9-2-56 to 0-4-4.

That surely must be the worst quarter ever played by the Melbourne Football Club.

And Goodwin just stood there without a clue as to how to stop the avalanche.

Surely he can't stay on for next season now.

    If this club stands for anything, careers will be ended tonight.

    Actions speak louder than words, and the players have spoken loudly and clearly.

    We won't get 8K to next week's game and nor should we. Why would anyone bother buying a membership or sponsoring the club next year when this is what they get?

    The cost of doing nothing is far greater than the cost of carrying on as though everything is okay.

    I don't like bagging our players, but how on earth could you get the 6-6-6 wrong with 26 seconds to go. Just unbelievable stupidity by someone. Who got it wrong? I switched off the TV in complete disgust so I didn't see a replay or the explanation. And don't you only get a free kick if there's been an earlier warning? When did that happen? And if it did, who caused the warning? So may questions. But the big question for me is why do I keep watching this hopeless team of losers?

    So many people still putting this on the coach. JFC. Probably just one or two players out there needed to give one single f#$k about the club and the supporters and put an end to that and every last one of them with the power to stop it, out on the field, 186'd. Thanks a lot another week of everyone laughing at this debacle of a club.

    Have the umpires ever enforced 4 in the middle after a 666 free before??

    There is nothing in the rules to say that must happen. Have never ever seen that when a free is played without a centre bounce. Players just run to the end its going

    6-6-6 total stuff up. Our leaders totally confused about what to do and where to be.

    Kozzie on the bench.

    No-one, repeat NO-ONE on Wanganeen Milera as he burst forward on a clear set move.

    AS a 6 decade supporter - how do I accept that?

    Petty sum total of 5 effing disposals and no goals. Great selection Simon you pillock. Try selecting a player in form instead of your bloody favourites.

    The promised sustained success, we got a flash in the pan. We should not accept what is happening. Time for change. Reading the review at the end of last year now looks so farcical and a waste of money. Good luck at school tomorrow kids. Brace yourselves.

    That was genuinely sickening. In an 8 game span, St. Kildas only 2 wins are against Melbourne and one of those games involved the biggest 3 quarter time comeback in AFL history. What adjustments were made in the 4th quarter that were close to beneficial? Flood the 50 with numbers but leave multiple St. Kilda players unmarked while having no numbers in the corridor? Amateurish football, we let them play the game on their terms in attempting to simply defend a lead with 15 minutes to go and were punished thoroughly for it.

    I am taking my membership of auto renewal, I will then decide if the $600 donation to the club is worth it.

    I don’t see any games in Melbourne so I'm paying to prop this garbage up, until I see signs of change from the incoming leadership change i will be membership free.

    It's Funny,

    9 minutes out I knew we would lose, it was just primed for a goalless qtr and a loss.

    Siren went, goal was kicked. I'm not angry, I'm not upset.

    I honestly just do not care anymore.

    Hope you all find something to enjoy for the rest of the day!

    Agreed.

    Pickett and Melksham on the bench for the final three minutes of the game???? Even under Neeld we never descended to today’s depths. Memberships will take a major hit (my son and I are tossing up the possibility), players who were already on the cusp of leaving may now have had their minds made up for them, and we’d have to think that the coach is pretty much out the door.

    What a disgraceful effort!

    There were two bench signs held up with a hand making a 5 and a 2, maybe has something to do with line formation and the gooses forgot it doesn't apply at the centre bounce? I wasn't at the ground so I dont know though.

      When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.

    • CASEY: Sandringham

      The Casey Demons rebounded from a sluggish start to manufacture a decisive win against Sandringham in the final showdown, culminating a quarter century of intense rivalry between the fluctuating alignments of teams affiliated with AFL clubs Melbourne and St Kilda, as the Saints and the Zebras prepare to forge independent paths in 2026. After conceding three of the first four goals of the match, the Demons went on a goal kicking rampage instigated by the winning ruck combination of Tom Campbell with 26 hitouts, 26 disposals and 13 clearances and his apprentice Will Verrall who contributed 20 hitouts. This gave first use of the ball to the likes of Jack Billings, Bayley Laurie, Riley Bonner and Koltyn Tholstrup who was impressive early. By the first break they had added seven goals and took a strong grip on the game. The Demons were well served up forward early by Mitch Hardie and, as the game progressed, Harry Sharp proved a menace with a five goal performance. Emerging young forwards Matthew Jefferson and Luker Kentfield kicked two each but the former let himself down with some poor kicking for goal.
      Young draft talent Will Duursma showed the depth of his talent and looks well out of reach for Melbourne this year. Kalani White was used sparingly and had a brief but uneventful stint in the ruck.

      The Demons return to the scene of the crime on Saturday to face the wooden spooners the Eagles at the Docklands. Who comes in and who goes out? Like moving deck chairs on the Titanic.

      It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?
