Sidebottom is killing Langdon. 😭

Langdon has been a shade of himself since finals last year.

    Side bottom giving Langdon an absolute bath.

    Maybe Langdon should stand the other side of the boundry line, Sidebottom seems to be kicking or hitting there a lot.

    We've got them on the ropes. They [censored] themselves at every contest. Langdon is a huge liability tonight though.

    Angus would be a great replacement in the wing. 😭

    I have a feeling we’re gonna come back and win this.

    No more rain to come and it’ll continue to dry out.

    Disgusting, just the same as the Collingwood mob booing Viney and applauding that filthy player Maynard.

    Oliver needs more to his kicking game than kick it as long as he can. It’s his weakness. Provides little to our forwards and to the team

    Brayshaw goes down and you wanna see who stands up.

    Tom Sparrow with just 2 disposal for a half is incredibly disappointing.

    And why the [censored] we never seem to have someone at the drop of the ball when are bombing it inside our F50.

    Collingwood creates a ground ball and carry into space and start their transition game.

    A Nick Watson would be handy

    Much better second quarter. But don't just blame our makeshift forward line for our poor score. This constant long bombing into the forward 50 is so predictable that it is literally playing into Collingwood;s hands.

    I said earlier in the thread, if we are within a goal at three quarter time, we win this. A definite momentum switch in that quarter. Keep it going Dees, the opportunities will come as they tire.

    Sparrow two touches.

    Trac 7.

    Tmac 2.

    I hate to say it but even Viney hasn't  been good.

    We aee still in this. It’s ugly, but we can still get going 

    What the hell is with the media trying to get Maynard off. He elected to jump and caused a player to go off concussed. How can it be any clearer.

    Gus would have been handy.

    How can these mugs defend Maynard. 

    It's four weeks mate.

    The poor guys knocked out.

    Commentators are losers.

    See ya Maynard. 

    Happy holidays.

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      Hands up if you thought, like me, at half-time in yesterday’s game at TIO Traeger Park, Alice Springs that Melbourne’s disposal around the ground and, in particular, its kicking inaccuracy in front of the goals couldn’t get any worse. Well, it did. And what’s even more damning for the Melbourne Football Club is that the game against St Kilda and its resurgence from the bottomless pit of its miserable start to the season wasn’t just lost through poor conversion for goal but rather in the 15 minutes when the entire team went into a slumber and was mugged by the out-of-form Saints. Their six goals two behinds (one goal less than the Demons managed for the whole game) weaved a path of destruction from which they were unable to recover. Ross Lyon’s astute use of pressure to contain the situation once they had asserted their grip on the game, and Melbourne’s self-destructive wastefulness, assured that outcome. The old adage about the insanity of repeatedly doing something and expecting a different result, was out there. Two years ago, the score line in Melbourne’s loss to the Giants at this same ground was 5 goals 15 behinds - a ratio of one goal per four scoring shots - was perfectly replicated with yesterday’s 7 goals 21 behinds. 
      This has been going on for a while and opens up a number of questions. I’ll put forward a few that come to mind from this performance. The obvious first question is whether the club can find a suitable coach to instruct players on proper kicking techniques or is this a skill that can no longer be developed at this stage of the development of our playing group? Another concern is the team's ability to counter an opponent's dominance during a run on as exemplified by the Saints in the first quarter. Did the Demons underestimate their opponents, considering St Kilda's goals during this period were scored by relatively unknown forwards? Furthermore, given the modest attendance of 6,721 at TIO Traeger Park and the team's poor past performances at this venue, is it prudent to prioritize financial gain over potentially sacrificing valuable premiership points by relinquishing home ground advantage, notwithstanding the cultural significance of the team's connection to the Red Centre?

      After a disappointing loss in Alice Springs the Demons return to the MCG to take on the Magpies in the annual King's Birthday Big Freeze for MND game. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: St. Kilda

      After kicking the first goal of the match the Demons were always playing catch up against the Saints in Alice Spring and could never make the most of their inside 50 entries to wrestle back the lead.

      It's Game Day and the Demons have traveled to Alice Springs to take on the Saints and they have a massive opportunity to build on the momentum of two big wins in a row and keep their finals hopes well and truly alive.
