It is possible for today to be pathetic (it is) and the 2016 season to be successful (it has been).

We may have improved some elements but it's hardly a successful is it if this is the litmus

Maybe if you were clearer

Pretty sure you were the only one to interpret my post as blaming the supporters for the way the team was playing. Honestly if that's the inference you drew, nothing else I say is going to help.

Looks like the social media people have gone on holiday, no tweet from Melbourne for 20 minutes

Honestly, I reckon they're as fed up as we are.

Sounds like a good game for me to miss. The off season can't come quick enough for us or the players. Thanks for the improvement this year MFC, have a break, get stuck into preseason and let's launch an assault on the finals in 2017.

Salem our best player today. 

Frost and Hunt. Easily.

And we will go below 100% and to 11th after this limp ugliness.

Hogan has laid 2 tackles over the last 5 weeks.

Checked out already or just another youngster at the end of a long season?

I just watched that incident a couple of times and it was caused by Hogan playing for the free, and animating the effect of the jumper scrag.

So why is this the litmus? Why not say the Hawthorn game was the litmus?

No one game is definitive of the season, the season is the litmus and the season has been a success.

It would just have been more successful if we hadn't turned in a disgrace of a performance today.

Essendrug leading Carlscum by 7 goals yet we lose to both of them. 

Sadly beating Whorethorn was a blip on the radar. 

Still a Mentally Soft Club after 3 years of Roosy. 

Club is still on shaky ground. 

The season is 23 weeks long. Not that this list would know that

Could be too, I just got a bit worried after he got to his feet he went down on his knees again. He seems ok now though.

    FROZEN by Whispering Jack

    Who would have thought?    Collingwood had a depleted side with several star players out injured, Max Gawn was in stellar form, Christian Petracca at the top of his game and Simon Goodwin was about to pull off a masterstroke in setting Alex Neal-Bullen onto him to do a fantastic job in subduing the Magpies' best player. Goody had his charges primed to respond robustly to the challenge of turning around their disappointing performance against Fremantle in Alice Springs. And if not that, t

    TURNAROUND by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons won their first game at home this year in the traditional King’s Birthday Weekend clash with Collingwood VFL on Sunday in a dramatic turnaround on recent form that breathed new life into the beleaguered club’s season. The Demons led from the start to record a 52-point victory. It was their highest score and biggest winning margin by far for the 2024 season. Under cloudy but calm conditions for Casey Fields, the home side, wearing the old Springvale guernsey as a mark of res

    POSTGAME: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    Once again inaccuracy and inefficiency going inside 50 rears it's ugly head as the Demons suffered their second loss on the trot and their fourth loss in five games as they go down to the Pies by 38 points on Kings Birthday at the MCG.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    It's Game Day and the Demons are once again faced with a classic 8 point game against a traditional rival on King's Birthday at the MCG. A famous victory will see them reclaim a place in the Top 8 whereas a loss will be another blow for their finals credentials.

    BOILED LOLLIES by The Oracle

    In the space of a month Melbourne has gone from chocolates to boiled lollies in terms of its standing as a candidate for the AFL premiership.  The club faces its moment of truth against a badly bruised up Collingwood at the MCG. A win will give it some respite but even then, it won’t be regarded particularly well being against an opponent carrying the burden of an injured playing list. A loss would be a disaster. The Demons have gone from a six/two win/loss ratio and a strong percentag

    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
