We just can't buy a goal, and every time we do Carlton go straight back down the other end and score one.

Lazy, leaderless, unaccountable footy. Not one player standing up.

I was fuming when I saw Pederson had been dropped, our entire forward structure has fallen apart today and Weideman simply wasn't the right man to come in for him.

Agreed .... Playing a baby to win a crucial game of footy. The youth at all costs policy should be renamed "Youth at a massive cost"

Well done FD

Lost at the selection table and above the shoulders

Why do we always lose these games? After three years of it and with Roos at the helm, you'd think they would have sorted it out by now.

Back in your hole.

My hole....settle down.

How do you tolerate this?

And don't mention the win against Hawthorn and Port.

Possibly the worst coaching performance from Roos when you consider the team selection, match ups and structure.

His 'let them learn and adapt' ethos needs intervention at times. Goodwin needs to rip into these players and take control.

Nothing else to say.

 

Embarrassing footy.

 

BT on one radio station, Hardie on another, really need foxtel.

Don't mention this loss or the one to Essendon then.

I've had enough of Hogan. 

He can take his attitude and his VFL level kicking and go away. 

Yeah I agree. I have privately thought that for a while now.

Patheric performance, woeful effort. As soon as we get pumped up in the media, we drink our own bath water, fans included. Finals are far from a certainty next year, as we are still weak in the head.

I raised this point two weeks ago. Take away finals it's apparently too much to expect players to turn up for work 22 days a year.

Six behinds in a row says it all.

You guys (and gals) are all nuts. Hogan has quite literally been our only forward today.

The coaches bought into the arrogance.

Hard to split this and the Essendon game for worst losses of the year. I'm gutted right now. It was going to be such an old Melbourne thing to come out today and lose to bloody Carlton. We had to prove people wrong and show we've moved past this kind of heartbreaking, peahearted [censored].

But no, we serve up this predictably terrible performance and throw finals in the bin.


Forget Hurley and Hibbered, we need class in the midfield, we really have none, just blue collar hard workers (not today though).

Exactly Chook.  19 touches and 14 marks.  His kicking for goal over the off season needs some serious work, but to suggest he has a bad attitude with stats like that is ludicrous.

No doubting his set shots have increasingly become an issue as this year has gone on though,

Petracca as well for that matter. Both could be anything, but have a fixable flaw in their games.

The three guys we brought in today werent even seen.... 

 

I don't know if this or the boomers game was more pathetic....

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
