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.

Up forward is his best possie by far.

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)

Edited by ProperDee

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.

Spargo is. 

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.


Great minds Moony.

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: Sydney

    A few weeks ago, I visited a fellow Melbourne Football Club supporter in hospital, and our conversation inevitably shifted from his health diagnosis to the well-being of our football team. Like him, Melbourne had faced challenges in recent months, but an intervention - in his case, surgery, and in the team's case, a change in game style - had brought about much improvement.  The team's professionals had altered its game style from a pedestrian and slow-moving approach, which yielded an average of merely 60 points for five winless games, to a faster and more direct style. This shift led to three consecutive wins and a strong competitive effort in the fourth game, albeit with a tired finish against Hawthorn, a strong premiership contender.  As we discussed our team's recent health improvement, I shared my observations on the changes within the team, including the refreshed style, the introduction of new young talent, such as rising stars Caleb Windsor, Harvey Langford, and Xavier Lindsay, and the rebranding of Kozzy Pickett from a small forward to a midfield machine who can still get among the goals. I also highlighted the dominance of captain Max Gawn in the ruck and the resurgence in form in a big way of midfield superstars Christian Petracca and Clayton Oliver.

  • POSTGAME: Sydney

    The Demons controlled the contest from the outset, though inaccurate kicking kept the Swans in the game until half time. But after the break, Melbourne put on the jets and blew Sydney away and the demolition job was complete.

  • CASEY: Northern Bullants

    The Casey Demons travelled to a windy Cramer Street, Preston yesterday and blew the Northern Bullants off the ground for three quarters before shutting up shop in the final term, coasting to a much-needed 71-point victory after leading by almost 15 goals at one stage. It was a pleasing performance that revived the Demons’ prospects for the 2025 season but, at the same time, very little can be taken from the game because of the weak opposition. These days, the Bullants are little more than road kill. The once proud club, situated behind the Preston Market in a now culturally diverse area, is currently facing significant financial and on-field challenges, having failed to secure a win to date in 2025.

  • GAMEDAY: Sydney

    It’s Game Day, and the Demons have a golden opportunity to build on last week’s stirring win by toppling Sydney at the MCG. A victory today would keep them firmly in the hunt for a finals spot and help them stay in touch with the pack chasing a place in the Top 8. Can the Dees make it two in a row and bring down the Swans?
