Club finds itself playing 3 away, games in a row, cats,gws& saints, club needs to focus on their core business is winning games & maximising home games! Not excusing our loss to gws other than poor decision, goal kicking but we played a home game on a neutral suburban regional ground! I’m all for community involvement but do this as a preseason fixture, Collingwood don’t sell their home games!

Can someone in the media actually refer to this & get Goodwin to respond as this could be the biggest missed opportunity for a team with such strong dominance to not win another flag!

Spot & laughable with forwards not leading to ball carrier plus players torching free teammates is this selfish or just dumb plays https://www.foxsports.com.au/afl/teams/melbourne-demons/afl-news-2023-melbourne-demons-stats-garry-lyon-exposes-issues-on-fox-footy-on-the-couch/news-story/b0f7da9aafb06a6db683ace5230b5905?fbclid=IwAR2KN7LUYw58doNBygAj7b4qCXiQVVunCHbQsf3LbGvlApitZw43TvHBM8w_aem_AXVyVBMKuYAGiqbtbiyhSYZsTJY722i-LmyojPk5uIINDQ3LmVMG0lB5u6hZpDfAAPw&mibextid=Zxz2cZ

Until we start converting this domination we want beat the saints or anyone “, disposal (+70), contested possession (+42), clearance (+19) and inside 50 (+27) counts, while they also had 20 scoring shots to the Giants’ 12 These numbers continue to happen each week & it’s unbelievable how dysfunctional our Fw50 or our ability to how the ball enters! These numbers are winning big finals & flags of which we want on current standards & such a waste!

I’m betting ob losing the next 2 games Is it possible Goody who lead us to the top of the mountain is now pushing us off the cliff?

We will be making up numbers & go out in straight sets or not even make the 8, current trend mirrors last year fade out & getting worse, likely to lose our next 2 games. The issues around a flawed game plan are real, our small fwds are non existent, and our best tall is a 20yo @ Casey ! Pickett has lost form badly & Gawn looks like he’s not enjoying himself , something is miss more than game plan I’d say culturally atm

Loses against saints & lions is on the cards, may struggle to make the 8, will be a huge fall from grace if so, body language of Gawn just isn’t right, hope I’m wrong

Hate to say it but next 2 games will be loses .. struggle to make the 8, our captain just doesn’t look right physically or mentally.

What is the game plan??? Bomb it long & hope Brown, Gawn , Grundy mark it then see none of our small fwds try to crum and allow the opposition walk the ball out!

He’s a great player no question, but he’s field kicking today was terrible & he’s game overall hasn’t been polished, needs to get more mongrel in him

Watch them lose to the Saints & Lions, I’m calling want make top 4 & possible just make the 8, & possibly fall off the cliff next year .. hope I’m wrong but list will have underachieved, just too many so called stars are butchering the ball each week, are they selfless as in 2021?

What’s with Trac he’s kicking has gone backwards, sure wins enough of the ball but so watch if u butchering the kick. Hunter nit much better he just continues to turnover he’s kicks.

Agree the stats suggest we are just burning opportunities

Stole my thunder … we’re are the smalls to pick to collect from Brown who contested ??? The ball just kept coming back & resulted in their last goal for GWS it’s very poor & Pickett need to stop trying to take matk of the year!

Skill level was deplorable & kicking .., Trac kicking continued to get worse, Hunter kicking is a joke as kicks it straight to the opposition & has done so all season, fwd 50 entries are a joke , going long to Brown in wet conditions, honestly how dumb is that! The ball just kept coming out of their backline it’s so Frustrating watching dumb entries

Don’t deserve to make top 4 perhaps even finals & such a typical melb list , we have gone backwards & I fear a cliff is coming! continue to sell games mfc to play for 4 points in a suburban ground .. don’t see Collingwood doing this, but as long as we can help a community the 4 points mean jack !

Jvr can’t be the difference between winning or losing & shouldn’t! needs to be managed both physically & mentally. Plenty of fwd entries to suggest it’s the method

History suggest a typical melb of old loss coming

Spot on there is no way the Pies would except this & playing 3 away games in a row!

How does our club continue to get these clumsy fixture after winning a flag we still get drawn to play away against the Cats which makes it 3 games since our home game in early 2021! then followed by a home game in Alice Springs then a game @ Marvel , that’s 3 away games. Understanding the club has contracts in the Alice & was done when the club had sever finance issues but this 3 week period is so tricky & BS when see the Pies maximising to play as many games at the G!

Has Goody been asked the Petty decision to play him as a defender when he was playing fwd before his injury???

Either we have dumb players or our coach’s strategy is dumb.We continue to win the ball then blow it with dumb entries.., will this group be the biggest waste of talent to not win any more flags?

So the Afl are running a comp based on negotiated deals with individual clubs, what a joke

The reality can’t play each other twice so very simple one season you play home & the next away.. Cats have every right to play home games even host finals with new increased capacity.
