We should learn from past mistakes IMO Petracca is like a few we have had shows  brilliance against poorer sides but not up to it against good sides. Use him as a trade to get a good player who gives every week. Before we have another Watts situation.

Stupid, Petracca is way better than Watts, he’s gonna be a 200+ game player for Demons

We must have lost by 20 goals!!

They were all hopeless according to Joeboy!

Worse.  We did everything we could possibly think of to hand them the game and still only lost by nine points.  The entire team were diabolical and they still almost fluked the win.  They actually WORKED at losing.  The put effort into it.

Season ending loss

Another wasted year

Out coached again

Flat track bullies

Mediocrity prevails again

Continue to disappoint

Down hill skiers

Poor decision making

Aren’t good enough

Wayward kicking again

Athletes, NOT footballers

Lack genuine desire

Start planning 2019

New coaches required

We lack leadership

 

 

To the tune of Ob-la-Di-la-da!

’the AFL has a basketcase

got Jackson in to lend a hand

he got Roos and we began to sing and Bartlett came in to manage the band.

goodys a good coach when we win

bur doesn’t seem to have a good plan B

we all pull our hair out and whinge and moan

Demanding someone on the ground to lead

So at the end of such a day - 

sing ob-la-DEE-la-da (hopefully we win the next two!)

We have beaten no one of any consequence .

Does that not tell you there is a serious problem with the average level of talent ? 

That argument is tripe.  If we were blown-off-the-park by top 8 sides, then I would join in the SEN chorus.  Fact is we have lost to Geelong twice, Port, Sydney in the last minute, despite dominating I50 and/or scoring shots.  Without McDonald, we pushed Richmond for 3 quarters.

 

I am thinking beyond scoreboard.  Time for our supporters to try it too.

 

There aint much wrong with what we are doing, and ladder improvement is rarely linear.

Petracca IS a no show when needed against class. A la yesterday running into open goal in first couple of minutes and overthinking/panicking/wrong option....... Take your pick. Against the Suns he was great but so he should have been.

20 possessions yesterday and 5 critical errors. Huge potential?  

Really? He has the most work to do for 2019 which will be a make or break season for him.

There is one fact you keep ignoring we are not good enough to beat better sides we have lost everyone. Lost get it not good enough to win. As for not doing much wrong who was the rocket scientist who thought playing Hunt was a good idea? He has been poor all year played most of it at Casey, then an extended period injured then one average game at Casey and Inspite of the coach saying it is too early and is picked. That turned out well. We are doing lots wrong or we would be winning.

It tells me a few things...

We can't cover the loss of serious high end talent...Lever, Hibberd.

We are also trying to cover the loss of another couple for handy players in Viney and Melksham.

Our match winners are still too inexperienced against the best teams.

As far as talent goes we are not a complete list and need to invest in another class mid, defender and serious small forward. Also need proper back up for Max, he's had to carry way too much load this season and needs a break that we can't afford to give him.

There you go, without trying too hard you've mentioned another reason.

Selection has been an issue all season.

I also think you are being a bit harsh on Petracca...I don't think he will be the superstar many had hoped for but his is a good contributor and streets ahead of serious underachievers like Watts and Silvia.

We will agree to disagree on Petracca, grossly overrated IMO. It is going to be a interesting October when the new CEO takes over. He has no commitment to anyone in the FD. I reckon there are going to be a number of changes.

I hope he stays well away from that area 'old dee'...

We know that's a recipe for disaster.

Well as you said our selections this year have left room for considerable improvement. How do we play a guy like JKH for weeks when he is clearly not up to AFL level. I am no fan of Bugg but he is clearly better value than JKH.

Hope so. This lot a chummy little group who've been left to there own devices. The FD isn't too of the heap.

I'm not advocating the CEO run footy...but happy for him to seriously review its capabilities.

Hate to harp on Harris but he was symbolic of our real nature. An instance comes to mind. Think it the 3rd. The ball in middle to be bounced,He comes off the bench runs to the half back area..... He seemed totally lost , confused...at sea as to what to do...who to pick up etc..

The Ball is bounced Sydney outnumbered us at the contest...JKH still not involved or covering anyone.

That's Melbourne ;)

A young side

Will get better

And missing personnel

Learning the trade

Will get there

Very very soon

Have the patience

Wait and see

You'll be proud.

  • REPORT: Carlton

    I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

  • CASEY: Carlton

    The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

  • POSTGAME: Carlton

    A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
