A bit of both.  It has also been lack of space.  Saints have worked harder this quarter to tighten the contest and we instinctively look for a handball if not in the clear. It's an experience/decisive thing; were playing too strictly to the game plan instead of adapting. 

In particular, they've gotten on to of the midfield contest this quarter. 

Y can't we kick a goal

Our descision making is still terrible at times. Our voice must be poor as well, how many times have we been run down?! Saints pressure has been amazing in second qtr.

Get [censored]. 

I am so sick of losing to insignifent rubbish clubs. 

We are an infuriating dumb bunch of footballers playing lazy football. 

They want it and we don't. Simple. And beyond pathetic.

They will know they have us now. Same as the last 13 games in a row.

 

Pity the fool who plonked his hard earned on this mob today. We just cannot beat this shithouse mob at this gtround.

Three times in the last 5 minutes they've had a player loose 40meters from the kick out with nobody anywhere near them.

Well some of us could see this coming in the first quarter, clearly Melbourne couldn't.

Well done, you got it right! Still, if you're unrelentingly negative, you'll get it right when it happens.

You can't lose if you expect it to be horrible every time. Sometimes it is, and you win. Sometimes it's not, and you win.

[censored] pathetic effort. You'd think they could just flood and kill the ball for a minute. That's just stupid and lazy football.

We fundamentally do not know what to do from a mark or free kick.

  1. We don't get behind the man on the mark quick enough
  2. We have a lot of players who are one-sided that tend to run to their non-favoured side
  3. We don't face towards the goal so end up kicking on an angle

Appalling quarter.

Slow, lazy, poor structures, and two simple set shots missed.

Gawn getting murdered by Hickey for the second time this year.

So similar to the previous St Kilda game.

Could not be more upset right now.

Gee we look tired, who would have thought?.....

 

Love it. Was wondering how long it would take you.

Actually, we just look like badly skilled, unaware footballers.

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo.
