kicks a terrible floater and chokes near the ball. Both at vital times.

Another to throw in the MFC delist scrap heap.

Yet another potato. Can't believe people cry out for his selection nearly every week. VFL player.

I agree

But we're talking about a group of players who haven't got a lot of experience like a geelong or Freo, hawks etc

We should have done what you wanted - but there is no timeout to reorganise -

Saints just got lucky which pisses me off more because we should have won - but we blew it

Still too many oldies in the scared to win brigade. One we can sort this out there will be no turning back.

It's because we move the ball too slowly because Roos plays a loose man in defense which means the opposition have a loose man in defense.

No excuse for an uncontested mark after the ball has been held up that long. Something needs to change.

Jones, Lumumba, Dunn, Cross, Vince simply have to know better, they are there to guide the inexperience

This will suck the absolute life out of this footy club now.

We will get flogged by Geelong next week and then cop another hiding against WC after the bye,

I predicted a bottom 3 finish and [censored] like Curry berated me.

This club is [censored] too predictable.

You're lucky I'm quite partial to italics.

So I've been predicting 6-8 wins for most of the year. I think it'll be 6. :P

Who?

Carlton and Brisbane are both a big stretch with current form.

At least with the juniors and the kids, the lack of experience provides a reason why things go wrong in the heat of the last minutes.

There is no such excuse for the leaders.

It's ridiculous that there are people on here having a go at Toumpas because Montagna kicked that goal. Not only was Toumpas possibly our best today, but that goal could have been kicked by anyone. A clogged backline would have helped.

Not having a go and don't want to add to the toump bashing but he got caught napping.

Toumpas is playing better than he was, no doubt.

But lets call a spade a spade here. He is as outside as outside gets. Any sort of pressure of physicality and he looks for an immediate hand off.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out

    GOOD MORNING by Meggs

    If you are driving or training it to Cranbourne on Saturday, don’t forget to set your alarm clock. The Melbourne Demons play the reigning premiers Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields this Saturday, with the bounce of the ball at 11:05am.  Yes, that’s AM.   The AFLW fixture shows deference to the AFL men’s finals games.  So, for the men it’s good afternoon and good evening and for the women it’s good morning.     The Lions were wounded last week by 44 points, their highest ever los

    HORE ON FIRE by Meggs

    The 40,000 seat $319 million redeveloped Kardinia Park Stadium was nowhere near capacity last night but the strong, noisy contingent of Melbourne supporters led by the DeeArmy journeyed to Geelong to witness a high-quality battle between two of the best teams in AFLW.   The Cats entered the arena to the blasting sounds of Zombie Nation and made a hot start kicking the first 2 goals. They brought tremendous forward half pressure, and our newly renovated defensive unit looked shaky.

    REMATCH by Meggs

    The Mighty Demons take on the confident Cats this Saturday night at the recently completed $319 million redeveloped GMHBA Stadium, with the bounce of the ball at 7:15pm. Our last game of 2023 was an agonisingly close 5-point semi-final loss to Geelong, and we look forward to Melbourne turning the tables this week. Practice match form was scratchy for both teams with the Demons losing practice matches to Carlton and Port Adelaide, while the Cats beat Collingwood but then lost to Essendo

    WELCOME 2024 by Meggs

    It’s been hard to miss the seismic global momentum happening in Women’s sport of late. The Matildas have been playing to record sell-out crowds across Australia and ‘Mary Fowler is God’ is chalked onto footpaths everywhere. WNBA basketball rookie sensation Caitlin Clark has almost single-handedly elevated her Indiana Fever team to unprecedented viewership, attendances and playoffs in the USA.   Our female Aussie Paris 2024 Olympians won 13 out of Australia’s all-time record 18 gol

    EPILOGUE by Whispering Jack

    I sit huddled in near darkness, the only light coming through flickering embers in a damp fireplace, the room in total silence after the thunderstorm died. I wonder if they bothered to restart the game.  No point really. It was over before it started. The team’s five star generals in defence and midfield ruled out of the fray, a few others missing in action against superior enemy firepower and too few left to fly the flag for the field marshal defiantly leading his outnumbered army int
