I feel like I’m watching a 2nd division VFA game. Our season looks to be over. 

Lol this is Southern Footy League 3s, reserves... 

 

Goodwin at HT said we needed to be brave with the ball, not boring.

Either he didn't tell the players that, or they just were unwilling or incapable of trying it.

We didn't appear to even try to move the ball anywhere other than down the wing.

Just before the second Walters goal, Gawn took consecutive intercept marks. Both times, the only place he properly looked was the wing. Both times, he kicked to Pickett.

Our ball movement plan tonight has been appalling, absolutely appalling.

Yeah they are harder at it than us. We like to think we are good at the contest but they look significantly better than us.

Gawn having a shocker. Needed skipper to stand up when it counts.

Those goal square goals are nothing but a lack of desperation to not conceed... 

 

Just really really poor skills, not teaming well at all.

We look like a club under pressure and lacking confidence and have actually gone backwards.

Is it coaching or the players?

It looks like the players lacking composure to me.

This club can seriously go and get [censored]. All the promise in the world but fail miserably once again.

I'm done with Goodwin. He can [censored] right off.

I’m with you Dazzle, they are absolutely unwatchable. Why the (censored) do we support them?


I hope those claiming they won't renew their membership aren't the ones that  blindly renew every October. 

Bloody remember these moments, and start to hold this god damn club accountable for a change. 

We are a combination of not very good, looking tired and a set of players that don’t appear to understand the game plan (if there is one). 

We have some high quality players in Gawn, Trac, Oliver, May and Langdon but our next layer is a combo of developing, declining or not quite good enough.

This is not a side deserving of a finals spot.  

 

Things will not change if we are not prepared to address our kicking deficiency. Cannot hit a simple target 30m in front.  Lots of players are a waste of space. 

At least the season is finally over so I can stop having my day ruined by this team

i didn’t mind losing when our team was putrid but it’s hard to take now. 


[censored] Cairns. When is Richmond playing there? Oh wait, they never have to play these sort of games.

Goodwin just now: we were "boring" (his word) with the football and need to get courageous, and we need to defend to the required level.

Let's see whether we've done anything to work on those two things.

Zero for 2

Embarrassing performance. Twice in the third quarter Maxie took an uncontested mark in the backline and twice the ball came straight back after he disposed of it with first a kick and then a handball.

If we have no plan or strategy to clear the ball from the backline then what hope do we have to plan and kick goals. Oh , I forgot, we have kicked just two in three quarters.

Time to watch current affairs or documentaries because they are more exciting and interesting than watching Goody's dees.

To Pickett?! It was just bizarre! 

As much as I don’t rate Goodwin how have we recruited so many sub standard players


I thought it hurt to be shown up by the Swans, but to be chasing the Dockers around like headless chooks? Its a special kind of hell. Reserved for only the worst. 

Think back friends, what did you do to deserve this? We must have done something, because there's no other reason for this.

See you all in 2021

But not all of us, a lot fewer will be signing up and a lot less will be sponsors

Unfortunately being thoroughly out coached again!

chaotic team selection!

Lockhart should have been picked, at least he stays down! 

black and white subtitles GIFYes. Kick the stupid ball. 

We’re ready for another rebuild. Midfield needs a complete overhaul. Forward line needs a complete overhaul. Coach needs to change. Enough of this [censored]!


If only AFL games were awarded to the team with the most missed one handed tackles...we would be undefeated and headed for a flag

Yeah I'd say that's it. This club is not changing, this little setup has run it's course. The time, emotion and copious amounts of money invested is seriously adding up to di*k all. Get wrecked Melbourne 

 

Why have we recruited so many players who cannot execute skills in the wet compared to other teams.  Petracca, Oliver and May, the only exceptions.  
I thought last week was the worst performance of the year but tonight is looking good to usurp it.

  • NON-MFC: Round 07

    Round 7 gets underway in iconic fashion with the traditional ANZAC Day blockbuster. The high-flying Magpies will be looking to solidify their spot atop the ladder, while the Bombers are desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top eight. Later that evening, Fremantle will be out to redeem themselves after a disappointing loss to the Demons, facing a hungry Adelaide side with eyes firmly set on breaking into the top four. Saturday serves up a triple-header of footy action. The Lions will be looking to consolidate their Top 2 spot as they head to Marvel Stadium to clash with the Saints. Over in Adelaide, Port Adelaide will be strong favourites at home against a struggling North Melbourne. The day wraps up with a fiery encounter in Canberra, where the Giants and Bulldogs renew their bitter rivalry. Sunday’s schedule kicks off with the Suns aiming to bounce back from their shock defeat to Richmond, taking on the out of form Swans.Then the Blues will be out to claim a major scalp when they battle the Cats at the MCG. The round finishes with a less-than-thrilling affair between Hawthorn and West Coast at Marvel. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?

  • REPORT: Fremantle

    For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

  • CASEY: UWS Giants

    The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

  • PREGAME: Richmond

    The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?

  • POSTGAME: Fremantle

    A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.
