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.

    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.

    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: Geelong

      I was disappointed to hear Goody say at his post match presser after the team’s 39 point defeat against Geelong that "we're getting high quality entry, just poor execution" because Melbourne’s problems extend far beyond that after its 0 - 4 start to the 2025 football season. There are clearly problems with poor execution, some of which were evident well before the current season and were in play when the Demons met the Cats in early May last year and beat them in a near top-of-the-table clash that saw both sides sitting comfortably in the top four after round eight. Since that game, the Demons’ performances have been positively Third World with only five wins in 19 games with a no longer majestic midfield and a dysfunctional forward line that has become too easy for opposing coaches to counter. This is an area of their game that is currently being played out as if they were all completely panic-stricken.

    • PREGAME: Essendon

      Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

    • NON-MFC: Round 04

      Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

    • POSTGAME: Geelong

      The Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, falling to 0–4 after a more spirited showing against the Cats at Kardinia Park. Despite the improved effort, they went down by 39 points, and the road ahead is looking increasingly grim.
