Beaten in the air, on the ground, in the ruck, down back. A really poor performance

Hunter needs a week off 

he's running harder than most

by that logic you'd drop oliver, too

This quarter alone has been such a let down, I expected a fierce response and it didn't happen.

    Problem is we never learn our lessons and drink our own bath water too much.

    JJ down over the ball and cleaned up high but apparently the bombers player wanted it more?

    Not a single bounce has gone our way. Forget it and move on.

    Should have put Gus on the middle earlier in the game when Oliver was being beaten.

    Gus was doing the first ever good defensive job of his life down back on Stringer. Tracc, Viney and the other mids had to lift

    It's worst than that. It exposes our fwd line issues. Having Max back will help but unless Bbb stars for the rest of the year we are in trouble.

    Exposes everything fwd back and mid

    This should’ve been a percentage building win against a loser club. Instead we’ve [censored] the bed and no one is putting their hand up to try and stem the tide. This has been a game lost by poor leadership and laziness. Our worst loss since 2019-2020.

    The zero response is deafening.

    The whole group needs to have a good look at themselves. Folded like a cheap suit tonight.

    Classic Melkdumb, use your preferred foot

    Look it's a bad performance but people need to get a grip.

    Collingwood lost to West Coast's seconds last year.

    Geelong were 3-2 after 5 rounds and 4-3 after 7 last year.

    Richmond similar in 2019.

    60% inside efficiency for Essendon is disgusting. That is terrible for the best defence in the league.

    • REPORT: North Melbourne

      I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

    • CASEY: Werribee

      The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

      The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
