It's what happens on the day that counts. You can talk up a team as much as you like.

We can't win a flag with our fwd line. Tmac is cooked. Bbb is injured a lot and Jvr is just starting. We are missing a big proven quality Chf. 

 

Too many of our boys  at the ball drop ... clear out of the leading lanes and let the forwards jump at it.


I have no idea what is going on with our structure right now.

JVR popping up at full back?

Is Grundy injured?

 

How many times have we kicked it to a pack of 1 of us, 3 of them in our F50 and they STILL win the ball at ground?

    They are working much harder

    Players jogging off as we attack forward. Ridiculous 

    Disgraceful performance. Grundy is being smashed, the defence is being torn apart. May, Petty and Thommo are all having shockers

    Oliver is unsighted, Sparrow - is he even playing? - 

    TMac was straight up kneed in the back by Draper in a ruck contest - play on. He should be rubbed out.

    This is truly a pathetic display

     


    5 uncontested marks to go from end to end, this is 2019 esque. 


    Game over

    Just now, leave it to deever said:

    There is something in this.

    But we've also been outworked right from the get go

     

    Switching off. Horrid. 10 goal loss written all over it.

    • PREVIEW: North Melbourne

      Can you believe it? After a long period of years over which Melbourne has dominated in matches against North Melbourne, the Demons are looking down the barrel at two defeats at the hands of the Kangaroos in the same season. And if that eventuates, it will come hot on the heels of an identical result against the Gold Coast Suns. How have the might fallen? There is a slight difference in that North Melbourne are not yet in the same place as Gold Coast. Like Melbourne, they are currently situated in the lower half of the ladder and though they did achieve a significant upset when the teams met earlier in the season, their subsequent form has been equally unimpressive and inconsistent.

    • REPORT: Adelaide

      The atmosphere at the Melbourne Football Club at the beginning of the season was aspirational following an injury-plagued year in 2024. Coach Simon Goodwin had lofty expectations with the return of key players, the anticipated improvement from a maturing group with a few years of experience under their belts, and some exceptional young talent also joining the ranks. All of that went by the wayside as the team failed to click into action early on. It rallied briefly with a new strategy but has fallen again with five more  consecutive defeats.

    • CASEY: Coburg

      The Casey Demons returned to their home ground which was once a graveyard for opposing teams but they managed to gift the four points on offer to Coburg with yet another of their trademark displays of inaccuracy in front of goals and some undisciplined football that earned the displeasure of the umpires late in the game. The home team was welcomed by a small crowd at Casey Fields and looked right at home as it dominated the first three quarters and led for all bar the last five minutes of the game. In the end, they came away with nothing, despite winning everywhere but on the scoreboard and the free kick count.

    • PREGAME: Rd 18 vs North Melbourne

      After four weeks on the road the Demons make their long awaited return to the MCG next Sunday to play in a classic late season dead rubber against the North Melbourne Kangaroos. Who comes in and who comes out?

    • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

      The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.
