It's not like playing a Hawthorn or Sydney when they are just genuinely more skilled than us. We are better than this mob but just have not figured out how to beat them

FFS!!!! We are NOT better than them. How much evidence do you all need. They're not just better, they're 30 points better at least. Results DON'T lie!

Wow, bet no Melbourne supporter saw this result coming. /sarcasm

Yeah, let's just make two changes to the exhausted Darwin squad! An underdone Brayshaw, an underdone Wagner, and leave in an injured McDonald and Vince.

Christ this club is amateur sometimes. You just lost this way 2 months ago to this exact same club -- did ANYBODY research that game and formulate a new plan?! ANYONE???

If it makes you feel better mate. 

Here it is for you in one sentence: Tired or not, no changes that you can name would make a shred of difference to this result.

That's the other side of the problem. 

We lack leaders when the stakes are high.

Are you actually watching the game? You honestly think we don't look tired already?

Yes I am wathing, thanks very much.

We look exactly like we did the last time we lost to St Kilda, and we didn't play in Darwin that time.

In fact, we look similar to every time we lose this year.

No leaders. Lazy (not just tired). Dumb. Error-laden. Kids having down days at the same time. Going backwards 40 metres when we should be playing on.

There is so much more to this than fitness. You make it sound like another 1 or 2 personnel changes would fix all the problems.

LOL.

Nathan Jones, in his career, is 2-41 against St Kilda, North and Hawthorn.

Needs to step aside from captaincy at years end.

And tell me about the changes we made last time we played the Saints...

Seeing a pattern about Etihad yet?

You would think that if you only watch the saints when we play them. They have played some truly terrible football this year.

And Hogan keeps us his record as missing fairly easy shots when we desperately need one.

You're not actually watching are you? He landed on his coccyx in the second quarter, the same one that kept him out for a year. He's been on and off the bench getting treatment.

    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,
