Saints aren't much so why can't we beat them?

We haven't played a single good game against a side we considered equal or lesser than us before the game.

We beat GC when no one realised how bad they were and, including us, thought they were a top 8 side.

Simce then we've played poorly against St Kilda, Essendon, Brisbane, and now St Kilda again.

IMO, speaks to cultural/mental issues as much as anything.

Cancelled my direct debit membership, I can't give up a full day and $60 in petrol, parking etc for this club anymore, too long has this gone on and I can't take it anymore, I'm shot.

This will be breaking point for quite a few I think.

I think a lot of us feel this way me included.

Disgraceful, pathetic, useless, and pathetic.

Yes I know I said pathetic twice but I thought it was called for.

I think you are over exaggerating.

In retrospect I think the Essendon game was for me. Didn't go last week, didn't go today and seriously reconsidering going next week. I might put the cue in the rack for the rest of the year, the players have.

Both coaches talked about the 52 midfield turnovers to the Saints. Yes, 52!!

Lucky that wasn't a 15 goal loss!

No, Garland is on him.

Garland has already shown immaturity in flying for a contest when two Melbourne players were already in the air leaving Roo out the back and it eventually resulted in a goal thanks to Roo.

A minute later he kicked a nothing kick which went 40 metres in the air, eventually fell in arms of a St Kilda player and eventually got to Roo who is Garland's player.

It's honestly laughable that supporters think he is so important when his FA value would offer us so much more.

Our backline is horribly one-dimensional. He doesn't 'add' anything.

He is a decent one on one player and that is it.

This is your best ever post. Both of those incidents happened in the first quarter. Garland was atrocious. Gifted Roo 2 goals because he didn't pay him any respect at all. When he flew for the contest I was screaming at him to get back on Roo.

He is a dumb footballer and is the top of my list to go.

Dunn did a few dumb things as well. Again in the 1st when the heat was on he was alone on the members wing as the ball was being kicked around the outer wing into St Kilda's fwd line. No guesses to see whose opponent scored a goal.

We are the dumbest laziest football team going around. So many times you could see what was going to happen 15-20 seconds ahead of the ball and yet we couldn't get back to cover off a man or corral their team into a pocket. We are simply unable to trap the ball inside our fwd 50. OUr centre clearance work is abominable yet the number of times the Aints streamed out of the middle was unbelievably frustrating.

We can't hit targets, Our 'structures' are laughable. The coaching is bad.

There isn't a lot of hope when last years wooden spooner beats us twice in 6 weeks.

I'd like to hear from the Roos fan bois about what is going on? The Saints and Dogs have gone past us. Aside from Carlton and an injury reduced Gold Coast we have gone backwards. We have not improved.

I am over this club.

And the umpiring was the worst I have ever seen. Bar none. I think they had 7 holding the ball decisions in the first half. Probably the total we have had for the year.

The mistakes by the green maggots ruined what was , in any case, a very ordinary game.

Watts gets pinged for dropping the ball when he clearly kicked, it.

Watts has his legs nearly broken when a Saints player dived into it - free against Watts.

There were dozens of howlers.

Thanks AFL - you have farked the game up big time

Gill there were 99000 at the G for soccer this week,, You had better work fast. My wife and kids now refuse to go the footy. "Why would we go and watch them. They suck". I agree with them.

Gawn's ridiculous "holding the man". And Garlett's great tackle on Roberton unrewarded when he clearly dropped it. Players are less likely to be penalised when they drop the ball than if they hold onto it and take the tackle, it's completely stupid

    TRAINING: Monday 16th December 2024

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the sweltering heat to bring you their Preseason Training observations from Gosch's Paddock on Monday morning. SCOOP JUNIOR'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I went down today in what were pretty ordinary conditions - hot and windy. When I got there, they were doing repeat simulations of a stoppage on the wing and then moving the ball inside 50. There seemed to be an emphasis on handballing out of the stoppage, usually there were 3 or 4 handballs to

    A couple of intrepid Demonland Trackwatchers headed down to Gosch's Paddock for the midweek Preseason Training Session to bring you the following observations. Demonland's own Whispering Jack was not in attendance but he kicked off proceedings with the following summary of all the Preseason Training action to date. We’re already a month into the MFC preseason (if you started counting when the younger players in the group began the campaign along with some of the more keen older heads)

Roos Coach Darren Crocker has assembled a team chock-full of competitive and highly skilful players who outclassed the Brisbane Lions in the Grand Final to remain undefeated throughout Season 9. A huge achievement in what was a dominant season by North. For Melbourne fans, the season was unfortunately one of frustration and disappointment
