People are rightly farked-off beyond belief at this Melbourne performance, but Collingwood's pressure and disposal today have been very good.

McDonald forward. Nice to see Simon Goodwin being proactive...

BUt our pressure has been non existant.

Pies have just stepped around our tackles all day.

we are a soft club and have been exposed big time.

There's a sense of history about today - much like it was with the final round of 1987 when many of us travelled to Footscray and watched Melbourne's famous victory. Back then, we depended on Hawthorn

I was there that day as 9 yo Jack.  Still one of my favorite footy memories and pretty hard to beat from that perspective.   What great day of drama. Standing up the back of the hill, up aga

I am somewhat grateful that MFCSS has prepared me for this outcome and shields me from disappointment.

Seriously though the second half of the season has been pedestrian at best

None of them want to play finals. Jones has never been worse. Hibberd and Lewis can't hit targets. Tomald back to being a complete goose of a [censored]. Gawn no longer knows how to ruck, he's a training pad. Tyson is rubbish. Hunt can't grab a simple ball.

Lost to Buckley with his worst side possibly ever. 

Well done  

 

Jamie Elliott on the team sheet always has me worried. Very underrated player and pivotal to their scoring ability.

Another kick under zero pressure straight to black and white jumper as I type this. Unbelievable.

And Pedo coming off the ground lol

All going to script.

I don't care what all you losers think. This season is still not over for us. We have 40 minutes today to show what we've got, and I'll be watching the Adelaide game with great interest.

Could there be anything more "Melbourne" than this?

I don't think I've been as negative as Jaded. Of course I've been negative. Today is a dagger in the heart. I haven't taken potshots at Nathan Jones though like many have.

I think it's ok to ask questions of our captain in such an important game when he has gone totally missing!

Just about done with this footy club.....

Decades of pain apart from some successes which have always unravelled into infighting etc

Though Goody 1st year...he needs to find tougher/stronger leaders  in this team...

I called it 4 weeks ago when we lost to North.

When push comes to shove our leaders are losers. Jones should be offered to the highest bidder.

Something drastic has to happen or the last 3 years have been pointless. 

Whenever the pressure is really applied HARD

Our leaders Fail badly

"Jones played a superb Captain's game against Gold Coast" people tell me

Disgraceful effort today.

For like the millionth game in a row, Melksham kicks another crucial goal. One more and I'd be happy this quarter.

Team continues to fall over at crucial moments...supporters have every right to be [censored] off from another pea hearted effort!

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
