Van Rooyen just hasn’t looked like taking a mark tonight.

Just tonight?

    Tagging or not, three touches from an experienced player like Sparrow is not good enough.

    Hasn't looked like taking a mark for 12 months. No support around him but his marking form is horrific. At this point he needs to be tried in defense to save his career.

    How embarrassing. We are legitimately in a wooden spoon race with West Coast. 😂

    0 - 23 if we don't sack Goodwin ASAP

    What is Salem these days he can't defend and doesn't attack from half back. He is symbolic of the fall of our team

    Losing to a really, really ordinary team.

    While a win here would not have said much about where we are or what we’re capable of, but geez it would have been at least something.

    Pretty deflated.

    This chick is hot and eye candy, ngl, but useless as an umpire. I dread every time we get her for our matches. Her and Nicholls kills us all the time.

    She's the pits

    Our contested marking is almost non-existent, only 4 tonight. One a quarter?

    She's terrible and I believe a Bombers fan.

    Goodwin has lost me

    but players like trac, clarry, fritsch petty need to take a look in the mirror.

    a team with 15 premiership players should not be this bad irrespective of who the coach is. shameful effort

    Kicked our 1 goal 2 behind average for the last quarter

    Good effort that

    If Kozzie leaves we're genuinely buggered

    As opposed to him staying and still being genuinely buggered.

    10 minutes enough for Goody to say there are positives. Reality was a terrible first half and a typical last quarter fade out. Eight goals same old story. There are just signs with this team they are not engaged. Don’t forget Bombers are a seriously ordinary team.

     

    Hopefully those few Dees supporters who made the trip to Gather Round, eat up and drink at the Barossa. Make use of the weekend and drown their sorrows, thanks to the abysmal performance tonight.

    This standard just doesn’t cut it. If you can’t score in the modern game, you're not entertaining and you’re not in the game.

    • REPORT: Adelaide

      The atmosphere at the Melbourne Football Club at the beginning of the season was aspirational following an injury-plagued year in 2024. Coach Simon Goodwin had lofty expectations with the return of key players, the anticipated improvement from a maturing group with a few years of experience under their belts, and some exceptional young talent also joining the ranks. All of that went by the wayside as the team failed to click into action early on. It rallied briefly with a new strategy but has fallen again with five more  consecutive defeats.

    • CASEY: Coburg

      The Casey Demons returned to their home ground which was once a graveyard for opposing teams but they managed to gift the four points on offer to Coburg with yet another of their trademark displays of inaccuracy in front of goals and some undisciplined football that earned the displeasure of the umpires late in the game. The home team was welcomed by a small crowd at Casey Fields and looked right at home as it dominated the first three quarters and led for all bar the last five minutes of the game. In the end, they came away with nothing, despite winning everywhere but on the scoreboard and the free kick count.

    • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

      The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.
