Is six beers and a bottle of red moderation?

It hasn't helped, still feel angry.

sounds like a good start !!! :)

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!

I thought Brayshaw looked injured in the last. He couldn't run. It's hard when a first year player is fast becoming our mid field gun..

Phone thumbs edit.

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

I'm shattered .....

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.

Its good to see you expressi g yourself like that but atleast you could compliment me on how right i am and so far superior then you?

Posted

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.

Dawes for Pederson and we probably win.

Rye. There's no internet there.

peed your panties in the NAB cup FFS

the problem is you have absolutely no spine

you'll be the first one back on the bandwagon after our next win

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.

I think it's fairly clear we need to get an a grader in like a Judd style trade. Trade in a captain.

HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today. Firstly the bad news - McVee went down late, which does look like a bad hammy - towards the end of match sim, as he kicked the ball. Had to

    Demonland Trackwatcher Gator ventured down the freeway to bring you his observations from Friday morning's Match Simulation out at Casey Fields.

Christian Petracca, Kade Chandler, Shane McAdam and Tom Fullarton doing non-contact kicking and handball drills on the adjacent oval.  All moving freely at pace.  I didn’

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
