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.

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

    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: 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.
