We made and won finals without him. He isn’t the reason we can’t win a game. 

Agree, we would not suddenly kick it well into the f50 cos Hogan was there, we would butcher it to him instead of another player.

Are Hibbard and Lewis both now out injured..? 

Posted (edited)

Lets go draft some more hard no skill players.

Lewis finished, enough of the one handed tackles and turnovers. 

Garlett shat himself 3 times going for a mark. Magnificent.

Petracca is the worst kick for goal in AFL history and is just a player who destroys the efforts of his team mates.

Keilty, sorry Drunk’n, but he is having a shocker. Not sure why Preuss wasn’t played. Preuss had 49 hit outs and 2 goals for Casey today. 

World record entries in F50 for least return. 

They  are the most poorly skilled side in the AFL and plenty of us have said it for a few years now and to me nothing has been done about it.

Even if we fluke a win today what I said stands. 

It is actually embarrassing watching us play. How can you as an AFL player not be able to kick, mark and handball.  It defies logic.

Jeff has run under the ball and squibbed 2 easy AFL marks already. Unforgivable to do it twice in a half. Bruise free stuff from Jeff. Won't play next week

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 

Grow up, decrepit old man

I 'm in Edinburgh now. It's only 9.00 am but I'm going to have a 'wee Doc and Doris ' and a good lie down. Can't say I'm missing the footy. It sounds pretty bad by all accounts.

Watching this rubbish is robbing me of the will to live.

Really, though? We are dominating everywhere but the score, and actually defending well. 

Agree - I actually think we're playing much better, and starting to see the Melbourne of last year.

Up until we go I50 that is.

Tom Mac really down on form/confidence isn't helping - and it isn't helping the players up the field either, because they're not automatically looking for him, thus hesitation, thus the kind of all-over-the-place entries we're seeing.

Yet another goalless quarter. 

Are there stats re dominating inside 50 without scoring goals? We must surely be near some sort of record.

Lewis got stood on Ibelieve? Didint look too bad.

Pathetic skill levels from the team tonight. An embarrassment.

Are you sure you are not an alias for Titus?

Forward entry dirtier than Ricky Nixon's black book.

Just Filthy!!!

No matter what, Goodwin refuses to play man on man. We must always leave a player loose in our back half, which makes our forwardline constantly outnumbered and playing 2 on 1.

When will we learn that without proper numbers up forward we can’t influence the scoreboard, no matter how many times we bomb it in there? 

We cannot hit a target sure, but TMac is always playing on two defenders. And Garlett gets the ball kicked over his head and there are two loose GC players. We have no chance because we are conceding a forward. 

First point. That's why we aren't getting smashed at the moment. 

Second Point. It's the bombing in that's the problem.

Third Point. If we have a man back and TMac is has two players playing on him..... we have a one on one if we don't do dumb crap. Garlett can't have two players loose if TMac has two defenders playing on him.

3 goals in a half of football against Gold Coast.

3 [censored] goals

Can't wait to count how many "connections" references our middle manager coach will make at his concession speech. The one thing we can count on is that it will outnumber the goals we kick.

We are playing well all over the ground but as soon as we see that 50 meter line we become idiots.

This season is over. Let’s finish low and draft skilled players. Yes I said skilled players. Salem would be so happy to have some friends.

The balance (inside and out) from last week has gone.  Viney, so far, has not added to the team and is flat footed around the contest.

Again we are back to too many pure coal face players at the contest with no ability to break away and release to the likes of Stretch (is he there?),  Salem and Fritshkreig (out best ball users).

Stewy Dew's worried about our "polish"?

    HIGHLIGHTS/LOWLIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Melbourne traveled across the continent to take on the Fremantle Dockers in sweltering conditions at Mandurah south of Perth in a game that delivered the club both its highlight and its lowlight in the first minute.  But first, let’s start by doing away with the usual cliches used in connection with the game. It was just a practice match and the result didn’t matter. Bad kicking is bad football. The game was played in severe heat, the swirly breeze played havoc with both teams resulting in

    TRAINING: Friday 28th February 2025

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers headed down to Gosch's Paddock to bring you their observations from today's training session before the Demons head off to Perth for their final Practice Match. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Beautiful morning, not much wind, more than a couple of dozen spectators.  The players were up and about, boisterous and having fun. One of their last drills were three teams competing in a hard at it, handball game in a small area. Goody

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the
