    There’s a couple of hours of my life I’ll never get back. I’m glad I know they worked so hard off season as if I didn’t Id swear theyre playing exactly the same way and repeating Exactly the same mistakes. Boring footy. Nothing team. I’m glad I don’t have to watch that [censored] for 10 more weeks.

    Deja Vu! Non existent delivery into a non existent forward line 

    I don’t think it’s an ability issue so much as a structural issue.  I have lost confidence in Goodwin

    Did we learn nothing from the 2018 Prelim ?

    Pickett in his debut was our highest scorer.  Don't know if I should be excited or worried about that???

    5 debutants, jumped at the start and lost by 27 points over in Perth. I'll take it.

    Well it’s good to see we have improved on last season. FMD. 
     

    No spread when defending, bombing it into the f50, missing targets, missing gettable goals and basically playing like we don’t have anything to prove from last season. 
     

    I’m glad the season has been suspended because having to see this [censored] again for another season would be horrendous. 
     

    imo Goodwin has to go. I know it’s an early call but NOTHING has changed from last season.

    Yes   from the last game of 2018, we have learnt nothing about kicking to one of our players inside our forward 50

    Let’s face it, Hibberd, Oscar and Spargo should never play a senior game again.

    Oliver is way ahead of himself. He has become lazy.

    We have no forward line. Tom McDonald is nowhere.

    27 points flattered the [censored] out of us.

    Nothing has changed from last year and now we can't use injuries as an excuse. 

    Today was extremely concerning and very disappointing. 

    Goodwin is in big trouble.

    Pickett, Viney, Lockhart and Bedford were the positives..

    Where was our leaders? McDonald, Jetta, Melksham?

    Hibberd is finished, see ya. And im afraid to say, but Jetta is just about cooked.

    ANB and Spargo are dead set suburban footballers.

    That's the most disappointing thing isn't it, nothing seems to have improved.

    We were never going to win that game. Maybe had a chance if the game was played in Melbourne and game was full length. 

    i50 delivery has not changed but it was never going to in 1 preseason. What’s more worrying is the defensive 50 and two way running effort.

    • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

      The Demons return to the MCG this time as the visiting team where they get another opportunity to put a dent into a team's top 8 placing when they take on the Hawks on Saturday afternoon. Who comes in and who goes out?

      The Demons lacked some polish but showed a lot of heart and took it right up to the Bulldogs in an attempt to spoil their finals hopes ultimately going down by a goal at the MCG.
