We dont need a coach, we need an Exorcist

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

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.

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.

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.

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.

    EASYBEATS by Meggs

    A beautiful sunny Friday afternoon, with a light breeze and a strong Windy Hill crowd set the scene, inviting one team to seize the day and take the important four points on offer. For the Demons it was not a good Friday, easily beaten by an all-time largest losing margin of 65 points.   Essendon threw themselves into action today, winning most of the contests and had three early goals with Daria Bannister on fire.  In contrast the Demons were dropping marks, hesitant in close and comm

    DEFUSE THE BOMBERS by Meggs

    Last Saturday’s crushing loss to Fremantle, after being three goals ahead at three quarter time, should be motivation enough to bounce back for this very winnable Round 5 clash at Windy Hill. A first-time venue for the Melbourne AFLW team, this should be a familiar suburban, windy, footy environment for the players.   Essendon were brave and competitive last week against ladder leader Adelaide at Sturt’s home ground. A familiar name, Maddison Gay, was the Bombers best player with

    BLOW THE SIREN by Meggs

    Fremantle hosted the Demons on a sunny 20-degree Saturdayafternoon winning the toss and electing to defend in the first quarter against the 3-goal breeze favouring the Parry Street end. There was method here, as this would give the comeback queens, the Dockers, last use of the breeze. The Melbourne Coach had promised an improved performance, and we did start better than previous weeks, winning the ball out of the middle, using the breeze advantage and connecting to the forwards.

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out

    GOOD MORNING by Meggs

    If you are driving or training it to Cranbourne on Saturday, don’t forget to set your alarm clock. The Melbourne Demons play the reigning premiers Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields this Saturday, with the bounce of the ball at 11:05am.  Yes, that’s AM.   The AFLW fixture shows deference to the AFL men’s finals games.  So, for the men it’s good afternoon and good evening and for the women it’s good morning.     The Lions were wounded last week by 44 points, their highest ever los

    HORE ON FIRE by Meggs

    The 40,000 seat $319 million redeveloped Kardinia Park Stadium was nowhere near capacity last night but the strong, noisy contingent of Melbourne supporters led by the DeeArmy journeyed to Geelong to witness a high-quality battle between two of the best teams in AFLW.   The Cats entered the arena to the blasting sounds of Zombie Nation and made a hot start kicking the first 2 goals. They brought tremendous forward half pressure, and our newly renovated defensive unit looked shaky.
