    Brayshaw gets a load of football... but how many rushed, pointless bomb-around-the-body kicks has he done tonight that have been to no advantage or straight turnovers. 

    Im getting sick of seeing it... I understand the hundred handballs are tough with Tiger pressure but what about wide spread instead of 0.5m handballs to stationary teammates...

    The fumbles tonight as well. FMD, what happened to “getting back to the basics.”  Watched the half time drill of picking it up off the deck, translated to nothing during game time.

    Goodwin needs to go for the win here.

    Put Mcdonald forward.

    Here's a stat...first four goals from 8 inside 50's. We have scored one goal from the next 23.

    No one at CHF or higher to take the relief contested mark!!   Playing Weid is like playing a man down.  T-mac experiment over until he gets some resemblence of his 2018 form back.  Running at about 40% of that output/quality right now.

    Time to bring Keilty in


    The tigers have been garbage, but at least they kick goals more than once in a million forward 50 entries. We're lucky that we are not 100 points down, we would be against a side playing well. TMac is so horribly out of form, he can't take a trick anywhere on the ground. That moment where he tried to run off his opponent was hard to watch. 

     it is winnable but given the poor way we have been playing it would really take some effort to get up from here. just no one up forward standing up, the tigers are tearing us apart from defence and our players cannot take a mark cannot chase and cannot tackle. I think weidermans kick to jones sums up our night. even when there is no pressure our players cannot do it right.

    Stretch has been really good.  13 touches, 7 of them contested, and he's generally made good decisions.  Hopefully, like others have mentioned, he gets a good run at it from here.

    ...and Viney burned him that Q...

    Cost us 2 goals the skipper.

    Needs to learn what team is...

    That bloke wearing number 31 should go and hide in the stands. Has none of Barassi's courage AT ALL. The softest player I have seen in many years. You can throw the Weid in that mix. I said earlier we need our best players playing at their best and the others putting in honest efforts.  Some are but boy are some just going through the motions.

    Time for these guys to stand up in last quarter. PLEASE.

    Fritz is playing like he doesn't want to have the ball in his hands. He hands it off straight away to whoever is near him. Doesn't matter if it's a Melbourne player under pressure or a Richmond player or the ground. He doesn't take ownership of the ball and look for the best option. What's going on with that?

    Send him forward


    Hogan got more touches and score in one game then May and Weiderman combined over the last 3 weeks.

    Put Weide deep...  bring jSmith up to the flank or wing...  to play between the Wing and the F50.

    We need to mark the ball around the middle to calm us down from overusing it.

    There is a serious lack of belief out there. We all know our players can hit a Target and can pick up the ball. We watched it for a season. 

    I can see the Tiggers blowing this out in the last.

    Shame as they dont deserve a percentage booster.

    Our boys have chased tail all night.

    With not much left in the legs, this could get very ugly in the last and the Toiges can smell blood.

    Basic skill errors and no brains has killed us all night.

    It is sad how quickly we have become a rabble drinking our own bathwater.?

    HOW MANY [censored] TIMES ARE WE GOING TO KICK IT TO A RICHMOND DEFENDER?!?!?!?!?!

    Embrace that anger WB, welcome to the dark side.

    To answer your question though, ah for [censored] sake!

    McDonald has to go forward this quarter... no point trying to reduce a loss

    McDonald can't catch the ball in defence what makes you think he can do it forward...

     

    fritter is better than what he is doing tonight ,confidence is shot like the rest of them

    • Thank You Simon Goodwin

      As Demon fans, we’ve ridden a rollercoaster of emotions over the decades; the heartbreaks, the near misses, the wooden spoons, and the endless waiting. But through it all, we clung to hope. And then came Simon Goodwin. Before he ever wore red and blue, he was a champion in his own right. A five-time All-Australian, two-time Best and Fairest, and two-time premiership hero and Captain with Adelaide, Simon Goodwin was always destined to lead. When he transitioned from the field to the coach's box, first as an assistant at Essendon, he began shaping a new legacy.

    • PREVIEW: Western Bulldogs

      Long ago and far away, the Melbourne Football Club replaced its coach in difficult circumstances after the team suffered a devastating loss. In the aftermath, I penned the following words: “Then came the politics, the intrigue, the axing, the sound of the football world laughing at a club, the circling of the media vultures, the reinvention of history, the anger, the irony, the pathos, the hurt on the face of the president, the dignified departure of the coach, and the determination of the newly appointed caretaker.” Today, we’re back in the same place although one difference here is that the coach who was terminated this time is Simon Goodwin, the man who four years ago

    • REPORT: West Coast

      The Charles Dickens novel, A Tale of Two Cities, opens with, “It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, …”  This phrase highlights many of the significant challenges that humanity encounters in life, ranging from experiencing remarkable highs to living in times of despair. This is a concept that should resonate with all supporters of the Melbourne Football Club this morning as they reflect on its comprehensive 83-point victory over the struggling West Coast Eagles at Marvel Stadium. The outcome proved beyond doubt that they are the worst of clubs and that we are the best of the worst.

    • PREGAME: Western Bulldogs

      With only 3 games to go, all against Top 8 fancies, the Demons face a daunting task as they return to the MCG when they play the Western Bulldogs. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      The Demons return to town fresh off a thumping win over the back-to-back wooden spooners, the West Coast Eagles, played in front of a sparse crowd at Marvel Stadium, the same venue that hosted last week's heartbreaking loss.
