I just said I would prefer 2 of Tim Kelly, Liam Ryan, Petrucelli or Stocker instead of Lever. Not sure where you got that I was rating him. Those r the players we missed out on by taking Lever.

I understand your opinion, here's mine:

Kelly- going home

Ryan- massive flight risk

Petrucelle- bog average skills

Stocker- hardly played, dury out

Hibbo the easiest turnover you’ll see. Honestly we are painful 

That was pitiful.

Pies have scored from our pathetic 9 turnovers. Maybe Goodwin can answer why we have such poorly skilled playing group? What’s our so called great development that Mcartny says we have .. it’s laughable

Only listening to radio.  Cant watch anymore with the likes of JKH, Oscar & Gus destroying things.

Sounds like we are back to being turnover kings and a shambles and are only capable of staying in or ahead in a match for one quarter or so at best.

If Goodwin cant get us close to a half baked Pies team with almost no forward line with 19 rounds behind the team he should walk now and save us the embarrassment for the last few rounds and for the [censored] storm that will be next season.

Clean half this shitty list out, put anyone in who has half a coaching brain in (Ratten?) and start again in 2020.

Goody is destroying this club and the careers of at least half a dozen or so very good players with every week that goes by.

Roos anointed the wrong man in a rush out the door.  What a pitty.

And our forward line is brimming with talent atm is it?

Good! Viney is a [censored] footballer. Plays only one way and that's rugby union style trying to run thro ugh everyone.

0 tackles for Jones in the last 2 matches. Not going to win when our captain is producing [censored] like that. Completely in self preservation mode.

0 pressure whatsoever, whoever is on Jones knows he isn’t at risk of being caught.

We might be the turnover kings...

... But at least we're KINGS!

(Sorry, I don't have much else positive to say after that quarter).

Hahahaha Hibberd

Watched Hunt run and create an option for Hibberd only to be burnt again for a stupid little inside trick move. Horrible.

Yep chaos ball. Goodwin’s brilliant game plan which hasn’t worked for a year and relies on winning every clearance and skills we do not possess such as kicking, handballing and foot speed.

We should actually trade Jack Viney. I have no idea what he offers us.

He needs to be dumped from Captaincy as a last ditch effort to wake him up and become a footballer again.

Agree, try get a late first rounder from Port if we lucky.

Regardless of anything else, bottom handful are under where they need to be. Melksham (OK, coming back from injury), but Dunkley, Baker, JKH not giving enough and/or turning the ball over.

How to beat the Dees in 2019?

1. Put pressure on the Dees

2. Dees turn it over

3. You kick a goal

Simples.

Hibberd inability to hit a Target is mind boggling.

Its like ground hog day every week .

Big effort in the first , then skills constantly let us down and it’s chasing backsides all day after that.

Vney needs to watch someone like Trent Cotchin on how to play the game and lead his team.

Our complete inability to change game plans and respond to a team changing tactics on show here. 

A few players have been very average,  but no attempt to change things up. Move trac into the middle for [censored] sake.

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo. The play start time was brought forward from the initial 11am bounce, due to the high temperatures forecast.  The match sim will consist of four 25-minute qu
