    Jeez this is hard to watch. This is a [censored] team with a huge injury list and nothing to play for. Anything less than a 60 point win is a failure tonight, and yet we’re barely ahead now. 

    Wake up you lazy buggers. You can’t just rock up and win. You actually have to work to get the result.

    2.3 to 4.0 this quarter. Hawks are 17th and on form worst side in the comp. Goodwin needs to give this mob a rocket. Cats and Dogs put the foot to the throat of geams like this. We just linger and make things so difficult.

    If this continues i would even take Melk over Viney in the middle for a while and let Viney try and find some connection/skills down at Casey.

    Problem is there's no Casey and probably won't be for weeks.

    Invest in Sparrow.

    Geez were walking now

    Viney needs to go down to VFL and earn his spot. Only has a left foot and it ain’t much good. Needs to know his limits and play within them.

    [censored] over this. We play pathetic football against crap opposition. We need the win and the percentage. Pull your finger out and get going. This is just inexcusable to let Hawthorn waltz inside 50 for easy goals. 
    Can’t even win a clearance against these plodders. Viney absolute crap. 
    Need a hell of a lot more from Tmac too.

    Why can’t we just bloody bury a team early!? 26 points up against 17th on the ladder, dominating where the ball is, but then take the foot off the throat....again! 

    Not finishing our work, again. Brown has been good, but jeez you’d put that first shot in the bank usually.

    If any game this year confirms what we’ve been seeing all year, we just don’t know how to be a good, let alone great team. And it’s really disappointing. To give probably the worst AFL team put on the park this year a 3 goal run and a second quarter victory is frankly woeful stuff. The Hawks will likely run out of puff, and we’ll get the win, but once more against a lowly team we’ve shown our lack of dominance.

    I am absolutely livid. Some of these players are just plain lazy. Why the [censored] do we need to make this so [censored] hard. We are so losing this game. 


    Let them off the hook there, we were 4 goals up should've gone into the break 40 up, let's roll them in the 3rd!!

    C'mon Demons!!!!

    Disappointing. 

    It’s rare that we give up chains of goals, but we did.

    We need to make a statement in the 3rd quarter.

     

    Lol Viney tagging Mitchell to 20 touches at half time. FMD. 
    Time to get serious. You either want to stamp your authority on this competition or you want to continue to be untrustworthy. 

    Opposition teams clearly know that they just have to try against us and it’s a contest. Clearly still have a softness or cockiness in our attitude. 
     

    having said that Hawks are playing out of their skins. Is it coincidence or do we always bring out the best in teams.

    • 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.

      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.
