Never. Going. To. Happen.

Were on a "journey" and are building a "brand" remember?

    Goodwin is safe for 2020  (cause we cannot pay him out and just has enough credits in bank for 2020 but will be under enormous pressure next year.

    Fun fact: Every team that has sacked their coach is above us on the ladder.

    *Potentially can included Adelaide in that if you believe the rumours.

    I hope Bartlett says he’s disgusted with the coaches.

    He won't though. He'll talk about all the progress we're making, then be really vague about the changes he, as coach, made during the game.

    Thought we'd get up for this one :(

    Boy, some work to do. 

    Also, no Bruce and Carlisle and saints lose that game.

    They scored 82 points from turnovers.

    How do you win games of footy giving them 14 goals?

    Shell of a team. Hard to know what to say.

    The forward line we had out there today didn't have a single established forward, yet alone a key forward. Throw into that players like Baker, the Wagners and an underdone backline and that's about what you get. Lever's 3 clear kicks out from the back line that ended up with the opposition about summed up where we are. 

    Their 13.6 from our turnovers says it all.

    Hard to see too many positives. Oliver, to his credit, worked his way back into it. Petracca and Fritsch were very good for a half, Harmes did OK when moved forward, Max was Max ... apart from that, struggling.

    Imagine this, if Dew got sacked, the Suns would probably win a few games and you know where that leaves us!

    Reading the game day thread it sounds like O Mac was the reason for the loss. Then I remember I watched the game and we were shithouse Bar a few. 

    After the first 5 minutes the saints dominated all aspects of the game. They should have won by 30. And they have 8 of their best 22 out injured. 

    Go [censored] yourselves demons. I’m sick of this [censored]!!

    The worst loss of the year. On the back of last weeks talk and the quality of opposition (or lack thereof) it was a pathetic effort. The lack of care in disposal, decision making and accountability were just horrible. Half these blokes would struggle at A grade ammo's let alone AFL with the pathetic skill levels. Just embarrassing really. 

    After all these years, its hard not to care, but I'd like to be able to forget they exist and the  AFL for that matter. That was another dog awful standard! The audacity to ask for upgrade's for seats and memberships for the next 3 games when they serve up that [censored] week on week  this season, they can go EAD.

    Is it really going to matter. We have destroyed that many 1st round picks that it will just be part of the norm at MFC.

    OSCAR McDonald, Wagner's, ANB get the [censored] out of this football club you spuds!

    I have been a Goodwin but not anymore! I am done!

    Nothing positive to come put of this dreadful performance. 

    I reckon they were the three I identified as well Dazzle. McDonald how no reason to be wearing a Melbourne jumper. The Wagners are pointless in terms of us going forward and ANB is seemingly in reverse.

    may be a win against swans  but really doubt that we will win another game which is shattering..  what else is new

    Omac is well qualified to wear a Melbourne  jumper.

    No improvement tonight at all. Goody better not use the improvement line. 

    Won’t win another game this year.

    We may get the number 2 pick. This is not going to solve the problem. It is much deeper than that

    I love a scapegoat as much as the next bloke, but OMac was fine tonight.

    Goody on the other hand.

    Is Goodwin running drills of handballing blindly out of defence? 

    Also - We've had a season to sort some kind of system going inside, regardless of who's down there.

    Must hunt someone who is capable at the wheel - NOW!

    One player will not make that much difference  we need  at least 3 good new players

    I think this is the worst I've felt since the Need days. Being there brought back all the damaging memories of those days.

     

    I hope the leadership of the club knows the damage that's being done.

    • PREVIEW: West Coast

      It was bad enough that the Melbourne Football Club created yet another humiliating scenario inside its wretched season at Marvel Stadium last Sunday, but the final insult is that it has been commanded to return to the scene of the crime to inflict further punishment on its fans this week. Incidentally, if this match preview, of a game that promises to be one of the most unattractive fixtures in the history of the game, happens to cut out of your computer screen three quarters of the way through, it’s no coincidence. I’ll be mirroring the Demons’ lacklustre effort against St Kilda from last Sunday when they conceded the largest last quarter turnaround for victory in the history of the game.

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.

    • CASEY: Sandringham

      The Casey Demons rebounded from a sluggish start to manufacture a decisive win against Sandringham in the final showdown, culminating a quarter century of intense rivalry between the fluctuating alignments of teams affiliated with AFL clubs Melbourne and St Kilda, as the Saints and the Zebras prepare to forge independent paths in 2026. After conceding three of the first four goals of the match, the Demons went on a goal kicking rampage instigated by the winning ruck combination of Tom Campbell with 26 hitouts, 26 disposals and 13 clearances and his apprentice Will Verrall who contributed 20 hitouts. This gave first use of the ball to the likes of Jack Billings, Bayley Laurie, Riley Bonner and Koltyn Tholstrup who was impressive early. By the first break they had added seven goals and took a strong grip on the game. The Demons were well served up forward early by Mitch Hardie and, as the game progressed, Harry Sharp proved a menace with a five goal performance. Emerging young forwards Matthew Jefferson and Luker Kentfield kicked two each but the former let himself down with some poor kicking for goal.
      Young draft talent Will Duursma showed the depth of his talent and looks well out of reach for Melbourne this year. Kalani White was used sparingly and had a brief but uneventful stint in the ruck.

      The Demons return to the scene of the crime on Saturday to face the wooden spooners the Eagles at the Docklands. Who comes in and who goes out? Like moving deck chairs on the Titanic.
