Getting nothing from the umps. Having said that, this game was lost at selection

We wish. Wouldn’t have made an iota of difference.

    You forgot Harmes. 

    Been banging on about him all year.

    Can't stand him as player.

    So, will Goodwin shuffle the magnets - Gus into the guts maybe for a start.  Sadly not sure what else there is though.

    Can stomach a loss but let’s try not to get embarrassed.

    Too late.

    Getting slaughtered in the middle. Leave Dogga in the ruck. Play Max forward. Move Tmac wing. More pressure on their mids

    Was Clarry playing Q2?

    Watch the off the ball work on Oliver, should be getting frees

    Will we get fined for tanking, we rather play port than bne, get the cross over and meet Geelong in the gf

    I know that we won’t win from here but need to win back some respect in the second half.!!!

    T Mac has been beyond insipid tonight. We can’t in all seriousness take him into next week. Bring back Melk. Bring back anyone.

    McDonald has shown that if his body is not 100% right, he's woeful. Also, by his own admission he takes several weeks to get into marking form. Well sorry bud, you're my favourite player but we just don't have that sort of time.

    So if we lose to port in adelaide we play gws or swans i guess.

    I cant believe how soft our tackling is.

    We are so flat footed.

    So you don’t like TMac, Brayshaw, Harmes and Fritsch.

    Not many left Dazzle.

    Smith should be delisted.  One good game v crows. Terrible tonight 

    Rohan has had 2 kicks.  Who would not have had a goal kicked on them in that onslaught?

    I think your post is the most embarrassing

    How? Sure, our performance this half has been awful and I can see why people are frustrated, but the abusive comments directed at certain players are just gutless.

    Admittedly we have not been good in the first half, BUT too much negativeism is floating in the place.  !!!!!!

    Losing at Centre bounce => Defence not ready => easy goals . Quite simple really.

    Viney taken high by Selwood - no free.

    And did Dangerfield shoulder Clarrie high?  Nothing to see Mr Christian

    Imagine some of the posters on this site were Carlton supporters at half time in the 1970 grand final. Some of the bile towards our team and players is woeful. Yes it a bad performance but whether we win or lose you still need three wins to claim the cup. Let see what transpires in the finals before we commit hari kari

    Yet we somehow lead in. inside 50s 30 - 27 ..... but no structure.

    That's our issue, we were on top for almost the first quarter and a half, dominated inside 50's, but compare Hawkins, Cameron, Rowan to Brown, McDonald and Fritsch. Their forwards only need a sniff and manage to find space....so frustrating. Makes me want to vomit.

     

    I come here, eat popcorn and inhale the hysteria. 

    I mean, this is the place for it right?

    • GAMEDAY: Geelong

      It's Game Day, and reinforcements are finally arriving for the Demons—but will it be too little, too late? They're heading down the freeway to face a Cats side returning home to their fortress after two straight losses, desperate to reignite their own season. Can the Demons breathe new life into their campaign, or will it slip even further from their grasp?

    • PREVIEW: Geelong

      "It's officially time for some alarm bells. I'm concerned about the lack of impact from their best players." This comment about one of the teams contesting this Friday night’s game came earlier in the week from a so-called expert radio commentator by the name of Kane Cornes. He wasn’t referring to the Melbourne Football Club but rather, this week’s home side, Geelong.The Cats are purring along with 1 win and 2 defeats and a percentage of 126.2 (courtesy of a big win at GMHBA Stadium in Round 1 vs Fremantle) which is one win more than Melbourne and double the percentage so I guess that, in the case of the Demons, its not just alarm bells, but distress signals. But don’t rely on me. Listen to Cornes who said this week about Melbourne:- “They can’t run. If you can’t run at speed and get out of the contest then you’re in trouble.

    • NON-MFC: Round 04

      Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit.
      Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

    • CASEY: Gold Coast

      For a brief period of time in the early afternoon of yesterday, the Casey Demons occupied top place on the Smithy’s VFL table. This was only made possible by virtue of the fact that the team was the only one in this crazy competition to have played twice and it’s 1½ wins gave it an unassailable lead on the other 20 teams, some of who had yet to play a game.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      In my all-time nightmare game, the team is so ill-disciplined that it concedes its first two goals with the courtesy of not one, but two, fifty metre penalties while opening its own scoring with four behinds in a row and losing a talented youngster with good decision-making skills and a lethal left foot kick, subbed off in the first quarter with what looks like a bad knee injury.
