Big loss coming up...we are awful!

No skills and no system...so difficult to watch. Pressure should be on the coaching staff

    this is 100% structural. we do the same [censored] thing every single time. EVERY SINGLE TIME. we then get absolutely smoked on the transition against decent teams. This is a football lesson.

    Goodwin is out of his element coaching at AFL level. This is 90s-era football being coached in a completely different football era.

    I'd say 50% structural, 50% skill level.

    If we hit our easy targets like other teams did, we wouldn't be under this pressure all the time.

    Well I have to admit our game plan is #£*^%&$)@ awesome. 
     

    Extend Goodies contract for another 5 years. 
     

    GO U GOOD THINGS ???

    Oliver had a lone Petracca to kick to. Elects to do some other rubbish. He lacks brains. 


    What coaches are available? Ross Lyon? Goodwin is clearly not taking us where we need to go.

    Get Roos on the phone please. This is done.

    Playing teams into form for how long now? Also what happened to Oliver? He was better as a 17 year old than he is now. Brayshaw not far behind


    Is Goodwin ever on the phone trying to change things up? Giving players a spray or motivation? Why can’t I get paid to sit in his spot!!

    he isn’t doing anything ffs. Do something! Make a change!! This isn’t working!!

    When the heat's turned up we can rarely find a target forward.  And on cue Fritschkreig marks lol

     

    The best spoil May has made all day was a Melbourne player.

    • PREVIEW: 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.
