Before this game I thought "Hipwood's just gonna destroy us."

Midway through the 3rd I though "Nah we've done alright."

Hipwood's just destroyed us.

 

[censored] hell Goodwin! You recruited May to play on the big forwards and yet you stick a 4th gamer on him

Atrocious coaching

I’m going to give Gawn a break. Oliver has also been horrible. Dumb handballs, unaccountable, now two way running. 

Our midfield needs an absolute rocket. The worst performance I’ve seen from them all year, which says a lot. 

Spot on. Again with the exception of Gawn, all have been absolutely shizen

    Gus another great example there of playing on at the worst time with NOBODY forward of himself to give off to.  Didnt even assess.  Just manically decided im going to play on no matter what.

    Goody??

    All he had to do was hold up for a couple of seconds and he had a player inside 50 with a paddock to lead in to. Plays on without looking and turns it over. So frustrating, they just have no composure whatsoever

    [censored] off Goodwin. What a hack coach!

    You're happy to write that about Goodwin but oh no Oscar McDonald is off limits?


    Oliver and Brayshaw given a football lesson today. Harmes has played a tagging role but has had little support.

    Why Was Petty still on Hipwood at the start of the fourth. [censored] I'm over Goodwin.

    That pretty much sums up Goody.  I was over him after Rnd 5.

    Team is devoid of skills and poise/polish.  Just the usual crash bash rubbish.

    Goodwin always expects his luck to turn. It takes him far too long to change things up. I don't like saying it, but his gambling addiction mentality hurts us. He's a great assistant and clubman, but senior coach, no.


    There must be some Gold Coast bikies who have threatened the umpires. 

    Well at least I don't have read the trippers on here talking about our finals aspirations anymore.


    Wow Smith.  I can see really why they call you Bull, the way you always compete.

    Tim Smith isn’t afl standard. Time to [censored] him off and bring Pruess in as a tall option and take some pressure off Gawn.

    • GAMEDAY: Richmond

      It's Game Day and the Demons return to the MCG to face the Tigers in their annual Blockbuster on ANZAC Eve for the 10th time. The Dees will be desperate to reignite their stuttering 2025 campaign and claim just their second win of the season. Can the Demons dig deep and find that ANZAC Spirit to snatch back to back wins?

    • PREVIEW: Richmond

      A few years ago, the Melbourne Football Club produced a documentary about the decade in which it rose from its dystopic purgatory of regular thrashings to the euphoria of a premiership victory. That entire period could have been compressed in a fast motion version of the 2025 season to date as the Demons went from embarrassing basket case to glorious winner in an unexpected victory over the Dockers last Saturday. They transformed in a single week from a team that put in a pedestrian effort of predictably kicking the ball long down the line into attack that made a very ordinary Bombers outfit look like worldbeaters into a slick, fast moving side with urgency and a willingness to handball and create play with shorter kicks and by changing angles to generate an element of chaos that yielded six goals in each of the opening quarters against Freo.

    • NON-MFC: Round 07

      Round 7 gets underway in iconic fashion with the traditional ANZAC Day blockbuster. The high-flying Magpies will be looking to solidify their spot atop the ladder, while the Bombers are desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top eight. Later that evening, Fremantle will be out to redeem themselves after a disappointing loss to the Demons, facing a hungry Adelaide side with eyes firmly set on breaking into the top four. Saturday serves up a triple-header of footy action. The Lions will be looking to consolidate their Top 2 spot as they head to Marvel Stadium to clash with the Saints. Over in Adelaide, Port Adelaide will be strong favourites at home against a struggling North Melbourne. The day wraps up with a fiery encounter in Canberra, where the Giants and Bulldogs renew their bitter rivalry. Sunday’s schedule kicks off with the Suns aiming to bounce back from their shock defeat to Richmond, taking on the out of form Swans.Then the Blues will be out to claim a major scalp when they battle the Cats at the MCG. The round finishes with a less-than-thrilling affair between Hawthorn and West Coast at Marvel. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • REPORT: Fremantle

      For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

    • CASEY: UWS Giants

      The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

    • PREGAME: Richmond

      The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?
