Frost basher is out. He being far from our worst and at least making a contest. 

Sheesh, some people need their one eye attended to.

There needs to be more intent. Take the first option, back yourself. Theres too much give it to the other guy and let him deal with the problem attitude.

It's really simple.

We have too many players who aren't good enough.

(Also a few who aren't quick enough.)

You mean like Lewis was pilloried for doing last week?

Yep.

Without getting into a discussion of that, the difference here is that we are doing it at stoppages, which is causing our problems.

I just dont understand the lack of intensity or pressure.

 

No excuse.

Haven't had intensity since pre QB and haven't had pressure all year. 

As someone said above this side is running on pure talent (from some) and getting sweet F all from it's coaches.

Frost has the same shortcomings as 3 years ago. Hannan should not have played. JKH deserved a game based on vfl form but won't play again.

haha yes this.  Anyone who thinks Tyson would fix this is definitely on the spectrum. 

Maybe when the AFL decrees that handballs to feet are worth points we'll bring back Tyson.

The trubble is buzzy,  Hannan adds nothing or hasnt so far and we are losing stoppage clearances badly.  I can only assume they are getting half their goals from those and the other from our dumbass turnovers.  T-Mac, Lewis and Frosty the obvious ones.

They have 11 rookies to our 6.  We should spiflicate them!

Dogs have one of the worst 3rd quarter records in the comp.

 

Let see how much we want it...

I’ve only seen the second quarter, but my take is that dogs are getting repeat inside 50s due to poor decisions and kicking. There was a point where it looked like we were breaking the game open but we let them back in and it gave them confidence. 

The game has had a lot of ebs and flows, we need to make the most of the time we’re on top.

Only reason we aren't behind is they haven't converted. Did you watch the Saints game? Its pretty much Verbatim.

I just can’t believe our lack of defensive pressure 

We won’t win at the G with this zone; it leaves too much space open wide on the wings and waiting for transitional ball movement 

Been tha same for over 12 months

Dogs have 11 of their best 22 out apparently. But yes, 1 pt win would do.

We are playing terrible today

Getting close to turning off, yet again.

    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

We'll break down the Match SIM against North Melbourne and wrap up the preseason with insights into training and our latest recruits.

    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. The play start time was brought forward from the initial 11am bounce, due to the high temperatures forecast.  The match sim will consist of four 25-minute qu
