I am sick of the JVR bashing on this forum. You try performing in a.forward line that bombs it on top of your head week after week, and being coached by a backman who teaches him no forward craft. Don't be surprised if the way he is playing IS due to the way he has been instructed to play.

    2 GOALS IN A HALF?!

    And one of them was from a class kossie bit of magic. Everything looks hard once it gets to the forward 50.

    It says a lot on a top deck, perfect for footy, not a breath of wind and we’ve managed just 2 goals.

    Fumbly, sloppy, indecisive, none of them seem to know what they should be doing. It is unbelievable to think this was the team to beat a couple of years ago, they look like headless chooks out there.

    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).

    A lot of the reasons why we are in the mess we now find ourselves is due to Roffey’s ‘leadership’.

    Her complacency as president is as great as Goodwin’s as coach.

    Who knew that when you play one key forward who is only 193cm you won’t take F50 marks…. Oh that’s right every demon supporter and person other than the coaches.

    Worst move he's made since Omac up forward

    Sigh. It is all looking too familiar.

    Scrappily keep ourselves clinging on in the general play but completely failing to take the opportunities when we manage to send it forward.

    Gradually falling behind... and then...

    The shoulders drop and there's a 15 minute period where we give away multiple goals.

    Sometimes the cycle repeats twice in a single game, sometime the slump period just runs out the rest of the game like against Geelong.

    It is almost the exact opposite of our 2021 experience - grinding away with a slight steady advantage, until the opponent can't keep up and we shatter them at some stage of the second half.

    When you are watching it live you get a true appreciation to how substandard the skill level is , including routine short passes! The number of times kicking to opposition players!! Woeful !!

      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?

      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?
