GAMEDAY - Round 23


Whispering_Jack

Recommended Posts

Our tackling is just too soft.

This is a soft team IM afraid.

Beaten by a team that has no chance of finals.

Gawn is a huge huge huge disappointment.

Hogan is the unluckiest player ever.

HUnt and Hannan are second rate.

No point thinking about finals if we're going to play like this. We'd get blown out of the water first week. In reality, we haven't played well for 6 weeks or so, and it'll eventually find us out.

Jones who is captain has played one of the worst halves of footy I have seen. This is the most terrible effort that a side playing for a finals berth can put up.

Jones proving he's a perennial loser.

Lewis and Vince cashing their paycheck.

Gawn taking the [censored]. 

Hunt, Hibberd and Brayshaw haven't hit a target between them.

Garlett missing sitters. Entry forward deplorable. 

Importantly, Pies have numbers around the ball and win the important contests. It's less about how we're playing and more about how Collingwood is playing, which is quite good. They trust one another, back each other.

This is a colassal choke by Melbourne, and is a massive indictment on out leaders. There's still too many losers in red and blue.

I can't believe how many people were confident of a win.

I can't think of too many who were confident of a win. Most people were saying that IF we deserve to be a finals team, we should beat Collingwood. Well, we don't…and we won't.

It's a shame that after such a good year we're going to end the season (or best case scenario, go into finals) with such a sour taste in our mouths.

So glad i came to the match... ?

Jesus MFC... where is the passion, the gut running, the intensity. No spread. Nothing.

 

Beyond frustrating.

 

We dont deserve a final.

Have a read of the first three or four pages....  Quite a few

any chance of hitting a bloody target.

Gawn is getting beaten by most ruckmen these days. Time for him to get out of the media and get a bloody kick!

No defensive pressure and kicking has been terrible. especially Brayshaw. lift!!

our season is on the line and we come out flat. how does that happen!

I am gutted ATM. 

Hope they come back and win but really can't see it happening at this stage. 

They can win but your right unlikely. At least get much closer to them to keep some percentage.

Gawn completely innefective

Need to go pedo in the ruck for a bit and play Gawn at FF and keep hogan a CHF. Gawn has been hamstrung by the mysterious rule that for the first time in forever was being paid in the saints game.

we need to complain about the number of ruckmen that jump early and impede Max's ability to contest the ruck contest, today being a great example

Haven't turned up... not all doom and gloom, Collingwood playing at 100% we haven't got going. Once we get going which we will 3rd quarter I can see us getting on a roll. 

This reminds me of the GC game earlier in the year.

Agree with everyone. 

Our leaders are pathetic as always! 

Gawn and Jones stinking it up in the middle. Tom McDonald having a shocker down back. Vince and Lewis their usual ineffective selves. 

And Goodwin watching on doing nothing. I'm sorry but if he can't even motivate his team to have a crack with everything on the line, then what the hell is he even doing out there?

A disgusting display from a team that is soft and gutless and enjoys drinking their own loser bath water.

Pedo's form has gone down and Watts' up. 

Hogan injured and quiet while Garlett playing well

Can't we have all 4 playing well for once?

FMD, no FMY!

What has Jesse done to deserve this?  I had, briefly, thought that the Norm Smith curse had been exorcised but clearly it has not.

    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

    HORE ON FIRE by Meggs

    The 40,000 seat $319 million redeveloped Kardinia Park Stadium was nowhere near capacity last night but the strong, noisy contingent of Melbourne supporters led by the DeeArmy journeyed to Geelong to witness a high-quality battle between two of the best teams in AFLW.   The Cats entered the arena to the blasting sounds of Zombie Nation and made a hot start kicking the first 2 goals. They brought tremendous forward half pressure, and our newly renovated defensive unit looked shaky.

    REMATCH by Meggs

    The Mighty Demons take on the confident Cats this Saturday night at the recently completed $319 million redeveloped GMHBA Stadium, with the bounce of the ball at 7:15pm. Our last game of 2023 was an agonisingly close 5-point semi-final loss to Geelong, and we look forward to Melbourne turning the tables this week. Practice match form was scratchy for both teams with the Demons losing practice matches to Carlton and Port Adelaide, while the Cats beat Collingwood but then lost to Essendo

    WELCOME 2024 by Meggs

    It’s been hard to miss the seismic global momentum happening in Women’s sport of late. The Matildas have been playing to record sell-out crowds across Australia and ‘Mary Fowler is God’ is chalked onto footpaths everywhere. WNBA basketball rookie sensation Caitlin Clark has almost single-handedly elevated her Indiana Fever team to unprecedented viewership, attendances and playoffs in the USA.   Our female Aussie Paris 2024 Olympians won 13 out of Australia’s all-time record 18 gol
