15 inside 50s in a row to Saints now when the game is on the line. That’s pathetic effort from us. Our defensive structures and transition is diabolical.

I’m convinced now that Goodwin needs to go. He’s been outcoached yet again with Saints able to isolate players etc. shocking coaching effort and the take of his coaching career thus far.

    Goodwin said we have a lot to play for. He is about as useful as Frost kicking a football. 

    There's a lot to play for every game (for good footy clubs).

    We're 17th.

    Imagine losing to this spud of a club twice in two years.

    Imagine beating them only 3 times in 13 [censored] years.

    14 inside 50s in a row to the Saints.

    [censored]. Pathetic.

    How about twice in 14 games!!!

    Looking forward to the post game thread where apologists will make excuse and tell us everything will be great next season.

    Do umpires pay throws any more? I know we're terrible but .... preseason has to focus on fitness, skills and defense....again. this season needs to hurt.

    Goodwin cannot make a pathetic little speech after the game tonight. He needs to go. Last year Brisbane were down the ladder but you could see them building. Our team is not building. They’re demolishing any hope.

    If you polled DL as to who is our best kick I am confident most would pick Salem. You wouldn’t, that’s fine. 

    BTW who do you think is a better kick than Salem?

    As I said.
    if you think dinky 20m passes are Gold.
    Good for you.
    That last 15m lob was a ripper eh.

    Their tackling has killed us. Just a rubbish side we are.

    80 something points conceded on turn over.

    another last qtr fade out. Just [censored] off

    What planet are you on? We are down by 13, now 19 points and they're peppering the 50m arc

    I was talking about the umps finding a non existent free to them when it should have been paid to us.

    If only 

    But doubt the budget handles a 4 year payout

    nah... it's only three more and the alternative is a massive revenue loss

    Wow we are lazy. I'd drop 10 of them. Don't care who comes up from Casey

    I think this is the tipping point now.

    They will start to come after him now.


    Hahahahahaha

    ANB's handball sums up our season perfectly!

    Notice how they are always absent on the actual game day thread.

    I dare anyone with any shred of integrity to defend this ****.

    Its not good enough.

    This ain’t Goodwins fault. This is on the players

    It’s both. Goodwin’s game plan isn’t good enough. His match ups don’t work and he doesn’t make changes. We are defensively poor and have been all year. That is on him. 

    Our players lack run and skills. That’s on them. But we have been so badly outcoached this year and that is on Goodwin. 

    No good Dees

    Our poor skills killed us. Nothing else.

    • NON-MFC: Round 06

      The Easter Round kicks off in style with a Thursday night showdown between Brisbane and Collingwood, as both sides look to solidify their spots inside the Top 4 early in the season. Good Friday brings a double-header, with Carlton out to claim consecutive wins when they face the struggling Kangaroos, while later that night the Eagles host the Bombers in Perth, still chasing their first victory of the year. Saturday features another marquee clash as the resurgent Crows look to rebound from back-to-back losses against a formidable GWS outfit. That evening, all eyes will be on Marvel Stadium where Damien Hardwick returns to face his old side—the Tigers—coaching the Suns at a ground he's never hidden his disdain for. Sunday offers two crucial contests where the prize is keeping touch with the Top 8. First, Sydney and Port Adelaide go head-to-head, followed by a fierce battle between the Bulldogs and the Saints. Then, Easter Monday delivers the traditional clash between two bitter rivals, both desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top end of the ladder. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • REPORT: Essendon

      What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.

    • POSTGAME: Essendon

      Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.
