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

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!

Rehabbing: Great to see Kentfield back (much slimmer), walking with Tholstrup, TMac (suspect just a management thing), Viney (still being cautious with that rib cartilage?), Melksham (

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the scorching morning heat to bring you the following observations of Wednesday's preseason training session from Gosch's Paddock. HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today. Firstly the bad news - McVee went down late, which does look like a bad hammy - towards the end of match sim, as he kicked the ball. Had to

    Demonland Trackwatcher Gator ventured down the freeway to bring you his observations from Friday morning's Match Simulation out at Casey Fields. Rehab: Jake Lever and Charlie Spargo running laps.  Lever was running short distances at a fast click as well as having kick to kick with a trainer. He seems unimpeded. Christian Petracca, Kade Chandler, Shane McAdam and Tom Fullarton doing non-contact kicking and handball drills on the adjacent oval.  All moving freely at pace.  I didn’

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
