1 good quarter

3 quarters of rubbish

Langdon played well. Fritsch for 5 minutes. A few others tried.

Its past the point of no return for goody. He deserves respect for breaking our drought but best for all concerned is a dignified exit by mutual consent. I hope the club do whats required.

And the players should not escape the blowtorch. Their efforts have been mostly pathetic this season.

Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

Many learnings however

Footy games aren’t won on ONE good quarter. It’s not rocket science.

Past the point of caring about this team.

There can't be anyone sane supporting Goodwin now.

I can’t stand rotations. Fritta gets some confidence back playing out of the goal square in the 3rd and jags a couple of quick ones then he’s taken off. Momentum stifled.

Then he’s put up the ground again.

 

Smashed. Again.

But this time against a nowhere team.

While a win here wouldn’t have said too much about what we’re capable of, it could have at least given us some hope.

Turns out we don’t even have that…

Might be time to make the ‘back to hell’ DVD because there are dark days ahead.

Are we still learning and loving? 🤔

That game was putrid at least Trac tried. Other than 21 it has been one disappointment after another. Constant let downs and an awareness we are heading south at a great rate of knots. We really can thank Paul Roos for building foundations which Goodwin has totally destroyed. He has to go.


The game against the Eagles is gonna be a DOOZY!! Battle of the giants.

(we won a flag just a little over 3 years ago…)

If anyone says anything about effort or not giving up then I'm out. I just can't right now, 15 premiership players and we're handing out participation ribbons against teams who aren't going to play finals.

That was horrific. Essendon are garbage

Time to start again. Goodwin has to go and we need a young current assistant who has learned under a Mitchell, Kingsley, McRae or Fagan


I feel sad tonight. To see this team, with so many Premiership players still playing, playing with little spirit or intensity, poor skills, and the most dysfunctional forward line I have seen since the Neeld era.

Study the 3rd quarter all week Johnathan Brown says. So study how to play against an opposition that's got a 5 goal lead and can afford to play as if they've got another quarter up their sleeve to relaunch their running+attack/uncontested mark game style?

Fools gold. Players also celebrated those goals like they were up by 6 goals themselves. Embarrassing

And the list needs a massive clean out and recast with some run and carry and players who can kick it and hit the side of a barn 8 out of 10 times

I can think of two.

That's the sad thing for me too.

After the first quarter I found myself just not caring and starting to think of the other things I could be doing instead of watching.

I'm guessing this is how the fair weather supporters feel and I'm not upset that i'm thinking of becoming one.

Surely league footballers can think for themselves and press up to stop uncontested marks?

Trac missed that sitter to get it back to 10 then they just kicked on & we gave up 2 junk time goals

May dropping a mark in the square and Gawn costing a couple of goals didn’t help either

    After kicking the first goal of the match the Demons were always playing catch up against the Saints in Alice Spring and could never make the most of their inside 50 entries to wrestle back the lead.
