Our backline needs to man up on their opponents.

Why does Laurie get selected?

Gee we really only have one really effective midfielder and Moore rammed his knee into his kidneys.

 

Dark days ahead. At least in the Neeld years I had no expectations.

    I’d be looking to move on some value whilst it’s still there. We have good talent coming through in Windsor, Pickett, Howes, Bowey, Rivers and Sparrow. I’d be looking to cash in Petracca. Gawn, Viney and May will slow down. We need to replenish our stocks.

    Keep Petracca, cash in Oliver.

    Nothing to do with it. Sacking coaches is generally a backward step, it's all on the players. Both North and the Suns brought in "star" coaches and the differences are marginal at best. Improvement can only come through the list.

    So who will we pick with pick 4 in the draft. That must have been the shortest dynasty in history.

    You seriously think we can go MORE backward. Am being quite literal.

    No way we are making the 8. Goodwin lost this team weeks ago. Our game style, if you lose the side, it becomes evident. 

    Reminds me of. the Neeld days. Dark days!

    Blow it up, make some hard decisions on the trade table and hit the draft. We're cooked.

    Do we have our first round pick this year?

    Just checked the scores.

    Any chance of a miraculous come from behind win?

    I want to unload on this team. But I’ll hold my tongue. I stopped watching after quarter time and I’m glad I did.

    where was the response? The first 5 mins told me all I needed to know. The season is shot, the window is shut and we will likely be clear dwellers for the next while. 
     

    Id be looking to do a mini reset end of year. Move on players and coaches. Retire a few and look to a new game plan that can flex on contest and ball movement. It’ll take a few years for it take hold and become finals ready. 
     

    All I can say is I’m really disappointed in this club.

    I guess he'll be satisfied only when we become North and win 3 wooden spoons in a row. If you are a serious organisation need to make the hard decisions when necessary, not just wait until it all falls apart.

    I suppose Trac with broken ribs was actually more effective than Billings

    We are playing soft football

    This. 

    Ironically after all the talk from all and sundry that last week's weak effort wasn't acceptable.

    News flash MFC, neither is this.

    Bruise free footy with poor skills thrown in for a laugh.

    The manic play on with errant handballs and a backline that doesn't communicate.

    What a waste of a day watching this tripe.

    As long as Petty gets dropped....oh wait .

    And Maynard hasn't even been tickled.

    Last week was a dark one but today hasn't been much better.

    Perhaps the club won't say anything after today's loss. One can only hope. But they won't. They'll roll out some tripe about something. Spare us please .

    If you can't come out and make a statement against a club that silenced one of our most beloved and best players then forget about anything else.

    2024 season RIP.

    • PREGAME: Western Bulldogs

      With only 3 games to go, all against Top 8 fancies, the Demons face a daunting task as they return to the MCG when they play the Western Bulldogs. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      The Demons return to town fresh off a thumping win over the back-to-back wooden spooners, the West Coast Eagles, played in front of a sparse crowd at Marvel Stadium, the same venue that hosted last week's heartbreaking loss.

    • PREVIEW: West Coast

      It was bad enough that the Melbourne Football Club created yet another humiliating scenario inside its wretched season at Marvel Stadium last Sunday, but the final insult is that it has been commanded to return to the scene of the crime to inflict further punishment on its fans this week. Incidentally, if this match preview, of a game that promises to be one of the most unattractive fixtures in the history of the game, happens to cut out of your computer screen three quarters of the way through, it’s no coincidence. I’ll be mirroring the Demons’ lacklustre effort against St Kilda from last Sunday when they conceded the largest last quarter turnaround for victory in the history of the game.

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.
