I actually think Tmac has provided a genuine round the ground contest.

I agree with the commentatorts (not often mind you) but it has been a very good game. Freo have the capacity to move the ball , lucky when you have Fyffe, Hills and walters. But we just need to mave a bit better (and kick a little better) and not give goals via clangers in the middle of the ground. Gee we are lucky that one of the MacDonalds did not do the stuff ups that lead to goals in 1st Q

 

Ive got the answer!!!!

Send Bitters down to training with his cat o' nine tails and give Goodwin a jolly good.

    Just think his confidence is shot.

    you dont think hes carrying something, more than a niggle ? I do

    I dont believe one iota of the rubbish that emanates from DeeHQ.

    Last year we managed to drive half the team into the ground . Thats why many arent out there. Tmac was injured...i'll lay london to  brick hes getting jabbed just to play the mediocre rubbish currently on display...No wonder he plays like he does. He KNOWS he cant give it 100% He's persisted with , imho, because there really arent too may options.

    We're quite a dumb club unfortunately  , currently reaping what we sowed.

    Quite simply ...he cant perform as he was...because he cant. He knows it, must be soul destroying. That said...he's not doing himself any favours.

    I’ll be so pleased to see Hannan & Wagner out of the Team. 

    Lockhart is the big story thus far. 

    Wags & Petty couldnt win it between them.  See Lever & Hibberd

    Holy f  k and chit and then it is followed up by one of the worst pieces of totally Melb play I have ever seen!!!! Worked it up the ground really well to then pizz fart around with it around the 50 for Freo pressure to turn it over and then they push it down the ground for a terrible turn over goal.

    That Wagner fumble in the forward line directly resulted in the Fremantle goal there. Wagners are kryptonite for smooth fast-handball chains.

    Hannan's been out for months.  He'll be fine with another game or so under his belt to find his touch and match fitness

      As the Demons head into their Bye Round, it's time to turn our attention to the other matches being played. Which teams are you tipping this week? And which results would be most favourable for the Demons if we can manage to turn our season around? Follow all the non-Melbourne games here and join the conversation as the ladder continues to take shape.

    • REPORT: Port Adelaide

      Of course, it’s not the backline, you might argue and you would probably be right. It’s the boot studder (do they still have them?), the midfield, the recruiting staff, the forward line, the kicking coach, the Board, the interchange bench, the supporters, the folk at Casey, the head coach and the club psychologist  It’s all of them and all of us for having expectations that were sufficiently high to have believed three weeks ago that a restoration of the Melbourne team to a position where we might still be in contention for a finals berth when the time for the midseason bye arrived. Now let’s look at what happened over the period of time since Melbourne overwhelmed the Sydney Swans at the MCG in late May when it kicked 8.2 to 5.3 in the final quarter (and that was after scoring 3.8 to two straight goals in the second term).

    • CASEY: Essendon

      Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

    • PREGAME: Gold Coast

      The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

    • POSTGAME: Port Adelaide

      The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
