This pathetic capitulation is now effecting our percentage and could cost us too 4. WAKE THE [censored] UP YOU WEAK DOGS

 

Embarrassing, insipid & lazy football when the game is there to be won, we roll over & die. No desperation, no desire, no fight.. We’re such an average football club who are content with a good showing every now & again. I don’t think we have the determination or grit to win another flag.

We lost this game when we got off the bus. Goodwin selecting Petty over Tomlinson is a joke.

We lost this game because we have kicked six goals from 49 inside 50s.

Spare me mate! Tomlinson is a C grader at best 

Agree they’re making out that this is the reason we lost the game, maybe it’s because our disposal is 2nd rate & we have some very dumb footballers


Now the problem is our percentage!

Our forwards have to be some of the softest footballers, I haven't seen a forward group get done this badly in 1 on 1 contests. 

They all look immune to having a crack, genuinely pathetic effort from the lot of them.

Out coached, outplayed, outworked. Imagine thinking that Smith, Van Rooyen and Gawn is a finals standard forward line, or that Spargo is a worthy sub option, or that our goal kicking is not a massive issue. 

Smith had a good first half. JVR is close to useless as main key forward. 

How far off is BBB? His presence is sorely missed

Credit to cats defence tonight.

Shame on our entries too.

They shut down Max and kept him to zero marks.

You know when that happens we are going to struggle. 

Sadly we didn't want this with many Senior players too doing sfa in the last.

Was there for tge taking and we didn't.

Could have cemented top 4.

Petty was an absolute shocing call.

Chandler out.


Stand up Melbourne for [censored]'s sake. Geelong wanted it more, show some response.

I can't believe people are still asking this question around the bye.....

So it that the excuse next week of a 9 day break again if we loose 

How many times tonight, has our forward entry been a long bomb to Kozzie v Stewart? 

Same thing happened last year. Got within a few points and then they blew us away with a flurry of goals.


4 goals in 6 minutes? Game on!!! 😆

 

Bit late to put Petty forward, Goody. Should've happened at half time, especially given Cameron was off

  • REPORT: Sydney

    A few weeks ago, I visited a fellow Melbourne Football Club supporter in hospital, and our conversation inevitably shifted from his health diagnosis to the well-being of our football team. Like him, Melbourne had faced challenges in recent months, but an intervention - in his case, surgery, and in the team's case, a change in game style - had brought about much improvement.  The team's professionals had altered its game style from a pedestrian and slow-moving approach, which yielded an average of merely 60 points for five winless games, to a faster and more direct style. This shift led to three consecutive wins and a strong competitive effort in the fourth game, albeit with a tired finish against Hawthorn, a strong premiership contender.  As we discussed our team's recent health improvement, I shared my observations on the changes within the team, including the refreshed style, the introduction of new young talent, such as rising stars Caleb Windsor, Harvey Langford, and Xavier Lindsay, and the rebranding of Kozzy Pickett from a small forward to a midfield machine who can still get among the goals. I also highlighted the dominance of captain Max Gawn in the ruck and the resurgence in form in a big way of midfield superstars Christian Petracca and Clayton Oliver.

  • POSTGAME: Sydney

    The Demons controlled the contest from the outset, though inaccurate kicking kept the Swans in the game until half time. But after the break, Melbourne put on the jets and blew Sydney away and the demolition job was complete.

  • CASEY: Northern Bullants

    The Casey Demons travelled to a windy Cramer Street, Preston yesterday and blew the Northern Bullants off the ground for three quarters before shutting up shop in the final term, coasting to a much-needed 71-point victory after leading by almost 15 goals at one stage. It was a pleasing performance that revived the Demons’ prospects for the 2025 season but, at the same time, very little can be taken from the game because of the weak opposition. These days, the Bullants are little more than road kill. The once proud club, situated behind the Preston Market in a now culturally diverse area, is currently facing significant financial and on-field challenges, having failed to secure a win to date in 2025.

  • GAMEDAY: Sydney

    It’s Game Day, and the Demons have a golden opportunity to build on last week’s stirring win by toppling Sydney at the MCG. A victory today would keep them firmly in the hunt for a finals spot and help them stay in touch with the pack chasing a place in the Top 8. Can the Dees make it two in a row and bring down the Swans?
