We’ll finish next year top 4 again and with any luck injury wise we’ll be a real chance again. Having no consistent forward structure is always going to be a big ask in September. We win everywhere else.  
 

I love following the Dee’s while we finish top 4 year after year, I’ll take this over the neeld era any day. Catch ya next year DL 

Will you feel the same if this group only deliver the 21 flag?

Honestly we need to expect better from this group, straight set exits don't cut it.

Disgraceful waste of a season. Pickett’s poor discipline has cost us big time - what a joke he gets 800k per year. I never want to see TMac play in the senior side ever again. Get a new forward line coach ASAP. We are mentally soft and deserve to be called chokers. 

Its definitely no where near 800k for Kozzy.

Also, we sure have a lot of players that cannot keep their feet. You would thought they were playing on a ground they'd never set foot on.

On a dry deck FMD 🤦🏻‍♂️

You could just see what was going to happen that whole last quarter, chance after chance, miss after miss.

Skills have digressed exponentially.

Key Forward our No.1 target in the off season.

Not going to point any fingers.

Need a coaching panel clearout.

Nothing went our way this year after Petty's injury.

The Dees are the Greg Norman of football , chokers .  We need to get rid of some players BB ,T.Mac, Harmes , Jordon ,Schache , Grundy the most expensive back up ruckman in afl history and Goody , the reserves coach ,Richardson,Pert that's for starters .I would include the fitness coach . This club makes me sick.

Don't forget the boot studder.

In hindsight Petty going down injured can't be underestimated.

Not to mention Melksham (the way he was playing) plus Brayshaw - compare Bayshaw's output to Jordan's. Then throw in the suspension to JVR.

Whats everyones fav cost us the game moment. Kossies silly free in the first quarter, Gawns two misses or the goal he touched on the line. The ARC overturn that was not asked for. just to many to pick the one.

May was massive. Sparrow in the last, very good. A wise man once told me never to email (but I’m going to apply to it posting in this case), when angry, upset or otherwise emotional, so I’m going to leave it at that. I’ll be back. 

I just had a rant, feel better getting it off my chest. I regret nothing :D.

Agree. Chuck in Hibberd or Grundy, schace or anyone in place of tmac in the last 25 mins and they would've offered something which is not than nothing we go from tmac

Did Tmac have a touch in the last? He was beyond disgusting tonight.

F@#$% can't believe this.... again we fail to put the game away should have been a 4 goal win....

And the umpires omg... wtf is going on AFL

We said the same last year, bad luck... bad luck with I juries...

I am.afraid this can scar psychologically the group.

Lots of mental work to do in the offseason.

They play like they're already scarred.

Just put it in the context that while he had a poor finals series, Jack Viney carried us for a large portion of the season.

Gawn was best on field last week and played his heart out tonight.

There were a heap more reasons we lost tonight before you point the finger at the two hardest players in our club.

Pull your head in.

Vineys kick resulted in the winning goal for Carlton. Mind you he had time and space to kick better.

The balance on the forward line was immediately ruined when Melksham went down. Who would of thought he'd be so key.

 So 96,000 is not a big crowd?

Did you hear the noise for them vs us???? lol not even close to equal. It was a Carlton crowd, clearly. 

Just now, Superunknown said:

I’m bullish on next year actually 

I’m not at all unless Straight Sets Simon can get out of his own way and manage the list properly.

Also as has been said many times before a total refocus on skills needs to happen.

Too many slopppy players (Petracca and Hunter), poor kicking and just not doing the fundamentals well.

Not having any talk about us being overrated.. we are the best side in it, should have won last week.

This will be the flag we gave away.. mark my words, our biggest chance blown!

We are not the best side in it 

We have lost 4 Home Finals….

 

Why did we give Schache another year if we can't trust him to outperform that last quarter of TMac? Embarrassing

  • REPORT: Port Adelaide

    Of course, it’s not the backline, you might argue and you would probably be right. It’s the boot studder (do they still have them?), the midfield, the recruiting staff, the forward line, the kicking coach, the Board, the interchange bench, the supporters, the folk at Casey, the head coach and the club psychologist  It’s all of them and all of us for having expectations that were sufficiently high to have believed three weeks ago that a restoration of the Melbourne team to a position where we might still be in contention for a finals berth when the time for the midseason bye arrived. Now let’s look at what happened over the period of time since Melbourne overwhelmed the Sydney Swans at the MCG in late May when it kicked 8.2 to 5.3 in the final quarter (and that was after scoring 3.8 to two straight goals in the second term).

  • CASEY: Essendon

    Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

    The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

    The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
