Too much focus on the last 40secs though poor defending we should turn our attention to all the [censored] turnovers which occurred prior to the last 40secs which continue to result in goals & gift the opposition games on the plate!

Ridiculous comment ... Just as frustrated as you mate..... We forget how far off the pace we wr in 2013... Turned over 18-20 players with more to come ....want fix our list issues in 2 drafts! Previous mgt screwed our list for close to 10 drafts!
-
Too many VfL players who can't play @ afl level..... I wonder how many goals were from dumb mistakes????
-
Typical result for a typical club as the MFC has done throughout it's history ... When will this club stop sinking the boots into its supporters & start repaying the faith?

Alex Neal-Bullen to Debut Round 11 vs St Kilda
Demonsone replied to Machsy's topic in Melbourne Demons
Well said... Whilst we have been starved of success & so many failed picks all these young players will take a number of preseasons to develop.... Patience is the key -
Hogan beaten .. Really .. 1 goal & marking contest created another.... Ball going into fwd line like big bombs...
-
I suppose Roos was the reason we came back???? Give me a break we don't have enough afl quality players @ both mental & skill required to compete for 120mins ... Another cull will occur by yr end...
-
Simply just don't have enough afl quality players! 13 goals from turnovers!!!!! Another clean out by year end!
-
All true & u can include the diabolical drafting & development including the rotten culture & poorly run club both on & off the field..... But what's the point...the club can only shape the future & a reminder to all of how just bad the club got & patience is required to fix the train wreck????

Is playing well... Does a lot of the ball & provides good leadership.... As supporters we expect too much from premiership players from other clubs.... Remember they are 1 of many good players in other teams lists who play their role...

We have to accept the bulk of our list is not up to playing @ the intensity required against too afl teams....Whilst Roos is accountable you can't polish a turd....I think most agree the majority of players he had brought in have worked, I dare say more changes will be made by yrs end!

1990 - The season that could easily have been ours
Demonsone replied to iv'a worn smith's topic in Melbourne Demons
1990 was a carbon copy from 87-91 we just couldn't make top 4 & get a double chance.... We seem to have lapses for a month or so & scramble to make the final 5 & have to play cut throat elimination finals....but 1990 was the best chance to win a flag as the it was a very even year for the teams in the finals.. -
Spot on.... I heard him on 360 .. I dare say there will be more changes year end.. We basically lack talent from a mental capacity to play @ the level of intensity required ....
-
Without blaming 1 player & he had some mates with him... But player wearing number 4 couldn't muster not 1 tackle! My concern is that tackling is a big part of Roos non negotiable & yet I just don't think its a part of his dna....
-
You reap what you sow! Prime example below we have 4 picks in top 20 & yet 6 yrs later we have 3 players gone & 1 who may never play again! Freo have a pick 20 who is an A grader now.... Get real people we butchered our picks for years & expect Roos to fix in 2 drafts! I'm positive as I see the players we have drafted in the last 2 yrs will turn us into the team who will play finals... 2009 draft Priority 1 Tom Scully Dandenong Stingrays TAC Cup Melbourne 1 2 Jack Trengove Sturt SANFL Melbourne 1 3 Dustin Martin Bendigo Pioneers TAC Cup Richmond 1 4 Anthony Morabito Peel WAFL Fremantle 1 5 Ben Cunnington Geelong Falcons TAC Cup North Melbourne 1 6 Gary Rohan Geelong Falcons TAC Cup Sydney 1 7 Brad Sheppard East Fremantle WAFL West Coast 1 8 John Butcher Gippsland Power TAC Cup Port Adelaide 1 9 Andrew Moore Eastern Ranges TAC Cup Port Adelaide 1 10 Jake Melksham Calder Cannons TAC Cup Essendon 1 11 Jordan Gysberts Eastern Ranges TAC Cup Melbourne 1 12 Kane Lucas East Fremantle WAFL Carlton 1 13 Daniel Talia Calder Cannons TAC Cup Adelaide 1 14 Lewis Jetta Swan Districts WAFL Sydney 1 15 Christian Howard Glenelg SANFL Western Bulldogs 1 16 Jasper McMillan-Pittard Geelong Falcons TAC Cup Port Adelaide 1 17 Daniel Menzel Central District SANFL Geelong 2 18 Luke Tapscott North Adelaide SANFL Melbourne 2 19 Benjamin Griffiths Eastern Ranges TAC Cup Richmond 2 20 Nathan Fyfe Claremont

How can you go from 24 pts up & lose by over 50Pts??? It's either fitness from a physical point or mentally cannot play 4 qtrs....

GAME DAY at Alice Springs - Round 9
Demonsone replied to Henrietta Lumbago's topic in Melbourne Demons
Understand we have a long way to go ... But to capitulate like this is a concern as it reflects on our senior leadership group wtf are they doing??? -
Sure do was 23yo & saw the dark days of the 70s & early 80s & got laughed @ school for being a MFC supporter.... We come close to a flag & actually would say 1990 was the best year to win as it was very eaven but continue to finish 5th & not in the top 4... Can't compare lists now vs 87 as they were are hard defensive group with more games under their belt... Our time will come...

Ffs bail can't kick

You think he would get a game @ haw, Syd, Geel (, freo we no the answer) I wander if he would have played 150 games with those clubs??? The thought of some posters wanting him back @ our club ..Honestly Roos is trying to create a culture not sent it backwards!
-
The point were missing here ... is one club culture allowed him to get away with poor worth ethics & 1 didn't .... It's a poor reflection on the MFC pre Roos era & I dare say Roos worked him out....
-
Never forget this qualifying final in 2000..... Almost got there Neil...
-
Very sad to happen to such a nice person & a coach who gave his all to the footy club..... The club should support him & his family as much as possible.... 10 yr coach, 6 final series, 2 prelims, & 1 GF all out of Junction Oval training facilities!
-
Isn't this just the whole problem that we always want to get a handout.....We are @ round 8 & we're talking priority picks! I
