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?

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

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.

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.!

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.

Any chance we might switch?

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.

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

    OVER YET? by KC from Casey

    The Friday evening rush hour clash of two of the VFL’s 2024 minnows, Carlton and the Casey Demons was excruciatingly painful to watch, even if it was for the most part a close encounter. I suppose that since the game had to produce a result (a tie would have done the game some justice), the four points that went to Casey with the win, were fully justified because they went to the best team. In that respect, my opinion is based on the fact that the Blues were a lopsided combination that had

    CENTIMETRES by Whispering Jack

    Our game is one where the result is often decided by centimetres; the touch of a fingernail, a split-second decision made by a player or official, the angle of vision or the random movement of an oblong ball in flight or in its bounce and trajectory. There is one habit that Melbourne seems to have developed of late in its games against Carlton which is that the Demons keep finding themselves on the wrong end of the stick in terms of the fine line in close games at times when centimetres mak

    MELBOURNE BUSINESS by The Oracle

    In days of old, this week’s Thursday night AFL match up between the Demons and the Blues would be framed on the basis of the need to redress the fact that Carlton “stole” last year’s semi final away from Melbourne and with it, their hopes for the premiership.  A hot gospelling coach might point out to his charges that they were the better team on the night in all facets and that poor kicking for goal and a couple of lapses at the death cost them what was rightfully theirs. Moreover, now was

    UNDER THE PUMP by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons have been left languishing near the bottom of the VFL table after suffering a 32-point defeat at the hands of stand alone club Williamstown at Casey Fields on Sunday. The Demons suffered a major setback before the game even started when AFL listed players Ben Brown, Marty Hore and Josh Schache were withdrawn from the selected side. Only Schache was confirmed as an injury replacement, the other two held over as possible injury replacements for Melbourne’s Thursday night fixt
