the first time we go long and direct we score a goal.

We consistently handball 1-2 times too many.

    Hot garbage. Lucky they can’t kick and keeping us in it. 

    Headless chickens.

    Not really. We're winning most contests. the problem is we spud it up across half forward and gift them 2-3 easy marks and entry.

    Just wait until Cox turns it up. 

    Must be watching a different game to you because I’m not seeing us win most contests at all.

    Agree on Cox though.

    Another embarrassing goalless quarter coming up. Insane how we can go from highest scoring team to lowest scoring team over one offseason. Pathetic that the coaches haven’t sorted it out yet. Can’t win a game if you don’t score! 

    Don’t worry Goodwin has 4 more years to not fix anything.

    You line up at the opening centre bounce with Jones on one wing and Spargo on the other. I just cannot fathom it.

    More space in our forward line please.

    Lever looking ok.

    I think we will win 2nd qrt.

    Fritz has really gone backwards. 

    Nice to see a bigger body than omac down back.

    Whatever result, clear that May and Lever will make us a considerably better team.

    by this time next year Goodwin wont be our coach. We are just biding time....wasting time!

     

    The people critical of vineys leadership and bad disposal the same calling for Gawn to be captain he started  the chain of handball clangers with a 1 metre handball miss at the first clearance

    In one quarter of footy we managed to display every type of skill error it is possible to execute on a footy field. 

    The backline would not want to be judged by the same standards as applied to Oscar McDonald.

    Collingwood playing like last year's grand finalists.

    Why is it allowed for Grundy to pull the back of Gawn’s jumper everytime at ball ups? Blatant holding. Same thing happened numerous times last game.

    That last bit of play was unbearable.

    You had Hannan streaming out of the square for a lead, a PADDOCK in front of him and Harmes decides to kick long to the goal square..

    We wouldn’t beat Carlton or GC17 the way we are playing

    No one can hit a target, midfielders don’t work defensively, we are slow on transition and look completely devoid of any skill whatsoever 

    Its last year’s QB all over again 

    Our backline are killing though.

    • REPORT: Geelong

      I was disappointed to hear Goody say at his post match presser after the team’s 39 point defeat against Geelong that "we're getting high quality entry, just poor execution" because Melbourne’s problems extend far beyond that after its 0 - 4 start to the 2025 football season. There are clearly problems with poor execution, some of which were evident well before the current season and were in play when the Demons met the Cats in early May last year and beat them in a near top-of-the-table clash that saw both sides sitting comfortably in the top four after round eight. Since that game, the Demons’ performances have been positively Third World with only five wins in 19 games with a no longer majestic midfield and a dysfunctional forward line that has become too easy for opposing coaches to counter. This is an area of their game that is currently being played out as if they were all completely panic-stricken.

    • PREGAME: Essendon

      Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

    • NON-MFC: Round 04

      Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

    • POSTGAME: Geelong

      The Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, falling to 0–4 after a more spirited showing against the Cats at Kardinia Park. Despite the improved effort, they went down by 39 points, and the road ahead is looking increasingly grim.
