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: Hawthorn

      Melbourne and Hawthorn who face off against each other this week have more in common than having once almost merged and about to wear a blue jumper with a red v triangle and an embroidered picture of a bird on the front.  They also share the MCG as their main home ground, their supporters are associated with the leafy suburbs of Melbourne and in recent times, James Frawley graced the colours of both teams. Even more recently, both have bounced back from disastrous five game losing streaks to start off a season. Of course, the Hawks turned their bounce into a successful leap from the bottom of the ladder into a finals appearance, making it to the semifinals in 2024 and this year, they’re riding high in third place on the AFL table. The Demons are just three games into their 2025 bounce back, and are yet to climb their way out of the bottom four although they are sitting a game and percentage out of the top eight. However, with the current sportsbet odds of $3.90 to win this week’s encounter, it seems a forlorn hope that their upward progression will continue much longer.

    • REPORT: West Coast

      On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.
