Results speak.

We are seeing the real damage done by the tanking era.

What did Buckley say to Pendlebury? Paraphrasing, "We don't pick and and choose when we put in. We put in unconditionally."

A team coached or encouraged not to win, un-learns how to win.

Not even the great Mark Neeld could eradicate the cancer. Poor bugger was set up. Who knows what he could have done with a team that puts in.

5 tackles in first quarter today.

Last three games 23 goals to 3 in first quarters.

Says it all really.

We start games with absolutely no effort.

Shameful.

This coach transition business ??

Normally a coach comes in .... breath of fresh air , ... new game plan... no preconceptions..

Our next coach, is coming in tarred with the bollocks of games like today!!

Very depressing.

I'll keep buying 4 premium memberships every year and buying those stupid 200$ raffle tickets.... Its what we do

But games like today are just the pits.

And Garlett!!! ... i didn't think he was playing until i saw him chatting with his old chums at half time!!!!

Turnovers kill in modern footy.

We are the greatest serial killers in the game's history.

We either get rid of the unskilled players, or continue with the crap being served up.

Results speak? His results have been impressive, especially considering his age, lack of experience, and woeful quantity and quality of service he gets.

He had a stinker today, but the above comment is absolute drivel.

And Garlett!!! ... i didn't think he was playing until i saw him catting with his old chums at half time!!!!

"Yeah, not bad. You? It's good here, they're paying me a bomb, and it's light duties. Not much danger of getting injured, everyone's easy going, especially the coaches, yeah, but here's the kicker. I'm one of the best players and they love me! My skills are declining, so is my desire, my heart, and everything else you need to win, but as soon my contract's up I'll be out of here before it's too late for a flag. Nice work if you can get it."

oh ffs

I've decided to go back and watch our round 8 win against the Bulldogs, we are a different looking team from then. Also, don't underestimate the difference vandenBerg has made, he's a ruthless machine who adds so much to our team.

Your [censored] kiddin me right?

Ah yes sorry 39 ta

Your [censored] kiddin me right?

Ah I hope he is,, because if not we might as well fold the club now!

Maybe its a time to consider a name change away from the Demons. Its obviously a bridge too far for our players to understand how a Demon should play. How about a return to the Fuchsias or is that an insult to the plant world?

Spot on Redleg

Most of our players have poor kicking and hand ball skills .

To replace them will take another 3 years mininum

Not sure most supporters after a decade of crap can go the distance.

Tassie may get a side quicker than they think.

Poor buggers they don't deserve us.

The Tassie Devils hnmm well might go better than the Melb Demons??

Nar the AFL wouldn't contemplate it ... surely!?

I think I'll take a year off from footy. Should be good for me.

They are not unskilled.

They are uncommitted.

A year off from supporting this club can only do wonders for one's mental health.

Sorry Praha I don't agree

Carlton kicked five goals from turnovers in the first half.

They were the direct result of our inability to hit targets by foot and hand.

It has been happening for months.

We constantly kick ourselves out of games.

How did we lose to the bombers?

Poor kicking.

How did we lose to St kilda twice?

Poor kicking.

We are blessed with a team of players who in the main cannot hit targets in games be they their teams mates or the score board.

I simply refuse to allow this current generation of inept, overpaid and mentally weak mfc players, the uninspiring on field leaders and the seemingly endlessly pathetic mfc player performances & results to make me want to give up on this club and the dream of one day seeing my footy team win a flag.

I am 33 years old and so I can't profess to have suffered through the clubs woes during the late 60s, 70s and early 80, but looking back to the days when I first really started supporting this club as a12 yr old watching the ox (pre knee recos) tear up and G against the blues in the 94 finals series, it seems like a lifetime ago, but even then I could sense we were bitterly close to an elusive flag, and just the same in 98 and 2000 for many of the same reasons, hard luck , up there but just not good enough to go all the way. The ups and downs of the daniher era were annoying but you always knew we could turn things around and be competitive. I could never have imagined what lie in wake for us these past 8 years, but one thing I do know is that in this game the wheel keeps spinning, dynasties don't last forever and nor does languishing at the bottom of the ladder, yeah sure some clubs have a far better record than us of rebounding and turning things around , but no matter how far back you go through the history of the game , each club has it's day and it's moments, and it's glories, and we have been walking in the wilderness for a long time and waiting and dreaming (even if delusionally) for our time to come

Someone earlier on this thread referred to supporting Melbourne, paying your membership and enduring all of this sh$t over the past 10 years as an "obligation" I would agree and part of it also gives me a sense of calm when watching typical performances like this today, whilst frustrating, I feel more connected to this club (not the players or the administration) but it's history and supporters and the journey and the obligation not to give up on it and the desire to one day see it be a powerhouse again. I wish it would come quicker, but it won't, but I know one day it will
