Max shepherded out of the ruck - no free.

13 - 8 plus so many not paid

Clear narrative from HQ. Just like the Lions game.


No need to chase this its gone, regardless we were playing in Adelaide only it will be on Friday Night.

2021 is hard enough without watching Melbourne embarrass themselves and fall apart like a cheap suit a week from finals.

    That was a blessed quarter for Geelong. They won’t do that again. Had a little help early in the quarter and then momentum had some fun. We dropped our heads badly. We need to make a respectable game out of it now though

    We’re getting put in a spliff. 
    Embarrassing with so much to play for 😩

    Heading for straight sets. 
    I’ve turned it off. I can’t watch this [censored].

    15 minute period has just ended our season. Yes we reload for finals, but with our current personal we cannot win a flag. Too much inexperience, and too much reliance on Oliver and Petracca. As soon as they’re not getting ball, our midfield disintegrates.

    Port will beat us in Adelaide next week. Who knows what happens from there.

    [censored] disappointing end to the season.

    Counts for little tonight. I’m glad that Scott has shown his hand so we can work on how to defend against them in finals if needed
     

    no injuries please

    well beat Port next week

     

    Their game plan is unchanged. Chip chip chip kick inside 50

     

    You'd think that a game plan that has stayed the same for the last 10 years might actually be defended by us

    So many pessimistic loser posts.

    It doesn't take much for anger and hatred to arise in football.

    Well this half will say a lot about the team and their belief.

    8 goals in a row in a single quarter. That is 2012 woeful.

    Well that was the worst 30 minutes of my week

    Just had to step out for a halfa, what did I miss??

     

     


    Need to just walk this one out and start preparing for next week, no point risking anything more on a lost cause. No point dwelling on this anymore cats just were on fire for 10 minutes. Won’t do it again if we play at some point and won’t be at gmhba 

    Edited by Garbo

    A shellacking will be no good for confidence heading into finals

    At the moment its an all round chitshow. We need some respectability from this game. Max, Trac, Clarry need to lead the way and defenders need to introduce themselves to each other. 

    Come on Dees ffs. Wake up

    Appreciate the hope.

    Just sad to see some blokes tonight as passengers.

    This was a chance to finish on top but sadly we dont want it enough.

    Our touted backline looks like a rabble.

    The lack of clearances in the middle is scary.

    We look like like a team thinking about the end of year os trip.

    Is that a Hocking reference? Or eyes on Tv reference?

    Mainly TV but a bit of Hocking.

    One word. Uncompetitive when the finals heat comes on, and this IS a final. So much promise, so much hope, and bang. 7 goals in 10 minutes. That’s not just a fraudulent defence, that’s a contested embarrassment. In all honesty, who here thinks we can win the flag? And how?

      The Demons head back out on the road in Round 10 when they travel to Queensland to take on the reigning Premiers and the top of the table Lions who look very formidable. Can the Dees cause a massive upset? Who comes in and who goes out?

      Wayward kicking for goal, dump kicks inside 50 and some baffling umpiring all contributed to the Dees not getting out to an an early lead that may have impacted the result. At the end of the day the Demons were just not good enough and let the Hawks run away with their first win against the Demons in 7 years.

      It’s game day and the Demons are chasing a fourth straight win as we take on the high flying Hawks at the G. After decades of being tormented by the Hawks the Dees will be keen to extend their 7 year dominance over Hawthorn.

    • NON-MFC: Round 09

      Round 9 kicks off out west with the Dockers hosting a Collingwood side resting several stars. Fremantle need to make a statement on their home deck after some disappointing form on the road, while the Magpies will be keen to maintain their Top 2 position. Friday night sees a must-win clash between two sides desperate to stay in touch with the eight. St Kilda have shown glimpses while Carlton are clinging to relevance after a flat start to the season. Saturday’s twilight game at Marvel pits the Bombers against a struggling Sydney outfit. Essendon can’t afford another close match against a lower-ranked side, while the Swans risk sliding down the ladder even further. Up in Darwin, the fourth-placed Suns will look to extend their stay in the top four. The Bulldogs have hit their stride with three big wins on the trot and will be very keen to consolidate on their momentum. The always fiery Showdown looms as pivotal for both clubs. Adelaide are eyeing a spot in the Top 4 with a win, while Port Adelaide’s season could slip away if they drop another game and fall further behind the pack. Sunday begins with a yawn fest between Richmond and West Coast. The Tigers need to bank the points to stay clear of the bottom two, while the Eagles are still chasing their first win of the year. The Giants face one of the league’s toughest road trips as they travel to GMHBA Stadium to face the Cats. With GWS at risk of a third straight loss, Geelong will be eager to consolidate their position inside the eight and start their climb up the ladder. The round wraps up with the top-of-the-table Lions heading to Ninja Stadium to take on the second-last Roos. The Lions should easily take care of the struggling Roos who might be powerless against the best in the comp. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?
