The bald umpire- number 15.

He's on my list.

What made it worst was he was joking and laughing with a north player as they walked off at 3/4 time!! 

Appalling stuff and a terrible look especially after giving them all the 50/50 and soft calls and not giving us any of the obvious ones let alone the 50/50.

We lacked spread first 15 of both halves which cost us the game. We continued to bomb it to no one. Effort at the contest was par but the first point and shocking turnovers (jones) coupled with missed opportunities (Bugg) cost us. Trac, Salem, Clarry, Hunt all had quieter than normal impacts. last week was no more than an incremental improvement rather than a break out moment or false dawn. The rollercoaster continues. Reset and go again. 

And they let this prejudicial little muffin give Brownlow votes

 

We're the catchup footy specialists....who don't quite catch up.

Top game plan btw :rolleyes:

Worst part is ONCE AGAIN riding for an hour home on the train with the hundreds of other dejected demons supporters.

 

Same look, different week.

Weeds is getting game because of his height.

A 195cm wooden post would have more of a physical presence and impact than Weideman. Keep him at Casey for the rest of the year, he is clearly not ready, and gifting him games when he doesn't deserve them won't help his development. Same goes for OMAC.

I'm so sick of this sh!t. I'm so sick and tired of Goodwin's post match interviews of 'it's not the type of footy we want to play'. It's getting predictable. You're the bloody coach!! You have a whole week to get your team to try. That's all..try! If the players aren't buying into Goodwin then he needs to go. Simple as that. I don't care how early it is or as good as our win against adelaide was. We're not consistently trying! Pathetic.

Also for fellow demonlanders, you guys were calling for Hannan's head but clearly you don't know anything about footy. He needed a string of games to feel at home on an afl ground and this performance was always coming. He played a good game today and would've lost by more without him. 
 

Now for the umpires. Disgusting. That lack of 50m against Bugg was pathetic. Yes, Bugg should've kicked it anyway but it was an absolute buzz kill. I'd like there to be a review into that decision and whichever umpire was in the prxominity to be sent back to country footy until they understand what a 50m penalty is set up for.

Petracca, terrible!! fumble fingers and kicking is sh!t. How long does it take for him to build a tank and play as a midfielder. He shanked the ball so much today. disgusting.  Get some bloody awareness and stop getting chased down from behind. My God!

Oscar McDonald. I seriously can't put up with this guys sh!t for 10 more years. I've already gone through Tom Mcdonalds lack of awareness, disposal and lack of basic human IQ for many years, how can I go through another 10!!!

The club has physio's, specialised coach, psychologists, doctors, motivational speakers etc. at their disposal all week and they put up cr@p like that in the 1st quarter. disgrace. I want to say we 'should be near the top of the ladder' with all of our close losses but what's the point of making finals if we don't even try. These guys get paid to shank the ball for 2 hours and play one-way football. I can't take another calm Goodwin presser.

Season is over.

I hope the MFC lodge a please explain about this bias [censored].

Bugg was actually very good today.

Frost was terrible- then awesome.

Jones was immense.

We were too short and couldn't get a free kick.

Kent wasn't great.

Weeds is getting game because of his height.

How can you come to this conclusion?

I can recall 6 attempts at goal for a return of 4 behinds. He was horrific.

Well,
We've gone from being the worst team to follow, to the most frustrating team to follow over the last year and a bit. I guess that's better, but it doesn't make me feel better this season. At the very least we're keeping our percentage nice, in case it clicks later in the year.


OUT: O'Mac & (maybe) Kent
IN: Not sure for O'Mac, Ben K for Kent?


I'd like more changes, but I don't quite see where they will come from right now, and I'm talking KP players.
 


From possible 6th to 11th. Can't wait to see us do everything possible to lose to GC next week.

Never will. Club weak as pizz at EVER asking anything. Mrp comes to mind etc 

Another wasted opportunity!

Most of the team is still in Adelaide!

Most of team were still thinking of their best win last week!

Another deflating Sunday to ponder what could have been, Nth,Hawks,Freo,Tigers.....

Definite Mental Toughness issues!!!!!

The point being he had those chances. Screwed them up, absolutely. But if he hadn't he would have been the second coming on this board.

Looks injured?

Might be, but was back to his worst.  Id trade him.  Beaten in 1:1 and I don't think he took a contested mark. That's hopeless especially on a day when talls are killing us..

So? 

Cunnington hurt his ankle badly and end up BOG.

Enough with the Watts excuses

Not as bad as Salem getting hauled out of bounds - taken off the ball - only for the free kick to go against him. The club should demand to the AFL that Nicholls doesn't umpire a Melbourne game again. He cheated. Plain and simple, and I never whinge over umpiring. Today was clear bias. It was a game full of terrible decisions. Cost us the game.

Hannan looked fantastic

The statement was he was very good today. He took NONE of his chances, therefore, his game was pathetic.

Went in against one of the premier ruckmen in the competition without a recognised ruckman. Proved the difference.

We will struggle most weeks against the better ruckman. Spencer/Gawn can't come in soon enough 

26 minutes ago, ProDee said:

Not a finals side. 

 

We are a Premiership side with a ruckman... 

would have been 9-0

  • AFLW PREVIEW: St. Kilda

    The Demons return to Casey Fields (aka the Field of Dreams) this Saturday to host the Saints in Round 2. If you’re feeling lucky, head down the Monash for some family-friendly footy—you might even walk away a winner. The first 5,000 adults through the gate will receive an entry into the $10,000 helicopter ball drop. With Casey’s infamous wind, what could possibly go wrong? Closest ball to the pin wins. So spread the word, get down there—and good luck!

  • PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Way back in March we contemplated the possibility of a Demon resurgence after Simon Goodwin’s summer of love. Many issues at the club had seemingly been addressed, key players were returning from injury and a brand new day was about to dawn. We imagined the coach pulling a rabbit out of a hat. The team would roar up the charts, push aside every opponent and make its way to a Grand Final ending in ultimate triumph with Goody and Max holding the premiership cup aloft under a shower of red and blue ticker tape.
