    Sums up our season, alright.

    I hate Essedon so much.

    I think 75% of Matthew LLyods 800 goals have come from soft free kick decisions. I HATE HIM. I HATE HIM

    I don't think i hate any supporters more than Bomber supporters after they win.

    I am not a violent man, but i wanted to start punching on after that loss.

    They didn't deserve it, they got favourable umpiring desicions all game, yet still managed to whine at every call given against them.

    [censored] I HATE ESSENDON!!!!!!!!

    I didn't realise you could trip people in AFL :S

    Stuff Essendon, we all hate 'em, but we need to just look at us tonight. The 4 points don't matter - I think that, after the first quarter, we worked as hard as we have all year to walk off the ground with our heads held high. We might not be thinking like that now, but we sent Daniher off with pride and I think we can happy with that (in time!)

    I almost cried myself when I saw Neitz on the verge of tears during his interview with the Ox after the game. The new coach will be filling some HUGE shoes, no doubt about it!

    Sums up our year really, but yes, i'm shattered we couldn't come away with a win.

    the game was symbolic of the last 10 years for the demons... at times abysmal at others scintillating but in the end disappointment

    Sport on M17S.

    It was almost a carbon copy of ND's coaching record.

    108 wins 114 losses NO PREMIERSHIPS

    Tonight we showed how bad we can be and how good we can be but ultimately showed we were/are not good enough.

    In the short term time will tell if a new voice can change that, or it is the players that too need changing.

    Thanks for the ride Neale. While it was frustrating at times it was very, very exciting. Good luck

    Go Dees - "Juice anyone?"

    We're one loss closer to a number one draft pick....

    Did I just say that? :o;)

    As much as the loss hurt, it was just this thought that gave me much comfort.

    I could see the loss coming, starting with the missed tripping free kick against Bruce, the tempo footy tactics with 90 seconds still left to play, the failure of Doggy to have one functioning football brain cell, every time they bombed long into the forward line we couldn't cope. Long gone are the days when Jeff White played a kick behind play and mopped up that kind of attack.

    Go Tiges! I want Kreuzer.

    Last night was terrilble, the year has been terrible. Watching Neale come off the ground with the boys had me sobbing like a baby for half an hour. And I was bloody [censored] off they couldnt at least string a win together for him, bloody hell if we cant win for our departing coach we are never going to win. And for the record I hate Essendon too

    I have celebrated every Melbourne victory and (every scum loss since 1999) but this loss leaves me hollow like the 2000 GF. It's as though they had saved those losses up for payback last night. I hate those arogant pricks.

    My mind tells me it is only a game but my emotions are a wreck this morning. The footy God's were again against us last night. I still don't get it why ND had to go and I don't want any response on that from the ND haters. They can use the many other threads we have had on here.

    I endured the parking horrors( an hour driving around Telstra), Ticketmaster problems and queues despite having pre-booked my seats, a seat so high up that by the time I got down to Level 1 the farewell to ND had been done and gone. Stupid umpires, inept kicking for goal and all this surrounded by feral Bombers supporters all night. Not to mention playing at the Dome and not the MCG for his last game. There were so few Demon fans there.

    I am going to have a miserable day maybe dare to watch the replay and maybe even have a good cry.

    It was a lousy send off in so many ways for a loyal coach.

    Gutted again- I agree!

  • Quote

    Agree with all the comments so far. I also had a drunken tear after the game.

    How can anything be so cruel. If ever we were owed a win it was last night, and they just couldn't get over the line.

    Emotionally destroying

    That's funny, I was thinking the same thing about the Melbourne supporters there on friday. Apart from the tripping free not given to Bruce, I can't think of many times Essendon got favourable umpiring.

    But, then again, I might be biased.

    27 frees to 18 says your being biased. But then again saying that, there were umpiring decisions where i cringed going both ways.

    No it does not. However I agree with your second sentence.

    The refusal of the Lloyd mark in the goal square in the last quarter was a shocker and I have not seen any comments from the bias meter monkeys on that!

    First quarter, hands in the back by Lucas on Bizzell, mark payed and goal. Shocking rule, but it is there and should be applied.

    This rule is a travesty on our game and, if not gone next year, we must all mobilise ourselves to vote in directors who will appoint delegates that get rid of Demitriou, Anderson, Bartlet, Fitzpatrick and anybody else who had a hand in bring in something that was not asked for, was not tried out, was not warranted and is not appreciated.

    Why do free kicks have to be even?

    And the total number of frees only tells half of the umpiring story in a match. Where they were paid, the ones they missed, non paying of marks, inconsistencies, 50m penalties etc etc

    I suppose it is easy for me to say this cos we won, but I think in the end I think both teams suffered from some bad umpiring on Friday night.

    If Melbourne had held on to win, most Essendon supporters would be blaming the umps, but cos Essendon won, alot Melb supporters blame the men in yellow. It's nothing new.

    • PREVIEW: Richmond

      A few years ago, the Melbourne Football Club produced a documentary about the decade in which it rose from its dystopic purgatory of regular thrashings to the euphoria of a premiership victory. That entire period could have been compressed in a fast motion version of the 2025 season to date as the Demons went from embarrassing basket case to glorious winner in an unexpected victory over the Dockers last Saturday. They transformed in a single week from a team that put in a pedestrian effort of predictably kicking the ball long down the line into attack that made a very ordinary Bombers outfit look like worldbeaters into a slick, fast moving side with urgency and a willingness to handball and create play with shorter kicks and by changing angles to generate an element of chaos that yielded six goals in each of the opening quarters against Freo.

    • NON-MFC: Round 07

      Round 7 gets underway in iconic fashion with the traditional ANZAC Day blockbuster. The high-flying Magpies will be looking to solidify their spot atop the ladder, while the Bombers are desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top eight. Later that evening, Fremantle will be out to redeem themselves after a disappointing loss to the Demons, facing a hungry Adelaide side with eyes firmly set on breaking into the top four. Saturday serves up a triple-header of footy action. The Lions will be looking to consolidate their Top 2 spot as they head to Marvel Stadium to clash with the Saints. Over in Adelaide, Port Adelaide will be strong favourites at home against a struggling North Melbourne. The day wraps up with a fiery encounter in Canberra, where the Giants and Bulldogs renew their bitter rivalry. Sunday’s schedule kicks off with the Suns aiming to bounce back from their shock defeat to Richmond, taking on the out of form Swans.Then the Blues will be out to claim a major scalp when they battle the Cats at the MCG. The round finishes with a less-than-thrilling affair between Hawthorn and West Coast at Marvel. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • REPORT: Fremantle

      For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

    • CASEY: UWS Giants

      The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

      The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?
