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.

    • CASEY: Geelong

      There was a time in the second quarter of the game at the Cattery on Friday afternoon when the Casey Demons threatened to take the game apart against the Cats. The Demons had been well on top early but were struggling to convert their ascendancy over the ground until Tom Fullarton’s burst of three goals in the space of eight minutes on the way to a five goal haul and his best game for the club since arriving from Brisbane at the end of 2023. He was leading, marking and otherwise giving his opponents a merry dance as Casey grabbed a three goal lead in the blink of an eye. Fullarton has now kicked ten goals in Casey’s three matches and, with Melbourne’s forward conversion woes, he is definitely in with a chance to get his first game with the club in next week’s Gather Round in Adelaide. Despite the tall forward’s efforts - he finished with 19 disposals and eight marks and had four hit outs as back up to Will Verrall in the second half - it wasn’t enough as Geelong reigned in the lead through persistent attacks and eventually clawed their way to the lead early in the last and held it till they achieved the end aim of victory.

    • REPORT: Geelong

      I was disappointed to hear Goody say at his post match presser after the team’s 39 point defeat against Geelong that "we're getting high quality entry, just poor execution" because Melbourne’s problems extend far beyond that after its 0 - 4 start to the 2025 football season. There are clearly problems with poor execution, some of which were evident well before the current season and were in play when the Demons met the Cats in early May last year and beat them in a near top-of-the-table clash that saw both sides sitting comfortably in the top four after round eight. Since that game, the Demons’ performances have been positively Third World with only five wins in 19 games with a no longer majestic midfield and a dysfunctional forward line that has become too easy for opposing coaches to counter. This is an area of their game that is currently being played out as if they were all completely panic-stricken.

    • PREGAME: Essendon

      Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

    • NON-MFC: Round 04

      Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?
