    Whelp, my bottle of Lagavulin is staying unopened this evening.

    Losing is one thing but not trying is another.

    Thanks dees for serving up another season of [censored] on a field.

    Congrats. Hey lewis dont show your mug on tv this week.

     

    Jeez we make football look so complicated 


    Going overseas tomorrow. This has put a whole damper on my holiday

    I'm not blaming the players. They have been given a crap system, that changes from week to week, and which is figured out by good coaches in about 15 minutes.

    I am

    no say it, we will probably agree......

     

    Hindsight is 20-20 but I don't rate him and never have. I don't get that he's consistently in our 22. [censored] me no end. There...I've said it.

    The bomb it in and hope game plan does not work.

    What even more amusing is that he tries a structure of 7 in the forward line, creating further congestion. We are effectively flooding our own forward line.

    The bloke is an absolute Morton.

    can agree. his game last week was great, but the other two? nothing crash hot. he isn't living up to his expectations at all


    Why does anyone actually expect us to put in. I didn’t see us play in the 60s but we have not shown anything for the last 40 years. The players simply don’t care, they never have. They know they will get pats on the back after a few good games and then collect their monthly pay cheque. We supporters have always been happy with a few wins here and there. Never demanded greatness the way he hawks do and get. I’ve said before, we are nothing and stand for nothing.

    Hawthorn is so confident now,  Frawley has gone  forward. That tells you something.

    A disaster - unmitigated disaster. 

    Im calling it - no finals again. I’v not seen an improvement in our team. 

    Same mistakes, same mental frailties.

    do not see us making the eight this year. lost by 3 points to a very unimpressive geelong thus far. beaten brisbane and north (woooo!!!!) and being smashed by hawthorn. 

     

    and wtf goodwin, no wing players in first quarter- sure might work for a quarter but do you really think a genius in clarkson wont figure you out? 


    Im off home. Cant watch another second of that drivel. Could of spent it with my little girl, but against better judgment showed up.

     

    Hope i never see Bugg again. Harmes is close behind. Lever wont be dropped as he is the golden boy but deserves too. 5 or so others that were average at BEST today.

    Refusal or inability to adapt is a massive issue for us.

    What are the odds we go the whole quarter without a goal? 0 from 3 quarters?

    Now that i've posted that we'd be a shoe in to kick one surely?

     

    Anyone else ashamed to be a dees supporter today?

    Harmes can join Bugg in the VFL

    • NON-MFC: Round 06

      The Easter Round kicks off in style with a Thursday night showdown between Brisbane and Collingwood, as both sides look to solidify their spots inside the Top 4 early in the season. Good Friday brings a double-header, with Carlton out to claim consecutive wins when they face the struggling Kangaroos, while later that night the Eagles host the Bombers in Perth, still chasing their first victory of the year. Saturday features another marquee clash as the resurgent Crows look to rebound from back-to-back losses against a formidable GWS outfit. That evening, all eyes will be on Marvel Stadium where Damien Hardwick returns to face his old side—the Tigers—coaching the Suns at a ground he's never hidden his disdain for. Sunday offers two crucial contests where the prize is keeping touch with the Top 8. First, Sydney and Port Adelaide go head-to-head, followed by a fierce battle between the Bulldogs and the Saints. Then, Easter Monday delivers the traditional clash between two bitter rivals, both desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top end of the ladder. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • REPORT: Essendon

      What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.

    • POSTGAME: Essendon

      Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.
