If anyone has come to the conclusion that Jordan Lewis is to blame for this then you need some serious psychotropic medication.

Although it is an expedient thing to have a whipping boy.

Another possible interpretation?

He’s having a shocker and he’s not on his own

    This is a very seasoned west coast side. 12 of them played in a GF. They have done their time. This is part of us doing ours.

    Much like the Pies last night all the bounces just seem to be going WC’s way. It’s the factor that you can never control.

    Could be a dangerous last quarter for Meth Coast.  They just want to preserve themselves.

    The game is gone, but I just really want us to physically hurt these FCKERS.  On the context of modern football history, I hate West Coast much, much more than I do Collingwood.

    That was a free to Smith in the goal square ....clearly pushed in the back after he kicked the goal.

    Brayshaw sums it up....

    We've bullocked our way through teams without a lot of polish, but turn up the heat and we sorely lack outside speed and clean hands

    We must recruit this in

    The most graceful thing Lewis could do would be to just King hit Nicholls and walk off.

    Nathan Jones and Lewis absolutely horrendous today. Jones 8 touches in 3 quarters (again goes missing) and Lewis has been so dumb it is alarming. Gawn 6 touches, Tyson and Milkshake 8 each, Weid and Frost way out of depth

    At least they haven’t extended their lead. I’ll take that at this point.

    Bounce of the ball is the least of our worries. We were smashed around the ball in the first half, fumbled, tackled with our arms instead of with the body...an all round diabolical half of football.

    To the melbourne fans that flew to perth well done on braving it out. My god I could not imagine how bad it would be for you all. 

    West Coast better bring the same intensity and pressure next week or I else I will be annoyed. 

    They just look so much bigger when they have Darling and Kennedy up there.

    Just not our day but at least we managed to kick some goals.

    I would enjoy giving that fat [censored] McGovern a bigger corkie. 

    Also Darling could use an accident smack to the head.

    Totally agree been in the comp for two minutes and have been perennially successful. To see their supporters swanning around like they are on vacation make me pewk. I guess it what we deserve but they know how to rub it in.

    Thanks for trotting out the meaningless cliche, but by definition, luck is literally the bounce of the ball, being the thing I was referring to. Or do you think Darling’s skill ‘made’ that bounce?

    Exactly. It’s still been a very good and very productive season. Bring on 2019! ??

    You just could not expect that we would completely capitulate at every contest, every clearance, every forward entry, every defensive mark, every... thing, basically. It's almost farcical how much has gone wrong today.

    Reminds me of the disastrous GF against Essendon 

     

    Who was it retiring and went out with a bang?

    The aftermath of today will be crucial. The Club has to be tough on this. This preformance cannot be repeated. 

    We know what happens when it does

    Tough, yes, but also it needs to be a considered approach. By all means the point needs to be made that today’s performance is not worthy of a PF for a spot in the GF, but there needs to be constructive learnings come out of this to help us progress further, as opposed to overwhelming the playing group as a result of a day where we were overwhelmed, that would see us go backwards.

    its a bad end to a positive season, with 2 enjoyable finals wins, but the playing group need to attack pre-season with a hunger for more finals wins.

    Shows how important top 4 is.

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      There was a time during the current Melbourne cycle that goes back to before the premiership when the club was the toughest to beat in the fourth quarter. The Demons were not only hard to beat at any time but it was virtually impossible to get the better them when scores were close at three quarter time. It was only three or four years ago but they were fit, strong and resilient in body and mind. Sadly, those days are over. This has been the case since the club fell off its pedestal about 12 months ago after it beat Geelong and then lost to Carlton. In both instances, Melbourne put together strong, stirring final quarters, one that resulted in victory, the other, in defeat. Since then, the drop off has been dramatic to the point where it can neither pull off victory in close matches, nor can it even go down in defeat  gallantly.

    • CASEY: Footscray

      At twenty-four minutes into the third term of the game between the Casey Demons and Footscray VFL at Whitten Oval, the visitors were coasting. They were winning all over the ground, had the ascendancy in the ruck battles and held a 26 point lead on a day perfect for football. What could go wrong? Everything. The Bulldogs moved into overdrive in the last five minutes of the term and booted three straight goals to reduce the margin to a highly retrievable eight points at the last break. Bouyed by that effort, their confidence was on a high level during the interval and they ran all over the despondent Demons and kicked another five goals to lead by a comfortable margin of four goals deep into the final term before Paddy Cross kicked a couple of too late goals for a despondent Casey. A testament to their lack of pressure in the latter stages of the game was the fact that Footscray’s last ten scoring shots were nine goals and one rushed behind. Things might have been different for the Demons who went into the game after last week’s bye with 12 AFL listed players. Blake Howes was held over for the AFL game but two others, Jack Billings and Taj Woewodin (not officially listed as injured) were also missing and they could have been handy at the end. Another mystery of the current VFL system.

      The Demons head back out on the road in Round 10 when they travel to Queensland to take on the reigning Premiers and the top of the table Lions who look very formidable. Can the Dees cause a massive upset? Who comes in and who goes out?

      Wayward kicking for goal, dump kicks inside 50 and some baffling umpiring all contributed to the Dees not getting out to an an early lead that may have impacted the result. At the end of the day the Demons were just not good enough and let the Hawks run away with their first win against the Demons in 7 years.
