People can say the there was no heart, no desire, not trying, etc. but I disagree. There was plenty of effort in the first half. The problem was the usual structural issues - we were absolutely s

There have no doubt been some really bad performances (Lewis, Spargo, McDonald, Jones etc), but this is so clearly coaching to me I’m astounded others don’t see it.

Structure, selection and game day. It appalling and questions must be asked!!!

Everything is [censored] poor.

Lyon and Roos were talking about the players not doing what the coach wants the to. I don't think that's right at all. I think they are doing exactly what they are coached to do and it's killing us. Our systems range from rubbish to non-existent.

The team is not what we were led to believe. Just when you thought there was hope. This.

I think finals are now a pipedream this year.

No system, no structure, no defence.

This is simply back to reality for MFC supporters.

We are once again the laughing stock of AFL.

Unforgivable for this list.

Well I was dead wrong. The Saints aren’t the bees knees, but they play a really simple and effective game style. Tore us to pieces in the middle and their transition from defence is very good and no nonsense.

The only 4 we’ll be worrying about this year is the bottom 4.

I honestly believe that we will end up bottom of the ladder. Can’t believe in a million years that I would have said that after last year’s form.

I have no idea where to start. Going in so small in the backline. Come on selection. Why can’t the coaching staff see this. Anyway, it’s the worst of our worries. Weid, tmac 0 goals. Far out. We stink

I can’t even curse and swear

Im not even interested in spanking the maid

That was just embarrassing 

Sadly we’ve got nothing left. 

Maybe we can turn May and Lever into key forwards- FMD!

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the scorching morning heat to bring you the following observations of Wednesday's preseason training session from Gosch's Paddock. 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. Firstly the bad news - McVee went down late, which does look like a bad hammy - towards the end of match sim, as he kicked the ball. Had to

    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
