We are the worst coached team in the league over the past 18 months.

This is [censored] awful.

    That scratch match last week really did us wonders. Ready for 2021 already

    We're just not good enough' we waste chances and they take theirs. Bottom 4 for us' everything looks so hard.

    Getting him has set our club back.

    He's a hack

    Geelong have a plan about chipping the ball around and drawing us out, and then going quickly once they can.

    We rely solely on explosive brilliance from someone, or else we go long down the line. It’s simply not a plan and there’s only one person to blame, and that’s the coach. It’s been 18 months of utter garbage.

    It was clear we sucked when our b team got point aways from beating our a team. 

    Why do we always look less disciplined and unorganised than every other team? Simple things like killing the ball in the backline or being aware of the players in the area you are protecting. We look lost, confused, lacking in confidence and have a horrible inability to use our instincts.

     

    somehow we make every kick in an impossible equation while letting every kick in against us a gift.

     

    i have to think it’s in the way we train. Players look stunned on game day. Some of these guys once had instinct and used it. Are they being over coached or poorly coached? It’s horrible to watch

    Remember 2 years ago when Melb V Geelong games were electric and fun and competitive?

    You know, before we lost all confidence and gave up?

    Disgraceful quarter. We are in no mans land. We have no game plan. No purpose. No stars. We just float in obscurity where we belong. 
     

    2018 was an utter fluke.

    yeah he's playing with himself if he thinks he's AFL standard 

    he's done for mine 

    We’re now the worst team in the league over 2019-2020. Even Gold Coast and Carlton have more wins than us!

    We need drastic change. Those who believe we can continue on our current path and find success are delusional.

    We need to acquire some natural forwards, no more in between flanker mid types. Pickett is about the only natural forward we have and it shows.

    • 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?
