We have to stop calling Salem a great kick. He’s barely even a good kick.

16 disposals, 8 clangers.

    Great goal to the yellow guys,

    some ...yellow/red/black

    I can only distinguish Red& baby blue and the other guys with a bit of yellow.

    We're in trouble!

     

    We are in front, yet I feel just as bad as I did last week.

    We have so many passengers and blokes that, right now, aren't AFL standard.  It's terrible.

    Salem has gone backwards.  Can hit a target over 15 metres and that's it.  Gus has no impact.  Bennell looks like he is running across ice and doesn't want to be touched.

    Only plus for me is May.   Has been sensational, and love that he is bashing and crashing and sticking up for his teammates.

    Seen enough. If this is the club response after last week then we should fold. Not even joking. Soulless.

    Seriously how many passengers do we have.

    Angus brayshaw.  Has been a passenger for 2 years and goodwin continually refuses to drop him

    Deplorable. Goodwin has lost the players. It's going to be a long two years.

    Harmes pushed in the back. Play on. Can’t buy a free.  

    We can’t but instead of worrying about that let’s concentrate on the things we can control. Like I don’t know, learning to kick a football.

    This is the classic lose lose game

    Yep this team is trash. This game just looks and feel like a bottom two clash. I'm not looking forward to getting beaten by 6 goals by norf on Sunday 

    Woeful kicking to open players inside 50.  What is happening at training?  Do we train this at all?  Doesn't appear that way.

    Salem's cost us 2 goals now.  1 dopey push in the back in the middle and one horrid 45 kick straight to a crow forward.

    He's done a few good kicks, offset by a few horrible acts.  So Melbourne

    If harmes just gave the umpire lip, we can’t expect 50:50s to go our way

    Good on him. If Goodwin has courage he'll be asking some questions of them too.

    Gees the unpiring is just terrible

    I'm most annoyed about the lack of 50 when we finally got a holding the ball free kick and Talia just drops the ball to the ground.

    Salem .. 50% disposal efficiency, 8 clangers & 3 frees against. Our best players are going backwards at the rate of knots. 

    Is McHenry the biggest germ in football? We are a disgrace make no mistake if Bartlett is worth anything he will sack Goodwin after the match we are going no where with him. The worst coach in  the comp.

    I’m excited for the Goodwin [censored] fest post game 


    Just... hit a target. I don't understand how you can be so bad at something you've not only practiced almost your whole life, and get paid seriously good coin to do.

    It's actually disrespectful.

    Nibbler is agricultural.  We are panicking all over the ground.  Skills are awful.  Umpiring is abysmal.  If you didnt see the score, you would think we were being flogged

     

    Maybe this is why the players have given up because the umpires do not give us any frees, i know i would be $#((#$ off as well

    • NON-MFC: Round 11

      Round 11, the second week of The Sir Doug Nicholls Round, kicks off on Thursday night with the Cats hosting the Bulldogs at Kardinia Park. Geelong will be looking to to continue their decade long dominance over the Bulldogs, while the Dogs aim to take another big scalp as they surge up the ladder. On Friday night it's he Dreamtime at the 'G clash between Essendon and Richmond. The Bombers will want to avoid another embarrassing performance against a lowly side whilst the Tigers will be keen to avenge a disappointing loss to the Kangaroos. Saturday footy kicks off as the Blues face the Giants in a pivotal clash for both clubs. Carlton need to turn around their up and down season while GWS will be eager to bounce back and reassert themselves as a September threat. At twilight sees the Hawks taking on the Lions at the G. Hawthorn need to cement themselves in the Top 4 but they’ll need to be at their best to challenge a Brisbane side eager to respond after last week’s crushing loss to the Dees on their home turf. The first of the Saturday night double headers opens with North Melbourne up against the high-flying Magpies. The Roos will need a near-perfect performance to trouble a Collingwood side sitting atop the ladder.

    • PREVIEW: Sydney

      The two teams competing at the MCG on Sunday afternoon have each traversed a long and arduous path since their previous encounter on a sweltering March evening in Sydney a season and a half ago. Both experienced periods of success at various times last year. The Demons ran out of steam in midseason while the Swans went on to narrowly miss the ultimate prize in the sport. Now, they find themselves outside of finals contention as the season approaches the halfway mark. The winner this week will remain in contact with the leading pack, while the loser may well find itself on a precipice, staring into the abyss. The current season has presented numerous challenges for most clubs, particularly those positioned in the middle tier. The Essendon experience in suffering a significant 91-point loss to the Bulldogs, just one week after defeating the Swans, may not be typical, but it illustrates the unpredictability of outcomes under the league’s present set up.

    • REPORT: Brisbane

      “Max Gawn has been the heart and soul of the Dees for years now, but this recent recovery from a terrible start has been driven by him. He was everywhere again, and with the game in the balance, he took several key marks to keep the ball in the Dees forward half.” - The Monday Knee Jerk Reaction: Round Ten Of course, it wasn’t the efforts of one man that caused this monumental upset, but rather the work of the coach and his assistants and the other 22 players who took the ground, notably the likes of Jake Melksham, Christian Petracca, Clayton Oliver and Kozzie Pickett but Max has been magnificent in taking ownership of his team and its welfare under the fire of a calamitous 0-5 start to the season. On Sunday, he provided the leadership that was needed to face up to the reigning premier and top of the ladder Brisbane Lions on their home turf and to prevail after a slow start, during which the hosts led by as much as 24 points in the second quarter. Titus O’Reily is normally comedic in his descriptions of the football but this time, he was being deadly serious. The Demons have come from a long way back and, although they still sit in the bottom third of the AFL pack, there’s a light at the end of the tunnel as they look to drive home the momentum inspired in the past four or five weeks by Max the Magnificent who was under such great pressure in those dark, early days of the season.

    • CASEY: Southport

      The Southport Sharks came to Casey. They saw and they conquered a team with 16 AFL-listed players who, for the most part, wasted their time on the ground and failed to earn their keep. For the first half, the Sharks were kept in the game by the Demons’ poor use of the football, it’s disposal getting worse the closer the team got to its own goal and moreover, it got worse as the game progressed. Make no mistake, Casey was far and away the better team in the first half, it was winning the ruck duels through Tom Campbell’s solid performance but it was the scoreboard that told the story.

    • PREGAME: Sydney

      Just a game and percentage outside the Top 8, the Demons return to Melbourne to face the Sydney Swans at the MCG, with a golden opportunity to build on the momentum from toppling the reigning premiers on their own turf. Who comes in, and who makes way?
