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 isnโ€™t worse!ย

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.

Pathetic.

Uninspiring.

Weak.

Gutless.

Embarrassing.

Ordinary.

Feeble.

Poor.

Miserable.

Sad.

Wretched.ย 

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 - youโ€™re a disgrace of an outfit.

Every single line is out of its depth and playing below itself. There are lots of reasons why weโ€™re this bad but we donโ€™t have a single line that is performing and thatโ€™s just abysmal.

We have a right to deserve more effort. I donโ€™t expect to win every week but we MUST at least show something!

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!ย

This is hilarious reading the mania.. itโ€™s genuinely cheered me up โ€” knowing how silly supporters get (me inc many times Iโ€™m sure in the past) from one game! If you canโ€™t see thereโ€™s something desp right about one side and wrong with the other then youโ€™re either blind or delirious..ย 

ย 

Lets see how many of these same names bob-back-up in a few wks saying โ€œit was the turning pointโ€ or it was โ€œan outlierโ€ result..ย 

Sure, I may be ๐Ÿ’ฏ wrong but this team right here has proven over and over theyโ€™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 โ€” who is someone that lives and breathes footy (playing/supporting) is an absolute mess right now as sheโ€™s never seen this, has no reference for it at ALL.. So Iโ€™ll be dammed if Iโ€™m gonna encourage her to be a fire-weather supporter! Not saying anyone here is, but Iโ€™m saying we have a choice to go we react & im choosing to trust this group as thatโ€™s what their history has proven!

Sack Goodwin! The game plan sucks and itโ€™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

You left out- That's not us and Learnings.

Sack Neeld now! Wonder if Paul Roos is available. Season 2013 just needs to end already.ย

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?ย 
We are playing like an average team, when we should be pushing for a flag.ย

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

Be fairโ€ฆ heโ€™s had 2โ€ฆ one kick, one handball ๐Ÿคฃ

Thereโ€™s something poetic about Wagner not being able to get a game with us when we were trashโ€ฆ.and now heโ€™s playing for the opposition while weโ€™re trash ๐Ÿ˜‚

Where's the pride?

With the rest of us watching on TV

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.ย 
ย 

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

Too many people at this club just content to be getting a wage, including the coaches!! [censored] poor and embarrassing.

  • PREVIEW: Essendon

    Not long ago, the narrative surrounding Melbourne was steeped in pessimism. There was some concern among the pundits (and even some fans) that the club would arrive at the AFLโ€™s Gather Round still winless, vulnerable to a familiar adversary in the Essendon Football Club, and facing significant scrutiny from an ever-critical media on a national stage. Things have changed.

  • REPORT: Gold Coast

    Steven King astutely identified the issues that had plagued the Melbourne Football Club over the past two and a half seasons when he auditioned for the newly created coaching role. The side that had claimed the 2021 premiership had become stodgy, slow-paced, and hesitant to take the initiative.ย

  • PODCAST: Gold Coast

    Iโ€™ll be away for the next few weeks, so Binman will be holding the fort for our podcasts covering the Suns, Bombers and Lions matches. As a result, there will be no live podcasts during this period, and we wonโ€™t be taking calls or voicemails. Binman will still be dipping into this thread to select a few questions to answer, while also combining the long-form Stats Files podcast with the Demonland Podcast for these shows. Your questions and comments are a huge part of what makes the podcast work, so please post anything youโ€™d like to ask or say below and weโ€™ll do our best to give you a shout-out on the show. Please try to keep each post focused on one specific topic or player to make podcast preparation a little easier. If you have multiple topics youโ€™d like to raise, please put them in separate posts.
