Two weeks in a row Ben Brown can barely give a bloody contest. Genuinely soft efforts for such a big guy.

Nah this ain’t it dd. I get the frustration right now, but “soft” isn’t fair on brown.

Would you wanna be a lead up forward on two cooked legs with the way our midfields going tonight? 

 

We are so easy to beat at our home ground 

They see fritsch run underneath the ball but miss hipwood with his arm around mays neck. Both were frees. They only penalized one of them

 

Questions must be asked to the coaches, can you please motivate our team week in week out?

I'm going to bed.

Haven’t felt like this for about 8 years

Yeah I’d move on some players and get some more youth in. 

I get we've been dominated tonight,  but I'm more disappointed to only have 3 goals on the board on a fine night on 3/4 time. 

We're better than this

I’m not so sure.


This is insipid.

Oliver should not be on the ground 

Haven't seen him play so poorly.

  100 marks to 50.

11 centre clearances to 4.

We stink.

No more media interviews.

Billings who.

Fritta one goal is enough from him.

Jvr too inexperienced.

Petty not sure why someone else wants you.

Bbb of old

That's it folks.

Lions came to play while we were singing our gather round wins.

Every single time we pay ourselves on the back we lose the next game.

Clockwork.

When will they stop it.

We suck.

Have a good weekend if you can.

Clearly the team has made their plans.

Our midfielders are ....well.....they lost it .

Fair to say none of us saw this coming. It’s that bad. Pre-2021, and then some. It’s like they’re all crook. Really really hard to watch. Urgggghhh.

Stop whinging about the umpiring. We are second best and lazy. 

Yes, they haven't helped and haven't missed anything against the Bears, but we just aren't up to it on the night.

Petty has done nothing 

1 tackle, no other stats.  Sad really.

This is a very non Melbourne performance.

Agree. We have no energy. 


Brown, Petty,Fritsch & van Rouen have had one kick between them up to 3/4 time

Really looking forward to the 3 word player analysis, this game is long gone.

Our goal kicking accuracy this year has masked our form. We've been average despite winning. Our inside 50 count and clearance numbers have been well down on usual form. Same thing happened early last season where our accuracy was through the roof before coming back to reality 

Bingo 

 

What's with the 15ft high handballs?

Insipid performance by our forwards and of course our senior players.

But this is genuinely pathetic for 3 quarters of footy.

  • PREGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

    With their season all over bar the shouting the Demons head back on the road for the third week in a row as they return to Adelaide to take on the Crows. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • 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.

  • PREVIEW: Gold Coast

    The Gold Coast Suns find themselves outside of the top eight for the first time since Round 1 with pressure is mounting on the entire organisation. Their coach Damien Hardwick expressed his frustration at his team’s condition last week by making a middle-finger gesture on television that earned him a fine for his troubles. He showed his desperation by claiming that Fox should pick up the tab.  There’s little doubt the Suns have shown improvement in 2025, and their position on the ladder is influenced to some extent by having played fewer games than their rivals for a playoff role at the end of the season, courtesy of the disruption caused by Cyclone Alfred in March.  However, they are following the same trajectory that hindered the club in past years whenever they appeared to be nearing their potential. As a consequence, that Hardwick gesture should be considered as more than a mere behavioral lapse. It’s a distress signal that does not bode well for the Queenslanders. While the Suns are eager to remain in contention with the top eight, Melbourne faces its own crisis, which is similarly deep-seated but in a much different way. After recovering from a disappointing start to the season and nearing a return to respectability among its peer clubs, the Demons have experienced a decline in status, driven by the fact that while their form has been reasonable (see their performance against the ladder leader in the Kings Birthday match), their conversion in front of goal is poor enough to rank last in the competition. Furthermore, their opponents find them exceptionally easy to score against. As a result, they have effectively eliminated themselves from the finals race and are again positioned to finish in the bottom half of the ladder.
