What a [censored] pathetic response mfc, you have lost me and my family.

 

Is Brian Royal coaching the backline now?

 

TMac down back, throw Oscar forward..

Good thing we traded 3 first rounders to fix up the backline.

    May have saved our worst quarter for now and that's saying something. I've seen junior footy games more organised than this. Everyone hunting the ball.

    Disgusting Putrid F’n brain dead backline. 

    Lets a spud like McKernan get 2 goals. The back coach must be sacked immediately 

     

    This is a coaching effort at this stage. Winning too much of the ball and far too inefficient. Structurally and defensively we are pathetic. 

    Two prime time night matches in the first three weeks of the season and we're playing the worst football in the league.

    Mutch is done for the night so they are one down already. Won't matter when they are 10 goals up, but still.

    I simply cannot get over how putrid we have become.

    Correct.  This is a bad dream.  essendon skills so much better     Give me bloody strength     almost unwatchable.  

    Interesting how, when under intense media pressure we are the one team who can be relied on NOT to respond.

    Go Dees.

    Very very average.

    Defense is putrid.

    There isn't as much bombing forward but still the delivery is abominable.

    Get your act together Demons!

    shocking by us and the umps

    Mekernen ran straight past the pack and bumped gawn to stop his run at the pack, play on, essendon goal, this is terrible by us and cant see the team turning this around this game while umpire calls are causing more score board pressure. We're [censored], but the umpiring is so far beyond [censored] it hurts watching. We've even been screwed with advantage, not allowed when in play for us, ball had almost stopped and play had halted, essendon goal.

     

    And the reaction from the players is? I will not be able to leave the house for a whole year if the Bombers win.

     

    We look slow.

    We can’t tackle.

    We fumble.

    We constantly overrun the ball on the ground.

    We can’t hit targets.

    We don’t know how to crumb.

    We can’t break tackles.

    We have no structure.

    We have zero accountability.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.
