    Derpwayne basically having an orgasm right now.

     

    Surely this is a coaching issue it just seems we have no structure defensively I can't understand how we arrived again this year with such a poor understanding of the basics of the game

    Supporters leaving already....?


    Ever since the R23 debacle, I made a promise to myself I'll always wait for Melbourne to earn my membership. 

    would have been easy to renew over the summer. 

    Very glad I waited. I know it isn't much - petty even - but it feels satisfying the Dees finally have to earn my money.

    Lever and May won't fix much.

    How is it possible to be, boringly once again, ahead on inside 50s yet be 7goals down. 

    Just has to be poor structure and incompetent coaching, and or lack of heart. 

    ONE BLOODY GOAL SINCE QUARTER TIME!  EXPLAIN  THAT GOODWIN looking more and more like an Essendon implant.

    Can’t use May and Lever as an excuse when they’re missing Carlisle and Roberton

    ...Being outplayed by the St Kilda Spuds. 

    Such mixed emotions. If my son hadn't been born on Wednesday, I'd call this a bad week. Instead, it's my best week ever. Maybe when my son starts to follow along we'll be ok?

    We climbed what felt like Mt Everest with an albatross around our neck, when we finally got there we got a little taste of the chocolate, then fell all the way back down right back to purgatory.

    You are diverting. Nothing wrong with the umpiring.

    Miss finals (which now seems a certainty) and i expect a mass exodus of players looking for somewhere with a promising future at years end..

    This club is sick to its bones.


    I have said for two years that Goodwin needs to go. He is the worst coach in the comp. we lose the exact same way every week and are actually getting worse at it as at least we used to be able to score but that is now gone. 

    How we signed him for another 4 years without even giving him half a season to prove last year wasn’t a fluke, I will never know. 

    Another season down the toilet.

    That quarter was a genuine embarrassment. 

    They were +40 or so in disposals but +8 in tackles and they beat us in CPs. 

    That sort of effort is utterly disgraceful.

And which results would be most favourable for the Demons if we can manage to turn our season around?

    • REPORT: Port Adelaide

      Of course, it’s not the backline, you might argue and you would probably be right. It’s the boot studder (do they still have them?), the midfield, the recruiting staff, the forward line, the kicking coach, the Board, the interchange bench, the supporters, the folk at Casey, the head coach and the club psychologist  It’s all of them and all of us for having expectations that were sufficiently high to have believed three weeks ago that a restoration of the Melbourne team to a position where we might still be in contention for a finals berth when the time for the midseason bye arrived. Now let’s look at what happened over the period of time since Melbourne overwhelmed the Sydney Swans at the MCG in late May when it kicked 8.2 to 5.3 in the final quarter (and that was after scoring 3.8 to two straight goals in the second term).

    • CASEY: Essendon

      Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

    • PREGAME: Gold Coast

      The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

    • POSTGAME: Port Adelaide

      The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
