If we can hold Brisbane to 27 goals we can consider it a win. 

 

Clarry's been quiet too. We appear to be half arsed in our tackling. Hope they get their act together in the next couple of weeks.

 

Guys it’s ok. We are handballing it a bazillion more times than kicking... it’s all good!

Only positives so far are Hunt and Petracca playing to their strengths and having an impact. Gawn is wining taps, but it's not leading to any effective clearances. Everyone else is playing poorly, and the effort is non-existent.

Hope the coach gives them a rocket and makes them have a crack. We're getting shown up by a worse team than us who are more organised and working harder.

attitude going into, preparing for this game

For what it is worth, just saw Preuss walking off with no limb

do you mean limp

 

We are playing like a side that doesn't want to be out there, soft dropping marks, its like we just want to get through to round 1

 

Good god ANB is horrible.. can never keep his feet and just fumbly at all costs. 

Hibberd is a worry for me.

JLT melts in full swing...

Not sure if you've noticed Sisso, but going back to early 2000's, our season proper has generally reflected our pre-season form.

Imagine having to go to Amersfoort ?

I've been to both Cranbourne East and  Amersfoort. There are an awful lot of Dutchmen there but frankly, I prefer Amersfoort.

Lions taking this game very seriously. Dees taking it half arsed. Scoreline reflects it. 

Is it for four points? No. Just get through boys.

Nibbler has been awful this pre season. No other way to dress it.

Yep about to say... nibbler hasnt hit a target all game and is going to ground WAY too easy... 

a few egos deflated in that qtr playing like a bunch of prima donnas  and shirt lifters

 

Oscar is a spud he will cost us games he gave away the first 3 goals bring in Frost.


Started ok with their first 2 goals coming from Oscar McDonald being a total turnip.

After that it’s been lazy tackling, poor skills, inability to get balance at a clearance or a crumb and the backline going to [censored].

Why we are playing a spare behind the ball in a practice game is beyond me. Are we really that slow????

Not surprised Brisbane are good. More disappointed we can’t string any midfield skill together

I backed him last week, but he missed a handball, slipped over etc. He had a bit of a mare early.

Possibly, can’t find it in myself to get worried about this yet though 


Watt do you think happens... when players go into a game,  and play to not get injured. ????

At this stage I’ll take my chances with C wagner over ANB

AVB cheap shot. Why? So so so dumb.

Poor JHK that looks awful! wishing him a speedy recovery.

  • REPORT: Geelong

    I was disappointed to hear Goody say at his post match presser after the team’s 39 point defeat against Geelong that "we're getting high quality entry, just poor execution" because Melbourne’s problems extend far beyond that after its 0 - 4 start to the 2025 football season. There are clearly problems with poor execution, some of which were evident well before the current season and were in play when the Demons met the Cats in early May last year and beat them in a near top-of-the-table clash that saw both sides sitting comfortably in the top four after round eight. Since that game, the Demons’ performances have been positively Third World with only five wins in 19 games with a no longer majestic midfield and a dysfunctional forward line that has become too easy for opposing coaches to counter. This is an area of their game that is currently being played out as if they were all completely panic-stricken.

  • NON-MFC: Round 04

    Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

  • POSTGAME: Geelong

    The Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, falling to 0–4 after a more spirited showing against the Cats at Kardinia Park. Despite the improved effort, they went down by 39 points, and the road ahead is looking increasingly grim.
