I think I can find better things to do today than watch this garbage.

Good luck everyone.

Thank goodness I have to leave for work 

When you've got arguably the best ruckman in the history of the game and multiple generally considered elite midfielders and you sit 11th for clearances, it's either by design or something is seriously wrong.

    The last thing we needed to happen just happened. Watch Freo turn it into a bog hole now

    Goody likes to be best mates with all the players and it's generally a good thing, but far out these players need a good old fashioned spray. they're far too good to be making stupid mistakes so consistently 

    I'd drop five of them. But we don't have anyone to really replace them with. The fact McAdam keeps getting games is proof of this.

    Oliver needs to sit the rest of the season out and work what the f...is wrong with himself

     

     

    We have poor skills and no leg speed. When our defensive pressure is off, we are a bottom 4 side

    Midfield getting absolutely smashed around the ground as usual.

    But no, according to the clueless Binman it's not the midfield issue 😅

    Nah, this was a loading week, just overdid the training to make sure we’re good for the September we probably won’t be playing in.

    Best opening quarter by Freo all year. Tell me this is not the most Melbourne thing to give up. Just embarrassing. 

    This has been a Goodwin trait ever year bar 2021. Teams always seem to have "their best quarter for the season" against us.

    Cripps level time

    Daicos time

    Everyone else gets pinged 

    Our core players are no longer consistently impacting games. They float in and out of games and even get beaten by their direct opponents now. The best teams have stars who always dominate. Our stars are fading sadly.

    Q1

    Poor first qtr. poor turnovers  Slow  slow slow

    Turnovers.  It’s lazy play. Rivers. Bowey. Sparrow.  Invited Freo in . Waiting for our mistakes  - mistakes mistakes  more mistakes 

    Langdon  not ever chasing  

    McAdam could not kick 30 metre !!! 

    Sparrow fumbles. Fumbles. 
    ANB fumbles. Fumbles. 
    Oliver pick it up  

    Oliver in middle  free free  turns kicks it 20 metres sideways and not attack  !! Lazy - why not attack !!! 

    Pickett. Forget the left foot when you are free.  Grubber to nothing !!  

    WHATS NEEDED … SIMPLE SO [censored] SIMPLE 

    MOVE THE BALL QUICKLY 

    ATTACK NOT SUDEWAYS 

    NOT 7 HANDBALLS TO TURNOVER - so 2011!!!

    coaching tips from Desanto

    play the percentages 

    Take territory into forward 50

    kick to field position - not wide 

    Quick decision making 

    👏👏👏👏

    According to Binman, 99 problems but the midfield ain’t one 🤣

    Getting absolutely smashed in the middle. We will lose every game this year to teams who have a decent midfield.

    McAdam couldn’t make the distance the last 2 weeks but that was put down to learning the Melbourne system.

    This! Bump

    He's delusional. 

    About as good as his excuse of loading the past few year to no advantage.

    Everyone else can see its a midfield issue except him.

    Why is the worst handball team in the league insisting on over using handball?

    Yes yes yes. Handball into trouble. So 2011!!! Overhandballing again. Goodwin is fuc-Jed as a coach. 

    Way too many purple Guernsey around the stands for a Dees home game. 😬

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.

    • REPORT: North Melbourne

      I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

    • CASEY: Werribee

      The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

    • PREGAME: Carlton

      The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
