Apparently we got the quick answer while I was taking a wiz. Maybe I should spend the rest of the day in the loo.

 
 

North and the Hawks are the most protected vic clubs. No wonder we have 2 frees to our name!

And we are playing like crap


Whatever the opposite of a scapegoat is, Cam Pedersen may be that for me right now; but I'm going to keep harping on the fact that our forward structure has seriously suffered in his absence this week.

Stuffing around with it, are we the worst wet weather side in the AFL?

 

Soul-crushing goal to Carlton inside the last minute. Such a disappointing day.

Ffs ... doesn't anyone look where theyre kicking today !!!

Fair call he should have been in.

Should be first one picked each week

This.


How the f did we beat Hawthorn ?

Given what was on the line, this is worse than the Essendon debacle.

Carlton have lost their last nine games.

Needless to say I think we were entitled to expect a better outcome than what has been delivered.

Anyway the last week has been fun.

Now back to the usual life of a Melbourne supporter.

Most disappoint effort I can remember. Playing a bottom 4 team who haven't won for nearly 3 months and this is what we serve up. Yes the umpires have been horrendous, but we are playing dumb football with zero intensity. Soul crushing.


Our attitude is disgusting. Pea hearted. 

We had everything to play for today and apart from 2 or 3 players we are getting nothing from our players. 

Not only do we not deserve to make finals we don't deserve to be considered a team on the rise until this mentally pissweak attitude and soft underbelly is rid of. 

Shameful performance.

Rock paper scissors, if rocks were capable of underestimating their opponents.

Embarrassing.

 

 

 

Calling leaders... leadership... maybe some ideas from the coaches box...

No...

 

Ok, carry on as we have for the first three quarters.

Respect.
That is our issue.
We think we are something we are not.
Hawthorn can go into a match confident. As can Geelong or Sydney. But you will never find them with an arrogant, laissez faire attitude.
Two times this year this has happened. You would think the Essendon loss would have been the only wake up call we would have needed. Our boys need a pin in their heads before they can think about finals.

    Wayward kicking for goal, dump kicks inside 50 and some baffling umpiring all contributed to the Dees not getting out to an an early lead that may have impacted the result. At the end of the day the Demons were just not good enough and let the Hawks run away with their first win against the Demons in 7 years.

  • GAMEDAY: Hawthorn

    It’s game day and the Demons are chasing a fourth straight win as we take on the high flying Hawks at the G. After decades of being tormented by the Hawks the Dees will be keen to extend their 7 year dominance over Hawthorn.

  • NON-MFC: Round 09

    Round 9 kicks off out west with the Dockers hosting a Collingwood side resting several stars. Fremantle need to make a statement on their home deck after some disappointing form on the road, while the Magpies will be keen to maintain their Top 2 position. Friday night sees a must-win clash between two sides desperate to stay in touch with the eight. St Kilda have shown glimpses while Carlton are clinging to relevance after a flat start to the season. Saturday’s twilight game at Marvel pits the Bombers against a struggling Sydney outfit. Essendon can’t afford another close match against a lower-ranked side, while the Swans risk sliding down the ladder even further. Up in Darwin, the fourth-placed Suns will look to extend their stay in the top four. The Bulldogs have hit their stride with three big wins on the trot and will be very keen to consolidate on their momentum. The always fiery Showdown looms as pivotal for both clubs. Adelaide are eyeing a spot in the Top 4 with a win, while Port Adelaide’s season could slip away if they drop another game and fall further behind the pack. Sunday begins with a yawn fest between Richmond and West Coast. The Tigers need to bank the points to stay clear of the bottom two, while the Eagles are still chasing their first win of the year. The Giants face one of the league’s toughest road trips as they travel to GMHBA Stadium to face the Cats. With GWS at risk of a third straight loss, Geelong will be eager to consolidate their position inside the eight and start their climb up the ladder. The round wraps up with the top-of-the-table Lions heading to Ninja Stadium to take on the second-last Roos. The Lions should easily take care of the struggling Roos who might be powerless against the best in the comp. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?
