Very lucky the season is suspended.

 

Best news yet

 

I guess if there's any consoliation during these strange and uncertain times, it's that there is and always will be a constant in our lives: the utter ineptness of the Melbourne Football Club.

OMac playing well, at least. Don't think he's lost a contest and has looked far more proactive.


Goodwin is lucky that no coaches can be sacked because there is no money to pay out contracts. There is no discernible system or game plan and skill development is obviously not a priority.

Same old Melbourne they are careless can't hit a target by hand or foot. Viney the only one having a go. DISGRACEFUL! Goodwin is finished.

4 disposals per game?


If Goody mentions 'connection with our fowards' I think I'm going to spew up.

Into his third year now and its still 'chaos ball' (a term I really hated and even moreso when Goody confirmed that's what the game plan was)

He can run all day apparently. 

Season over, AFL have alot to answer for if last nights events are true.

#Pathetic

If we lose this, and the season is cancelled entirely, we would finish winless - which, to be fair, was a distinct possibility if we continued to play like this.

Didn’t think I’d care given the current situation, but geez that was frustrating. Mainly because it’s the exact same way we came undone last year.

Kicking goals would help, but we’ve been slaughtered defensively since Roos walked out the door. Can recruit all the defenders in the world, makes no difference when whatever the team structure is just let’s them waltz down the field at their leisure. 
 

10 haphazard inside 50s v a few open forward line entries with no pressure. Same old same old. 

West Coast a class above. Whenever finals come round, they'll be front and centre, just so much talent from one end to the other.

 

How did the dud centre bounce straight to Naitanui not get recalled? That was just a joke.  

Great to see our skills have improved.  Can't remember the last time we had a side that could do the basics off the game well

  • 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?

  • POSTGAME: Port Adelaide

    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?
