Night of passion with my boyfriend or watching this game in the hopes we could make an effort out of it. Gee I’m an idiot

Ā 

Petracca just did not go hard enough. That sums him up. Christian you are so frustrating.Ā 

Ugh next week is so so important. Massive, the loser will rightly so cop more heat.Ā 

Thank god I was out and only got home to watch the final term.Ā

Ho Hum.
S'pose we'll just have to redeem ourselvesĀ next week instead.


Ā 


Come on Dees. Get your s*** in a pile.

Playing like Freo did the year year after they first played finals. Not so much a Premiership hangover as a played finals one.

Prepared to cut KK and May some slack because it's their first game for us, but Tracc seriously needs a spell at CaseyĀ 

Pretty clear now with decent sampls size that were just not where we thought we were. ListĀ is youngĀ and seems to have far more gaps than we realised - WC started the misery and all clubs inc Bris have followed suit and showed us up for pace and with getting behind our back 6 consistently.Ā 

Much work to do to even salvage a top 8 spot let alone any grand delusions at this stage. Could be corrected by later in year but personally I cant see how. Cats went andĀ fixed their holes we’ve just viewed WC loss as a bad game and tried to doĀ same thing again without getting any fwd pressure in and a backman who we then play with two of the back men we wanted gone.. woeful and shame but it’s a LONG way off let’s not kid - we’re 8-13 at best I’d say.Ā 

Ā 

Hoped LW was aberration but gutĀ feelĀ was that it wasn’t - esp when blues nearly Knocked port off.. oh dear - we need 5-6 feisty pressure players at least over next year or two, or a miracle change in style.Ā 

Ā 

Ā 

Ā 

Too slow. Too unskilled.

We’re just not that good a side. We can play better than this but who would sayĀ our ceiling is as high as a team likeĀ Collingwood or WCE. We’re a mile off.

I also can’t helpĀ noticingĀ how much smaller we look than the oppo.Ā We look like a bunchĀ of shrimps comparedĀ to most sides.

There will be those that giggle and deride this thread as over -reactive. They'll say we need to review in cold light of tomorrow.

They're denialist. This is crud.

Actually...we aspire to crud. This is is devestational.

Even rubbish is useful if understood.

I ...just don't understand this club.

Nicely put.Ā 

For me this in many ways is more unacceptable than anything in the previous 8 years.

Now what I just saw is beyond a joke.

You recall we won two finals last year right?

I do and then when we came up against an actual contender we got flogged and we haven’t won a game since.Ā 

The team we beat in a final just flogged us like a dead horse.Ā 

We won nothing in 2018 and 2019 looks like it will be much the same.Ā 

Live ladder has us just above Norf forĀ wooden spoon with % of 47.4

Absolutely squibbed it. He has been awful. Not improving...a footballer going nowhere! I want him to be good but it ain’t happening

Thats was a commitment act.Ā Ā  And he is not totally committed, and so is not fully focused, because of it.

He will never get any better as long as he does not fully commit to the team and to the game.Ā Ā  Tracca thinks far too much about tracca.

Ā 

Mind you, he has a few mates doing similar this season.

Fritta is disappointing so far.Ā  I think Fritta needs a spell at Casey.Ā  He is well off his own standards.

I would persevere with Hunt, but push him forward.

I wouldĀ  drop Petracca now with Fritta, so they both can sort themir heads out with the VFL.

Its time for Keilty, and Stretch again.

Keep Lockhart in.

Sparra back to Casey.

Ā 

I want to see a quicker running Mfc team next week, against the Bummers.


Um ...Hawkins had enough time to give away a goal - just stood in the goal square, waited for the second gamer to arrive, and give him the ball for a goal.

Cones at training do better than we are doing.

Oliver - star, never stop trying

Braywhaw, Hibberd, Melksham and a few others

Ā 

126 to 40 - and we have had nearly DOUBLE the inside 50s...

Shocking

The Soft Underbelly is still in charge...

This Club will go nowhere without more ruthless decisionsĀ 

this is just garbage

Check out round 4 last year.

We've had 72 to 48 inside 50s, cats have been super efficient, we will be fine.

  • REPORT: Adelaide

    The atmosphere at the Melbourne Football Club at the beginning of the season was aspirational following an injury-plagued year in 2024. Coach Simon Goodwin had lofty expectations with the return of key players, the anticipated improvement from a maturing group with a few years of experience under their belts, and some exceptional young talent also joining the ranks. All of that went by the wayside as the team failed to click into action early on. It rallied briefly with a new strategy but has fallen again with five more Ā consecutive defeats.Ā

  • CASEY: Coburg

    The Casey Demons returned to their home ground which was once a graveyard for opposing teams but they managed to gift the four points on offer to Coburg with yet another of their trademark displays of inaccuracy in front of goals and some undisciplined football that earned the displeasure of the umpires late in the game. The home team was welcomed by a small crowd at Casey Fields and looked right at home as it dominated the first three quarters and led for all bar the last five minutes of the game. In the end, they came away with nothing, despite winning everywhere but on the scoreboard and the free kick count.

  • PREGAME: Rd 18 vs North Melbourne

    After four weeks on the road the Demons make their long awaited return to the MCG next Sunday to play in a classic late season dead rubber against the North Melbourne Kangaroos. Who comes in and who comes out?

  • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

    The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.
