What was that effort from O-Mac....ran under the lot.  And Stretch's disposal running out there ...pure panic

 

Just get good deliverers inside 50 and a proper forward coach to teach effective leading patterns and we'll be fine…well, fine enough to beat GCS.

    Wasteful , Wasteful, wasteful.

    Any half decent team would be ten goals up by now.

    I wish TMac would make a lead

     

    It just occurred to me that we are genuinely a bottom 4 team right now, it's just that we've beaten two other bottom 4 teams. I feel sick.

    We are a disgrace. How any team can justify those inside 50s is beyond me. 35 inside 50s for 3 goals. What a joke. 

    We haven’t done a single thing to improve that ALL year and the season is gone. Wake up Goodwin!

    Gold Coast's strategy is clear:  Play through whoever Oscar is playing on. #football101

    sad but true

    You should probably get your eyes tested..  You do realise to be a goal it has to clear the line?  ?

    it did get your eyes checked

     

     

    Jones hacks the last kick inside 50

    Brayshaw handballs to someone under extreme pressure

    Oscar just completely fresh-airs an uncontested spoil  up the other end

    CLASSIC DEES I LOVE IT ?


    What has happened to the game post 666 is an abomination.  It's made it worse not better.  Well done Gil & Co!  ?

    don't know why people are complaining about the gameplan. there isn't one!

    Apologies to his brother but Keilty has been horrible. Preuss should have been played. Worst forward line ever.

    We cannot hit a target ? inside fifty. It’s deplorable. Jones’ last one when he had McDonald typifies the season to date. It’s so farrrrkin hard to watch. And when it goes the other end they convert from set shots because they hit short passes. Throw Salem forward. Also, I don’t understand what Keiltys role is. He did himself no favours in the first 20 minutes. Dropping marks and missing goals 


    I never thought kielty was gonna be the saviour but jeez I'm sure Casey has better players we couldve drafted than him. Shows no intensity 

    Not sure if this has been mentioned.

    This is an average game of footy.

    Not helped by two teams that are pushing numbers back.

    And that both teams are pretty [censored].

    Put Keilty on the bench and leave him there, I don’t know how he was able to get a second game but he is honestly the single worst footballer to wear our jumper I have ever seen. 

    Lewis is pretty horrible defensively. 

    Our forwards keep running under the football 

    Melbourne have been bad, but posts like this are just pathetic. Hope you feel better attacking someone through the anonymity of the internet.

    Pretty rare that every commentator in the box agrees on something, but they all agreed it hadn't crossed the line. 

    As did the third umpire.

    As did everyone except for you, Stevie Wonder.


    36 inside 50's for three goals.  A goalless quarter against the Gold Coast Suns

     go Dees!  You really make the supporters proud!

    garlett worst on ground. but seriously, why the hell is petracca played forward. one of the worst kicks for goal in the last decade. terrible coaching. he missed 2-3 goals that I personally would kick most of the time.

    Petracca has the yips! Why are we continually playing him as a forward?!?

    Because he can't play anywhere else 

    Not sure if there’s an issue with game plan. It’s just our ball skills trying to hit a target going inside 50. They’re terrible.

    • REPORT: Sydney

      A few weeks ago, I visited a fellow Melbourne Football Club supporter in hospital, and our conversation inevitably shifted from his health diagnosis to the well-being of our football team. Like him, Melbourne had faced challenges in recent months, but an intervention - in his case, surgery, and in the team's case, a change in game style - had brought about much improvement.  The team's professionals had altered its game style from a pedestrian and slow-moving approach, which yielded an average of merely 60 points for five winless games, to a faster and more direct style. This shift led to three consecutive wins and a strong competitive effort in the fourth game, albeit with a tired finish against Hawthorn, a strong premiership contender.  As we discussed our team's recent health improvement, I shared my observations on the changes within the team, including the refreshed style, the introduction of new young talent, such as rising stars Caleb Windsor, Harvey Langford, and Xavier Lindsay, and the rebranding of Kozzy Pickett from a small forward to a midfield machine who can still get among the goals. I also highlighted the dominance of captain Max Gawn in the ruck and the resurgence in form in a big way of midfield superstars Christian Petracca and Clayton Oliver.

    • POSTGAME: Sydney

      The Demons controlled the contest from the outset, though inaccurate kicking kept the Swans in the game until half time. But after the break, Melbourne put on the jets and blew Sydney away and the demolition job was complete.

    • CASEY: Northern Bullants

      The Casey Demons travelled to a windy Cramer Street, Preston yesterday and blew the Northern Bullants off the ground for three quarters before shutting up shop in the final term, coasting to a much-needed 71-point victory after leading by almost 15 goals at one stage. It was a pleasing performance that revived the Demons’ prospects for the 2025 season but, at the same time, very little can be taken from the game because of the weak opposition. These days, the Bullants are little more than road kill. The once proud club, situated behind the Preston Market in a now culturally diverse area, is currently facing significant financial and on-field challenges, having failed to secure a win to date in 2025.

    • GAMEDAY: Sydney

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons have a golden opportunity to build on last week’s stirring win by toppling Sydney at the MCG. A victory today would keep them firmly in the hunt for a finals spot and help them stay in touch with the pack chasing a place in the Top 8. Can the Dees make it two in a row and bring down the Swans?
