Atleast we'll get a pick sooner than Norf & Siddy next week. We should go for another dumb, slow, in and under with poor kicking style type to complement the rest.

    Yep. As the years have gone on I have become more and more detached. This club is such a disappointment it’s hard to keep caring. 

    Lowest half time score by any team this season. Melbourne keeps breaking those wonderful records.

    And to think I planned my September holidays around the finals fixture ??

    Im not far behind.

    Seriously wondering why I am paying a membership at this point.

     

    Our midfield is getting destroyed.

    I don’t know what the deal with Brayshaw is but he needs to be either rested or sent to Casey cause this is a joke performance. Viney not much better.

    Must be short and unable to take overhead marks.

    This is the outcome you get when you don't complete a full pre season.

    Farmer and Robbo walking the boundary 

    perhaps they should be playing 

    rather them than some who do not seem to care.  Take some angry pills Melb 


    Kane Cornes is saying his usual stuff about us on SEN which frankly we need to hear more of internally - there's something way off about us all year!

    Having watched him on tv the last couple of weeks (whereas I normally watch the game live), and he is just not going into contests. Refuses to bend, tackle, or raise his arms. Can’t break out of a jog. 

    I am going to assume he is injured but not badly enough to give him a rest considering our injury list right now.

    all those useless high bombs? 

    a) we're hardly getting it in there, high bombs or not and b) as you pointed out, they're useless.

    I get that we need "reasons", but thinking that we're getting slaughtered because one player wasn't selected is over-the-rainbow.

    We're getting slaughtered because half our team is out, and has been out since the beginning of the pre-season, and everything that flows from that.

    Correct. This is what happens when you do jack [censored] planning during pre season.

    Agree, but we have been miles off all year. Teams have also worked out our stoppage work and lack of leg speed around the contest.

    I would move heaven and earth to get Ben Brown. Our forwardline is an abomination alongside the rest of our team. 


    What a flaccid, unlikeable, heartless mess of a team the Demons are in 2019.

    The players don't care, they're not playing for the coach or the fans.  How do you go from 100 points a week to 1 goal in a half?

    It's like our mandate was to assemble a bunch of blokes with the lowest possible footy IQ and kicking skills the AFL has ever seen all on one list.  Shocking recruitment. Gawn, get out while you still can.

    This is the reason Misson is no more.

    Pay him out and set him free, nothing but a liability.

    He needs a long jumper. And while you're at it bring out trackie pants. He's getting cold.

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.

    • CASEY: Sandringham

      The Casey Demons rebounded from a sluggish start to manufacture a decisive win against Sandringham in the final showdown, culminating a quarter century of intense rivalry between the fluctuating alignments of teams affiliated with AFL clubs Melbourne and St Kilda, as the Saints and the Zebras prepare to forge independent paths in 2026. After conceding three of the first four goals of the match, the Demons went on a goal kicking rampage instigated by the winning ruck combination of Tom Campbell with 26 hitouts, 26 disposals and 13 clearances and his apprentice Will Verrall who contributed 20 hitouts. This gave first use of the ball to the likes of Jack Billings, Bayley Laurie, Riley Bonner and Koltyn Tholstrup who was impressive early. By the first break they had added seven goals and took a strong grip on the game. The Demons were well served up forward early by Mitch Hardie and, as the game progressed, Harry Sharp proved a menace with a five goal performance. Emerging young forwards Matthew Jefferson and Luker Kentfield kicked two each but the former let himself down with some poor kicking for goal.
      Young draft talent Will Duursma showed the depth of his talent and looks well out of reach for Melbourne this year. Kalani White was used sparingly and had a brief but uneventful stint in the ruck.

      The Demons return to the scene of the crime on Saturday to face the wooden spooners the Eagles at the Docklands. Who comes in and who goes out? Like moving deck chairs on the Titanic.

      It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?
