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.

    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.

    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.

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

    About one in ten attempts

    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

    Sadly only the kids drafted have been a net positive.

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

    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.

    • GAMEDAY: Geelong

      It's Game Day, and reinforcements are finally arriving for the Demons—but will it be too little, too late? They're heading down the freeway to face a Cats side returning home to their fortress after two straight losses, desperate to reignite their own season. Can the Demons breathe new life into their campaign, or will it slip even further from their grasp?

    • PREVIEW: Geelong

      "It's officially time for some alarm bells. I'm concerned about the lack of impact from their best players." This comment about one of the teams contesting this Friday night’s game came earlier in the week from a so-called expert radio commentator by the name of Kane Cornes. He wasn’t referring to the Melbourne Football Club but rather, this week’s home side, Geelong.The Cats are purring along with 1 win and 2 defeats and a percentage of 126.2 (courtesy of a big win at GMHBA Stadium in Round 1 vs Fremantle) which is one win more than Melbourne and double the percentage so I guess that, in the case of the Demons, its not just alarm bells, but distress signals. But don’t rely on me. Listen to Cornes who said this week about Melbourne:- “They can’t run. If you can’t run at speed and get out of the contest then you’re in trouble.

    • NON-MFC: Round 04

      Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit.
      Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

    • CASEY: Gold Coast

      For a brief period of time in the early afternoon of yesterday, the Casey Demons occupied top place on the Smithy’s VFL table. This was only made possible by virtue of the fact that the team was the only one in this crazy competition to have played twice and it’s 1½ wins gave it an unassailable lead on the other 20 teams, some of who had yet to play a game.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      In my all-time nightmare game, the team is so ill-disciplined that it concedes its first two goals with the courtesy of not one, but two, fifty metre penalties while opening its own scoring with four behinds in a row and losing a talented youngster with good decision-making skills and a lethal left foot kick, subbed off in the first quarter with what looks like a bad knee injury.
