How does the coaching staff justify Smith in the side? 

Say the same about the staff.

    God I hate the camera shots of that zombie in our coach’s box.

    Spot on.  Some fool on here will blame Joel Smith for the smother goal, however, under no pressure Oliver handballs it on his shoelaces and the defensive forwards of Richmond thrive on that type of error. 

    I've been taking notice of Oliver,  and to a lesser extent Braysaw over the last few weeks.   Oli consistently flicks the ball off and when the ball leaves the area he stops.

    When Oliver has to tackle, often the tackle slips off.  Allowing the opponent away.

    So many of Oliver's physical efforts at opposition are impotent.

     

    He has allowed his game and efforts since 2018 to just jog along, like he does.

    He needs a big attitude change.

    The bright side is that because our Essendon match was postponed this is not season ending.... yet

    Yes it is DJ. Well if finals is our goal.


     

    Simon has his bag packed but he won't be leaving the building.

    Well we've done our good deed for the next team playing the tigs.

    They are all the walking wounded.

    Fritsch has been poor, cost us multiple times with poor disposal especially early

    Agree MFM. He's got huge tickets on himself and is just about our laziest player. He could be a much better footballer, but he chooses not to be.

    Actually a lot to like about this game.

    So much better than last week.

    Because I knew we had lost at selection I've been able to enjoy the good parts of the game.

    1-4... we are alive..just

    1-5.... no chance

    So obviously Smith out for omac next week

    Weid and Jones in for Melksham and Vandenberg

    Jones in for Viney

    Brian friggin Taylor and the fake crowd’s over the top efforts to inject some excitement into this rubbish is just plain insulting.

    • PREGAME: Sydney

      Just a game and percentage outside the Top 8, the Demons return to Melbourne to face the Sydney Swans at the MCG, with a golden opportunity to build on the momentum from toppling the reigning premiers on their own turf. Who comes in, and who makes way?

    • GAMEDAY: Brisbane

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons are back on the road with a massive challenge ahead — facing the reigning premiers, the Brisbane Lions, at their Gabba fortress. The Lions are licking their wounds after a shock draw in Tasmania last week, while Melbourne’s season hangs in the balance. Can the Dees defy the odds and pull off a miracle to keep their razor thin finals hopes alive?

    • NON-MFC: Round 10

      The Sir Doug Nicholls Round kicks off in Darwin with a Top 4 clash between the Suns and the Hawks. On Friday night the Swans will be seeking to rebound from a challenging start to the season, while the Blues have the Top 8 in their sights after their sluggish start. Saturdays matches kick off with a blockbuster between the Collingwood and Kuwarna with the Magpies looking to maintain their strong form and the Crows aiming to make a statement on the road. The Power face a difficult task to revive their season against a resilient Cats side looking to make amends for their narrow loss last week. The Giants aim to reinforce their top-eight status, while the Dockers will be looking to break the travel hoodoo. The sole Saturday game is a critical matchup for both teams, as the Bulldogs strive to cemet their spot in the top six and the Bombers desperately want break into the 8. Sundays start with a bottom 3 clash between the Tigers and Kangaroos with both teams wanting to avoid the being in wooden spoon contention. The Round concludes with the Eagles still searching for their first win of the season, while the Saints look to keep their finals hopes alive with a crucial away victory. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?
