Are we going to do our usual thing and come back in the last to lose by less than a kick, and then claim it to be an honorable loss? That practice is a load of bollocks

You know how it works here!

It is..... but it's definitely not going to happen tonight or again this year.

We are done.

Maybe twelwth spot finish this year.

No more straight sets rubbish I suppose.

I’ve never seen him so angry. Can’t blame him. I would be suspended for life if I had been out there tonight.

To be fair while the umpires are horrible, we are losing because we are completely terrible and being dominated all over the ground. 

[ElDiablo14 5,055]

Our recruiting since 2022 has been putrid.

McAdam not even ready for VFL.

Hunter is a semi retired player.

I hope we don't screw it this year or we'll be in a world of pain for a long time.

Oh right, TMAC forward now.

Tanking lite?

Goodwin clutching at straws.

Third quarter with the season on the line - right on schedule.

Just get 14th on the ladder. Still possible.

[Jaded No More 68,976]

Kolt’s lack of pace worries me. 
 

Lever without May = 🫠

Boomers v Greece just starting if you you don't want to watch a qtr of junk time

My poor son traveled 800 ks for his first game tonight.

Thank you Mfc for turning him off footy.

Or maybe into a dogs supporter.

Thank you for calling it out.

I'd add Billings to that.

Done well with some youngsters but those others were way off.

Did TMac just [censored] up Viney’s goal?

No one is denying that we have played terribly or that the umpires performance is any better

McDonald forward is the right move. Provides mobility that none of the others do, and we were getting nothing from Petty - who would be better down back in the absence of may.

[Brownie 6,086]

Aaah Max, you kick one of those 60m goals once a year.

About one in ten attempts

[layzie 34,528]

Let's try one game not blaming the umpires. 

There hasn't been one game in the last month where they truly cost us the game. If we, a list with several premiership players need a good rub to be in a game then I suggest you go and support swimming or a sport without umpires.

The ARC is the real winner tonight

Patty Mills would be a medium sized forward like Fritta if he played for the Dees 

[Devil In Disguise 2,284]

Umpire can’t help himself. Dogs free every day of the week.🤮

Sadly only the kids drafted have been a net positive.

[BDA 23,048]

That’s a wrap for me. Boomers game about to start 

[loges 6,767]

There needs to be a lot of changes in the off season starting with assistant coaches.

[dees189227 12,512]

Luckily they haven't kicked straight. This could get ugly

I have said it before, his failures in 2019 and 2020 after making it to a PF were telling.

2021 we had the perfect season, including injuries.

0-4 in finals since the premiership.

All those finals played at the MCG.

Goodwin's credit is well spent IMV.

Sums up his performances  minus since 21 have been poor … not sure what strategy is & confusing 1 over 2 or 1 ruck & our mids getting smashed , failed to trade any decent marquee player of any position ..  needs to be moved on

I was thinking the same. Then remembered that there’s no way I can support an organisation that allows males to fight females. It’s appalling and truly disgusting.

I was done after the depraved opening ceremony.

Petty with Disco forward.

TMAC was competing harder than anyone else down back.
