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.

    • REPORT: Port Adelaide

      Of course, it’s not the backline, you might argue and you would probably be right. It’s the boot studder (do they still have them?), the midfield, the recruiting staff, the forward line, the kicking coach, the Board, the interchange bench, the supporters, the folk at Casey, the head coach and the club psychologist  It’s all of them and all of us for having expectations that were sufficiently high to have believed three weeks ago that a restoration of the Melbourne team to a position where we might still be in contention for a finals berth when the time for the midseason bye arrived. Now let’s look at what happened over the period of time since Melbourne overwhelmed the Sydney Swans at the MCG in late May when it kicked 8.2 to 5.3 in the final quarter (and that was after scoring 3.8 to two straight goals in the second term).

    • CASEY: Essendon

      Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

    • PREGAME: Gold Coast

      The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

      The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
