Big Watts fan, but he needs time at Casey. 

Not 100% sure if that's the whole problem. Our goal kickers have been down the last 5 weeks. Forward structure and forward entries have been woeful. 

Troy Chaplin needs to go. Forward structure was better under his predecessor.

I agree about Chaplin. [censored] player, [censored] coach. Beggars belief as to why we got him onboard

It's worth pointing out who is standing up in such a disgusting effort with so much on the line.

Jetta is the first to come to mind who can hold his head up.

Went to the pub to watch the game. Have now left the pub as that was basically the most pathetic quarter - where is our intensity and ferocity? We should have been bashing up on this mob. But instead they're just running rings around us and we look very very ordinary.

Gee what if this rent a team had their other 3 gun forwards in?

I said last week after Norf loss that we wouldnt make finals but I didnt think we just wouldnt care today.

There is something wrong with this team.

Give Petracca a run in the magoos. Do him good. 

It is time for a clean sweep. Trade watts for sure. No questions. Sick of having show pony pretenders around. We all defended him because of all the criticism but the truth is it was all warranted.

Focus now for next year. Book your hollies boys we ain't there in Sep.

 I'm broken.  

I've hung in there all these years and continually paid memberships, travelled to games, even when I need to use annual leave the next day. 

But now I just cant do this anymore. The anger is getting worse watching this game style and the constant choking and lack of leaders. It's ruining my weekends.  

It's been a blast, but I'm done. 

Last week woke me up a bit. I got so angry, and I hated how I felt and behaved. What's the point, really? It's an emotional investment that is far too costly. It ruined my weekend. Where does it all lead to? What's the end goal? Wins make for a great feeling but I can cling on for so long. I'm not attending the final 3 games. If they make finals, I'll jump back on.

We're failing to create forward pressure. Missing Hannan's ability to quickly close down space.

We are as weak as pizz. We are playing mentally weak football.

Could we take Gawn out of the ruck and shark off of Mumford do something different FFS Coaching box

Switching off now, as this club did our season 40 minutes ago.

I will set myself up for more heartbreak again in the near future as I've loved this club ever since the old man surprised me with my first jumper when round at grandads circa '79.

The wait continues.

Driven 7 hours. Put up with enough flatulance from bbo to cause the sea to rise 10m. About to snow at ground. The people seated in front of me don't know a single thing about the game. Only portable toilets and frozen pies.  

And this is what the team puts on!

Arousal levels high after a disappointing loss the week prior?

I'm not surprised.

And I won't be if we win.

The real challenge will always be backing it up. Against St Kilda. Then Brisbane. Then Collingwood. 

 

This post isnt looking quite as profound now is it Steve? Even with the edit lol

:P

GWS are scary good. Imagine when they get their forward line back. They should be odds on favorite to win the premiership. 

We are a long way off from where they are. Will make me feel sick when they hold the cup up. 

 

They've been average at best for the last 2 months, we've made them look good today

Mentally Weak and outcoached, too soft for finals, Viney half fit, Gawn colourblind, no run no spread. 

Gawn one of the only few trying.

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo. The play start time was brought forward from the initial 11am bounce, due to the high temperatures forecast.  The match sim will consist of four 25-minute qu
