Says it all really I thought it was bad but not this bad.

Basket case for so long.

Now is the time to push for a great next decade

Starts now.

No wonder there is pessimism around here. 

 

its better than I thought to be honest , I would have had us and carlton as worst by far

mind you the best team of the decade isn't that much better , whats one grand final win between friends ;) back in 2011 

We were horrible for 5 years of that. Not close to AFL standard. Those days are over.


Who cares. Not sure anyone would have expected any different.

I knew we were bad, but I didn’t think we’d be worse than Carlton. That’s pretty damning. When will we finally come good?! It’s been 50+ years!

2020 is a fresh start. Here’s hoping we show some improvement for [censored] sake.

You Forgot ... apart from 64 the rest of that period was also Dismal!!

With the exception of not winning a premiership I would take the 90s/00s any day over the 10s. 

Agreed we had a good side in the 90s if not for injury to some key players could have pinched a flag, the old what if Schwartz never did his ACL 3 times and Jakovich and his back

Of course.   Id like to see a decades ladder for those two decades though .     I bet we are sill well outside the 8 in both the 90s and 00s.

Gillon Mc has seen this and granted the Dees some compensation.  We will get

1st priority pick in 2020 draft

mid 1st round pick in 2021 draft

exclusive access to Gippsland zone for the next 5 years

Gillon Mc said “for the benefit of the game and the long term strength of the code, we need every team being competitive across many years”  

 

sorry- it was all a dream!! we are not the Suns 

 

 

At least we get our fridge magnets right, unlike team #1.

 


Great reading. Onwards and upwards....again.

Top 2 Wins out of the 74.

Geelong Elimination Final - 2018

WCE Round 22 -2018

Edited by Dee Zephyr

looks pretty similar to the ladder this year.

equalisation my back side

carn Dees, turn it around, we have the cattle


The decennium horribilis!

Am 87 to 91 was all top 4, 2000 are not all bad a grand final, finals in 2000 2002 2004 2005 2006, so, the only decade we need not play finals was 70' s

Just now, don't make me angry said:

If we ran a ladder from the 70's through to now I'm guessing we would be holding the thing up at the bottom.

  • 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.
