Looked slow and flat all day. As usual, any game with pressure and decent opposition we squib. 

God knows why Oscar doesn’t play in front, has me baffled. Weak as [censored] this club.

[censored] this. Coast to coast [censored] with 10 seconds to go. Back to the old garbage from this team. I’m going back to bed. Annoyed that I got up so early to watch this [censored].

6.2 to our 4.3 that quarter.

Very disappointing. 

Lewis has been awful. Doesn't earn his paycheck against good opposition.

We still can't play the MCG.

Without Jetta Hibberd and Salem, this would be a 70 point loss. Which it might still be.

This smells like the Hawthorn game all over again.

Yep, we've been found out a little today and I can't see us coming back from here.

We've looked a little flat, as if the last few weeks have taken it out of us a little.  Too many players down and not enough gut running.  The last few minutes summed up the day - we went inside 50 4 times for nothing, then they run it out with ease and kick a goal.  It's what was happening to us earlier in the season and it's happening here again today.

I don't see us winning this game but we've got another 30 minutes to make a response.

Collingwood have played the game very well. We had no answer. Reality check time, we're a good side but have a bit of a way to go.

another insipid, gutless lazy effort when it counts. too many easy goals from Collingwood as our players fail to man up, chase, tackle, they obviously came out again as they often do thinking all they have to do is turn up to win.

Feel for Daniher to serve up this on such a big occasion.

Harsh on Lewis.  I don't think he's been that bad.  At least he's gotten his hands on the ball a little, unlike many others.

Hard to see us pinching this one now. That last goal was the one we didn't need.

Will be interesting to see what happens going forward now, have a few players been found out when the pressure is really on?

Can’t stand it that that spud Cox has kicked 4 goals.

I would cancel the bye break. It will take a week to get some of these blokes to run when they don't have the ball. Lazy as hell.

Lewis and Vince need to go. Bring in young blood Baker and Balic. Obviously there leadership isn’t adding [censored] anymore

Again I have to question Goodwin. Whenever the pressure has been on he has had no answers what so ever. Is it just our team not being good enough, or can some blame fall on Goodwin. We have been outplayed since the first bounce in every part of the ground.

They set up too well

Crunbing our bombs forward then gut running

Hope we can learn

 

ps. Who is the game day wuzzard in the box mentioned in another thread?

Disgusted by the lack of intensity in the midfield and backline today. Very disappointing day for the club to cough up 2nd on the ladder and fall back to the pack.

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo.
