I’m confused as to whether it’s decision making or execution with some of these kicks. We’re not going anywhere this year

its both

    Looks like a bottom 8 clash right now. I'm seriously worried about this season. I thought we'd fixed a lot of what undid us in 22 and 23 from rounds 1-4 but the last 2 weeks have been a real step backward.

    My prediction is the Tigers will throw everything they can muster at us early.

    Possibly even heading into half-time in front. 

    Then this particular thread will become a place of darkness. Season over. Certain players will be told to never play for us again. 

    Then the more well-rounded team (ours) will systematically carve it’s way to a 42-point win. 

    Hooray! 
     

     

    All going to plan, folks.

    Structure excellent, intercept game on but no execution whatsoever.

    if we are struggling to score against a VFL team, what the [censored] will happen against Geelong's defence. FFS

    We barely scored 30+ for 3 quarters against Brisbane so...

    Why would Lever do that?

    He was under no pressure at all and just kicks it straight in the middle as if passing to a tigers player.

    What has happened to our skills?

    The disturbing thing is that the really poor kicking has been under practically no pressure at all. None!

    How are we going to go in the next 3 weeks once the blow torch is applied.

    It's been years since I've seen such poor skills by this team. 

    After last week against the Lions. I'm perplexed.

    Have we considered simply not kicking it to Richmond players while under no pressure?

    Might be worth looking into.

    • Haha 1

    This is awesome. Getting beaten by the behemoths that were beaten by the eagles. Currently 16th!

    How have we regressed? This is not a fatigue thing. We’ve had plennnttty of rest. Poor skills, no vision. 3 goals in a half. 

    Two bottom 8 teams going at it right now.

    Pathetic 

    Melbourne beating Melbourne tonight. Absolute horrid turnovers resulting in direct Richmond goals.

    That is the most lifeless, leaderless, selfish half of footy I can recall by us. There is a lack of run, effort, dare. Some of the worst kicking execution and decision making I can recall. Where is this alleged "brand that our supporters can be proud of". Pull your finger out Dees.

    Rabble of a performance

    I50 delivery has been deplorable

    Max had the opportunity to hit up Fritsch on the lead...so he blazes at goal and stuffs the kick... disgusting from our captain, should handball more

    Have any of our players kicked a footy in the past 13 days? This is just embarrassing. 

    The most frustrating half of football I've watched in 5 years. Turnover central

    And there will be no crutch of 3 game in 13 days fatigue for this one. Sorry guys 

    Folks we are a mid ladder team.

    Temper your expectations, we have disposal that is laughable along with low IQ decision making. The pressure turns up, we turn to water.

    This is a depleted Richmond side we are playing.

    yep, not looking good. we are seriously unable to score, same ole for how many seasons now?

    We've given them a huge sniff.

    No excuses re three matches in thirteen tonight.

    This is as bad as we've played since the 2019 horror show.

    • Thank You Simon Goodwin

      As Demon fans, we’ve ridden a rollercoaster of emotions over the decades; the heartbreaks, the near misses, the wooden spoons, and the endless waiting. But through it all, we clung to hope. And then came Simon Goodwin. Before he ever wore red and blue, he was a champion in his own right. A five-time All-Australian, two-time Best and Fairest, and two-time premiership hero and Captain with Adelaide, Simon Goodwin was always destined to lead. When he transitioned from the field to the coach's box, first as an assistant at Essendon, he began shaping a new legacy.

    • PREVIEW: Western Bulldogs

      Long ago and far away, the Melbourne Football Club replaced its coach in difficult circumstances after the team suffered a devastating loss. In the aftermath, I penned the following words: “Then came the politics, the intrigue, the axing, the sound of the football world laughing at a club, the circling of the media vultures, the reinvention of history, the anger, the irony, the pathos, the hurt on the face of the president, the dignified departure of the coach, and the determination of the newly appointed caretaker.” Today, we’re back in the same place although one difference here is that the coach who was terminated this time is Simon Goodwin, the man who four years ago

    • REPORT: West Coast

      The Charles Dickens novel, A Tale of Two Cities, opens with, “It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, …”  This phrase highlights many of the significant challenges that humanity encounters in life, ranging from experiencing remarkable highs to living in times of despair. This is a concept that should resonate with all supporters of the Melbourne Football Club this morning as they reflect on its comprehensive 83-point victory over the struggling West Coast Eagles at Marvel Stadium. The outcome proved beyond doubt that they are the worst of clubs and that we are the best of the worst.

      With only 3 games to go, all against Top 8 fancies, the Demons face a daunting task as they return to the MCG when they play the Western Bulldogs. Who comes in and who goes out?

      The Demons return to town fresh off a thumping win over the back-to-back wooden spooners, the West Coast Eagles, played in front of a sparse crowd at Marvel Stadium, the same venue that hosted last week's heartbreaking loss.
