I won’t question Goodwin, because everytime I do, I get smashed from pillar to post. But we lost this game, like many others over the last few years, due to selection and match ups/set ups. 

Gawn bloody good but 

No...please question the 'steering committee " ....i do.

That was a schmozzle...from selection to execution.

A train wreck forseen.

Question him and question him hard. He's shown absolutely nothing as a game day coach or developer of young players. 

 

The only reason we LOST this game was because of bad, bias umpiring.

Lewis, Tyson, Petty and Weideman back to VFL. They were all next to useless today.

Petty and Weideman are our future 

 

Tyson maybe

 

Lewis never again please

Umpiring was appalling, but look at the ladder. We lost this game because we played awful slow footy. 

 

Our "brand" is built around roles.

Can't say either is working too well.

Goodwin must hate Paul Roos. 

He took any bit of defence Roos instilled in us and [censored] it right off. 

Patently obvious that has occurred. It began to look elite twelve months after Roos' departure - experience building. Now, absolute tripe, poor selections, poor development, no genuine aggression or skills. 


- Petty looked like a lost child

- How many time are our forwards going to fly for the same ball?? FFS

Lost this one at selection.

The balance wasn’t right today.

Harry Petty has potential but should have been kept in wraps for a while longer.

Billy Stretch and Sam Frost have been very strong for weeks at Casey and should have been picked. 

 

WJ agrees with me on this issue- Goodwin couldn't pick his nose.

Come on media hit us hard and put the acid on Goodwin!  This club deserves all the tags it wears.  Losing to a bottom team who played with purpose and heart.  We are a club who has no Heart!!!! Goodwin and his rabble of a coaching group should hang their heads in shame.  Another generation of supporters getting killed off by this club.

We need to bring out our own version of this for that 6 game winning streak we had before we fell off a cliff.  Its the closest thing this club will ever have to success.

Petty not ready

Oscar very weak 1 on 1

Viney wasted tagging

McDonald obviously not 100%, agree he should have been rested

Needed one of Stretch, Garlett, Spargo

Obviously our best came in the final qtr. Many lifted in that 30 minutes... the heavy criticism of Jones is unwarranted, J Smith had several important involvements when forward of the centre, clutch goal by Lewis was fantastic, Hogan contributed during last. Gawn, Viney, Hibberd, Harmes, Fritsch our best

Every week is a new challenge, we're not done yet! 


Give Keilty a run, Frost has the experience but Dec has been playing better plus as a mature age recruit whose been at VFL level for 4 years now I don't think he'll look anywhere near as lost as Petty did out there.

How the hell we came to within 2 points I'll never know, good fight back in the last quarter but just horrible.

Weid has had many opportunities but cant perform in the big time. 

Has any club had as many false dawns as Melbourne?

This year is done even if we are still in the 8. We’ve been found out. Just run and run and you’ll win the game against our slow plodders.

Yeah we got that one right huh?  Charlie Curnow anyone?

The MFC has no balls

Norm Smith gelded the club the day he was sacked

NOTHING has changed in 53 years within the soul of this club

Personel come and go, but we remain in the same place

Soft under pressure

As I posted before the game, the umpires had to force the score-evening goals in the first half; they excelled, maintaining these incorrect and unnecessary decisions for the entire game. By half time, I had counted 4 StKilda goals being granted for unwarranted 'infrigements', perhaps the 5th could be included for 'absolute tiggy-touchwood' decision-making as it was getting more dificult to spot the error when it was not there. We are being cheated and this is the 8th time this season that it has occurred - albeit we still won a couple of games in that mix. We cannot allow this to continue - it is too obvious and everyone is scared to comment on it. The Club must initiate the enquiry, not be one referral but frequently, en masse, seriously, as there is now adequate video footage to be used as evidence. 

Well the statistics show that St Kilda did a lot more short kicks than us. Against Port Adelaide we just continually  banged it up to a very crowded full forward and hoped someone marked it. This is how we consistently fail to score against good teams and poor teams for that matter. We just never  beat St Kilda and Hawthorn and …….  Perhaps a team from Darwin could represent us?

Joel Smith to come in and play Lever's role? What a joke.

Frost was the obvious option.

Petty not even near it but lets choose him ahead of Frost!  So Goody.

No crumbing small forward 2 weeks running...still betting eveything on 3 Talls.. joke of the year especially when found out against the Pies and Port (both in the 8).  If that doesn't tell you something then you don't deserve to be coaching any team at AFL level.

 

There are no words..... I’m totally shattered.

You get an idea of an umpires underlying motivation when he pays in the back against Salem after a magnificent chase and tackle (the in the back resulted from the Saint player diving forward well after being pinned legitimately). Similarly last week, Nicholls motivation was laid bare for all to see with the 'blocking' free against Melksham.

  • NON-MFC: Round 07

    Round 7 gets underway in iconic fashion with the traditional ANZAC Day blockbuster. The high-flying Magpies will be looking to solidify their spot atop the ladder, while the Bombers are desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top eight. Later that evening, Fremantle will be out to redeem themselves after a disappointing loss to the Demons, facing a hungry Adelaide side with eyes firmly set on breaking into the top four. Saturday serves up a triple-header of footy action. The Lions will be looking to consolidate their Top 2 spot as they head to Marvel Stadium to clash with the Saints. Over in Adelaide, Port Adelaide will be strong favourites at home against a struggling North Melbourne. The day wraps up with a fiery encounter in Canberra, where the Giants and Bulldogs renew their bitter rivalry. Sunday’s schedule kicks off with the Suns aiming to bounce back from their shock defeat to Richmond, taking on the out of form Swans.Then the Blues will be out to claim a major scalp when they battle the Cats at the MCG. The round finishes with a less-than-thrilling affair between Hawthorn and West Coast at Marvel. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?

  • REPORT: Fremantle

    For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

  • CASEY: UWS Giants

    The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

  • PREGAME: Richmond

    The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?

  • POSTGAME: Fremantle

    A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.
