I feel so depressed.

I have never almost cried after a defeat, but the tears were close to coming after today.

But you've all hit the nail on the head here; we cannot expect to win when we kick two points in an entire thirty minutes of football.

It is just absurd.

And so is the fact that McLean eats a kilo of yoghurt every day.

The club has gone mad.

Why did Johnson play on :(

Don't blame him. He had no one in front of him and was practically standing on the line. Anyone else would have done it. It was just unfortuante.

Why did Johnson play on :(

why did we stand still when the last kick out was about to be taken

why was no one on the other side of the ruck contest friom that boundary throw in amongst the 4 roo player

why is the coach still there

why was green playing back pocket

why did ward stand 10 meters away from grant in the 3rd quater at the 50m mark

why did ward and brown get a game

why did we have 5 talls and no crumber in our F50 so when we kicked it in they just ran it out with ease

why did we handball all day long to someone 2 foot away

why did ward ask for the handball from carrol when he was 3 inches away

why, why why

we didnt deserve to win that game, but it just shows that we are lacking leadership on and off the ground, a game plan and the brains to play smart football

oh yeah and the roos are not that good, actually a very average team

We lost the game in the first 3 quarters, thats what make it so frustrating. They seem to persist at kicking the long bomb hoping Neitz or Robbo could take a big mark, a defenders dream. They Finally changed tack and we nearly won. I cant take much more of this. Someone has the take the blame and at the end of the day it lies with the coaches.

as pezza alludes.. ( though mabe for differing reasons ) the score belies the reality.

Th eroos ough tto have shat all over us save for one quarter of decent footy and the inability of the roos to find the big sticks today.

I wont discuss the coaching.. we all know about it.. for a chnage I'll point straight at the players for th most part.

A couple of areas let us down week in week out. We have the inability to deliver a ball in any meaningful way constantly putting the next demon inthe firing line or off his stride. Its just plain pathetic to watch. Again I say we cant as a team kick for nuts !!...and preceding any ability to kick is out decision making... do we have any.. time after time we sell our players into hospital situatoin...do they have shares in MBF or something! also exaple... Johnson not thinking at crucial moment of game....that could have won it..instead it stuffed it up !! well done fool !! cant blame him for poor thinking...he just DIDNT think !!.

We arent a team...quite frankly we are a shambles...the score flattered us...again !!.

Still no closer to a win !!

now where are all those who thought we wouldnt be 9 for none now ??.

good to see some glimpes of footy today...unfortunately you have to do it for the majority of the 120 ?? we cant ..simple as that.

No it was bad judgement. How did he conclude that he was free to do it?

He clearly wasn't.

But its just one of many things mainly in the first 3 quarters that buried us.

He was just unlucky. You call him a fool .... he was a big reason for our last qtr comeback, he played superbly. Gibson made a freak tackle, it was just one of those things. You ask any player in the league, including the high and mighty Judd, and they would have played on as well.

You are the fool.

Would of been a joke if we won.

Totally Agree with you FitZ. A team can't get away with a win by only placing 1 good quarter of footy. We saw in the space of a half, Melbourne's best and worst. All i ask for is 4-quarters of football. That's not asking much is it? I mean that's what they're paid to do, right?

    GETAWAY by Meggs

    Calling all fit players. Expect every available Melbourne player to board the Virgin cross-continent flight to Perth for this Round 4 clash on Saturday afternoon at Fremantle Oval. It promises to be keenly contested, though Fremantle is the bookies clear favourite.  If we lose, finals could be remoter than Rottnest Island especially following on from the Dees 50-point dismantlement by North Melbourne last Sunday.  There are 8 remaining matches, over the next 7 weeks.  To Meggs’

    DRUBBING by Meggs

    With Casey Fields basking in sunshine, an enthusiastic throng of young Demons fans formed a guard of honour for the evergreen and much admired 75-gamer Paxy Paxman. As the home team ran out to play, Paxy’s banner promised that the Demons would bounce back from last week’s loss to Brisbane and reign supreme.   Disappointingly, the Kangaroos dominated the match to win by 50 points, but our Paxy certainly did her bit.  She was clearly our best player, sweeping well in defence.

    GARNER STRENGTH by Meggs

    In keeping with our tough draw theme, Week 3 sees Melbourne take on flag favourites, North Melbourne, at Casey Fields this Sunday at 1:05pm.  The weather forecast looks dry, a coolish 14 degrees and will be characteristically gusty.  Remember when Casey Fields was considered our fortress?  The Demons have lost two of their past three matches at the Field of Dreams, so opposition teams commute down the Princes Highway with more optimism these days.  The Dees held the highe

    ALLY’S FIELDS by Meggs

    It was a sunny morning at Casey Fields, as Demon supporters young and old formed a guard of honour for fan favourite and 50-gamer Alyssa Bannan.  Banno’s banner stated the speedster was the ‘fastest 50 games’ by an AFLW player ever.   For Dees supporters, today was not our day and unfortunately not for Banno either. A couple of opportunities emerged for our number 6 but alas there was no sizzle.   Brisbane atoned for last week’s record loss to North Melbourne, comprehensively out

    GOOD MORNING by Meggs

    If you are driving or training it to Cranbourne on Saturday, don’t forget to set your alarm clock. The Melbourne Demons play the reigning premiers Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields this Saturday, with the bounce of the ball at 11:05am.  Yes, that’s AM.   The AFLW fixture shows deference to the AFL men’s finals games.  So, for the men it’s good afternoon and good evening and for the women it’s good morning.     The Lions were wounded last week by 44 points, their highest ever los

    HORE ON FIRE by Meggs

    The 40,000 seat $319 million redeveloped Kardinia Park Stadium was nowhere near capacity last night but the strong, noisy contingent of Melbourne supporters led by the DeeArmy journeyed to Geelong to witness a high-quality battle between two of the best teams in AFLW.   The Cats entered the arena to the blasting sounds of Zombie Nation and made a hot start kicking the first 2 goals. They brought tremendous forward half pressure, and our newly renovated defensive unit looked shaky.

    REMATCH by Meggs

    The Mighty Demons take on the confident Cats this Saturday night at the recently completed $319 million redeveloped GMHBA Stadium, with the bounce of the ball at 7:15pm. Our last game of 2023 was an agonisingly close 5-point semi-final loss to Geelong, and we look forward to Melbourne turning the tables this week. Practice match form was scratchy for both teams with the Demons losing practice matches to Carlton and Port Adelaide, while the Cats beat Collingwood but then lost to Essendo

    WELCOME 2024 by Meggs

    It’s been hard to miss the seismic global momentum happening in Women’s sport of late. The Matildas have been playing to record sell-out crowds across Australia and ‘Mary Fowler is God’ is chalked onto footpaths everywhere. WNBA basketball rookie sensation Caitlin Clark has almost single-handedly elevated her Indiana Fever team to unprecedented viewership, attendances and playoffs in the USA.   Our female Aussie Paris 2024 Olympians won 13 out of Australia’s all-time record 18 gol

    EPILOGUE by Whispering Jack

    I sit huddled in near darkness, the only light coming through flickering embers in a damp fireplace, the room in total silence after the thunderstorm died. I wonder if they bothered to restart the game.  No point really. It was over before it started. The team’s five star generals in defence and midfield ruled out of the fray, a few others missing in action against superior enemy firepower and too few left to fly the flag for the field marshal defiantly leading his outnumbered army int
