Fritsch and Lockhart cost us huge this last quarter, back to Casey for them


Just too many players who drop marks or miss handballs and kicks or make poor decisions.

Oliver had 2 handball clangers in a row which led to an Eagles goal.

Frost makes a great tackle then turns it straight over. How long has he been in the system?

Petracca drops marks and misses easy shots.

Garlett misses easy shots.

Hore takes a great intercept mark then squares to CHB and turns it over. His kicking is not reliable enough to ever take that kick.

Set shots terrible.

Repeat ad nauseum.

Season gone.

Whole footy department should be under pressure. Coaches and players. What a waste.

    I’ve said it before.

    Our team is full of dumb/plain footballers. Not ‘game smart’.

    Still loved the effort but there were so many opportunities tonight where we just needed to do simple ‘team’ things that we weren’t able to do.

    Not to mention bad kicking for goal.

    Post game thread will be toxic but with this list, their ground and their umps - heads high

    Typical Melbourne supporters. Act like we're a great chance after the hawthorn game, some of you should be so embarrassed by being 'excited' about the win

    Then you praise Frost and suggest he is loyal and many suggest he is ahead of May

    The year is over, accept it, move on and stop blaming the umpires when we are [censored] and inaccurate 

     

    If good players can’t  kick straight at goal they aren’t good players. Simple fact.

    mot the umps fault, our own for missing far too many easy goals

    Looking to see Rioli rubbed out for his concussion causing sling tackle on Smith

    Smith back on, but has to be careless and medium impact given he was down for a while and went off for concussion test. 


    Seriously, Melbourne must send a please explain to the AFL about poor umpiring

    • 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?

    • NON-MFC: Round 11

      Round 11, the second week of The Sir Doug Nicholls Round, kicks off on Thursday night with the Cats hosting the Bulldogs at Kardinia Park. Geelong will be looking to to continue their decade long dominance over the Bulldogs, while the Dogs aim to take another big scalp as they surge up the ladder. On Friday night it's he Dreamtime at the 'G clash between Essendon and Richmond. The Bombers will want to avoid another embarrassing performance against a lowly side whilst the Tigers will be keen to avenge a disappointing loss to the Kangaroos. Saturday footy kicks off as the Blues face the Giants in a pivotal clash for both clubs. Carlton need to turn around their up and down season while GWS will be eager to bounce back and reassert themselves as a September threat. At twilight sees the Hawks taking on the Lions at the G. Hawthorn need to cement themselves in the Top 4 but they’ll need to be at their best to challenge a Brisbane side eager to respond after last week’s crushing loss to the Dees on their home turf. The first of the Saturday night double headers opens with North Melbourne up against the high-flying Magpies. The Roos will need a near-perfect performance to trouble a Collingwood side sitting atop the ladder.
