Our forward line is complete puss.

T Mac is a slow, awkward doofus. Weed ain’t ready. Milkshake is badly out of sorts. Trac is a perennial disappointment. Our small forwards are...who are our small forwards again?

What we need is a strapping West Aussie who makes us walk an inch taller.

A day in the life ?

 

 

I'd like to join in on the complaining, but I haven't been watching sings 5mins into the 2nd, when we look flat as pancakes again.

 

What's worse is that @ding arrives on Monday, and I need to put up with his ranting when we lose again next week.

Bloody depressing.

Jetta has been absolutely putrid tonight!

The fact that I have so little faith in Goodwin only makes it worse. I hope like hell I am wrong, but god this feels like the beginning of another season from hell and I’m so tired. 

The crap this club continues to serve its supporters and members is a disgrace. 

 

You recall we won two finals last year right?

Bloody depressing.

Why would i rant when i have predicted both of our losses so far. I expected us to be poor.

P.S. lucky for us this narrow ground suits our game plan.

we Need to start looking to next year now. Put players out for surgeries and start the pre season. It already feels like they have written this year off with the amount of excuses already trotted out this puss club

    And the worst part? We have not a single good player waiting to come into this side in the near future. 

    Lever is weeks away. And other than Lever we haven’t got one player out who will make us a significantly better team. 


    Really shocking umpiring performance, how can you block someone from behind?

    Couldn't agree more.
    Didn't hear Hawthorn and Geelong complaining about short pre-seasons due to long finals campaigns and players off for surgeries when they were winning flags.

    Like every other decision that has gone their way.


    I hope we don't hear from Goodwin that "we didn't resemble ourselves".

    We did. Huge inside 50s with no result, done out the back again and again.

    That's  one of our classic losing modes.

    Did I mention no forward structure.

    Yes, it's wet.

    You hope to get four goals s quarter   Bloody not four goals for the whole game !

    16.5 on a wet night.

    This is "one of those games" where you can't do a thing wrong if you tried.

    We inspire that sort of form in our opponents, such is our limited ability at present.

     

    We won't be this bad all year.


    Vietnam war doco on history channel is interesting..

    This is atrocious, a cannot believe how many of our top players are out of form.  Good night all 

    They and we,  all fell for the positive fugazi during Preseason. 

     

    And we all made much of the fugazi ourselves,  selling ourselves our own hype.

    The players obviously believed it,  and are mentally under-prepared now,  and are playing catch-up,  Re confidence and also fitness,  because I think the Mfc fell into the same trap,  as we have.

    If only the conditions were nicer and the match was at the MCG...

    We have no efficiency and skill on the outside. This isn’t new, I’ve been saying it for years, but tonight highlights it.

    If we don’t smash teams around the ball, we are no chance.

    • PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      With both sides precariously positioned ahead of the run home to the finals, only one team involved in Sunday’s clash at the Adelaide Oval between the Power and the Demons will remain a contender when it’s over.  On current form, that one team has to be Melbourne which narrowly missed out on defeating the competition’s power house Collingwood on King's Birthday and also recently overpowered both 2024 Grand Finalists. Conversely, Port Adelaide snapped out of a four-game losing streak with a win against the Giants in Canberra. Although they will be rejuvenated following that victory, their performances during that run of losses were sub par and resulted in some embarrassing blow out defeats.

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

    • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

      The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Collingwood

      Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.
