Fremantle aren’t all that bad, it’ll be a tough, close scrape. Dockers by 89 points.

Us dees fans are a hardy lot. Who have developed all sort of coping strategies to deal with the sort of routine gut punch we got in the last game. Some get angry. Some fatalistic. Some vow never

Anyone else get the impression from Goodwin yesterday that the club doesn't think it will play finals?  Three things I noticed: 1. He started talking of the condensed fixture, travel, Alice, late

If Goody wants to be coach next year, and if the boys actually want to play finals footy, if there's any shred of pride, even a skerrick of love for this club, an ounce of heart for us as long, long time suffering members, we'll come out and show it.

Let's see.

The highlight of this [censored] game for me.

Season over,Thank [censored]

 

Giants by 80+ next 

 

Pay Goodwin out,it will be far cheaper than 2 more years of Goodwin wasting Gawn,Viney,Petracca,Brayshaw,Oliver and May in their prime.

 

Does Bartlett have the Balls???

Why is Fritsch always in the opposite pocket to his natural side? So moronic.

Goodwin looks cooked. No idea. Out of his depth.

Goodwin's idea of coaching is encouragement and speaking in riddles (we need to be brave).

No an ounce of tactical ability.

Goodwin has trashed Paul Roos' legacy at the Dees

He really has. What a waste of time and money.

Like Rivers. Kozzie flying for speccies in the wet says it all. We are like witches hats. This really has been an appalling performance. Goodwin Looks cooked in the box. Petracca getting mad with everyone. Hibberd limping and should never have played. Ins useless. Poorly coached and NO SYSTEM whatsoever. He's lost the players completely.

Roos chose Goodwin as his successor. 

Didn't really have much of a vested interest on his way out the door though...   He wanted big Stuie Dew.

Our opponents did what was necessary 

Stop with the excuses. 
That’s the problem. These people don’t like hard work

Don’t disagree that we have been outplayed. But if you read my post I was saying that no team should’ve played in Cairns in September. Woeful conditions on both games.

AFL has become so hard to watch with this horribly inconsistent umpiring.

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

I don't think we have recruited so many bad players. We certainly have a lot of underutilized talent at the club. What we have failed to do is to develop raw talent into match winning player, how many players come into the side showing so much potential and are still only showing potential three years later. nor have we been able to meld them into a team. The real issue is that we are being coached by a robot who isn't programmed beyond option A. 

And of course the selectors are equally limited. Why choose Preuss in monsoonal weather. 

 

Just hopeless

    HIGHLIGHTS/LOWLIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Melbourne traveled across the continent to take on the Fremantle Dockers in sweltering conditions at Mandurah south of Perth in a game that delivered the club both its highlight and its lowlight in the first minute.  But first, let’s start by doing away with the usual cliches used in connection with the game. It was just a practice match and the result didn’t matter. Bad kicking is bad football. The game was played in severe heat, the swirly breeze played havoc with both teams resulting in

    TRAINING: Friday 28th February 2025

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers headed down to Gosch's Paddock to bring you their observations from today's training session before the Demons head off to Perth for their final Practice Match. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Beautiful morning, not much wind, more than a couple of dozen spectators.  The players were up and about, boisterous and having fun. One of their last drills were three teams competing in a hard at it, handball game in a small area. Goody

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom
