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.

    • NON-MFC: Round 06

      The Easter Round kicks off in style with a Thursday night showdown between Brisbane and Collingwood, as both sides look to solidify their spots inside the Top 4 early in the season. Good Friday brings a double-header, with Carlton out to claim consecutive wins when they face the struggling Kangaroos, while later that night the Eagles host the Bombers in Perth, still chasing their first victory of the year. Saturday features another marquee clash as the resurgent Crows look to rebound from back-to-back losses against a formidable GWS outfit. That evening, all eyes will be on Marvel Stadium where Damien Hardwick returns to face his old side—the Tigers—coaching the Suns at a ground he's never hidden his disdain for. Sunday offers two crucial contests where the prize is keeping touch with the Top 8. First, Sydney and Port Adelaide go head-to-head, followed by a fierce battle between the Bulldogs and the Saints. Then, Easter Monday delivers the traditional clash between two bitter rivals, both desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top end of the ladder. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • REPORT: Essendon

      What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.

    • POSTGAME: Essendon

      Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.
