We have less than zero rights to still be in this game.

    Petty needs to go play on JUH if May is done. We have Disco to sub on as a forward.

    English unlucky. [censored] off BT. The albino llama didn’t handball correctly and should’ve been penalized like Gawn was in 1st qtr. Peanut

    Don't let the scoreboard fool you. We have a third of their scoring opportunities.

    Btw what TF was Oliver doing with 20 seconds left in the half? Silly half kick toward our 50, we were lucky not to gift them another shot at goal before the siren.


    Lucky to be 3 goals down

    The silver lining of May's injury is that we can finally put Petty in the backline.


    Howes and AMW have been a positive down back.

    They’re coming off a 5 day break, so if we don’t completely [censored] the bed in the third quarter we could over run them in the last. Could being the operative word here, as they could also kick straight for goal and win by 15 goals.

    Viney 5 possessions. Carrying something.

    Add that to May and Gawn ... walking wounded, and we were already undermanned.

    Should be ten goals down, but thankfully the Dogs are undoing the best efforts of the umps and ourselves to destroy the contest. 

    Don’t know why we keep playing injured players, particularly when we have suitable replacements. 


    luckily we're still well in this thanks to their inaccuracy

    doggies will wilt in the second half. we just need to bring intensity, clarry and viney need to lift, take our chances and i'll think we'll win

    We have been awful but where still in it thanks to their inaccuracy. 
    It would be hilarious and fantastic if we could win this. 

     

    Jack Viney a massive five disposals. 

    Kozzie with two.

    Petty ...it's ok we can trade him.

    Too many passengers in this team.

    Fritta well done.

    Max ditto but they need help.

    Oliver bog for us with only TEN touches.

    Umps horrible won't reward any of our tackles that actually stick.

    • NON-MFC: Round 15

      As the Demons head into their Bye Round, it's time to turn our attention to the other matches being played. Which teams are you tipping this week? And which results would be most favourable for the Demons if we can manage to turn our season around?

    • REPORT: Port Adelaide

      Of course, it’s not the backline, you might argue and you would probably be right. It’s the boot studder (do they still have them?), the midfield, the recruiting staff, the forward line, the kicking coach, the Board, the interchange bench, the supporters, the folk at Casey, the head coach and the club psychologist  It’s all of them and all of us for having expectations that were sufficiently high to have believed three weeks ago that a restoration of the Melbourne team to a position where we might still be in contention for a finals berth when the time for the midseason bye arrived. Now let’s look at what happened over the period of time since Melbourne overwhelmed the Sydney Swans at the MCG in late May when it kicked 8.2 to 5.3 in the final quarter (and that was after scoring 3.8 to two straight goals in the second term).

    • CASEY: Essendon

      Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

    • PREGAME: Gold Coast

      The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

      The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
