    I hate to say it.  I love JVR, but he's just not there at the moment.  TMac tries his heart out, but I think the game has past him by now.  Ordinary from Clarry and Trac tonight.  We just don't have a functioning forward line.Cover Fritta and we are gone at the moment.

    Yeah he did, my bad

    Oh please, we had just as much to play for as Essendon.

    Good on them for pumping us, we are downhill skiers at the best of times.

    People will agree and disagree, fact is we went out in straight sets last year without a whimper.

    This performance shows me that if a few are off, do others stand up?

    We’ll probably respond next week, then who knows after that.

    It’s Essendon FFS.

    So we're 5 goals down. Those 5 goals we let both there ruckman kick. 

    Good they can stand out in the rain and cop it.

    This has really shown us up. We can either embrace it and change for the better, or just ignorantly paper over the cracks thinking it will all just sort itself out.

    I thought Goodwin had learnt from last year... Maybe we are wrong 🤔

    What about the two our ruckman should have kicked.

    The lack of leadership is the worst part of this game for me. Nobody has stood up today and wanted to really change the state of play. Embarrassing.

    Where the [censored] are our dangerous tackle frees? 
     

    Redman can flop around like an ice skater and get one. Petty gets pile driven into the ground with out the ball and gets [censored] all

    Our players are slung or pushed so many times after   they have kicked the ball.

    Oliver did try to impose himself in the last, too little too late.

    May is worrying at the moment.

    Getting this to under 20 points would be a huge win.

    • CASEY: Southport

      The Southport Sharks came to Casey. They saw and they conquered a team with 16 AFL-listed players who, for the most part, wasted their time on the ground and failed to earn their keep. For the first half, the Sharks were kept in the game by the Demons’ poor use of the football, it’s disposal getting worse the closer the team got to its own goal and moreover, it got worse as the game progressed. Make no mistake, Casey was far and away the better team in the first half, it was winning the ruck duels through Tom Campbell’s solid performance but it was the scoreboard that told the story.

    • PREGAME: Sydney

      Just a game and percentage outside the Top 8, the Demons return to Melbourne to face the Sydney Swans at the MCG, with a golden opportunity to build on the momentum from toppling the reigning premiers on their own turf. Who comes in, and who makes way?

      The Demons pulled off an absolute miracle at the Gabba coming from 24 points down in the 2nd Quarter to overrun the reigning premiers the Brisbane Lions winning by 11 points and keeping their season well and truly alive.

    • GAMEDAY: Brisbane

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons are back on the road with a massive challenge ahead — facing the reigning premiers, the Brisbane Lions, at their Gabba fortress. The Lions are licking their wounds after a shock draw in Tasmania last week, while Melbourne’s season hangs in the balance. Can the Dees defy the odds and pull off a miracle to keep their razor thin finals hopes alive?
