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?

Bereft, soul-destroying...................fraudulent

 

melbourne..........

They must bite the bullet and sack Goodwin fancy getting a coach from Essendon they have done nothing for 20 years.

 

We stink, plain and simple. 1 step forward 5 steps back. Hard work carefully building that house of cards and then Port come and flick it all over. I've had it

Ha Richardson ... the reason we don’t want to sack Goodwin mid-season. 


Legitimately seen a couple of our guys fully [censored] themselves at the physical contact today. If we hadn't already set the lowest of low standards then tonight might have been the all time worst!

Richo doing the interview.... 

 

Has goody been sacked already?! 

Mahoney should also be in the firing line, has always had a free pass despite doing [censored] like paying 2 first rounders for OMac 2.0 while letting Howe walk out the door.

Wow, Adelaide have a game to look forward to.

Has a winless team ever started favourite?

I hope not cos I'm loading up on them. Spewing I didn't take port over 40 for $7


Oliver and Brayshaw can go at years end.. one cant kick, one can’t chase

Trading a first rounder for koz was a mistake too

This is pointless, kicking goals now.  It'll just take the heat off.

Lose big with pride you cowards.

I disagree with you on your view that "this is pointless". And also with your notion of losing big with pride - that's repugnant to me. Until the final siren sounds it's never over. We're still a chance to win (no matter how slim). Melbourne to win by a point (to prove a point - hopefully :) ) I'm up for every goal the Dee's can kick - always - goals win games...

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

 

It's not necessarily about different methods, but it is about how dependent we are on CPs/clearances.

If we can't dominate in the middle, everything else falls apart.


This is worse than 186 I expected them to be reasonable tonight. Petracca is the only one that has had a go, the rest have been disgusting.

Goodwin needs to do a course on how to at least behave like a coach. What rubbish, 'play with your heads held high....'what a muppet....

We can dream

I truly believed we’d bottomed our a few weeks back. Surely the noise can’t be ignored any more. You have to try your guts out week after week to win in this competition. Is that noise?

Getting COVID would be more fun than watching this.

It would not. I’m all for cracking jokes about this club and this game but when someone you know is fighting for life from this virus, this [censored] pales in comparison.

  • 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.
