I've got one. The Melbourne Fuchsias

Melbourne Pansies more like it. 

 

Watch the Swans lock it down going against the wind. Goodwin is a clueless hack.

in fact, watch them out score us

To Hell and Back right?

Such a joke of a club 


Can't even laugh 

We just stink 

At least we won the preseason 

 

Smith is such an unclean player.

Such a sad first half.

Won the toss and thought the wind will win it for us.

Too many passengers.

No talk or connection, playing for themselves.

Why do we let a team get a run of goals?

Cmon dees, bring the skills.

This is 100% on the players.

I'd say it mostly is, but when Sydney were leaving an extra behind the ball, why didn't we man that up?  Why did we allow that to happen?  We should have done more their from a tactics point of view.

The sad part is the footy world  expects this from the MFC ... Simply can’t be trusted and serious leadership, culture & coaching .. just can’t see them doing a Cats comeback

I've been watching. Every game.

You would know that if you showed up after a win. But you don't.

Lever's 6th in the Demonland POTY votes by the way, so I'm clearly not the only one.

And Wagner played well last week. Deserved his game this week.

No he didn’t. In the first half he was useless. He takes too long to make a decision and then it’s too late! He gets tackled,etc

More like - To Hell and back again 


Can rightly have a go at the coach all we want, but even if it was a 3 on 2 entry into our forward fifty and it was not in mays, brayshaw, melksham or salem's hands i dont trust the player to make the right decision or be able to execute. 

Our players simply aren't that good. Part of being good is being consistent and after a point it cant be coached to improve. This is our brand. 

 

As usual if don’t dominate the midfield everything else falls apart! 

That was our best use of half back then.  We actually hit three targets in a row.

And great finish from ANB.

Melbourne Irrelevants more apt

As I’ve said. Worst. Game. Plan. Ever. 
Such a high risk low reward plan. 

Clarry wasnt the worst in that 1st half.  Not great.  Same with Viney.   Along with May, can they bullock and drag this lot out of the mud pit to a narrow win?


They made moves. Tomlinson back. Smith forward. I’m shook. 

Jones on bench with thigh strapped - maybe we're a chance?

 

What the [censored] was Oliver doing then?

Jesus.  Some of the decisions tonight have been awful.

Jones off injured.  We were playing a man down with him on anyway so no loss there.

Excellent Langdon

  • REPORT: Port Adelaide

    Of course, it’s not the backline, you might argue and you would probably be right. It’s the boot studder (do they still have them?), the midfield, the recruiting staff, the forward line, the kicking coach, the Board, the interchange bench, the supporters, the folk at Casey, the head coach and the club psychologist  It’s all of them and all of us for having expectations that were sufficiently high to have believed three weeks ago that a restoration of the Melbourne team to a position where we might still be in contention for a finals berth when the time for the midseason bye arrived. Now let’s look at what happened over the period of time since Melbourne overwhelmed the Sydney Swans at the MCG in late May when it kicked 8.2 to 5.3 in the final quarter (and that was after scoring 3.8 to two straight goals in the second term).

  • CASEY: Essendon

    Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

    The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

  • POSTGAME: Port Adelaide

    The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
