    Yep.

    Bang on.

    We dont need a coach, we need an Exorcist

    Seriously, I think we should change the name. We have been cursed.

     

    given the many examples of poor football i have seen from the dees over the last 50 years, i am pretty sure its game over. probably finals gone as well.

    This is actually embarrassing. I feel ashamed for them almost. Wheres the heart?

    Whats happened to them. Sydney numbers to the ball....playing in front and tackling like they are vying for finals and us like wooden spooners.

    The only positive is I suppose we will get more work done around the house this month.

    Selection killed us once again.

    Bring in one spud in Joel Smith only to leave the other plonk in Oscar McDonald against a nimble Sydney forward line.

    Weren't you calling for Joel Smith's inclusion?

    Cricket’s on this weekend! The football can GAGF.

    I turned the TV off halfway through the 2Q. Almost as putrid as vs Port and the Dogs - you can tell with Melbourne from the first bounce, what sort of effort you’ll get. There’s no way that we come back from this.

    It is. It’s cultural. It’s what we do. 

    Im struggling to get the enthusiasm up to watch the second half. Why bother? Nothing has changed

    Yep. We older Supporters have seen it so many times before. 
    it’s what we do.

    Can anyone explain to me what Jack Viney exactly adds to our side. Said many of times that he's such a disruption to our midfield set up. 6 disposal in a half of football.

     

    Sydney aren’t even played that well. Just trying and running

    Correct. Coaches are responsible for how teams play. Cohesion, confidence in each other, knowing your role and turning up and being able to absorb pressure. 
    That is the job of a coach. He has done nothing to fix or stem this disaster which you could see coming after two minutes. 
     

    Not for the first time we have folded under perceived and physical pressure. 

    No doubt Goodwin has to cop responsibility for us being flat from the first bounce for the 10293th time in his coaching career.

    But we cannot absolve the players. Half-hearted tackles, no defensive running, hollywood handballs, dropped marks, missed kicks, laziness. They have to pull their fingers out too.

    You are such a dumb [censored] troll.

    Lever has been in our best about 8 times this year.

    Wagner's played one game! And was decent! It's not even possible for him to have got a game "on the back of poor games".

    Go [censored] your self stupid troll. You obviously havnt been watching to not see how many goals Lever has given away this year and Wagner has always been Bog ordinary and always will. Won’t win a premiership with him in the side so give it a rest

    I don't know how many times Goodwin and co have to hammer home the point of consistency, but they just don't get it.

    Ohhhhh no. You can’t just pin this on the players. This is Goodwin’s 4th year as coach. His list, his team, his structures. 

    It doesn’t work, and he has to wear the blame.

    My only solice in our season being finished is that at least Essendon didn’t inflict it on us in the last round

    I just hate this club so much 

    Goodwins biggest half 

    Better do something you shi-t hea-d Goodwin

    We’d be better off playing worse in the 2nd half, just so he can be sacked.

    Board needs to wear a lot of the blame too, giving a wannabe such a long contract. This whole club can [censored] off if this is their response to consolidating a spot in the 8.

    • PREVIEW: Collingwood

      Way back in March we contemplated the possibility of a Demon resurgence after Simon Goodwin’s summer of love. Many issues at the club had seemingly been addressed, key players were returning from injury and a brand new day was about to dawn. We imagined the coach pulling a rabbit out of a hat. The team would roar up the charts, push aside every opponent and make its way to a Grand Final ending in ultimate triumph with Goody and Max holding the premiership cup aloft under a shower of red and blue ticker tape.

    • AFLW REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      We’re back! That was fun. The Mighty Dees’ Season 10 campaign is off toa flying start with a commanding 48-point winover the Western Bulldogs, retaining the Hampson-Hardeman Cup in style. After a hard-fought first half in slippery conditions, the Dees came out in the second half and showcased their trademark superior class, piling on four goals in the third termand never looked back.

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      The final score in Saturday's game against Hawthorn was almost identical to that from their last contest three months ago. Melbourne suffered comprehensive defeats in both games, but the similarities ended there.When they met in Round 9, the Demons were resurgent, seeking to redeem themselves after a lacklustre start to the season. They approached the game with vigour and dynamism, and were highly competitive for the first three quarters, during which they were at least on par with the Hawks. In the final term, they lapsed into error and were ultimately overrun, but the final result did not accurately reflect their effort and commitment throughout the match.

    • CASEY: Box Hill

      The Casey Demons ended the regular season on a positive note and gained substantial momentum leading into the finals when they knocked the Box Hill Hawks off the top of the VFL ladder in their final round clash at Casey Fields. More importantly, they moved out of a wild card position in the finals race and secured a week's rest as they leapfrogged up the ladder into fifth place with their decisive 23-point victory over the team that had been the dominant force in the competition for most of the season.

      The final game of the 2025 Season is finally upon us and the Demons may have an opportunity to spoil the Magpies Top 4 aspirations when they face them on Friday Night. Who comes in and who goes out?
