    Get Laurie off the ground now. Can't find the ball. Drops uncontested marks. Can't hit a target. Playing a man down here.

    I really don't know how much longer I can handle a Goodwin-coached Melbourne.

    We just need to elevate to 6 times their scoring shots and we'll win this.


    Did they do ANY ball handling skills over summer.  Any at all??

    Really very ordinary.

    1 goal 8, to 4 3  can never be a winning score

    Anywhere near or inside 50 is a dog's breakfast and full panic mode.  No composure from anyone

    Is he wrong though? I am astonished these comments are being made at AFL level at all, let alone for us when our whole issue is F50 connection 

    100%. It’s criminal that they’re not all on their bikes anytime the ball comes past half way

    The Roo & Shack forward .... so far 🤮

    Admittedly the delivery has been putrid also

    Shack has competed well up the ground

    Our ball handling skills are VFL level right now, dropping easy marks and fumbling the ball like amateurs.

    • GAMEDAY: St. Kilda

      It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?

    • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

      It seems like only yesterday that these two sides faced off against each other in the centre of the continent. It was when Melbourne was experiencing a rare period of success with five wins from its previous six matches including victories over both of last year’s grand finalists.  Well, it wasn’t yesterday but it was early last month and it remains etched clearly in the memory. The Saints were going through a slump and the predicted outcome of their encounter at TIO Traeger Park was a virtual no-brainer. A Melbourne victory and another step closer to a possible rise into finals contention. Something that was unthinkable after opening the season with five straight defeats.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.
