POSTGAME: Rd 15 vs North Melbourne

[chook fowler 19,551]

A pyrrhic victory. Hard to get excited. Forward line is still a big problem especially Fritsch who let a youngster in Archer wipe the floor with him. 

[biggestred 5,140]

Worst possible result.

No big win

No inquest resulting from a loss

I love hate us so much

[YesitwasaWin4theAges 6,708]

How far we have fallen, f kn embarrassing to watch.

Great tackle young Kynan.

[ElDiablo14 5,002]

Our percentage is very reflective of our season, very mid.

[Demon Disciple 12,274]

All aboard the SS Sinking Ship.

[Undeeterred 3,124]

Time to burn the place down and start again. 

[DutchDemons 1,430]

Loved that tackle by Brown at the end. Our problems are mental. At least we got a win, hopefully that settles us a bit.

[watchtheeyes 1,422]

You’d be heartbroken but so enthusiastic if you were a north supporter.. so much to like in that performance

Did you watch that last quarter? That definitely wasn’t the worst possible result.

[layzie 34,013]

Don't blame the umpires, we were garbage in that last quarter. Look within 

[Devil In Disguise 2,278]

The rules must have been changed again but nobody told us if you move on the mark when the player feigns a handball it is 50. That is bull dust! Cost us another goal. Putrid call.

[The heart beats true 18,145]

I was just at the ground. When the siren went I just got up and walked out.

The 50 metres to Windsor was right in front of me: to the letter of the law that’s a 50. THE EXACT SAME THING HAPPENED TO TMAC 2 MINUTES LATER - AND NO 50. 

The players were going berserk. The standard of umpiring can’t even be consistent for 3 minutes.

The AFL is losing me. The umpiring is so inconsistent. Everyone waffles on about ‘the game is so hard to umpire’. It’s not an accident. It’s happening too often, and making them too much money.

I can only imagine the Collingwood fans last week. reigning premiers and only won by 1 point

Assume they didn’t celebrate or sing the song?

I am gobsmacked by that. Scoreless in the last quarter. Holding the ball whenever we had it on the wing and letting them flood.

We have zero confidence. Zero synergy. No structure. 

We are poorly coached and playing like huge plodders. We are bottom 4 the way we are playing.

Surely no one could defend Simon on that call…. It was embarrassing

A relaxing evening spent watching our boys establish their premiership credentials on the hallowed turf. Can only assume positive comments in game day thread and this one. I hope Steven May’s head is ok too. That looked very nasty.

I think they are saying at least if they came over the top of us we’d be looking at getting rid of a coach who has obviously lost the players 

[P-man 13,366]

Be gentle, Brisbane.

[BrisbaneDemon 1,572]

We’re in such a hole, how is our forward line getting worse.

 

Clarry gave away 5 free kicks tonight, $1 million a year he is being paid by us, what an absolute joke.

 

estatic I’m going to the game next week…..

[YesitwasaWin4theAges 6,708]

34 points up in the 3rd and we serve that shy te up in the last.

Happy for the young lads tonight.

Mate game day was a cracker today

[rufus 1,162]

We are a diabolical football team. 15 scoring shots against a bunch of kids. Overrun by a team we have huge amounts of experience over.

This club is quickly sending us back to the depths.

Like it or not, it is very simple. We are the softest football club in the land. We have been for a long time. We had an aberration for about 15 months a few years ago but normal service is resumed...we are always gettable because we have soft players on every line, and as a club we've never demanded anything else.

[DemonWA 3,936]

At this point I'll take any win we can get. 

Carn Dees 🤌

[layzie 34,013]

Don't know what was worse, England's performance after Kane's goal or us after half time.
