it simply seemed an awkward style of play, as if the lads really had no heart for it. Like a house of cards.. it only takes a few to become ineffective resulting in some messed up forward thrusts and it becomes contagious. Nothing seemed natural which is what makes me think it was a team instruction.

Someone has quoted me on that site...not me writing it.. or is your diminutive sconce incapable of undestanding the diference.

It was a direct quote from your post here and comments like that are not appreciated. Number of posts does not qualify you from some sort of exemption from being castigated for making troll like comments. No need to attempt to insult me, a review of your post will make it clear who has the "diminutive sconce".

im not trash talking dees.. im making a comment based upon events..its called opinion...repeat after me..O- Pin- yun !!...i didnt go out and play like sh!t.. 22 others ( less a few ) did that all by themselves.

"Where's my skis" does not constitute an opinion, it is a smart arse wise crack based on misplaced stereo types of our supporters and I am offended by its wanton use by a long term troll. Comments about how the players played show your ignorance, you can guarantee they were trying their hardest at this stage and have no doubt they will improve and peak when it counts the most. It is clear you have never played the game at any reasonable level.

Most of us here abide by the game...that is ..a persons word is up for grabs... but you play the ball not the man... since you are incapable of this why dont you run along lil boy ( read TROLL ) and go play in anothers kindergarten and leave the commentary to some grown ups !!

I will play the man when I suspect that the man I am going after is not all he seems but a troll from another site trying to cause trouble. Petty insults reflect more on you indefensible position than on me. I have read a few of your posts and the site would not be the worse without you, you over value your own contributions.

The quote on the other site was a direct quote from your post here, and then later you have the audacity to brag about it.

Apparently its verbotten to comment upon any inadeqauceies.. all comments must apprently alud our performaces ?even when they are sub-acceptable ??

I don't even know what this sentence is trying to say. "Verbotten" and "alud" - are they even words?

We were all disapointed with the performance and rational and sound criticism of specific aspects of the performance is fine, but when you add "where's my skis" and then go bragging about posting this to stir things up, that is unacceptable.

You can have your opinion as to our performance on Friday night, I do not share your negative view as to how this establishes us for the year, your "where's the skis" post is simply trolling, and you do yourself no favours bragging about it in another place.

devastated, week 1 all is not lost but that was the first game I've ever been at and walked out before the final siren. I can cop losing but playing a pathetic game style like we played tonight I can't take. we are not Sydney, we are not west Coast, we are Melbourne we have to find our own game plan that works for us and not try to play like something we are not.. I watched Hotter then hell 1998 this morning, ND backed his players, not like tonight. Footy is an easy game all you have to do is outscore your opponent, tonight we didn't try to kick goals we tried to stop our St Kilda kicking goals, defensive midset from the start.

Don't blame Miller or Yze because they are easy targets our game plan is a disgrace and full blame should be placed on ND. Worst coaching performance I've ever seen, trying to make our team something we are not. We are an attacking football team that is best when we control the coridor and kick long to one of the best forward lines in the competition and back our players.

As I said I have never before tonight left before the final siren but tonight was a disgrace.

Could not agree more - this was a pathetic display - no game plan, no direction, handballing to stationary targets when we're already clear, no leadership and no-one prepared to put their hand up and take a chance. It was a disgrace.

I think everyone needs to take their chill pills and let this issue rest. If you wish to continue with the banter, please use the Private Msg function.

Wow, it's hot on demonland. Look at what a loss brings out in everyone, including me. It's hardly ever been this busy.

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.
