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

    in fact, watch them out score us

    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

    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.

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

    And great finish from ANB.

    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

    • NON-MFC: Round 06

      The Easter Round kicks off in style with a Thursday night showdown between Brisbane and Collingwood, as both sides look to solidify their spots inside the Top 4 early in the season. Good Friday brings a double-header, with Carlton out to claim consecutive wins when they face the struggling Kangaroos, while later that night the Eagles host the Bombers in Perth, still chasing their first victory of the year. Saturday features another marquee clash as the resurgent Crows look to rebound from back-to-back losses against a formidable GWS outfit. That evening, all eyes will be on Marvel Stadium where Damien Hardwick returns to face his old side—the Tigers—coaching the Suns at a ground he's never hidden his disdain for. Sunday offers two crucial contests where the prize is keeping touch with the Top 8. First, Sydney and Port Adelaide go head-to-head, followed by a fierce battle between the Bulldogs and the Saints. Then, Easter Monday delivers the traditional clash between two bitter rivals, both desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top end of the ladder. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • REPORT: Essendon

      What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.

    • POSTGAME: Essendon

      Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.
