If you want to see how to do a club rebuild look at the Lions. Go out and get a gun midfielder and recruit a spine. Get a legend Hodge to teach kids what it about. Get a coach from a winning culture. Compare that to us we recruit a coach from the druggies. Say it all

Fagan spent 8 years coaching at Melbourne around our 2000 grand final appearance, is that the winning culture you were talking about?

[censored] me Salem is the only player in this team who should kick a football. 

Who the [censored] is on Zorko? What is the setup? How are our coaches not under pressure?

North lost their coach and are above us on the ladder? Richardson under pressure but St Kilda are also ahead of us. So how then is Goodwin not copping it for this rubbish season?

Fair question...but want get sacked as just signed....

 

That jumper pull on Oliver was right in front of the umpire. [censored] off Nick Foote you [censored]

Will he ever cop any pressure for his terrible coaching? Lack of game plan? Poor set up? Stupid team selections? 

How is Goodwin beyond criticism?


Aaaaaaand that’s me switching off much like Melbourne for the last 5min of the 3rd quarter until now.

Why the [censored] is Weid jogging to the ball when it’s kicked to him inside 50?

Saw this, he does it a lot, as soon as he thinks his out of initial contest he calls it quits instead of pushing to still make a contest of it. Who the [censored] does he think is going to mop it when it lands when his still the closest player? Lazy player

 

Recruiters? I am really fed up with the coach too!

Phark this footy club.

Weak.

Pathetic.

Embarrasing.

Laughing stock.

What else?

Umm...

Shameful

No I just think the terms weak, pathetic, embarrassing, laughing stocks and shameful ought to do it.

[censored] them!


Just gave up. Can’t mark, can’t defend, can’t kick a goal without them kicking one back. Another win we just [censored] away. I’m cooking dinner now. Not eating late to witness this pitiful effort

really hope lessons are learned.

Why is Gawn on the ground? Doesn’t appear 100%. 

You missed the ankle injury 

Baker showing why he was delisted from Brisbane without getting a game. Looks a mile off it and has been caught more times than any player I can remember.

Get Gawn off the field. He’s clearly injured so why bother risking making the injury worse!

Lions 2 injuries, means you field your best team.

We’re playing guys like Hore, Hannan, T Smith, Baker, Petty who just aren’t  good enough at the moment.

Also why do so Melbourne players fly for the mark both ends and nobody roves the pack!


The only players worthy of today's paycheck. Salem and Fristch because of their use he foot, and May and Frost down back. Jones also did some good things. The rest rubbish, skills and decisions.

cant mark cant kick .not being coached .cant mark

Zero chance of that. That would require Goodwin to actually have a plan B.

No I saw the ankle injury. I fear another Joel Smith scenario

At least they are playing Gawn deep forward and not in the ruck. 

The NQR teasers that will never make the grade to a premiership cup....

On the fringe...

Weid

Hunt

Jones (end of an era?)

You might care to check he was at Hawthorn when they won three flags in a row

  • PODCAST: Gold Coast

    I’ll be away for the next few weeks, so Binman will be holding the fort for our podcasts covering the Suns, Bombers and Lions matches. As a result, there will be no live podcasts during this period, and we won’t be taking calls or voicemails. Binman will still be dipping into this thread to select a few questions to answer, while also combining the long-form Stats Files podcast with the Demonland Podcast for these shows. Your questions and comments are a huge part of what makes the podcast work, so please post anything you’d like to ask or say below and we’ll do our best to give you a shout-out on the show. Please try to keep each post focused on one specific topic or player to make podcast preparation a little easier. If you have multiple topics you’d like to raise, please put them in separate posts.

  • PREVIEW: Gold Coast

    Melbourne’s slow starts have been a troubling theme for a while. Against the Suns, they started slowly in both of their games, they trailed by 5.7.37 to 0.1.1 at quarter time at Peoples First Stadium in Round 16. This season, the story has remained the same and if the Demons fail to shake off this issue against the unbeaten Gold Coast Suns, they will be in serious danger of capitulating once again in their Easter Sunday showdown.
