Chocolates to boiled lollies, is there another team in world sport as pathetic as us. I'm now convinced that we will never win a flag in my life time. Seriously mentally weak!!!!!!!

Oscar Mc Turbo is In!!?

It is difficult to be at a footy match at the moment, with OMac selected.

Not sure if we can take another dependency ride on his incomparable idleness at a snail's pace.

It was an effort in score minimisation. His coaching performance against Richmond reflected a coach with zero confidence in the potential for a win. 

That says a lot about our leadership atm. 

Regretfully, the leadership is missing and the waning confidence is really the only thing we are likely to see, this year. Its consequences are already on the ladder and are there, to stay. We need to send out - right around the country - emissaries who work in tandem (for confirmatory purposes on a recruit) to identify and nab talent wherever it may lie. The profiles of a great recruiting drive are widespread but we can all imagine just what such personnel will possess - and what limitations they will exhibit. This needs to be matched with a more sustained and in-depth player development process including onfield exposure in our re-building processes and timeframe.

Ha! What makes anybody think we're going to beat Hawthorn?

Never in doubt, ya muppet.

Shame shame shame

Childish response to a legitimate concern that lingers year in and year out. Two wins for the year is well under par for our Team and its playing stocks so an expression and encouragement for assurance or investment in the short-term future may reduce the stroke count significantly.

At any rate, I am delighted with the win today as are many who had earlier concerns of this game. However, one rainbow a successful year does not make and if left as an isolate, the short-term future might well look glum as well. My shame, by the way, is reserved for far weightier matters on occasion and cannot be judged by those pre-occupied with labelling theories. Good night.

  • REPORT: Carlton

    I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

  • CASEY: Carlton

    The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

  • POSTGAME: Carlton

    A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
