Garbage. We have given up which is the most disappointing thing. Gonna quickly lose a lot of % if we aren’t careful.

Needed to change the set up on ball ups. Max should be trying to belt it forward to set up an even contest,  instead little tap down and they clear and spread.

No pace. 

Crap disposal.

 

 

Reality check I'm afraid. Big time.

    The last 6 weeks means nothing. The media has pumped us up this week and we fall for it as usual. Players probably think they’ve done enough. Just a middle of the road side unfortunately, we’ve been conned again!!

     

    Overrated, Adelaide are rubbish so haven't beaten anyone good, got some work to do... Lever missed more than we let on.

    Jones is pathetic when teams are on top of us. Once, just fucken once would be nice for him to stand up

    Every time we have our hopes up, they let us down. It’s true that We haven’t beaten anyone.

    Just disappointing thinking of what might have been

    Very very poor.

    Collingwood have wanted this so much more. 

    Sometimes I wonder if the players believe everything they say. They waffled on about being hurt last year while paying no respect to Collingwood. They were outplayed last year and have been outplayed again.

    BTW Tim Lane...

    Ram your snow jokes up your arze.

    Clear mark to Fritta not paid. Maggots.

    Out Vince. In Baker

    Out Smith. In Petty

    Out Lewis. In Hunt

    Really disappointing. Huge crowd, big TV audience and this is what we dish up. Really could have shown people today that we were the real deal and not flag track bullies. 


    False dawns. Sick of em.

    Collingwood could win the flag on today's performance 

    And we could be bottom four. 

     

    Wow. They really are making us look bad. Apart from T-Mac, do we have any winners?

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      There was a time during the current Melbourne cycle that goes back to before the premiership when the club was the toughest to beat in the fourth quarter. The Demons were not only hard to beat at any time but it was virtually impossible to get the better them when scores were close at three quarter time. It was only three or four years ago but they were fit, strong and resilient in body and mind. Sadly, those days are over. This has been the case since the club fell off its pedestal about 12 months ago after it beat Geelong and then lost to Carlton. In both instances, Melbourne put together strong, stirring final quarters, one that resulted in victory, the other, in defeat. Since then, the drop off has been dramatic to the point where it can neither pull off victory in close matches, nor can it even go down in defeat  gallantly.

    • CASEY: Footscray

      At twenty-four minutes into the third term of the game between the Casey Demons and Footscray VFL at Whitten Oval, the visitors were coasting. They were winning all over the ground, had the ascendancy in the ruck battles and held a 26 point lead on a day perfect for football. What could go wrong? Everything. The Bulldogs moved into overdrive in the last five minutes of the term and booted three straight goals to reduce the margin to a highly retrievable eight points at the last break. Bouyed by that effort, their confidence was on a high level during the interval and they ran all over the despondent Demons and kicked another five goals to lead by a comfortable margin of four goals deep into the final term before Paddy Cross kicked a couple of too late goals for a despondent Casey. A testament to their lack of pressure in the latter stages of the game was the fact that Footscray’s last ten scoring shots were nine goals and one rushed behind. Things might have been different for the Demons who went into the game after last week’s bye with 12 AFL listed players. Blake Howes was held over for the AFL game but two others, Jack Billings and Taj Woewodin (not officially listed as injured) were also missing and they could have been handy at the end. Another mystery of the current VFL system.

    • PREGAME: Brisbane

      The Demons head back out on the road in Round 10 when they travel to Queensland to take on the reigning Premiers and the top of the table Lions who look very formidable. Can the Dees cause a massive upset? Who comes in and who goes out?

      Wayward kicking for goal, dump kicks inside 50 and some baffling umpiring all contributed to the Dees not getting out to an an early lead that may have impacted the result. At the end of the day the Demons were just not good enough and let the Hawks run away with their first win against the Demons in 7 years.
