i don;t know where the inspiration is coming from today

worst conversion rate in the league. same old story

 

Playing kick to kick with each other across the back line. Bloody pathetic football

Such a frustrating game and what I think will end up being another loss.

It drives me nuts they way we play sometimes.

Probs another loss next week too. So infuriating. 🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮

    Isn’t it funny how most weeks our opposition are complete sharp shooters and never miss, we are bloody cursed when it comes to goal kicking

    Remarkable

    Maybe to do with shooting from the boundary whilst we get torched on the rebound. Saints goals mainly from 25m range

    Obviously the club need the money but this ground is a disaster for the club.

    In all seriousness, our lack of genuine ball users is beyond frustrating; as is our inability to defend the rebound and turnover when it’s moved through the centre.

    soft turnovers

    We are giving them possession by atrocious decision making when kicking inside F50, or just poor skills. I am so enraged I keep getting up walking away from the TV for 2 minutes, ranting to myself only to return to the TV because I can't &*%$ing help myself.

    Can't we just play the game well?

    Chip 12 metre to no one. No one [censored]. [censored]. FYCK

    With the wind a very very low percentage shot from that side of the ground, it was the right ideal, just a really-poor kick.


    I don't think we get it today. Some of the skill errors look pathetic. They're out on they're feet.

    Such a shame we started with 5 losses because these losses were always going to come

    Also while I love the community work the club does up there, playing in Alice Springs each year is a serious competitive disadvantage

    Yep

    Forwards should practice two hours per week goal kicking under all scenarios.

    Elementary you'd think

    After three years I doubt it will happen.

    Anyway we are still in it. If we kick straight and stop turning it over in the middle.

    Lever bought back too soon. Not ready.

    Coaches have done their homework. Nullify Kozzie and Melksham and we can't kick goals.

    Maybe Tracc at full fwd.

    I don't know.

    Swap Petty for Disco

    Leave Disco , Koz and Melk on their own i50 as much as poss


    Brad Hill having a picnic out there. Even that dud Butler has kicked 4 against us. This is just beyond pathetic.

    Edited by Devil In Disguise

    Johnson out that a positive. That dropped mark ugg.

     

    Why hasn't Laurie been subbed in for sharp? Lever 4 kicks. Been appalling

    Oliver held all day. So many players playing poorly. Salem cooked. Rivers. Well below par. Fritsch. 10m cameo

    Sharp 5 kicks. Have seen enough

    Coach has stagefright. Can't move

    • PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      With both sides precariously positioned ahead of the run home to the finals, only one team involved in Sunday’s clash at the Adelaide Oval between the Power and the Demons will remain a contender when it’s over.  On current form, that one team has to be Melbourne which narrowly missed out on defeating the competition’s power house Collingwood on King's Birthday and also recently overpowered both 2024 Grand Finalists. Conversely, Port Adelaide snapped out of a four-game losing streak with a win against the Giants in Canberra. Although they will be rejuvenated following that victory, their performances during that run of losses were sub par and resulted in some embarrassing blow out defeats.

      Round 14 is upon us and there's plenty at stake across the rest of the competition. As Melbourne heads to Adelaide, it's time to turn our attention to the other matches of the Round. Which teams are you tipping this week? And which results would be most favourable for the Demons’ finals tilt?

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

    • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

      The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Collingwood

      Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.
