    This biggest worry is the lack of A graders coming through.

    Kozzie aside, the next were McVee and Rivers.

    Lots of regression all around. Turner, Kozzie and few others aside.

    This is a coaching and development issue, not player. I think McVee and River will be great, provided they have people around them to help. Like any team.

    It's always a no name potato who kicks multiple goals on us.

    Last week he kicked 3 behinds so of course this week he'd actually kick them
     

    THE COACH HAS TO GO!

    And credit where credit's due. I watched Fritta go back against the flight of the ball. Gutsy effort.

    Big time - saw that too, he is playing well.

    I'm losing faith in River's, I dont think he has the touch to be an A grader. Will still be a 150-200+ gamer. But just a solid footballer i think

    Wow. I love this club and know we are struggling, but what was that? How do I keep watching?

    I honestly do not have words for the football we produced. The amount of times our forwards have led well with the kick going anywhere else but to their advantage. The kicking skills. The decision making. Being annihilated in marking contests.

    Our fire is out, our passion deflated, our socks down and we are playing as if already defeated.

    I have gone in to bat for Jeffo and Kolt but they have both been absolutely appalling. Sharp little better.

    At least Langdon, Fritta, Gawn, Salem and Langford are having a go, but still...

    That was quite bizarre. Maybe he was complaining because he was slightly more up the field... not sure but it seemed weird.

    It is very poor leadership.

    Kosi rotting at FF while we struggle to win or move the ball is a joke. I understand he kicks goals, but he also creates them. We need him back in the middle to cause some chaos.

    We aren’t winning anymore with Viney Trac and Clarry in the same midfield.

    Put Harvey in there, Chin, anything different to try and spark a bit of meaningful movement with the ball. Hell put Salem into the midfield. We literally have nothing to lose.

    Doing the same thing over and over again is the definition of insanity, and I’m going insane.

    Yes and that was the third big effort in a row.

    If you didn't know it was his first year. You'd look at Langford tonight and swear he was part of our leadership team.

    I'm sure we'll drive him into mediocrity by the middle of next year.

    Look at Windsor last year to where he's at this year.

    When there's complete chaos all around you as a young player, it must just keep chipping away at your confidence

    We seem to Excell at this for decades.

    The Paul Roos era seems to be the only time we seemed to build young players up in skills and confidence rather than seeing them crumble

    Is Frittata playing as as a wingman?

    Is so, why

    Fritsch is the only one that’s made things happen tonight.

    Is he playing on the wing.

    Salem runs on a treadmill. He would be eaten alive in the middle. He is good with ball in hand, but he can no longer run faster than a two year old.

    If Jefferson plays again for the MFC, something must be seriously wrong.

    And we have Petty as an emergency!

    Me too mate, me too. Goodwin can’t think of anything but what miracle can Max do for us today…

    We literally have no other go to…

    Genuinely uncoachable.

    Every kick a turnover

    30+ turnovers

    dropped sitters, missed easy kicks, pathetic game style

    No change to the game plan

    Anyone at this club that finds this acceptable has absolutely NFI

    It’s been coming yet many in denial! What the coaching staff have managed to do to this list is mind boggling, yet our club has blind faith in Goodwin, basic skill errors and kicking skills/decision making, same is long bombs to 2vs1 fwds

    • 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.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      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.
