Every game this year we have only played 3 quarters. And conceded 5+ goals in the poor quarter. Coaching or players?

Cant Belive it thats 2 weeks in a row we throw away a lead!

Understand No Ruck but no leadership at all 

How much cam 50+ years of following this underachieving footy club? 

every era  we say don't  blame them for past failings yet we supporters get the same crappy results, rollover when its all too hard

This, 2 men down or not, is simply inexcusable.

Maybe Goody needs to look at how his structures are going?

Questions need to be raised with the FD. It isn't just one guy who selects the team.

Jones is a soldier

not a General. Never has been. 

He is tough, but his kicking has always been suspect.

If you're beating up a team whose played 2 quarters of footy 2 men down and are going to get done by a couple of goals you can [censored] off and support someone else.

Some of you guys are deadset flogs.

How many teams win games 2 men down in the modern game? Nothing anyone could have done about that.

 

The problem wasn't the 2 men down, the problem was the first half where we absolutely smashed them from here to hell and were only a couple of goals up.

Spencer going down was another kick in the balls, but doesnt excuse the lack of poise or leadership or fight.

Another game that we had and let go. Three weeks in a row.

 

Make all the excuses you want, season is slipping away at a rapid rate now.

Some of our so called  best players are just horrible with their decision making and disposal generally and get caught far to often standing flat footed (Hogan included). It's a very slow and combersum mid field, Clarry and Tracc excluded (when in there) heart. It's not beating up it just is what it is. We are a bunch of hard working potatoes with some pretty good outside talent and an outstanding Clarry on the inside with a bit of Jeffy up forward. Our mid field failed to see out the match again. Good teams find a way to win under adversity, we don't,

I  am concerned.

3rd week in a row we were in a winning position and we can't seal the deal.

For those who have been talking about 'who will be a part of our future', I hope you have paid the price for that type of thinking. We need to win games NOW. Nothing is guaranteed as our present shows us.

Hahaha some of our supporters are pathetic,you give us ruckman and we win that game, we lost 2 forwards straight away, hogan was up against it.  

Always excuses. How about just gritting the teeth and getting on with the job.

38 points to 2 says it all. We still have no idea how to tough it out.

    REDEEM by Meggs

    How will Mick Stinear and his dwindling list of fit and available Demons respond to last week’s 65-point capitulation to the Bombers, the team’s biggest loss in history?   As a minimum he will expect genuine effort from all of his players when Melbourne takes on the GWS Giants at Ikon Park this Thursday.  Happily, the ground remains a favourite Melbourne venue of players and spectators alike and will provide an opportunity for the Demons to redeem themselves. Injuries to star play

    EASYBEATS by Meggs

    A beautiful sunny Friday afternoon, with a light breeze and a strong Windy Hill crowd set the scene, inviting one team to seize the day and take the important four points on offer. For the Demons it was not a good Friday, easily beaten by an all-time largest losing margin of 65 points.   Essendon threw themselves into action today, winning most of the contests and had three early goals with Daria Bannister on fire.  In contrast the Demons were dropping marks, hesitant in close and comm

    DEFUSE THE BOMBERS by Meggs

    Last Saturday’s crushing loss to Fremantle, after being three goals ahead at three quarter time, should be motivation enough to bounce back for this very winnable Round 5 clash at Windy Hill. A first-time venue for the Melbourne AFLW team, this should be a familiar suburban, windy, footy environment for the players.   Essendon were brave and competitive last week against ladder leader Adelaide at Sturt’s home ground. A familiar name, Maddison Gay, was the Bombers best player with

    BLOW THE SIREN by Meggs

    Fremantle hosted the Demons on a sunny 20-degree Saturdayafternoon winning the toss and electing to defend in the first quarter against the 3-goal breeze favouring the Parry Street end. There was method here, as this would give the comeback queens, the Dockers, last use of the breeze. The Melbourne Coach had promised an improved performance, and we did start better than previous weeks, winning the ball out of the middle, using the breeze advantage and connecting to the forwards.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out

    GOOD MORNING by Meggs

    If you are driving or training it to Cranbourne on Saturday, don’t forget to set your alarm clock. The Melbourne Demons play the reigning premiers Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields this Saturday, with the bounce of the ball at 11:05am.  Yes, that’s AM.   The AFLW fixture shows deference to the AFL men’s finals games.  So, for the men it’s good afternoon and good evening and for the women it’s good morning.     The Lions were wounded last week by 44 points, their highest ever los
