Are we playing off for the wooden spoon,sure looks like it. Changes for next week everyone. Supporting the Dees is like buying a new GREAT WALL four wheel drive instead of buying a 2nd hand Toyota Hi lux,do I need to say anymore.

I firmly believe the club has to bow it's head and apologise to the members.

We want honest answer to why we should continue supporting this club

Because I've had enough. Today is the last straw

Carlton have been [censored] all year and they embarrassed us

I just want this bunch of ars@ clow#s to show the type of commitment and resilience that we supporters have shown for most of our sorry football watching lives.

Apologies and empty rhetoric mean nothing and is what we get fed on a regular basis and until that gets replaced with effort and commitment on field we are doomed to footballing ignominy.

Norm Smith himself would struggle with this passionless, talentless group of prima donnas.

and what difference would an apology make? - SFA - i'm long past apologies

Exactly. As if the OP is going to go "yeah no worries, all good mate" if the club apologises. I remember Matty Primus looking down the camera and apologising for a Port performance when he was at the helm and it made him look like a complete amateur.

Besides, it may feel it in the heat of the moment, but the club is not trying to hurt you personally. We're all frustrated; it's part and parcel of team sport. If teams apologised to their fans every time they played poorly it would become a trite platitude very quickly.

A fellow Melbourne supporter actually gave me a smart ass comment today about how I was complaining about our skills... I could not believe it.

In this clubs case it would anyway.

I don't disagree, but I would like an honest explanation for once.

Are the players done? They had enough of the season? Is everyone still sick? Or are they just sick in the head?

We sat through years of gutless performances and Mark Neeld told me "it is what it is".

Well I say to the club "it is what it is when I don't spend yet another $400 next year to watch us lose"

This club can't expect supporters to keep giving, if all we get in return are abhorrent weak performances.

I need a reason other than Jesse Hogan and Angus Brayshaw, two players who will probably walk out on this club soon, to keep going and paying my fees. Right now, I have none.

Can I get a job as a player with the Melbourne Demons?

Can't be too bad. I could get paid good coin and Only have to work for a quarter of a day (sometimes half days). No one would care as your colleagues rarely at work either.

The only stakeholders that care are the customers (or supporters) but who cares they are used to pathetic half efforts over a number of years and besides we can avoid them for most of the year.

I'm just trying to picture what the apology would look like? Would all have to sign it? The wording would be critical as well as would the period it covers. Would Lucas Cook be a signatory?

I hope Jack Watts does an interpretative dance to go along with the written apology.

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an

    ALAS SPRINGS by Whispering Jack

    I got the word on Saturday from someone who knows someone inside the Fremantle camp that the Dockers were pumped and supremely confident about getting the W the next day against Melbourne at TIO Traeger Park in the red heart of the country. I was informed that the Dockers were extremely confident for a number of reasons. They had beaten the Demons on their home territory at the MCG at their last two meetings so they didn’t see beating them at Alice Springs as a problem. They belie

    TROUBLE by The Oracle

    Situated roughly in Australia's geographic centre, Alice Springs has for many years been a troubled town suffering from intermittent crime waves, particularly among its younger residents. There was a time a little while ago when things were so bad that some even doubted the annual AFL game in the town would proceed.  Now, the hope is that this Sunday’s Melbourne vs Fremantle encounter will bring joy to the residents of the town and that through the sport and the example of the participants,
