Going to get a good old belting today. Just not top 2 or top 4 material for that matter. Yes defence is great but we are really poor in attacking. 
 

remember the Giants have many starting 22 injuries while we are just about full squad. 

Agreed not even close to top 4 at the moment and with a tough run home I think we are done, no doubt we finish 5th and cop a belting from the tigers

Disgusting performance. Viney has been very poor and absolutely no forward line thanks to the selectors.

Viney not up to it. But hes not alone.

If we dont work out our fwd line soon we will be lucky to be top four.

But its not like nobody has not been saying this which makes it so frustrating.

 

Edited by leave it to deever

Statistically we're not doing too badly.

How we *look* is a different story. TMacs checkside kick from 50 out preceded three GWS goals. Our pressure is very poor. But we are defending okay.

Not out of reach. Unlikely, but not impossible. Let's back them in. Our Brisbane game looked ominous at half time.

What are we doing at training that results in this crap on game day?

Sculling bathwater.

    Good call. Game over now.

    Last week bombers weren't  good enough. Gws are class and we're a 5 to 8th team.  Selection forward strategy non existent. 

    Its a pretty even comp as we all know there are no easy games and when your not on 100% you will be punished 

    Hopefully second half is a very different story 

    Reality bus is never far away

    WTF was that from Harmes??

    I would applaud anyone who takes out that [censored] stain of a human Mumford.

    I’ve counted 6 free kicks directly from the Centre bounce to the Giants.

    We've lost it in there

    Can't get a sniff, and any touch is a fumble. They're cleaner

    Lazy performance from our midfielders, and terrible non-Brown selection by the coaching panel has us in a situation where we just cannot score, regardless of how good our defensive running, structure and personnel are.

    How about we put Max forward 80/20 and Jacko rucks 80/20.

    Coz boy it ain’t working at the minute

    This. Its not rocket science.

    Max is preyed upon from the umpires. They actively look for the straight arm. 
    mids need to pull finger out and take front position. Frees and clearances will then follow. 

    3 goals a half.    Good footy !!

    Oh. DR.D, you're so negative. Pull your heads in you biased know it alls! The players are playing the way you think. We've lost to Adelaide, Collingwood and now GWS. Say Goodbye to top 4 officially. 

    Poor max he has tried to do everything, he's tacking, getting back in defence getting battered from pillar to post.  Someone help him. He can't do everything


    I don’t understand those begging for Brown. He’d be getting nowhere near it, because we are continually losing the ball at the coal face. Even it up at the contest and then we can see what our forward line looks like.

    Putrid first half. 
    We have lost all our systems and confidence from earlier in the season. 
    can be turned around, but why has it happened 

    Huge Half time for Goodwin

    Still cannot believe Sideshow is not playing

    Harmes is not a smart player.

    Yep, that is why his only spot is  a defensive midfielder.  Needs a run with role.

    • 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.
