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

    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

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
