3-5 to 1-2 this quarter.

 

Can someone in the coaching staff PLZ teach Christian Salem how to play midfield. There is no use sitting off the pack. Go in and get the FKN thing.

You'd think a team that just missed finals by the smallest margin ever would realise you're never ever ever allowed to take your foot off your opposition's throat when you think you've won it.

 

Lever has been horrendous this qtr.

We were darn lucky that wasn’t a free kick. But I suppose we got s raw deal, so it’s teat for tat

Surprise, surprise.  The opposition kick a few and get some momentum.  They are an AFL side after all.

Not only that, the umpires are giving them every chance to get back into it.  We go anywhere near them and they're blowing the whistle.

I'm getting sick of this umpire blaming. We are the more experienced team. Umpires are an excuse for the weak. Poor quarter from us, that's it!

Fumble fumble fumble.

To be fair, Goodwin plays him as a second key tall, when in reality he is a third tall drop off defender. Apparently Wagner is of more use than Frost. 

Brown: "Tough conditions up here. Melbourne wouldn't be used to the humidity."

 

We bloody would be if we'd gone to Darwin this year.

Lame excuse. It’s been hot down here

No you said remembering winners, everybody remembers these, we're playing well tonight aren't we, having a few social pale ales and watching on big screen

You bought up a pile of cheats, not me

i have no time for cheating, my comments on the Essendrug disgrace were always rock solid. 

Let’s see how the Premiership Quarter stacks up

jobs not even close to being finished yet

Not our best quarter, but the Lions got their tails up on their home deck and kicked a few.  That's life.

A couple of early goals to kick off the final term and they'll drop their bundle.

Annnnnnnnnnd once again we show how to let a team come back.

Zero leadership from our “leaders” who all panicked and fumbled.

Rocket up the backside Goody, what a shizen quarter of footy.

Any team five goals down against Melbourne is a chance.

The sad thing is, we need the percentage. We have literally not learnt a [censored] thing after last year’s debacle. 

Goodwin has a lot to answer for. He still has not been able to get this team switched on for 4 quarters. 

That we have to play an 8 man defense against Brisbane because they are dominating the game, is actually a joke. 

Ugh. Going to watch the last quarter in bed. My enthusiasm Is really low. Was sitting in the lounge room with munchies and drinks and enjoying the night, now it’s like a late night movie that you have to watch but know you have to be up early the next day. Thank goodness for daylight savings.

The question is, in which quartervwill we totally drop our bundle?

It turns out it was the third quarter.

Dumb free kicks, lazy fumbles, overusing the ball in contested situations and poor skills.

10 goals down*

  • PREVIEW: North Melbourne

    Can you believe it? After a long period of years over which Melbourne has dominated in matches against North Melbourne, the Demons are looking down the barrel at two defeats at the hands of the Kangaroos in the same season. And if that eventuates, it will come hot on the heels of an identical result against the Gold Coast Suns. How have the might fallen? There is a slight difference in that North Melbourne are not yet in the same place as Gold Coast. Like Melbourne, they are currently situated in the lower half of the ladder and though they did achieve a significant upset when the teams met earlier in the season, their subsequent form has been equally unimpressive and inconsistent.

  • REPORT: Adelaide

    The atmosphere at the Melbourne Football Club at the beginning of the season was aspirational following an injury-plagued year in 2024. Coach Simon Goodwin had lofty expectations with the return of key players, the anticipated improvement from a maturing group with a few years of experience under their belts, and some exceptional young talent also joining the ranks. All of that went by the wayside as the team failed to click into action early on. It rallied briefly with a new strategy but has fallen again with five more  consecutive defeats.

  • CASEY: Coburg

    The Casey Demons returned to their home ground which was once a graveyard for opposing teams but they managed to gift the four points on offer to Coburg with yet another of their trademark displays of inaccuracy in front of goals and some undisciplined football that earned the displeasure of the umpires late in the game. The home team was welcomed by a small crowd at Casey Fields and looked right at home as it dominated the first three quarters and led for all bar the last five minutes of the game. In the end, they came away with nothing, despite winning everywhere but on the scoreboard and the free kick count.

  • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

    The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.
