This club is [censored]. How the [censored] did we stuff that up?! 5 goals up in the last quarter and let them kick 8 goals in a quarter after restricted them to 8 for the whole match prior to that point!

When will we get some decent onfield leaders?! Why were our leaders not spreading the word to slow it down and ice it in the last 5 minutes?! The same mistakes for decades, nothing has changed. We may even finish with a worse record than last year and wind up going backwards. Unbelievable. 

Get [censored].

 
 

2 lost games these [censored]. Both decided by kicks after the siren. [censored].

You don’t know what you’re talking about, we lost because Hibberd and Lever are out and Goodwin didn’t move OMac earlier, plus the umps were [censored] pathetic as per usual 

Okie dokes! So we won't win one more game as long as lever and hibberd are out! Got it! Ooh ooooh and as long as umpires are umpiring !!! May as well [censored] off up to the hoo harrr eh!


This loss as well as the Port loss are reasons why we won't make finals. You just need to win them. Understand momentum. Take the sting out of the game well before the last 5 minutes. Do it at 8-9 minutes left. Understand momentum players, bloody frustrating.

Apart from the result that was the best game of the season by a mile.

Hocking and Dill should leave the game alone.

No offence but don't think many Melb supporters are worried about state if the game right now. ?

That was it. [censored] forget finals. We're not in finals this year, so start booking your September holidays. Not dumb enough to get my hopes up like last year because we're so predictably shithouse in our ability to totally blow up fan expectations when all signs point towards success. 

[censored] this club and [censored] Goodwin. 4 losses under ten points. 3 losses under a goal. That's NOT acceptable and that is on Goodwin's head. Enough of the apologetic [censored], this is entirely on the club. [censored] them.

Unsure what everyone is ashamed of? 

They had a brain fart for the last 20 seconds. 

If you think they aren’t improving you are delusional. 

I am gutted we lost but a lack of effort is inexcusable and you could not doubt that.

the journey is a long and winding road.

The brain fade happened when petracca marked with 90 seconds to go not 20.

There were a lot of reasons why we lost but I think that if Michael Hibberd had not injured his quad in the last moments of training during the week, we would have won and won well.

The min he's called as injured...I thought this game a very hard win...as Oscar, improved as he is would get opened up. I said that. It happened. It's not his fault.

Particular players need to make better decisions; kicking to advantage is not the forte of some. Kicking anyway intelligently is beyond a couple ?

I didn't think we'd win tonight before the game. I'm very annoyed we haven't...but only because we ought to have taken the choccies.

Some poor ideas re set up...that aside it was as much poor decisions by some ( those in 'white' esp ) 

Geelong took better advantage of their opportunities in the last... We dikked around a bit.

It was actually a very finals type game. We lost.

Bring on 19... we're done here

Edited by beelzebub

absolutely gutted, can't believe we could choke that hard considering the dominance we showed in the third quarter, borderline tears on the couch after the final kick, we were the better team all day and deserved to win. I can't believe they continue to disappoint their fans after everything we have been through. next week......

What a pissweak defensive effort. Hang your heads in shame. 

That is it. We cannot defend. 

Who cares if we have a % of 115 if we only have 11 wins

it is pathetic

Once again. We should have won that game by at least 4 goals

 

Not impressed with Goodwin thus far

I am absolutely [censored] done with this. How much crueler does it have to get? How much lower to the pits of despair do we have to plunder? The best thing this club has taught me is to never be content with any lead. You lead my 23 points going into the last quarter? Doesn't matter, treat it like its level and try to kick the first goal, then try to kick the next goal, and the goal after that and the goal after that. That is the only way I know how to follow this football club. There is never any room for 'comfort'. You can't be 23 points up and be content when the opposition kicks a goal. No, there is never any God damn room for comfort with this club ever until the friggin full time siren goes and even then you have to hope some a'se wipe didn't take a mark. Seriously, how much more of this dog excrement bullcrap do we have to put up with? I was told repeatedly after Round 23 in 2017 that it would 'burn in the bellies' of these young men. Where the hell was that in the last minute? I don't want to hear any more stupid stories about no pain no gain and 'this is the loss they need to become better' seriously pull the other one. This football club has had enough of those losses and lessons to last a lifetime, it is time for some darn action. 

At half time in the game day thread I wrote that it had a feel about it similar to many of those games that we had the edge in and lost. The port game. I even referenced a game from [censored] 16 years ago where Farmer killed us on the siren at Subi. Seriously enough is enough. I and many others are completely at their wits end with this kind of thing happening over and over again. It's been 12 years and this Mt Everest of a task that teams seemingly make year after year of making the finals is getting beyond a joke.

Melbourne, you will always find the way won't you? You won't snatch it from St Kilda but you'll always find the way when it matters most. I haven't given up hope. Mate, when you're out of it for 12 years you'll take what chance you can get buf I can not back this team to deliver the goods when it counts.

I am sorry, I know a lot of you have other things in life aside from football like your families and partners. I'm in my early 30s, single and put a lot of my energy into this football club. It really damn hurts just that bit more when you feel you have little else. Criticise me if you want I don't give a toss right now.

Personally I thought Petracca taking a mark then slowing it down only to kick it 40 metres 60 metres in the air to a contest lost us the game. However he’ll learn plenty from that. No Viney hurts. 

Fn oats it did could have wiped off a minute before they manned up.

  • CASEY: Geelong

    There was a time in the second quarter of the game at the Cattery on Friday afternoon when the Casey Demons threatened to take the game apart against the Cats. The Demons had been well on top early but were struggling to convert their ascendancy over the ground until Tom Fullarton’s burst of three goals in the space of eight minutes on the way to a five goal haul and his best game for the club since arriving from Brisbane at the end of 2023. He was leading, marking and otherwise giving his opponents a merry dance as Casey grabbed a three goal lead in the blink of an eye. Fullarton has now kicked ten goals in Casey’s three matches and, with Melbourne’s forward conversion woes, he is definitely in with a chance to get his first game with the club in next week’s Gather Round in Adelaide. Despite the tall forward’s efforts - he finished with 19 disposals and eight marks and had four hit outs as back up to Will Verrall in the second half - it wasn’t enough as Geelong reigned in the lead through persistent attacks and eventually clawed their way to the lead early in the last and held it till they achieved the end aim of victory.

  • REPORT: Geelong

    I was disappointed to hear Goody say at his post match presser after the team’s 39 point defeat against Geelong that "we're getting high quality entry, just poor execution" because Melbourne’s problems extend far beyond that after its 0 - 4 start to the 2025 football season. There are clearly problems with poor execution, some of which were evident well before the current season and were in play when the Demons met the Cats in early May last year and beat them in a near top-of-the-table clash that saw both sides sitting comfortably in the top four after round eight. Since that game, the Demons’ performances have been positively Third World with only five wins in 19 games with a no longer majestic midfield and a dysfunctional forward line that has become too easy for opposing coaches to counter. This is an area of their game that is currently being played out as if they were all completely panic-stricken.

  • PREGAME: Essendon

    Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

  • NON-MFC: Round 04

    Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?
