good job we're not playing a decent team tonight or we would be beaten out the gate.

i'm not looking forward to our tough run of fixtures starting with hawthorn w8
 

Ed Langdon might not be playing quite like he did in 2021 but can't fault his effort and commitment tonight.

    I just rewatched the Cats game v. us.

    We played much better than I remembered ( for 3 quarters).

    We lost by 39 points on their dungheap, then they’ve done well against a “ hot” Adelaide in hostile conditions, which makes our effort seem not so bad.

    Dees by 11 ( pray!)

    On the contrary, if he’s not gone by then he hopefully will be after.

    i'm a perceptive supporter not a 'die hard' because why would i die hard when they persisted with Goodwin when it was clear that he was not allowing the best of our players. we recruited Nate Jones of all people to coach, with no coaching credentials, purely on sentiment, and we arguably did the same with Brad Green.
    When we had Roffey who was a great President because she offered something different. Green and Jones are Fanboys and they are not football intellects wide-armed person people (as Roffey was).

    I don't wish to pile [censored] on Melbourne, but I'm trying to have a perceptive and critical discussion about it.

    Unfortunately for you I have developed a soft spot for Collingwood because even though many of they're supporters are horrible, the club has a spirit that wouldn't allow pure sentiment to cloud their vision for their prosperity and the welfare of the players.

    That being said, my line of reasoning is much more caring to our players than supporters who just say "great we have Nate Jones coaching and Goodwin still there, fantastic!" without seeing how catastrophic this has been for the welfare and prosperity of kids like Petracca and the younger echelon of Rivers etc. who are trying to live full and unhindered footballing careers

    You Go Away, youve probably got no guts to stand up for what this club needs.

    Agree go away


    Our list profile on paper may very well be “past it” in terms of premiership contention, but we should NOT be uncompetitive to this extent.. We should be a 7-10 side.

    Failure on all fronts not just the coaching and football department setup.

    Can we be the first team ever to sack a coach at half time.

    Take your [censored] game plan and [censored] off Goodwin

    There's a reason our crowds are poor.
    Just awful football to watch.
    Even when we were winning.

    Oliver has checked out

    How did we win a flag with most of this group? I am convinced the game has passed Goodwin, Richardson, Williams, and Selwin Griffiths. The team has gone backwards at a rate of knots and there is not one glimmer of hope in sight. It's time to cut the head off the snake and get whatever draftpicks we can at the end of the season. This has been a pathetic effort.

    Goodwin game plan - bomb into the forward line so that JVR, that superstar in the making, can drop it, fumble it or some other display that demonstrates he has never been up to AFL standard. Or pacey not! Spargo handballs to an opposition player. Or Fritsch fumbles. Either way the ball soon ends up in the opposition defence and they attack and end up scoring a goal at the other end.

    If that isn’t the plan then why is the coach continuing to play these players?

    Either way - senior coach should be gone by the end of the weekend.

    On a positive note, we are winning the free kicks.

    • AFLW REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      We’re back! That was fun. The Mighty Dees’ Season 10 campaign is off toa flying start with a commanding 48-point winover the Western Bulldogs, retaining the Hampson-Hardeman Cup in style. After a hard-fought first half in slippery conditions, the Dees came out in the second half and showcased their trademark superior class, piling on four goals in the third termand never looked back.

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      The final score in Saturday's game against Hawthorn was almost identical to that from their last contest three months ago. Melbourne suffered comprehensive defeats in both games, but the similarities ended there.When they met in Round 9, the Demons were resurgent, seeking to redeem themselves after a lacklustre start to the season. They approached the game with vigour and dynamism, and were highly competitive for the first three quarters, during which they were at least on par with the Hawks. In the final term, they lapsed into error and were ultimately overrun, but the final result did not accurately reflect their effort and commitment throughout the match.

    • CASEY: Box Hill

      The Casey Demons ended the regular season on a positive note and gained substantial momentum leading into the finals when they knocked the Box Hill Hawks off the top of the VFL ladder in their final round clash at Casey Fields. More importantly, they moved out of a wild card position in the finals race and secured a week's rest as they leapfrogged up the ladder into fifth place with their decisive 23-point victory over the team that had been the dominant force in the competition for most of the season.

      The final game of the 2025 Season is finally upon us and the Demons may have an opportunity to spoil the Magpies Top 4 aspirations when they face them on Friday Night. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Hawthorn

      The Demons were sloppy all day and could not stop the run and carry of the fast moving Hawthorn as the Hawks cruised to an easy 36 point win. Is the season over yet?
