8 in a row to Hawks. Pathetic MFC. Goodwin couldn’t make a change if his life depended on it 

Why was max benched for the 2nd quarter? 

Dumb footballers trying to play dry weather footy.....Just don't get Hawks are playing it simple & long 

Interesting to ask Goodwin why they played the conditions so poorly

Couldn’t happen to a better ducker poppy!


They have a raft of injuries, we should be destroying them.

 
Hawthorn Statistic Melbourne  
143 Kicks 135
91 Handballs 98
234 Disposals 233
1.57 Kick to Handball Ratio 1.38
37 Marks 41
69 Tackles 54

That secret session the boys had last week worked really well. 

That free to Hawthorn happened to three melbourne  players within the previous 2 minutes of play. FFS umpires!

Dave Misson anyone? I'm about to load up here. Goodwin another liability. Deebarcle.

O well at least I can leave early and beat the crowd.

This performance just sucks the life out of the club

So depressing after the great start.

Yet who is surprised? 

 

So much talent but goalless for nearly a half of footy.

We’ve got a coaching issue folks...

And more than you think...not just Simon Badloss ;)

Someone stop me from saying something about Salem that I'll regret.

We are pretenders

Searching for balance on field.

 

Same as why Frawley is playing up deep forward.  More runners in the mid part of the ground.   Applying pressure to the ball holder.

Now THAT'S the real question. !!!???!!!????!!!!

9 goals to zip. 

Hawks also have 2 players down. 

Outstanding effort melb. 

Playing one quarter out of three is a quality effort. 

Ffs melb u never seem to disappoint. 

 

This is the most physically 'worried out of it' performance I have seen in a long time. And against a team with a ton players that don't like the contest. Pathetic and weak. Still the same club.

The problem isn't Goodwin. He has this club competing physically more than anyone else has been able to over the last 10 years...it's just that they still don't like it tough...and when opposition turn on the heat we are waterr.

why is anyone surprised. yet again, supporters with no ability to look at footy in an objective manner lulled in to a false sense of achievement over a couple of half arsed, less than convincing wins over two poor footy teams

  • PREVIEW: Carlton

    Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.

  • REPORT: North Melbourne

    I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

  • CASEY: Werribee

    The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

  • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

    The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
