    111 point loss to Geelong in Paul Roos last game.

    They knew they'd win tonight even when 5 goals down in the 4th, why would they respect us?

    This club is [censored]. I feel like we're so horrible we can somehow defy the laws of the universe to find new ways to [censored] up.

    You're forgetting the club sending members finals reminders just before losing to Collingwood last year to miss finals by .5 percent. Tonight's game hurt almost as much. Perhaps more.

    When we needed to dig deep  and get in and under and scrap hard in the last 10 minutes we just couldn't do it. We are mentally frail and when you are 29 points in the last and doing it easy enough after working hard for 3 quarters and winning the quarters you should be in a winning position. We couldn't wipe the smirk off Scotts face. I am guttered and it is mentally scarring myself as well. I am sure it is hurting many of us. I hope for %$@# sake we click and decide that we have to beat the these teams around us to be a better team..........

    I said enough l have had enough however l didn't think l would take this as hard from a loss. Well l did . I am shattered.

    The players panicked. As usual.

    I think the coach panicked myself. He has no idea about defending

    as i said in another thread. Who gives a flying F if we have 115% for only 11 wins

    Flat track bullies. When things are good, everything’s groovy. The moment an ounce of pressure is applied we go to water (on field and in the box)

    Chokers ...effing chokers!  Yes they kill their supporters,  there’s nothing more to be said.

    I’m not angry, i’m just astounded how this club continues to find new ways to disappoint us.

    How a team can give up a 5 goal lead, after kicking 5 straight goals to establish such momentum, and lose is inexcusable.

    What could Simon Goodwin possibly say in his Press Conference. 

    All the blame lay fairly and squarely at his feet. He such a stubborn bastard in terms of his tactical nouse eg killing a game or nullifying a player when hot eg Hawkins.

    He either doesnt know how to implement such tactics or he is such a stubborn, stupid, moronic Manager of Men.

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

    • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

      The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Collingwood

      Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.
