Multiple Hawks get away with dropping or throwing the ball and we got pinged for a dubious to high in our fwd line. Almost goal.

I think I say it every week how the hell an AFL player can still try to take a chest mark is beyond me, extend your arms, there is a rule where a player can’t chop your arms (never applied now a days) and you can’t be spoiled!!

Umpires see what they want or are instructed to see. Less integrity than wrestling.

Terrible skill level.

No leadership.

What has happened to Tom McDonald and Fritsch?! Neither are even VFL standard at present. Staggering drop in form.

I'm sure TMc is injured.  Fritsch has always been fringe imo.

Hawthorn are ordinary... we aren't even at the level.  So flat, no ability to maintain possession beyond aboit 2 to 3 links.  Too many getting sucked to the contest at stoppages....STILL!!!???  Are we seriously  that dumb we cant play to a structure?? Cover the inside of their outlets at least and force them down the line!

Skills?  Clarry perpetually bombing.

Jeffy / T-mac....Pffft!

Can't believe we've gone this far backwards in 7 games of footy.

    Jordan Lewis needs to never play again. Has hand balled to old team mates

    kicked to wrong team and will not even pretend to chase. Just watches and points.

     

    FGS please put him out to pasture

    We need to start manning up on these hawks. Far to easy with them being able to get the ball down the ground. 

    Just saw bartlett and perty killing themselves laughing about something.  Glad they are enjoying themselves

    Hawks will pull away to a 10 goal lead then put the cue in the rack to stay fresh and uninjured. We will still madly run around like ants whose nest has been disturbed, and to the same effect.

    I've never seen a team run and work so hard yet achieve so little. It is astonishing. 

    I’m not watching - just listening but they (commentators) said we are playing a zone? Explains a lot of so

    Well, cracked record here: confidence (lack thereof)

    2 goals against us directly from players handballing to above the target's head. Professional athletes and they cant do the basics. Skills are appalling.

    Oh come on, they're [censored] good at holding weights underwater

    Embarrassingly poor

    No skills

    Too many commit to contests and 

    Selfish

     


    50 to 80 UCP. They have learnt nothing in almost 10 weeks of football.

    At least Garlett learnt from his mistake 

     

    Our 18th place decision making really compliments our 18th place skills. 

    I haven't missed a Dees game in Melbourne for about 10 years, and I would normally feel deep shame for not going today.

    But today I purely see it as an investment in my mental health. ?

    Finally some execution beyond 2 or 3 links....best play for weeks!


    We had 6 players alone in the F50 and still almost [censored] up that goal.

    Go big Declan, first mark leads to a goal

    Who did Lewis believe he was kicking it to then?   Run it out and use the new rules to pur advantage and gain another 10 meters FFS!

    Old man forgot the new rule, perhaps he's forgotten which team he plays for as well.

    So let’s see if this club has any ATTITUDE at all. 

    Goodwin your job is on the line, your players do not work hard enough every week. You can give me all the fancy [censored] answers about “processes in place” but that is all new age BS

    It all comes down to Attitude. 

    There is little pride in wearing the MFC Jumper, it has been shat on for too long, so now it smells bad. 

     

    Lift your game Goodwin, Coach the dam team to win. 

    You're sounding more and more like DV8

    OMG ...Jeffy

    • 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.
