We are so far off it, it's not funny. Still only 5 points down.

Baker is a poor footballer.

 

Not working hard enough at all. Getting schooled in the uncontested 82 to 46. Need a rocket up the pants 

Doubling us in uncontested possessions. Absolutely inexcusable. 
Total lazy rubbish. Too many players ball watching. Fritta our only winner. 
Gawn and Oliver properly drinking it up. 


We are being outplayed, outmatched, outmarked snd outsmarted by the bottom team. This is ridiculous. Pull your head in dees ?

North have been starting games well and it's unsurprising they're giving us some cheek.  However, there's only a goal in it and I'm confident we'll still win and win well.

Shame about Thommo.  Come on down, Harry Petty.

Isn't he out injured as well?  Maybe get White on the list (again)!

Baker too one dimensional, plain and simple 

Has not been good.

Poor Harmes.

 

Watching Tomlinson is breaking my heart. It’s just so so awful. 

North have done this most game this season but fallen away in the second half. Still we look a bit off.

North have started several games well this year. The trend is they always drop off in the second half.

No need for panic.

Yet.

Based on the quality of the teams we should be six goals up by now.

Well that was borderline embarrassing. 
 

Midfield getting spanked. 


Melksham tagging Zeibel? If so, he’s doing a terrible job.

We just don’t look up to it today 

Losing Viney and Tomlinson hasnt helped but yea we look flat .

Petty was named as an emergency for this game, so it seems like he's ok to go.

Missing Viney big time

Gawn has got to get his [censored] together. You’re the captain. Stand up. 


Very lazy today and playing like trash, yet still only a few points down. Once we get going we should get well on top.

Sidenote, Baker is not up to it. Doesn’t ha e the smarts, skills or stamina on the wing or in the middle. Only chance left to save his career is as a pressure forward IMO. His only good game at afl level thus far was when he kicked a few ripping goals. 

Ok this start doesn't surprise me. But Christ we need to lift. 

Shattered for Tomlinson. 

We need to start manning up on them. The uncontested count is disgraceful. 

Lift Melbourne

  • REPORT: Port Adelaide

    Of course, it’s not the backline, you might argue and you would probably be right. It’s the boot studder (do they still have them?), the midfield, the recruiting staff, the forward line, the kicking coach, the Board, the interchange bench, the supporters, the folk at Casey, the head coach and the club psychologist  It’s all of them and all of us for having expectations that were sufficiently high to have believed three weeks ago that a restoration of the Melbourne team to a position where we might still be in contention for a finals berth when the time for the midseason bye arrived. Now let’s look at what happened over the period of time since Melbourne overwhelmed the Sydney Swans at the MCG in late May when it kicked 8.2 to 5.3 in the final quarter (and that was after scoring 3.8 to two straight goals in the second term).

  • CASEY: Essendon

    Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

  • PREGAME: Gold Coast

    The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

  • POSTGAME: Port Adelaide

    The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
