    FFS. We have 1, read 1, Injury. 

     Goodwin can’t survive this year as Coach. 

    I've never heard a club hide behind injuries as much as we did last season. What's their excuse going to be in 2020?

    Putrid doesn’t feel like a negative enough word to describe this performance. Any suggestions?

    Is Goodwin still at the ground? Has he been in the bog taking a [censored] for the last 90 minutes? What is going on?! Do something you pelican!

    What do you expect him to do?

    He's got Fritsch on a wing, Viney in the forward line, TMac higher up the ground.

    What do you want?

    It's systemic change from him we need, not gameday flipping of magnets.

    Wow, Adelaide have a game to look forward to.

    Has a winless team ever started favourite?

    I actually have a feeling a winless GWS team years ago were favourites against us in the Neeld years

    I actually think Sparrow is going OK. Lever is our best, no point pointing finger at forward line that last passage was the only clean ball inside 50 tonight

    Goodwin will hang his hat on that play as being the Melbourne Way. 

     You can’t just do that once. Do it for 4 quarters Goodwin or go home with the Port players. 

     We need a coach that knows what he’s doing and can put a rocket up the players.

    Nine do going into round 1.

    Overrated pea hearts.

    Another year wasted.

    He was great before his ACL with us... But geese he is too slow to play on a small, to weak to play on the big boys. If he isn't intercept marking he is a liability 

    he wasn't even that good. He just guarded grass at adelaide

    This is one of those teams that constantly seems to be a thorn in our side. It’s time to make a statement and to bloody their noses (metaphorically of course).

    Ha ha.!

    Lockhart, Lever and Petracca the only ones to break even.

    Gawn, Viney, McDonald are not leaders' bootlaces.

    Ha ha this is like our best side! 

    Same [censored]. Running under the ball. Missed short handballs poor turnovers lazy mids no system 4 around the ball

    Crap umpiring

    Pack your bags Goodwin [censored] hopeless

    Our percentage actually meant we were still a chance, even if we lost tonight. So much for that!

    I’ve got low standards, but this is one of the most pathetic performances I’ve seen.

    Tell me why I should keep believing in us. Please. Surely we as supporters need to stick together through thick and thin. But we all need to know that we are not alone - that we hold true to something that we have stuck to, thick and thin for decades. is it a delusional idea to be believe in a Melbourne Premiership in our lifetimes or is it best to give up and play tiddly winks instead. I certainly vote for the former. The game's not over but I hear the fat lady singing...what is the name of that song?

    You're a young fella aren't you?

    We've had a couple of false dawns in almost 6 decades. Don't waste your time. The Hawks will have a full rebuild and start winning multiple flags again before our blokes realise we have a coach who is taking us backwards.

    Haven't looked to do it all night.

    Complete lack of work rate the entire game.

    The most hollow I've felt since the West Coast game. Thank goodness I've got Demonland for my mental health.

    Fraudulent is a good word for this. Our club. Our coach. Our supposed culture.

    I recall that game in 2013.

    We lost to a 0-17 GWS in Sydney and not one person was surprised by the result.

    This is exactly the issue, we have to win contested ball to win the game. Every other club has different methods. Embarrassing.

    • PREGAME: Western Bulldogs

      With only 3 games to go, all against Top 8 fancies, the Demons face a daunting task as they return to the MCG when they play the Western Bulldogs. Who comes in and who goes out?

      The Demons return to town fresh off a thumping win over the back-to-back wooden spooners, the West Coast Eagles, played in front of a sparse crowd at Marvel Stadium, the same venue that hosted last week's heartbreaking loss.

    • PREVIEW: West Coast

      It was bad enough that the Melbourne Football Club created yet another humiliating scenario inside its wretched season at Marvel Stadium last Sunday, but the final insult is that it has been commanded to return to the scene of the crime to inflict further punishment on its fans this week. Incidentally, if this match preview, of a game that promises to be one of the most unattractive fixtures in the history of the game, happens to cut out of your computer screen three quarters of the way through, it’s no coincidence. I’ll be mirroring the Demons’ lacklustre effort against St Kilda from last Sunday when they conceded the largest last quarter turnaround for victory in the history of the game.

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.
