Viney, Jones would even drop Salem to make a statement, assistant coaches and Goodwin enough is enough.

 

Viney might be the lowest IQ player in football history

Out: OMac, Smith, Jones, Melksham, Fritsch, Weid 

In: Hibberd, Lockhart,  Baker, Pickett, Bennell, TMac

Give us run and some fresh legs please and finally accept that Oscar and Jones should have just played their last game.

    It was a 22 player awful performance, it is always the coaches fault, remind me how many coaches in last few years?

    I have to agree with this, its on the players. There refusal to be in the game and up for the fight from the start is stark. no good starting try in teh second half. Had to be in teh first qtr with teh wind and put the game away and take teh sniff away from the opposition. Cant think of anyone who really gave it everything. Max maybe teh exception.

    Someone explain what Smith and Wagner did to get a game this week. 

    Wagner needs to be delisted at seasons end. 

    Smith is always the whipping boy but Viney and Jones get a pass because he is hard at it and gee we must get him to 300 well that will win us a flag.

    For the first time in a long time, I honestly don’t care. Not that it would have won us the game, but Lockhart instead of Smith (or more likely OMac) would have made a big difference.

    So whatever we post here, expect the opposite,

    The two that have to go are Oscar and Jones.  Neither should play again unless we absolutely have no choice.

    A few saying Weid should be dropped, but that's a bit silly.  Had a shocker but our ball use going forward was a joke.  He has runs on the board.

    Will they flick Smith as well?  Doesn't get much of it and still panics, but then I didn't think he lowered his colours to Papley.  Papley still got his hands on the footy a bit but I didn't think he was that damaging tonight.

    Who comes in?  Take your pick.  Pickett, Hannan and AVB will probably get a look in, but then so should Jay Lockhart.  Hibberd to come back in IF he is fit.

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      There was a time during the current Melbourne cycle that goes back to before the premiership when the club was the toughest to beat in the fourth quarter. The Demons were not only hard to beat at any time but it was virtually impossible to get the better them when scores were close at three quarter time. It was only three or four years ago but they were fit, strong and resilient in body and mind. Sadly, those days are over. This has been the case since the club fell off its pedestal about 12 months ago after it beat Geelong and then lost to Carlton. In both instances, Melbourne put together strong, stirring final quarters, one that resulted in victory, the other, in defeat. Since then, the drop off has been dramatic to the point where it can neither pull off victory in close matches, nor can it even go down in defeat  gallantly.

    • CASEY: Footscray

      At twenty-four minutes into the third term of the game between the Casey Demons and Footscray VFL at Whitten Oval, the visitors were coasting. They were winning all over the ground, had the ascendancy in the ruck battles and held a 26 point lead on a day perfect for football. What could go wrong? Everything. The Bulldogs moved into overdrive in the last five minutes of the term and booted three straight goals to reduce the margin to a highly retrievable eight points at the last break. Bouyed by that effort, their confidence was on a high level during the interval and they ran all over the despondent Demons and kicked another five goals to lead by a comfortable margin of four goals deep into the final term before Paddy Cross kicked a couple of too late goals for a despondent Casey. A testament to their lack of pressure in the latter stages of the game was the fact that Footscray’s last ten scoring shots were nine goals and one rushed behind. Things might have been different for the Demons who went into the game after last week’s bye with 12 AFL listed players. Blake Howes was held over for the AFL game but two others, Jack Billings and Taj Woewodin (not officially listed as injured) were also missing and they could have been handy at the end. Another mystery of the current VFL system.

    • PREGAME: Brisbane

      The Demons head back out on the road in Round 10 when they travel to Queensland to take on the reigning Premiers and the top of the table Lions who look very formidable. Can the Dees cause a massive upset? Who comes in and who goes out?

      Wayward kicking for goal, dump kicks inside 50 and some baffling umpiring all contributed to the Dees not getting out to an an early lead that may have impacted the result. At the end of the day the Demons were just not good enough and let the Hawks run away with their first win against the Demons in 7 years.
