How bad must that have been.

I was there, it was bad but understandable, we had a shizen side playing one of great sides of any era on their own dung heap. I am not sure this isn’t worse!

We will make the eight.

We will be seventh.

This is a club very much in decline as evidenced by the players we have recruited and kept in Schache, Hunter, McAdam, Fullerton, Bbb....to name a few.

Where players like Petty gets gifted game after game because there is simply no replacement.

We need to rebuild are list and that takes time.

Today is not an aberration. It happened two weeks ago against the eagles. And before that to Carlton and the lions.

We can be competitive but the difference between our best and worst is vast.

Our once touted midfield is alas no longer functioning like it used to and we have one good fwd in Fritta.

Today is ample proof of our deterioration.

You cannot downplay the game plan it needed to change after 22, I have said it once and will say it again one paced midfield a forward line that is non functional and what will change, nothing.

Feeble.

Poor.

Miserable.

Sad.

Wretched. 

Pitiful.

This is worse that 186. We have stars on every line. Premiership players galore. It's a diabolical performance. Geelong were the best team in the comp in 2011., and we were garbage. Freo are bottom half of the 8 at best. I'm a positive footy fan, but this is a disgrace.

When you have everything to play for and do this - you’re a disgrace of an outfit.

Every single line is out of its depth and playing below itself. There are lots of reasons why we’re this bad but we don’t have a single line that is performing and that’s just abysmal.

We have a right to deserve more effort. I don’t expect to win every week but we MUST at least show something!

For who?

I'd prefer anyone.

Can't be much worse and at least a statement is made.

But your right, some terrible recruiting and lack of thereof,by us leaves us with nobody else.

Why are we loading so heavily at this time in the season?

Cus we have a bye coming up, and to have a better set of legs come September! 
 

This is hilarious reading the mania.. it’s genuinely cheered me up — knowing how silly supporters get (me inc many times I’m sure in the past) from one game! If you can’t see there’s something desp right about one side and wrong with the other then you’re either blind or delirious.. 

 

Lets see how many of these same names bob-back-up in a few wks saying “it was the turning point” or it was “an outlier” result.. 

Sure, I may be 💯 wrong but this team right here has proven over and over they’re made of the right stuff and jumping-off to me seems to be the antithesis of an erudite Demon fan.

Its awful, my 10yr old footy nut daughter — who is someone that lives and breathes footy (playing/supporting) is an absolute mess right now as she’s never seen this, has no reference for it at ALL.. So I’ll be dammed if I’m gonna encourage her to be a fire-weather supporter! Not saying anyone here is, but I’m saying we have a choice to go we react & im choosing to trust this group as that’s what their history has proven!

Sack Goodwin! The game plan sucks and it’s the blueprint to beat us laid before us, as it has been by so many sides now

And which Freo started with our first loss in Rnd 11, 2022 and have had our measure since

This is not one game tho. We have been average all season. Other than Geelong, and maybe Port, who are both non contenders, what quality team have we beaten this season? 
We are playing like an average team, when we should be pushing for a flag.

Petty has one disposal in three quarters of football. Needs to be dropped ASAP.

Be fair… he’s had 2… one kick, one handball 🤣

There’s something poetic about Wagner not being able to get a game with us when we were trash….and now he’s playing for the opposition while we’re trash 😂

This has been on the cards for a while. Good that has happened now so hopefully something can be done for the sake of this list - forget this year. It has been ruined by poor coaching and skill execution. 
 

A team that has trouble scoring against the #2 scores against team will kick over 20 goals. Goodwin hand in your resignation-  you have lost the players.

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last

    LIFE SUPPORT by Whispering Jack

    With Melbourne’s season hanging on a thread, Saturday night’s game against North Melbourne unfolded like a scene in a hospital emergency department.  The patient presented to the ward in a bad way. Doctors and nurses pumped life-saving medication into his body and, in the ensuing half hour, he responded with blood returning to his cheeks as he stirred back to life. After a slight relapse, the nurses pumped further medication into the bloodstream and the prognosis started looking good as the

    GAMEDAY: Rd 15 vs North Melbourne

    It's Game Day and it very well could be the last roll of the dice for the Demon's finals aspirations in 2024. A loss to the bottom side would be another embarrassing moment in a cursed year for the Dees whilst a win could be the spark they need to reignite the fire in the belly.

    THE HUNTER by The Oracle

    Something struck me as I sat on the couch watching the tragedy of North Melbourne’s attempt to beat Collingwood unfold on Sunday afternoon at the MCG.    It was three quarter time, the scoreboard had the Pies on 12.7.79, a respectable 63.16% in terms of goal kicking ratio. Meanwhile, the Roos’ 18.2.110 was off the charts at 90.00% shooting accuracy. I was thinking at the same time of Melbourne’s final score only six days before, a woeful 6.15.51 or 28.57% against Collingwood’s 14.5.89

    FROZEN by Whispering Jack

    Who would have thought?    Collingwood had a depleted side with several star players out injured, Max Gawn was in stellar form, Christian Petracca at the top of his game and Simon Goodwin was about to pull off a masterstroke in setting Alex Neal-Bullen onto him to do a fantastic job in subduing the Magpies' best player. Goody had his charges primed to respond robustly to the challenge of turning around their disappointing performance against Fremantle in Alice Springs. And if not that, t
