No excuse. I will say this sort of thing is what I predicted something into the year, based purely on age of players. Not that I don't care. It's brutal. But I'm not slitting my wrists.

Gee, Joeboy we lost by 3 points! Your analysis gives the impression that we had a 100 point loss. Very harsh judging.

Not harsh at all, the players need to grow up and learn fast, if they aint capable then offload Quick! Very fair Joeboy! IMO

"too many handballs"... week 7 repeated.

This is what Goodwin has trained over the pre season. But he queries integrity and our effort. Poor show Goody. Watch the game. It was ineffective circular handballs. Oliver is a great young gun but his disposal needs to improve.

Your Tyson bias is showing a bit 'joeboy', but I guess this is a good wrap from you. I thought he was one of our more consistent contributors today and was involved in as many (I counted 5) goal scoring chains. No clangers & used the ball well.

Not really.  We were diabolical for the first half, played one quarter of real football and then broke almost even in the last.  If we'd played the whole match like the third quarter we'd have given them another 80+ point flogging, and that's really all the Hawks deserve.  They were crap, we were worse.

Gee Bobby ...youre right we did well....wait !! :unsure:

JB isn't 100% but when we're about 50% of what we should be, who's closer the mark ?

That for the most part was crap.

3 points this week will be a 100 next if we play the same.

I always look forward to reading your three-word analysis Joeboy, even if I agree or disagree with the majority of it.

Here are my adaptations, I think you nailed most of it this week.

As for Oliver I completely agree. He is very handball heavy. He's an excellent and very exciting player who I believe has a very nice foot on him also. I hope the club notice this and encourage him to use it more.

Jetta: Good or bad?

I can't work out how to grade Jetta. On the plus side, Puopolo did nothing and Rioli little. But was that Jetta's work? On the other hand, he keeps going up in packs with two or three other Demons attempting to stop their forwards from marking rather than staying down and being ready for when the ball hits the ground.

He is a hard one to grade. But each week he appears to be curbing the influence of the opposition small forwards. So for now, he appears to be doing his job.

Ya see its all perspective...and possibly a one size all feedback wont fit for all of a game.

Here's an example

Jones - Sank us early

Now he did improve, but as captain his game , his clunkers and turnovers cost us dearly. He aided and abetted the enemy for more minutes than is forgivable.

and yet at times he played manfully and with vision.

Its almost as all by him self he epitomises everything thats wrong with Melb Inconsistency.

Jetta seems like our only defender that can get a decent punch on the ball in marking contests. But you are right he should not go up when taller defenders are going for the ball.

Good to see Viney back to form. 

Trending  - Oscar Mac, Frost

Flat compared to last week - Salem and Petracca

Negative watch - JKH, Bugg

We need a win as reward for 4 quarters of footy.

Fair call rjay and joeboy. He did have the odd clanger, not that he was the only offender, in the main these were those searching kicks into the corridor to try to create some of the midfield run which were so missing in the first half. 

82% disposal efficiency on Sunday

Yes but the simple fact is we lost again BM.

There were five players out there that are not AFL level players. 

Fill ins is their best but they will not take us to finals.

JKH, O Mac, Wagner, Bugg and Tyson is a front runner does well in games that others win for us.

    CROSSROADS by The Oracle

    Melbourne stands at the crossroads.  Sunday’s game against the West Coast Eagles who have not met the Demons at the MCG in more than ten years, is a make or break for the club’s finals aspirations.  That proposition is self-evident since every other team the club will be opposed to over the next eight weeks of footy is a prospective 2024 finalist. To add to this perspective is the fact that while the Demons are now in twelfth position on the AFL table, they are only a game and a half b

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi
