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

 

Every member and supporter deserves an apology from the playing group.

But we wont get one.. do you know why?

The players do not give a flying [censored] about the members and supporters.

I reckon it's more of a lada

I'm so [censored] off. We could have been playing Box Hill 2nds today & still would have been beaten. MFC, get stuffed, No more money out of me.

And I'm talking a reconditioned Lada with 300,000 on the clock


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.

Club needs a psychiatrist seriously..... What is inside the minds of these players, just tell me what it is, i would love to know.

I don't want an apology.

I don't care any more.

They will need to [censored] beg me to come back.

I'm actually upset I've already paid for next year's membership

Any-one got Roos or Jacksons email address?


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.

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.

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 Wonder whether it would be better if we just folded, would be painful but at least we would be put out of our misery,better than feeling like this week after week year after year. Can't be buying this 'hope' from this lame club any longer

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.

  • WHAT’S NEXT? by The Oracle

    What’s next for a beleagured Melbourne Football Club down in form and confidence, facing  intense criticism and disapproval over some underwhelming recent performances and in the midst of a four game losing streak? Why, it’s Adelaide which boasts the best percentage in the AFL and has won six of its last seven games. The Crows are hot and not only that, the game is at the Adelaide Oval; yet another away fixture and the third in a row at a venue outside of Victoria. One of the problems the Demons have these days is that they rarely have the luxury of true home ground advantage, something they have enjoyed just once since mid April.

  • REPORT: Gold Coast

    From the start, Melbourne’s performance against the Gold Coast Suns at Peoples First Stadium was nothing short of a massive botch up and it came down in the first instance to poor preparation. Rather than adequately preparing the team for battle against an opponent potentially on the skids after suffering three consecutive losses, the Demons looking anything but sharp and ready to play in the opening minutes of the game. By way of contrast, the Suns demonstrated a clear sense of purpose and will to win. From the very first bounce of the ball they were back to where they left off earlier in the season in Round Three when the teams met at the MCG. They ran rings around the Demons and finished the game off with a dominant six goal final term. This time, they produced another dominant quarter to start the game, restricting Melbourne to a solitary point to lead by six goals at the first break, by which time, the game was all but over.

  • CASEY: Gold Coast

    Coming off four consecutive victories and with a team filled with 17 AFL listed players, the Casey Demons took to their early morning encounter with the lowly Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium with the swagger of a team that thought a win was inevitable. They were smashing it for the first twenty minutes of the game after Tom Fullarton booted the first two goals but they then descended into an abyss of frustrating poor form and lackadaisical effort that saw the swagger and the early arrogance disappear by quarter time when their lead was overtaken by a more intense and committed opponent. The Suns continued to apply the pressure in the second quarter and got out to a three goal lead in mid term before the Demons fought back. A late goal to the home side before the half time bell saw them ten points up at the break and another surge in the third quarter saw them comfortably up with a 23 point lead at the final break.

  • POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Gold Coast

    The Demons did not come to play from the opening bounce and let the Gold Coast kick the first 5 goals of the match. They then outscored the Suns for the next 3 quarters but it was too little too late and their season is now effectively over.
