What's the bet our useless coach doesn't even review this tripe

 

Great goal Oscar

    Our forward line is rat****. 

    Pickett looks flashy, but ultimately is a non-contributor. Offers little offensively and defensively.

    Jackson isn’t a forward.

    Weid can’t handle wrestling with big defenders.

    TMac is slower and less agile than my grandmother.

    Fritsch is a specialist at shanking his kicks.

    Melksham doesn’t rock up half the time.

    Possibly the worst forward line since Brad Miller lead players like Pettard and Dawes into battle.

    That is just comedy gold!

     

    Guys i got home late.  Thought chanel 70 was on series tag.  Wait ....no recording as my series tag for AFL was too low down the pecking order.  Arghh....wot to do.  Wait i got Kayo yippee!

    So i sit down with dins and a cold ale hoping to at least witness a hard fought contest with a team that's eager to improve.

    Now i have no idea what's happened.  I have not read one post on here and i don't know the result.  However, i just had the unfortunate experience of watching one of the most undisciplined bunch of rabble attempt to play something resembling AFL footy i have ever seen.  Easily rates up there as a top 50 or so i think and ive seen some horrors watching this mob.

    All rookies excused.  The rest who have 70 plus games or more, apart from a few try hards, well words escape me.  Abomination?

    So i head into the 2nd  hoping for the best but expecting more of the same.  We don't even look like scoring a goal at this point with one rushed kick from a defender (Lockhart...who actually wasn't too bad that quarter) and a bog ordinary nothing kick from Clarry into the post after the siren.

    Could it get worse?  Yes it could.  If we keep playing at that sub standard we'll be lucky if any networks will even bother with us from here.  Who the hec would want to watch this rubbish.  Very hard to polish a turd i'm afraid.

    And it all started with a wet behind the ears Georgiardio easily losing Oscar as Port brought it through the middle, taking a simple overhead, and kicking truly.  His bro, lead foot Tom, aint helping one bit so far.  And Harmes!??  What the hell's going on there?  Chunk doing his usual get ball ...turn ball over immediately through the middle trick.  

    We almost look like we've raised the white flag from the get go.

    I hope i'm proven wrong.  Off to watch the 2nd.  Oh what joy.

    Oh get [censored] Fritsch! Absolute [censored] himself then

    9 years ago to the day we put in a gutless effort like this. Really, not a lot seems to have changed bar the fact we apparently have more 'talent'.

     

     

    How the [censored] didn’t the goal umpire see that. He was 20cm from it

    Can't remember there last time I've done it even in the dark Neeld years but I'm turning off just making me angry. I don't need this s*$@t

    Honestly, the best way to deal with this is to not care about it.

    I wonder if the bloke running the place understands just how dangerous it would be for the clubs future if other long term members took a similar view?

    Putrid lack of effort from OMac there

    [censored] that goal umpire needs a new job... I wonder if he can coach?

    Amazing how this club can ruin my weekend and it not even be Friday yet

    Its thoughtful of the lads to save you time though.

    Fritch & Omac backline synergy - BRILLIANT


    Nothing like paying 2 first rounders and 750k a year for an OMac clone

    Lol Pickett, does nothing but give away frees. Cant believe we've likely essentially paid more than pick 1 for him.

    He’s a tiny peanut. Overrated on this site so far. Let’s hope he improves. Looks like a poor man’s JKH at this stage.

    WTF is Langdon doing?  HE sees the turnover on our HF line and for some idiotic reason every single time he starts stalking forwards towards the ball carrier and leaves his man wide open on the wing.  How many times have they gone over his head tonight?

    We only seem to win when max takes at least 10 marks.

    • 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.

    • GAMEDAY: West Coast

      It's Game Day and the Demons have a chance to notch up their third consecutive win — something they haven’t done since Round 5, 2024. But to do it, they’ll need to exorcise the Demons of last year’s disastrous trip out West. Can the Dees continue their momentum, right the wrongs of that fateful clash, and take another step up the ladder on the road to redemption?
