The only meaningful contest today will be doomsayers versus turd polishers in the post game thread.

Hibberd has actually been good since coming back into the team

Fritsch is so much better when played as a high half forward. The problem is that we still have not a single marking forward inside 50. Why they refuse to play Weid is beyond me.

Ultimately? Yes.

His game plan allows super quick kicks to come into our defence.

He picked Smith when he clearly isn't ready. 

No, it was combination of errors forward of The ball, all good to blame the coach when Oliver gives a terrible ball

Terrible kick from Oliver before but he's not the problem. The commentators on Fox and 7 have gunned for him all day. He's won a heap of contested possessions.

Disagree. He’s been average at best. Disposals have been all over the place.

Think he was spent. He clearly wanted to turn this game around and was busting a nut in the last quarter. Was happy with his intent today to be honest.

Hibberd best game in 2 yrs

Was very good last week also.  If only all our blokes played with his manic attack and endeavour.

This club just continues to bring misery to its members ... we continue to go backwards! Clearly Goodwin has a game plan which isn’t working & hate to say but we will witness another wasted list of players & another decade of nothingness!

Clayton Oliver? Jack Viney? Jake Melksham? Jake Lever? Christian Salem? Tomlinson? Simon Goodwin? All auditioning for string quartet on the SS Titanic.

It all statrs from the middle the bounce.

If we start cleanly with composure, it rolls on.

If we start with a panic ball that t rolls on.

 

Oliver is starting us off in a panic.

I’m angry.

Angry that this drivel is served up week after week .

Our recruiting and coaching philosophy is win the contested ball and the rest will happen.

Well let me tell ya.

It ain’t happening!

Why is it Goodwin's fault when every player bar maybe Hibberd made a fundamental skill error that sometimes resulted in a goal to the opposition

The first two hit outs of the last quarter were won by max Gawn. Viney bombs the first result in to a Richmond player. The second was also bombed in to a Richmond player. This coach has got to tell them to stop doing that.

Get Clarkson. That’s what the $mill before Christmas ? needs to be

Otherwise we continue to be nothing

He wont be coming to coach this rabble SW.  But we certainly need to get our hands on a coach who can coach (Lyon?), along with a genuine KF (Cameron).

Its his lack of movement.

He will not run and move enough,  kicks off a step,  etc.  He's lazy.

It looks like he’s keen to get rid of the ball as quickly as possible like it’s a hot potato.

I quite like Goody actually. I just hate his current gameplan. I pray he changes it.

Exactly, and his direction of the ball s either low to feet, or high,  above the head.

He's too cocky by half, and has stopped putting in his old physical work.  That hit on Selwood back in 2018 final,  where Bt and everyone said,  "boy oh boy, did you see that",..... nothing since from Oli.

He is the one coaching them and it’s not getting any better .

Ultimately it rests with him.

    POSTGAME: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    Once again inaccuracy and inefficiency going inside 50 rears it's ugly head as the Demons suffered their second loss on the trot and their fourth loss in five games as they go down to the Pies by 38 points on Kings Birthday at the MCG.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    It's Game Day and the Demons are once again faced with a classic 8 point game against a traditional rival on King's Birthday at the MCG. A famous victory will see them reclaim a place in the Top 8 whereas a loss will be another blow for their finals credentials.

    BOILED LOLLIES by The Oracle

    In the space of a month Melbourne has gone from chocolates to boiled lollies in terms of its standing as a candidate for the AFL premiership.  The club faces its moment of truth against a badly bruised up Collingwood at the MCG. A win will give it some respite but even then, it won’t be regarded particularly well being against an opponent carrying the burden of an injured playing list. A loss would be a disaster. The Demons have gone from a six/two win/loss ratio and a strong percentag

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an

    ALAS SPRINGS by Whispering Jack

    I got the word on Saturday from someone who knows someone inside the Fremantle camp that the Dockers were pumped and supremely confident about getting the W the next day against Melbourne at TIO Traeger Park in the red heart of the country. I was informed that the Dockers were extremely confident for a number of reasons. They had beaten the Demons on their home territory at the MCG at their last two meetings so they didn’t see beating them at Alice Springs as a problem. They belie

    PREGAME: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    The Demons head back to Melbourne after an embarrassing loss to the Dockers to take on the Magpies at the MCG on Kings Birthday. With a calf injury to Lachie Hunter and Jacob van Rooyen possibly returning from injury who comes in and who goes out?
