Every quarter of every game for as long along as I can remember. Let's show how limp brained footballers we can be and give up a scoring chance in the last minute. I guess that's what bottom 8 teams do and that's us. 

 I'll just say it again FFS...... Again again and again.

    Why are you all blaming Smith? Hibberd gave tippinwuiti all the space that led to that goal.

    Essendon on the few occasions they’ve bothered, have transitioned the ball well. But our mids relax when the quarter is nearly over, drop their defensive set up and this [censored] happens. Every. Single. Time. 


    Are Melksham and Spargo playing?  We are 2 players short. (3 if we add Smith)

    You can hide players   but  how much hiding do we need to do with Smith.

    Our final quarter possibly for the season. Just win well melbourne, rub further salt into the essendon team and there fans. 

    No injuries either please. 

    Just keep going. 

     

    Poor quarter too defensive need to kick goals.

    Are Spargo and Milkshake even playing today?

    Delist Spargo, Smith, Neal-Bullen.  Dumb and lack intensity.  


    My god this is a boring game. Can’t hit targets, kick goals, don’t look in any words the centre when playing, always playing the boundary side and players casually jogging around.  
     

    This is pathetic. Most of the play is stop and start with no flow or system what so ever. 
     

    My son said he just wants the game to be over, it’s bloody boring and they keep turning it over. Says it all really.

    i dont understand why they do not know tippinwuti is going to run with the ball every change he gets, he keeps faking them out  and running around our players. thankfully he is not destroying us like he has in the past.

    Terrible quarter, the only reason we didn't lose it by a handful of goals is they are just so bad.

    How Melksham made it through the entire season without being dropped is just dumbfounding.

    Would be classic Melbourne if we lost from here, against a genuinely awful side playing bottom 2 football.

    Ugh another goal on the siren.

    Luckily we have a good lead. But we need to play like we did in that 2nd quarter. 

    Funny reading comments online from essendon fans that are saying how well mitch brown is playing and how essendon de listed him and they get stuck with daniher who has done nothing. 

     

    Given Daniher's combination of appalling set-shot kicking, general inconsistency and the dreaded osteitis pubis, I was staggered they delisted a tall forward with demonstrated 2019 goalkicking ability.

    Seeing tipungwuti create havoc for us shows the importance of chasing a Saad/Zac Williams type this off season. 

    Well this may well be our last quarter of 2020. Which Melbourne will turn up?


    I’m blaming Smith because SEN is blaming Smith, and it’s all I have to go on.

    Yeah milkshake is pointing and telling players where to go. He is like our very own traffic cop. Useless. 

     

    Just kick it to Hunt or Petracca. Only two forwards that can kick straight at the moment.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
