We haven’t beat the Swans since Dean Bailey was our coach. He’s been dead for four years.

With the side in poor form, and knowing how the Swans own us, i have zero confidence about tomorrow’s match.

    Dark cloud over this team. Seem really bereft of confidence.

    Goodys pressers make it seem he isnt quite sure how it all went wrong or how to fix it.

    Would love if we turned it around, but history shows how poor we are against them... and up there its been how long since we won?

     

     

     

    Adam was playing full back for Tel-Aviv.

    No Preuss

    If this is the case, Preuss will have decided that he joined the wrong club given all the pre-season hype about him forming a partnership with Max. He will be disappointed and frustrated.

    If ANB is in the team I will not watch this game. 

    Where you really thinking of watching the game?

    Go for a romantic candlelight dinner, nice music in the background, a very nice red (don't go for value forget the price), TV or mobile not close by. And don't check the result until next day.

    He got dropped and then had his jaw broken in his VFL match. He got dropped for a reason and hasn’t had time to rectify the cause of his  dropping and build form to return to AFL level. If he plays, itr decision making by the coaching staff.

    It is called desperation!

    Might be because it is not on the weekend.

    Would not be surprised if this is our biggest loss for the year. I honestly think we will be slaughtered.

    Next week the turnaround begins and we start to rebuild confidence in the game plan and each other (players i mean)

    Cant bring myself to watch this game live, thats how little faith i have in the team right now.

    We’ll come out strong and keep them at arms length for the entire night.

    I'm weirdly confident this will be the week we turn things around.

    I'm sure it's completely misplaced. I just don't see how we can play much worse than we have been to date.

    If we can continue on with some consistency then I'm expecting Franklin to kick 12 on Frost, and Oscar to find himself manning someone like Papley who will kick 6 on him by running circles around him.

    Can't wait, should be a corker.

    Agree ( so far ).

    @dazzledavey36   what you gonna do if ANB isnt dropped tonight?     Lets see if your dream finally comes true.

    There is almost zero chance of ANB being dropped so don't get your hopes up guys.

    if you are confused as to why - have a look at the Casey game on the weekend

    Excellent point. The lack of depth amplifies why the outlook is so grim. ANB know he will get picked. Selection pressure is a critical factor in keeping players honest. ANB would definitely be dropped if there was an alternative.

    The first game i will watch this week without any distractions or commitments.

    Dees by 27pts.

    Spargo spotted (alongside Stretch) in the airport this morning. Possibly a quick return post-injury, or at least named as an emergency.

    I used to say that back in the Neeld days and look how that turned out.

    Surely he wont be named @Petraccattack.. i cannot physically or mentally see how the [censored] he can justify his place in the team.

    Can't believe Jeff was not on the plane! 

    He is the only one with a bit of x factor and knows where the goals are.  His defensive skills can't be any worse than anyone else in the team.

    He was out injured for just a few weeks so how many games at Casey does he need?  Instead we take an undersized, underdeveloped kid who was dropped after one game and recovering from a broken jaw.

    Just don't understand our selection criteria anymore.

    Fear his card has been stamped.

    • PREVIEW: Essendon

      Not long ago, the narrative surrounding Melbourne was steeped in pessimism. There was some concern among the pundits (and even some fans) that the club would arrive at the AFL’s Gather Round still winless, vulnerable to a familiar adversary in the Essendon Football Club, and facing significant scrutiny from an ever-critical media on a national stage. Things have changed.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      Steven King astutely identified the issues that had plagued the Melbourne Football Club over the past two and a half seasons when he auditioned for the newly created coaching role. The side that had claimed the 2021 premiership had become stodgy, slow-paced, and hesitant to take the initiative.

      The Demons put four quarters of hard contested, fast running and high pressure football to knock off the ladder leaders and early premiership contenders the Gold Suns by 20 points at the MCG on Easter Sunday.

    • PODCAST: Gold Coast

      I’ll be away for the next few weeks, so Binman will be holding the fort for our podcasts covering the Suns, Bombers and Lions matches. As a result, there will be no live podcasts during this period, and we won’t be taking calls or voicemails. Binman will still be dipping into this thread to select a few questions to answer, while also combining the long-form Stats Files podcast with the Demonland Podcast for these shows. Your questions and comments are a huge part of what makes the podcast work, so please post anything you’d like to ask or say below and we’ll do our best to give you a shout-out on the show. Please try to keep each post focused on one specific topic or player to make podcast preparation a little easier. If you have multiple topics you’d like to raise, please put them in separate posts.
