It's pretty bad but there is a part of me that wants us to be smashed so we do something. 

But then I don't think there is anything we can do.

Our list is in disarray.

We have McAdam, Bbb and Schache on our list.

My only hope is that Half of the coaching staff is changed. The 2022-2023 plan feels tired and ineffective in the current AFL.

I am feeling very down for next week, poor Gus I hope he doesn't have to witness some rubbish like this on KB.

Is anyone still playing .....

Freo evidently. Not too sure if any MFC players are on the ground though

 

UOf course amiss doesn't miss against us. This is going to be a percentage killer, a top 4 killer & maybe a top8 killer

U think it’s the mids? Today has been contest in general not just the mids imho I mean seeing O‘meara be made to look like Ablett hurts but I’m not sure it’s all mids we’ve just been off our game completely trying to be some sort of cutting kick team which we’re not.. it’s certainly just very strange we’re at sea without a boat let alone a paddle!!! 

No it's a collective as a whole.

But it's starts in the coalface and we've been absolutely smashed with barely any clean forward entries.


Switched it off after that last goal... I'm going to go do some work...   

This is worse than the eagles game.  Freo came to play and we didn't except for a couple of players. No hard running and supporting teammates, so Freo can easily have an out option and move the ball.  

No miracle comeback in this one.

Getting smashed and people are blaming the umpires? Come on. 
First to the ball = first to the free. 

When decisions like HTB are paid one way we have every right to talk about it. Would never happen to Pies or Blues.

If the entire team doesn’t have Covid or explosive diarrhea, then I have no idea what is the possible excuse for this embarrassing performance 

Wait for the 'learnings' rubbish at the press conference.


Honestly Goodwin the commentators are saying no structural changes?? Really losing by 10 goals wtf

Tell why Goodwin contract was extended last year??? Won’t play finals & want see a flag at the G, our trading since the flag, schache, Hunter, billing’s, mcadam, Fullerton, vs what’s left Jackson, Grundy, Harmes, Jordan ..  there is your answer 

Yes we have killed a list in 3 years 

incredible really

But this takes away from the real issue. The ****ty umpires will never change. 


North Melbourne would be closer to Fremantle than we are right now. let that sink in. 

Disco playing down back totally inspirational move Badloss!

In any good club, players are very mindful of the pressure to perform.

Simply if they don't perform they have to play in the twos.

Since we stopped recruiting and let some good players leave we don't have enough players in the twos for such pressure to exist.

So we get sloppy efforts from players who know they will get a game regardless.

We need a rebuild I'm afraid.

And the reality of that means a few great players of today won't see another flag.

New ideas are needed to keep pushing the side forward.  Yze bought in new ideas that had impact and success.  His replacement doesn't seem to had the same impact.  We need to go and find a high quality senior assistant to challenge Goodwin and push the team.  


The only positive about today is Uncle Bitters not trekking to the red center!

The problem is Goodwin never gives this side a bake. I know it's going back to old school & nobody does that these days but sometimes they need a rocket.

Other coaches still do it

He's bestie with most of the players, specially the leadership group. How can we expect him to apply some accountability?

Does anyone else want a 100 point loss so something can change? 

Not thinking I'll need to WANT it.....

 

I do realise I could not play football at much of a level, and I remember winning 1 game in two years. 
but McAdam, Petty Turner need not turn up for training 

I can see only Viney, AnB ,Kozzy perhaps and perhaps again Tomlinson care at all 

that’s my perception. Watching on the TV

North will have their first win against us.

Mark it down.

I think some peeps have been a bit spoiled.. I wish I could make it so that when you jump-off this quickly you can’t enjoy the high-rides but I know where you’re coming from and would’ve once felt similar but this is a perfect day for a team that’s choc-full of confidence and we’re barely there! Maybe this is a butt-smashing we need?
 

 No reason it can’t be.. I choose to keep faith, everything’s going right for them and it’s evident they’re chasing in. I can’t smash a team that’s given me so much resounding reasons to trust them.. I mean look at that Serong Goal for goodness sake off back if DARCY lucky goal and Frederick boundary goal, that’s just bananas & good on em!

We’ll bounce back next week.. you don’t lose ability overnight for goodness sake! 
 

Harden up ppl, it’s a crappy day — move fwd.

  • POSTGAME: St. Kilda

    After kicking the first goal of the match the Demons were always playing catch up against the Saints in Alice Spring and could never make the most of their inside 50 entries to wrestle back the lead.
