GAME DAY - Round 4, 2017

Featured Replies

So so Melbourne - this is part of who we are unfortunately. Nothing's changed.

 

Hows that not 50 to Watts?

 

3 behinds, pathetic. We have Richmond essendon Adelaide & hawthorn the next 4 wks. This is a must win. I can't see it happening. 

 

Bottom 4 team just kicked 8 goals in a row on us. Just let that sink in.

Paul Roos 3 years of work undone in a quarter.

Just abysmal. 0.3 to 7.4.

We look slow, our positioning and skill execution is hopeless.

Take that Watts shot at goal from the boundary. Low percentage option.  How about we construct a set shot from 30 metres out in the corridor.


What's going on with Viney. He's letting Neale just run passed him constantly. 

He looks absolutely spent. 

Mmm could really use Hogan and Lewis

 

Could have gone away this weekend, instead I am watching a game of football. 

7.4 to 0.3.

Won't even enjoy if we win now.


Absolutely disgusting effort today. The players should have to forfeit their pay for the day. They simply haven't earnt it. We're losing to a bottom 4 team that's flown half way across the country to play. Absolutely pathetic effort. Even if we get up and win from here they shouldn't be [censored] ashamed of themselves!

Pathetic 

This club will never learn.

Viney needs a run in the 2s

Typical weak pathetic shite Melbourne.

We are a perennial shite club and showing every bit of it today. Why I bother spending 8 hours travelling to amd from the ground to continually baffles me. We just stink it up continually. 

Jack Viney is a complete liability his year. He can't even stick a tackle anymore let alone get a clean disposal. I'd make a statement and drop him.


Lack of ruthlessness when five goals ahead. Freo midfield is seriously good and has exposed ours as pretenders.

Tag Jones and gang tackle Oliver and we have nothing. Tyson and Viney are limited players.

No leadership out there. I hope Viney is injured because I tell you what, he has totally given up today.

My three memberships are going back to the club. That was the final straw, I'm done with this club. 

We have been exposed. Such a great start to the year but we are back to the club that unfortunately too many of us remember.

How important was it to build on last years wins. I have a feeling we will finish 10th. 

It is depressing... I wish I could change teams. Oh to have that winning feeling and be happy in life. 

Wow. What an insipid quarter of footy.

Watching Jack Viney get brushed aside like Cale Morton probably the most confusing part.

Let's see a good response.


This might blow out. Looking at them in the huddle...they *look* defeated.

You really couldn't pick a more Melbourne game.

We can still win.

If Goodwin can coach we will not let them touch it.

Im told we are just practising our strategy when coming from behind.

Have no fear.

For those of you gloating about the margins etc I worry about the delusion .

We are a young,flaky,confidence team.

 

Zero chance we win this and it just cost us 40,000 members Goodwin just got schooled 

Never have i seen a player panick so much when he has the footy in his hands.

  • PREVIEW: Carlton

    Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.

  • REPORT: North Melbourne

    I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

  • CASEY: Werribee

    The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

  • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

    The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
