We lost.. Deal with it.

LOL!

There's only one person commenting in this thread so far that seems unable to deal with the fact that we lost.

lol i was one of the few in this thread to tip that we would lose. The rest of you lot are trying desperately to come up with reasons why we are actually awesome, but cant seem to win.

 

Instead of wasting other posters time , why dont you find a way to fix the quoting problem on this site?

You are the only poster that I have seen manage to quote the full profile of someone. Stick to demonology maybe Ding?

 

I tap the "quote" button and the rest of this rubbish come up. Clearly not my problem but one of this site.

Cache cleared, and browser closed and re-opened. Demonland problem, not mine.

 

Thanks for your input though Rafiki, cant remember the last time i read someones input and was forced to place on the ignore list after one post before. Strange how you keep appearing.

 

 

 

 

I tap the "quote" button and this is what comes up.... i tried to put you on ignore but obviously this site is broken. Perhaps one of the mods can do it for me so i dont have to read your rubbish any more. ?

Thanks in advance mods.

 

Another umpires goal they got was when they said the kick out didn't go fifteen meters in the first quarter 

The commentators all said it was a wrong decision

Forget your password, that'll fix it.

 

Can we just close this thread already?

Some of the posts here are the most confusing things I have read in a long time!

Close but no ceegar.

Never and don't deserve it after giving away a 7-8  goal start! We need to take a leaf from Hawthorns book ! But of course we lack the same "Culture"

also who the F*** wa on Harvey??

I've lifted my self-imposed ban to give my summary of the game:

The umpires [censored] us right over and can all go and swim back from Tasmania as far as I'm concerned.

Remember Jack Riewoldt's self imposed ban?

Now Hardwicks put a ban on the players....comical.

Bad mistake by Watts in the last when he should have had  a shot (only about 30 out) went to pass to Hogan,  North intercepted and goaled.  12 point turnaround and would have had us 6 up. Overall good effort though and if we repeat that against pies and tiges we beat them. 

it was a really bad mistake and unlike Watts however I thought it was one of the first timed I've really seen him fearless. he threw himself headlong into that pack to take the mark. Geez it's taken a while but he's really stepping up now.

I joked that he was in shock, that's why he passed it.

 

No one laughed...

Explain which parts of my posts you think have been incorrect or shut your trap. We lost for the 16th time in a row to Norf. NORF. Why do you think my criticism is wrong?

Because your criticism is not being constructive in the slightest. Offer us something of value, mate. Yes, today was frustrating. Yes, we should have won. But we didn't. Stop whinging and look to next month for redemption.

I love looking at the table and seeing Collingwood, Carlton, Richmond and Essendon below us. Brilliant.

Not quite. The ball was put lace out for him. A perfect kick, but two North players closed down the space, but the kick was too good for them. He looks timid again to me. Like he did previous years. It's certainly confidence linked, because in the GWS game he did seem to enjoy body contact for the first time.

So i didnt say anything that was wrong, but because i didnt give the team a cuddle and offer encouragement, i am somehow incorrect..

 

See this is part of the reason the rest of the comp treat us as a joke. Constant defence of losses should be binned. I dont have to be constructive, i dont have to offer encouragement... i simply comment on the final result, which just happened to be the 16th loss in a row to North.

 

  • "Stop whinging and look to next month for redemption. "

No.......with MFC its always next round/month/year...............This has been going on for a decade. If thats good enough for you i suggest you support St Kilda.

Couple of things. Firstly, where did I defend the loss? And secondly, where did I say it was good enough for me? Your views are black and white, mate. Maybe you should go and support Collingwood?

Cant, I have all my own teeth.


Just got a PM pointing out how fcuking stupid i sound....

read back through the thread and sadly i agree.

Im just so goddamn sick of losing

Sorry all.

 

 

 

What a game, we have again found a way to win a game we could have won but given this was a far better side than many we did well.  We had chances but did not take them. No point blaming Watts, he was trying to honour a pass from Hogan. As I recall Watts stats kicking from that side on that angle at the MCG were pretty bad, so maybe he wanted to make sure. Does not matter we had a lot of other poor turnovers, bad frees, 50 meters given and lucky that a couple of other 50 meters were not, as well as miscellaneous poor shots from goals or passes directly to the opposition.

All in all a great effort, North are a pretty good side. The choice of keeping Lumumba in was a good one, he gave us run off the backline. Maybe frost was not the best option, but we needed a extra tall to take the ruck, he was one of the two options.  He will probably be a decent player given a bit more time. We do have a problem with only having Maxxy, while did a super human effort today, North did get back into the game every time he was off the ground.

All in all we are young side, very unlikely to make the 8, but looking to improve this year is about getting our game plan together and getting some consistency for our playing group as a team and getting same game time to our newer players. Today was a great start.

I am just waiting for the time when its not a nail biter,

If we play like that next week,albeit for the first Q my fingers might grow back,

I'll bet Buckleys shivering in his boots right now

Dees are paying $2.20 - $2.40 depending on who you bet with. 

Massive chance, put em your multi.

  • PREVIEW: Carlton

    Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.

  • REPORT: North Melbourne

    I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

  • CASEY: Werribee

    The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

    The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
