    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.

    • PREGAME: Sydney

      Just a game and percentage outside the Top 8, the Demons return to Melbourne to face the Sydney Swans at the MCG, with a golden opportunity to build on the momentum from toppling the reigning premiers on their own turf. Who comes in, and who makes way?

      The Demons pulled off an absolute miracle at the Gabba coming from 24 points down in the 2nd Quarter to overrun the reigning premiers the Brisbane Lions winning by 11 points and keeping their season well and truly alive.

    • GAMEDAY: Brisbane

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons are back on the road with a massive challenge ahead — facing the reigning premiers, the Brisbane Lions, at their Gabba fortress. The Lions are licking their wounds after a shock draw in Tasmania last week, while Melbourne’s season hangs in the balance. Can the Dees defy the odds and pull off a miracle to keep their razor thin finals hopes alive?

    • NON-MFC: Round 10

      The Sir Doug Nicholls Round kicks off in Darwin with a Top 4 clash between the Suns and the Hawks. On Friday night the Swans will be seeking to rebound from a challenging start to the season, while the Blues have the Top 8 in their sights after their sluggish start. Saturdays matches kick off with a blockbuster between the Collingwood and Kuwarna with the Magpies looking to maintain their strong form and the Crows aiming to make a statement on the road. The Power face a difficult task to revive their season against a resilient Cats side looking to make amends for their narrow loss last week. The Giants aim to reinforce their top-eight status, while the Dockers will be looking to break the travel hoodoo. The sole Saturday game is a critical matchup for both teams, as the Bulldogs strive to cemet their spot in the top six and the Bombers desperately want break into the 8. Sundays start with a bottom 3 clash between the Tigers and Kangaroos with both teams wanting to avoid the being in wooden spoon contention. The Round concludes with the Eagles still searching for their first win of the season, while the Saints look to keep their finals hopes alive with a crucial away victory. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?
