Nothing I’ve seen today says we are any good. No connection, no passion and sadly no skill.

 

That feeling when you win the qtr by 2 points. Especially when you’re just kicking points.

2 goals in a half, in such a dreary, boring gameplay is not going to put/keep bums on seats. What exactly is the plan here?? Going out a win against the Suns at our own home ground? With points?

What are we doing?

Where is this team going??????

    At the vane pathetic! Goodwin has destroyed this team

    Just too close to the players. They like him but no way they respect him. Would love him to prove me wrong.

    Effort and intensity is there. Ball movement, skills, kicking are just Truly horrible… how we’re just 17 down is a miracle. On the cards they open this up at some point and win by 60 plus.

    Still waiting for this theory that we tactically managed our fitness so we could out run the Suns today to come to fruition

    I am devastated for Xavier Lindsay.

    What terrible news! 😩

    Hurting his left knee.

    Hopefully it's not an ACL injury?!

    How can you accept a pay cheque for halfa million dollars a year, then proceed to miss simple set shots?

    Absolute mercenaries this lot.

    Frittata’s saving grace was his set shock kicking ….. does he have any now? Very sad.

    Diabolical footy, but that was a more even quarter. Bowey and Langford have been fantastic. Desperate for a spark.

    The fact we are only 3 goals down is a [censored] miracle. If only someone in the rooms knows how to flick the on switch at half time

    When players continually fumble simple passes, kick aimlessly and miss tackles, it's not the coach's fault.

    Whatever tactics are employed, multiple players who can't get the basics right will lose matches.

    And that's where we are right now.

    We are officially a basket case

    I know I said this earlier but I’ll say it again. Bowey had the ball across half back, everyone was just walking, no one ran to provide a lead or create space for another player. This has got NOTHING to do with the fact we are missing a couple of players.

    Unbelievably we are still in this game.

    We need to run as hard during the game as when heading to the interchange.

    Too many "Hail Mary's".

    Time to make changes MFC… this week

    How was Langford not deemed good enough to get a gig last week!

    "Hoh boy, I've got the ball!

    I'm going to forget our past 36 months of footy and just KICK IT forward without looking where I'm kicking it!"

     

    We are in a serious funk. I don’t think we can play any worse.

    We just need a bit of confidence. The intent is there - it’s between the ears now.

    All the signs of a team that will go through a full rebuild, reminds me of wc in 2022, lot of premiership players still there but fallen off badly

    • 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.
