Didn't realise Brayshaw and Oliver were late outs? 

I swear to god they didn’t touch the footy this game.

We are stuffed. We look completely devoid of any confidence and poise. Lost all our contested ball winning aggression. This season looks gone.

Jones is finished. I’m sorry mate but if you can’t snap for goal on your left from 40 out and even get it to the goal square then it’s time to move on.

I've lost my stream but sounds like they're out of sorts

Poor mental strength. It's either 'panic stations' or if they've managed to put together some nice play for a while it's 'all good now, so let's ease off'

Is Viney playing?

Nah, haven’t seen the real Jack for nearly three years now.

This is going to turn ugly, we are now playing without a midfield.

Still not winning ball at the contest. Where's the hardness gone ?

Swans get 3 soft goals due to our fumbling turnovers. Max keeps putting it down Swans players throats in the middle & who is playing on Alir Alir? Make him accountable FFS.

We don't have any players that have penetration in their snaps for goal.

There fixed it.

Mids need to lift.  No doubt about it. 

On the flip side we took our chances when we were presented with them.  We haven't done that at all this season, so that was good to see.

Our two way running still needs work, especially with their run and carry from half back.  We aren't playing well, but plenty of players can improve.  Not over yet.

He’s doing a lot of faux tough guy fighting. 

We have awful leadership.

Sydney's highest score in 12 games is 93... we give up 34 [censored] points in a quarter. Hore and Fritta only two defenders that can hold their head high

Posted

Our intensity is gone. Our midfield is shot. Our season is on a knifes edge here.


Posted

We look a bit scared again. Don't want contact and crapping ourselves and going to ground constantly.

Hate to say it but we've reverted to type this season...back to the bruise free Demons. Last year was an aberration on the physicality front (even then it wavered at times). 

Posted

Seriously..... we just chip the ball into the 50 with no attempt to spot anyone up... no leads! Can’t understand it.

Horrible start to this game.

Pruess, Max and Hore look ok... that’s about it so far ?

Posted

Letting Sydney score 5 goals for the quarter when they look as rubbish as we do. Well done. 

How long does someone get to correct how easily we get scored against?

Reckon Roos would take the job again?

Posted

They have almost 110 touches to quarter time. Double ours.

They have 13 shots on goal from 17 entries. 9 scores from 17 entries.

They have double our uncontested possessions. 

They have 13 more contested possessions.

Despite having so much more of the ball, they have laid as many tackles.

That was an annihilation.

To be fair, the kick was on his non-preferred, so it's to be expected.

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

We'll break down the Match SIM against North Melbourne and wrap up the preseason with insights into training and our latest recruits.

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo.
