    Didn’t even watch the game. Just finished the usual run around of life and checked the scores and laughed and laughed. Gonna enjoy the press conference with a nice glass of red.

    The weekly press conferences. 
    “learnings…” 

    Our forward connections have stagnated for the last 2 Seasons and look very similar this year. 
    It’s probably a good thing we are “out” of the eight right now, might get the whole Football Department to be more Ruthless and Mean..

    unfortunately Goody has to attend those and answer questions. 

    Our fwd line is average but no easy answers. We have obviously tried many different options

    We have let forward players go to other clubs, and replaced them with inferior talent 

    That’s the bottom line

    Question without notice:

    Why do players these days feel the need to play pat-a-cake after every passage of play?

    What would a psychologist make of it, @Engorged Onion?

    You know how you get a little kick on Demonland when there is a notification - that’s dopamine. It counteracts symptoms of anxiety and depression.

    In effect, the Pat-a-cake is a behavioural activator of the same thing, in a highly stressful activity.  It’s evolved in the last 10 years, where it only used to be done after a ‘positive’ bit of play whereas now it is done irrespective of play and acknowledges the effort irrespective of the outcome or error made by an individual.

    It is good for the receivers 🧠 to more quickly get back on task - at least that’s how I explain it.

    • REPORT: Adelaide

      The atmosphere at the Melbourne Football Club at the beginning of the season was aspirational following an injury-plagued year in 2024. Coach Simon Goodwin had lofty expectations with the return of key players, the anticipated improvement from a maturing group with a few years of experience under their belts, and some exceptional young talent also joining the ranks. All of that went by the wayside as the team failed to click into action early on. It rallied briefly with a new strategy but has fallen again with five more  consecutive defeats.

    • CASEY: Coburg

      The Casey Demons returned to their home ground which was once a graveyard for opposing teams but they managed to gift the four points on offer to Coburg with yet another of their trademark displays of inaccuracy in front of goals and some undisciplined football that earned the displeasure of the umpires late in the game. The home team was welcomed by a small crowd at Casey Fields and looked right at home as it dominated the first three quarters and led for all bar the last five minutes of the game. In the end, they came away with nothing, despite winning everywhere but on the scoreboard and the free kick count.

    • PREGAME: Rd 18 vs North Melbourne

      After four weeks on the road the Demons make their long awaited return to the MCG next Sunday to play in a classic late season dead rubber against the North Melbourne Kangaroos. Who comes in and who comes out?

    • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

      The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.
