IF the coach cannot inspire and guide the team to win this one he is useless.

Could we be doing worse with Newton on the ground??

Predictably conservative selection.

Very conservative selection.

I don't care how well Holland played last week. There is NO matchup for him. Listening to the radio and it sounds like Richo is playing all over him. Should have been dropped.

No Whelan. We could use some steadiness in defence.

36 points. Unbelievable. "richmond is killing melbourne" "hard to see a winner for melbourne" ABC radio.

What a joke.

Try 60+ points :o !!!

They seem to just want it a hell of a lot more than we do.......

They have been much harder at it both in the air and on the ground, tougher in defence, fantastic tackling, much quicker around the ground,

and the Tiges are opening it up in attack like a hot knife through butter.

This could prove to be very embarrassing if we can't get our stuff together...... and quick!!!

OH MY GOD

This scoreline would be terrible against west coast in perth, let alone against a team winless over 11 rounds.

I'm not usually one to call for heads but ND is gone. Yes, it is the players out there playing hopelessly but if he can't motivate them to at least put up a fight, he is gone.

What are our senior players doing? Bruce, Green, White, Robbo, Yze

For senior players who are 1000% behind Daniher staying, they are sure doing their best to make sure he goes with this display of nonchalant inspidity.

ND is gone after this one

Well, I'll probably feel different tomorrow, but here's my half-time knee jerk:

This is the straw that broke the camel's back. The pundits have ummed and ahhed over Daniher's future for a long time now, but after tonight all doubt has been eradicated. No coach can be so comprehensively out-smarted as Neil has been tonight, and hope to keep his job for next year.

What the? Well, this just about does it.

After the last couple of games on the up, then to put in an effort like this is simply too much to swallow. Either ND goes or half the membership will. Central command had better give us something to look forward to next season or we will be decimated.

How can we be roosters one day and feather dusters the next? WE are so difficult to follow!!

How could the club say anything other than this is not acceptable. ND you must go now as you are payed a lot of money to guide this club to reasonable performances and 2 wins is absolutely not "reasonable performances". For all the losers that say we should not criticise the club I say enjoy your boring, pathetic lives cause this club will not give you any positive feelings of success in its present form.This is the bottom team we are playing and how much worse are we than them? It is embarrassing to watch this crap Neal Daniher! The club is in danger of losing a huge chunk of its membership and corporate support and must make some changes. To the players, even David Schwartz is embarassed , but at least he tried even if he did only have one good leg.

To quote Derrin Hinch : " Shame, Shame, Shame!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

Shame - coach

Shame - so clalled leaders

Shame - posers.

They have lost me.

IF ND is appointed senior coach for 2008, I will NOT renew membership and will take up golf, or croquet, or tiddly winks.

Couldn't agree more regarding ND. Think you're being harsh regarding our senior player - at least Robbo and Yze seem to be having a go on the unbelievably rare rimes it gets in our forward 100. Not a typo, I don't think its been in our forward 50 more than half a dozen times tonight.

To be fair, appear to be 18-19 passengers tonight. That said, when you're smashed by a team that has drawn one and lost 10 our of 11, you can't be playing well.

Commentary team of Schwarz, Cometti and McAvaney bagging Melbourne. It hurts when I have to agree with them.

    WARNING by William from Waalitj

    As a long term resident of Waalitj Marawar, I am moved to warn my fellow Narrm fans that a  danger game awaits. The locals are no longer the easybeats who stumbled, fumbled and bumbled their way to the good fortune of gathering the number one draft pick and a generational player in Harley Reid last year. They are definitely better than they were then.   Young Harley has already proven his worth with some stellar performances for a first year kid playing among men. He’s taken hangers, k

    OVER YET? by KC from Casey

    The Friday evening rush hour clash of two of the VFL’s 2024 minnows, Carlton and the Casey Demons was excruciatingly painful to watch, even if it was for the most part a close encounter. I suppose that since the game had to produce a result (a tie would have done the game some justice), the four points that went to Casey with the win, were fully justified because they went to the best team. In that respect, my opinion is based on the fact that the Blues were a lopsided combination that had

    CENTIMETRES by Whispering Jack

    Our game is one where the result is often decided by centimetres; the touch of a fingernail, a split-second decision made by a player or official, the angle of vision or the random movement of an oblong ball in flight or in its bounce and trajectory. There is one habit that Melbourne seems to have developed of late in its games against Carlton which is that the Demons keep finding themselves on the wrong end of the stick in terms of the fine line in close games at times when centimetres mak

    MELBOURNE BUSINESS by The Oracle

    In days of old, this week’s Thursday night AFL match up between the Demons and the Blues would be framed on the basis of the need to redress the fact that Carlton “stole” last year’s semi final away from Melbourne and with it, their hopes for the premiership.  A hot gospelling coach might point out to his charges that they were the better team on the night in all facets and that poor kicking for goal and a couple of lapses at the death cost them what was rightfully theirs. Moreover, now was
