Is Kozzy injured? He couldn't kick straight to save his life.

[censored] I hate football. 

Watch that inbred hack Maynard get off 

I've got my matches and firelighters at the ready.

3 out of bounds in the last qtr!!

Are we now finals chokers?

Consecutive losses: 3 with pretty poor performances in each. 

Also bugger off Richo and Maynard had no care for how Gus was. Just trying to defend his thuggery. 

So deflated. Blues/swans will know we are gettable. 

Where did we go tonight???!!

Maynard if i see you in the street lets just say wouldn't be friendly any legacy your family has with Casey [censored] dead in the water you 

Yep

 

Grundy will be practising his set shots all week after this. Van Rooyen one week no doubt.

Sad that even with our poor kicking we let Pies win tge game in tge first quarter. 

Our midfield and wings were disgraceful in the first.


And we'll go into the next match without Brayshaw and probably JVR. 

Nice while it lasted, but we are not winning it from here even if we do win next week.

Very selfish from Rivers, why take a 45 m kick when you have players all around the goal square.

Lost in the first quarter. For a team coming off 2 insipid finals performances last year to get smashed at the contest like we did in Q1 is just hard to fathom.

How many teams have done two consecutive straight sets exits? Are we going to add another 'embarrassing record' to our list?

Essendon did it about six years in a row before becoming a powerhouse.

Think we went in with the wrong sub.

Agreed…Laurie not an AFL standard footballer at this stage


 
That was sheethouse.
Continuous long bombs into a crowded forward line and sheet kicking.
I'm sure there'll be "learnings."
But it won't be from the coach.

No fwd line.

Poor kicking to go with it.

Lots of just games.

Choked in my opinion

Fritta and TMac looked like 2 guys who haven't played for months. And now we have to go the long way, without Gus or JVR.

Tmac is cooked


Literally just handed the flag to Collingwood.

Here i was thinking I had full faith in Goodwin, but how wrong was i. We're heading for a straight set exit in finals two years in a row purely of arrogant teams selections and senior players failing to stand up when needed.

McDonald, Salem, Chandler Laurie were absolutely trash.

Petracca and Gawn were the only ones willing to stand up but unfortunately the rest didn't want to follow.

McDonald can honestly retire for all i care. Needed that goal to just completely turn the game and he had a mare.

So disappointing.

I agree, JJ would have been better.  He was barely sighted (On tv) like a few of our players. 

Wet weather. Play slow. Kick behinds. Lose.

 

Effectively killed our season in that first quarter. We knew that’s what they’d bring, more than anything else about the game. Match them, and it was ours to lose. Let them get a more than 3 goal jump, and it would be too much. That we failed to stop them is enormously disappointing and frustrating. But we just weren’t up to it. Hope it’s not a wasted chance at a flag, but it’s sure looking that way. And to any of you saying Collingwood don’t deserve to be where they are now, wake up! It’s a four quarter game.

I felt sick after Gus went down, incredibly tough for the players to come back from that. Could be career ending.

5 mins longer and we likely win that.

Incredibly frustrating game and there’s some hard questions to be asked of a number of players.

Also, Cox is the biggest piece of [censored] going round, the dive into Trac’s legs and then holding it while he twists is so incredibly dangerous

That's the sad truth brother. Fingers crossed for Gus but it's not good news.

  • GAMEDAY: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

    It's Game Day and the Demons are back on the road for their 3rd interstate game in 4 weeks as they face a fit and firing Crows at Adelaide Oval. With finals now out of our grasps what are you hoping from the Dees today?

  • WHAT’S NEXT? by The Oracle

    What’s next for a beleagured Melbourne Football Club down in form and confidence, facing  intense criticism and disapproval over some underwhelming recent performances and in the midst of a four game losing streak? Why, it’s Adelaide which boasts the best percentage in the AFL and has won six of its last seven games. The Crows are hot and not only that, the game is at the Adelaide Oval; yet another away fixture and the third in a row at a venue outside of Victoria. One of the problems the Demons have these days is that they rarely have the luxury of true home ground advantage, something they have enjoyed just once since mid April.

  • REPORT: Gold Coast

    From the start, Melbourne’s performance against the Gold Coast Suns at Peoples First Stadium was nothing short of a massive botch up and it came down in the first instance to poor preparation. Rather than adequately preparing the team for battle against an opponent potentially on the skids after suffering three consecutive losses, the Demons looking anything but sharp and ready to play in the opening minutes of the game. By way of contrast, the Suns demonstrated a clear sense of purpose and will to win. From the very first bounce of the ball they were back to where they left off earlier in the season in Round Three when the teams met at the MCG. They ran rings around the Demons and finished the game off with a dominant six goal final term. This time, they produced another dominant quarter to start the game, restricting Melbourne to a solitary point to lead by six goals at the first break, by which time, the game was all but over.

  • CASEY: Gold Coast

    Coming off four consecutive victories and with a team filled with 17 AFL listed players, the Casey Demons took to their early morning encounter with the lowly Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium with the swagger of a team that thought a win was inevitable. They were smashing it for the first twenty minutes of the game after Tom Fullarton booted the first two goals but they then descended into an abyss of frustrating poor form and lackadaisical effort that saw the swagger and the early arrogance disappear by quarter time when their lead was overtaken by a more intense and committed opponent. The Suns continued to apply the pressure in the second quarter and got out to a three goal lead in mid term before the Demons fought back. A late goal to the home side before the half time bell saw them ten points up at the break and another surge in the third quarter saw them comfortably up with a 23 point lead at the final break.

  • POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Gold Coast

    The Demons did not come to play from the opening bounce and let the Gold Coast kick the first 5 goals of the match. They then outscored the Suns for the next 3 quarters but it was too little too late and their season is now effectively over.
