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.

HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today.

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
