I left the game at half time!

Featured Replies

I would go every week win or lose!! Even if it hurts.

And the fact i cant go makes me want 2 go ever week more and more

People say the can accept losing i cant hurts more and more each week and i believe we can fix what happened this week and all takes is danners to pick up the lazy players and slap them in the face and then do 1 to himself!!

 
The game was that bad that I had to leave at half time!

I felt really sad about it cause its the first time I had ever done that. :unsure:

You could have missed the greatest goal/mark etc ever to be taken in the red and blue.

It's always worth sticking around IMO, even if it's just to watch closely a player you rate highly/don't rate at all and see how he goes.

wow, the fickle supporter tag does permeate into these boards, i didn't think anyone here wasn't passionate enough to attend for the sake of supporting the boys, even if it hurts to watch

ill support them when they come to play, but they showed no respect to us, the club or themselves, so on that basis i had no qualms on walking. 9/10 ill sit through a shlacking, but i can't tolerate it when i feel i care more than they do.

friday didn't hurt for me like other games have, it infuriated me and saw me come close to bursting an artery.

i meant people saying they won't bother next week, weeks to come etc. it is times like this that our most passionate supporters stay tough, because if we don't the average dees 'snow bunny' has no chance, and our standing in the media and the football world will deteriorate even further.

i personally don't leave early, but can udnerstand why people do, and it's fair enough if you feel let down by what the players provide for you, but if you don't go every week through whatever, you miss wins like the crows game, or the tigers, blues in 97

ok, no worries, go 'cha. ill be there friday and im confident they won't serve up that kinda crap again.

Well I had a prior commitment so I didnt get to the game until half time and I met a lot of Melbourne supporters on my way to the ground. I do not applaude you leaving at half time, we have been losing by worse margins than Friday night at half time and I have stuck around to watch that train wreck I do not understand the point of leaving nor do I condone it

I have supported this club for too long not to expect performances like what was dished up on friday evening...

There was a sense all week that Richmond was a chance but looked at match ups and thought we looked pretty good...

However, you cannot beat spirit and passion - something which our players played without!!

there was no pride in their performance whatsoever...

The second quarter was possibly the worst quarter of football that a demon team has played in a long long time!! no manning up, kicking over players heads, no hard running, no clearances, lack of hard ball gets...

where has the team of 2004, 2005, 2006 gone???

i stayed for the entire game and supported, some with sarcasm and some with passion - such as matthew bate's continuing good form!!

seriously though, as soon as we stop accepting mediocrity and tripe that was dished up on friday evening and demanding performances week in week out such as those against adelaide and the filth, then we will be a better club!!

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Essendon

    It’s Pink Lady night at Princes Park — a vibey Friday evening setting for a high-stakes clash between second-placed Melbourne and eleventh-placed Essendon. The wind-sheltered IKON Park, a favourite ground of the Demon players, promises flair, fire and a touch of pink. Melbourne has never lost a home-and-away game here, though the ghosts of two straight-sets finals exits in 2023 still linger.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: # 1 Steven May 

    The premiership defender has shown signs of wear and tear due to age, and his 2025 season was inconsistent, ending poorly with a suspension and a noticeable decline in performance. The Demons are eager to integrate younger players onto their list and have indicated that they may not be able to guarantee him senior games next season, in what would be the final year of his contract.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: # 2 Jacob van Rooyen

    The young key tall failed to make progress during the season, with a decline in his goal kicking output. His secondary role as a backup ruckman, which may have hindered his ability to further develop his game, and he was also impacted by the team's poor forward connection. It will be interesting to observe his performance under a new coaching regime.
