    Our new recruits look above our normal class and effort which is positive.

    Don't worry horse, we'll drain that out of them in no time.

    Despite the woeful first half, if we’re still in the game at 3/4 time, I think we’ll run over the top of them

    The scary thing is we are still in the game. I don't think we could be much worse than we have been. Viney is the only one that can hold their head up high. Our pressure is non existent and we have fumbled and been careless with the ball. Is it time to drop Brayshaw he's been pathetic.

    pickett looks good, a few better signs but need  alot more effort.  Im not sure if its the system the coach wants to play or our players are dumb but we really suck at times.

    My mates in our messenger group:

    “How funny was that“

    “Who is that Gumby in the back line”
     

     “There he is”

    no guesses Who they’re referring to.

    They look totally flat. 
     

    I think the decision coming before the game got inside our heads. 
     

    They probably don’t believe it/not focused. 
     

    Just going through the motions. 

    Players look too hot and bothered. Someone please give them some silk fans.

    Simply too slow for our gameplay.

    We know it's going to come in quick with the way we play. I've never been a fan, but I'm sure another team (or a different game plan) would suit him much better.

    Given we are flush with inside mids who can butcher the ball, why not trade him?

    Gotta give something to get something.

    Yet West Coast are switched on.

    The opposition always fire up

    We don’t. 
     

    Stop with the MFC excuses

    This is actually a quintessential Goodwin coached game. Still holding on for dear life to a 2018 gameplan. We don't know whether we're coming or going.

    Spargo and OMac definitely have some compromising photos of Goodwin... 

    Charlie having another blinder

    2 x kicks to eagles palyers

    1 x kick missed the target

    1 x 50 metre penalty

    Oh and 1 mark

    I will go to the grave, hopefully soon if this is the best we can do afetr a solid pre season, not understanding how he gets a game. He is a project player that was unsuccessful- time to move on

    We got rid of Frosty & kept OMac. FMD.

    OMac has actually been one of our better players! Take off the blinkers.

    Difference between a truly professional organisation and ours Clint. They don't accept mediocrity, it's seemingly all we know.

    Spargo can't kick & Hibbert just wants to bang it long & high. Nothing has changed from last season. Still a rabble.


    Gawny appears to be protecting his knee. He has no spring and is avoiding contact with man mountain Natanui.

    I don't blame Max. One game is not worth getting injured for, but the ease of WC clearances from the centre has killed us just as much as our witches hat game plan.

    Disappointing. I was hoping to watch this game fir the next 10 weeks. Can't even watch it for the next 10 minutes.

    The players can now see where they are at compared to a Top 6 team. Miles off the skills required.

     

    looking at the brights side, all recruits except Brown at this stage, playing well. Kossie is a Jet. And i put $10 at 11:1 on Viney to get +30 disposalsdisposals

    • PREGAME: Western Bulldogs

      With only 3 games to go, all against Top 8 fancies, the Demons face a daunting task as they return to the MCG when they play the Western Bulldogs. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      The Demons return to town fresh off a thumping win over the back-to-back wooden spooners, the West Coast Eagles, played in front of a sparse crowd at Marvel Stadium, the same venue that hosted last week's heartbreaking loss.

    • 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.
