    It’s ok We will take learnings from this loss just like every other loss.

    3 goals in three quarters. Should learn you that does c not win many games. To I think we got close at one stage shows how bad those scum are.

    I think that will be the last time I'll tip us for the season. Lucky we're going to get an amazing pick. with our No.1 pick this year. Oh wait!

    Sadly 10 minutes of team football combined with poor tactics in the first half is not good enough, People are lamenting May and Gawn mistakes, but in the scheme of things it would not have made a difference for those couple fo goals.

    The team tactically and physically have not been prepared for this season to compete for 4 qtrs.

    I switch off with 5 to go, so I didn't see the player post siren reactions this week.

    Goody should've been sack when he lost to the Eagles by 6 goals in Perth. Haven't been the same since. You just know he will come out and say we've improved in his press conference and "we have enormous belief in our plan and have a desire to get better". Just bin him for the love of god.

    Post North after Chandler kicked 3 goals and all his defenders came rushing out I said he wouldn't kick 3 goals in his next 3 games (and if he did I'd donate 50$ to charity). He kicked 1 and was a passenger again. This is our problem. So many sub standard players that rode on the back of the elite guys.

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

    Was that the difference in the game? No.

    Fair dinkum the club are gaslighting us or even just being straight up dishonest to us about the connection and ‘love’ they have.

    Something feels amiss and broken.

    It’s starting to feel disingenuous.

    Time for big balls and big calls. The damage that zero change is causing to this football club is catastrophic.

    Last week Goodwin banged on about not just wanting to get better…

    Were we better tonight, or less than that?

    I’m genuinely somewhat intrigued by what he’ll say tonight. But I don’t have the fortitude to watch it. I’m sorry. It’ll be some [censored] that will make my heart sink and blood boil at the same time.

    The captain telling me, still, the Titanic is not sinking, even though we’re up to our necks…

    A few good signs, probably all we can expect for the moment.

    Decent performance across the ground, marred by a few costly errors (May and Gawn dropped marks), the younger players struggling a bit, Windsor hasn't been himself since returning, Langford can't handball to save himself, Lindsay getting too easily out-bodied, etc. etc. But tackles, clearances, contested possessions all trending in the right direction.

    However: This was supposed to be the breakout year for JVR, unfortunately it's close to his worst. Add the injury to Jefferson, Johnson not there yet (if he'll ever be?), and Fullarton improving but ???, and we have a forward line that is a long way off kicking enough goals.

    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

    Totally agree with that. When Fritsch kicked that goal you would have thought we were 10 goals up. It give an insight into his thinking.

    I am devastated about watching Kozzy play for another club.

    We're a step closer to a new coach I guess.

    The sooner the better.

    So depressing that we will most likely be bottom 4 and we won’t even have our natural 1st round draft pick. Least Lindsay and Langford look good.

    But our method is broken and our talent forward of the ball is not good enough

    I’m 48. I was there in 1988 and 2000… And the Neeld era. But I’ve never been so depressed as an MFC supporter… Maybe my age is showing.

    I’ve been on the fence but I think I’m on the “move Goody on” train. Too much talent out on the park to be playing this badly.

    FWIW… I think the lads had a good crack.

    And Menzie would have to be the biggest list clogger in the AFL. Doesn’t say too much about our backline, does it?

    • 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.

      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.
