Not a Oscar fan, but that was a great kick and poor defending by us. Or plugins the gap, it was the only place to lead.

yep

no one filled the gap which was appalling defensive footy, but the legrope was way too long

saints dominated last 5-10 minutes

 

We are so bad

Oscar was 5 metres to the side and 2 metres behind his opponent.

    Too many dumb clangers (Jones the main culprit) and too many lack the ability to go with their man once we lose possession.

    Too many at the coal face also as usual.  Smashed on the outlier by the Saints maintaining structure on the outside and not sending as many to the contest.

    I can only deduce this is a coaching issue as pretty much all other teams get this part of the game.

    [censored] woeful. Get [censored] with this [censored] Goodwin. Honestly this is a disgrace and we should be ashamed of this display. 

    That wasnt a mark

     

    Take me back to the first two minutes of the game!

    Umps giving St Kilda an armchair ride. That last one was not a mark.

    Our defensive setup is deplorable. Everyone running around pointing like they know what they’re covering, while the opposition just chips it around for 2 minutes until they get a shot 20 out. 

     

    Neal Bullen does absolutely everything wrong. I’ve never seen a player with a more negative effect.

    Hunt is the slowest “speedster” in the game. And he does not chase at any sort of speed, just meanders around the ground.


    The Saints smashed us that quarter. People attacking our defensive setup but if not for your backline we'd be 5-6 goals down.

    Are we the first team to lead at half time without their midfield getting a touch?

    We are a joke. So easy to score against. Ratten is running rings around Goodwin by nullifying our midfield. Skills woeful. Too many third rate players.

    Defensive setup across the ground

    Phew, lucky the Saints aren't a better side. If so, we'd be 30 points down at half time.

     

    It is purely the disposal. We get it and turn it over.

    We are the worst skilled side in the AFL by a mile.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
