It’s like they picked the dumbest 20,000 they had, chucked them on the wing and said “just boo”. They are legit inbred. 

No they didn’t their all like this. 

 

We got it right that quarter. Increased pressure, improved defence and the marking target kicked to a player in better position.

Lots of kicks at goal from both sides have dropped short tonight.

He's having a cracker. 

Brayshaw seems to be missing.

Who shut Merrett down?

brayshaw had a great first half

Jesus this game is giving me palpitations.

We're ahead and everything, and provided the wheels don't fall off we should run over these twerps.

But we've gone from a 'nice problem to have' in not knowing who to pick up forward to we seriously don't know who to pick. TMac has gone off the boil, I thought last round was an aberration. Fritter has had a couple of assists but otherwise nowhere near it. Kozzie quiet. 

What do we do?! We're going to need to convert against better teams and in finals!

Really frustrating. We should have buried them by now.

Not been watching us this year?

Of the "better" teams who exactly had shredded us.

Unless by better teams you ate referring to the pies and crows.

Calm down mate. I've watched every game.

Our current forward structure was working against the other teams. Today it has looked limp. Constructive comment to say we're going to need to fix it. The Bombers are not a top 8 team. We will soon face a bunch of them..

Man I am going to enjoy this last quarter. 

Wish I could say the same! I can’t/won’t relax until the siren sounds and we’ve won.

Why single out one incident? They literally boo at everything. Everything. EVERYTHING. 

Don't know.
You're the one with Essendon supporters as friends .... Not me.
 

Reckon Kozzie could do with a game or 2 at Casey. well off the pace tonight


Picket poor tonight


A few of the boys not making 40 tonight. Weird.

McLachlan: another three goals will put the bombers in front.

  • PREVIEW: West Coast

    It was bad enough that the Melbourne Football Club created yet another humiliating scenario inside its wretched season at Marvel Stadium last Sunday, but the final insult is that it has been commanded to return to the scene of the crime to inflict further punishment on its fans this week. Incidentally, if this match preview, of a game that promises to be one of the most unattractive fixtures in the history of the game, happens to cut out of your computer screen three quarters of the way through, it’s no coincidence. I’ll be mirroring the Demons’ lacklustre effort against St Kilda from last Sunday when they conceded the largest last quarter turnaround for victory in the history of the game.

  • REPORT: St. Kilda

    When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.

  • CASEY: Sandringham

    The Casey Demons rebounded from a sluggish start to manufacture a decisive win against Sandringham in the final showdown, culminating a quarter century of intense rivalry between the fluctuating alignments of teams affiliated with AFL clubs Melbourne and St Kilda, as the Saints and the Zebras prepare to forge independent paths in 2026. After conceding three of the first four goals of the match, the Demons went on a goal kicking rampage instigated by the winning ruck combination of Tom Campbell with 26 hitouts, 26 disposals and 13 clearances and his apprentice Will Verrall who contributed 20 hitouts. This gave first use of the ball to the likes of Jack Billings, Bayley Laurie, Riley Bonner and Koltyn Tholstrup who was impressive early. By the first break they had added seven goals and took a strong grip on the game. The Demons were well served up forward early by Mitch Hardie and, as the game progressed, Harry Sharp proved a menace with a five goal performance. Emerging young forwards Matthew Jefferson and Luker Kentfield kicked two each but the former let himself down with some poor kicking for goal.
    Young draft talent Will Duursma showed the depth of his talent and looks well out of reach for Melbourne this year. Kalani White was used sparingly and had a brief but uneventful stint in the ruck.

  • PREGAME: West Coast

    The Demons return to the scene of the crime on Saturday to face the wooden spooners the Eagles at the Docklands. Who comes in and who goes out? Like moving deck chairs on the Titanic.
