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 ;)

    REDEEMING by Meggs

    It was such a balmy spring evening for this mid-week BNCA Pink Lady match at our favourite venue Ikon Park between two teams that had not won a game since round one.   After last week’s insipid bombing, the DeeArmy banner correctly deemanded that our players ‘go in hard, go in strong, go in fighting’, and girl they sure did!   The first quarter goals by Alyssa Bannan and Alyssia Pisano were simply stunning, and it was 4 goals to nil by half-time.   Kudos to Mick Stinear.

    REDEEM by Meggs

    How will Mick Stinear and his dwindling list of fit and available Demons respond to last week’s 65-point capitulation to the Bombers, the team’s biggest loss in history?   As a minimum he will expect genuine effort from all of his players when Melbourne takes on the GWS Giants at Ikon Park this Thursday.  Happily, the ground remains a favourite Melbourne venue of players and spectators alike and will provide an opportunity for the Demons to redeem themselves. Injuries to star play

    EASYBEATS by Meggs

    A beautiful sunny Friday afternoon, with a light breeze and a strong Windy Hill crowd set the scene, inviting one team to seize the day and take the important four points on offer. For the Demons it was not a good Friday, easily beaten by an all-time largest losing margin of 65 points.   Essendon threw themselves into action today, winning most of the contests and had three early goals with Daria Bannister on fire.  In contrast the Demons were dropping marks, hesitant in close and comm

    DEFUSE THE BOMBERS by Meggs

    Last Saturday’s crushing loss to Fremantle, after being three goals ahead at three quarter time, should be motivation enough to bounce back for this very winnable Round 5 clash at Windy Hill. A first-time venue for the Melbourne AFLW team, this should be a familiar suburban, windy, footy environment for the players.   Essendon were brave and competitive last week against ladder leader Adelaide at Sturt’s home ground. A familiar name, Maddison Gay, was the Bombers best player with

    BLOW THE SIREN by Meggs

    Fremantle hosted the Demons on a sunny 20-degree Saturdayafternoon winning the toss and electing to defend in the first quarter against the 3-goal breeze favouring the Parry Street end. There was method here, as this would give the comeback queens, the Dockers, last use of the breeze. The Melbourne Coach had promised an improved performance, and we did start better than previous weeks, winning the ball out of the middle, using the breeze advantage and connecting to the forwards.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out
