Re: Demons. Absolute disgrace.
Much better performance, but if only they could have kicked one more goal - Hawthorn would still be on top....
I think Melbourne are going to win a game very soon, if they continue with the endeavour I saw yesterday.

Yeah was a good performance. Actually wanted it for a change and stuck to a game plan. Helps when a few of your 'leaders' like Bruce actually show up also. Maybe a little light at the tunnel end.

Getting hard to watch. At least us fans that turn up don't cop much **** as most feel sorry for us peeps that watch that every week.
Time to stop worrying about your own man and more about the footy dees.
Too bewildered to post much more. Few beers into me and that might change.

Re: Demons. Absolute disgrace.
Yep absolutely disgusting...I as going in with actually some expectations cause all I had heard about the Geelong game was that we were hard at it and stuck to our game plan! So what the hell happened yesterday? Did anyone get to the Geeling game that can give an appraisal?
As for yesterday, Dunn, Wonaeamirri, Davey and I thought Whelan all put in a decent effort but most of everyone else was missing again. Is Meeson injured? Cause surely he'd be in the team above Jamar?
And again I noticed both our ruckmen on the ground and both running to the ball up contests from where ever they may be on the ground, even if it is at half back and they are lining up in the full forward position...what the hell is Bailey doing? They both look so so lost whenever that situation arises cause they don;t know who should be going for it?
Other than that, I have a side note. And I mean a side note, I'm not a whinging Collingwood supporter and in NO WAY would this have changed the result yesterday, but I was sitting with a North Melbourne Supporter and a mate who is a VFL Umpire and we all agree that it was the worst unpiring performance we have ever seen. John (the north melbourne supporter) was enbarressed at the 'charity' (as he called it) they were recieving from the (quote from an angry spectator) "Yellow Wiggles" (haha Gold!
) with not really inconsistant stuff per say, but just some decisions that were absolutely, complete and utterly uselessly incorrect! The North fans were booing also!! But like I said, no reflection on the result as we are simply terrible.
Carlton next week...I don;t know if I want Carlton to win today so we have no pressure to keep their losing streak going, or I want Collingwood to win (ewwww) to make their streak 15 and the worst ever!!
Have been copping **** from a Carlton supporter for weeks now who simply must be a moron and doesn;t realise his team is just as hopeless, if not more hopeless...
Um...well as you have said Chad there isnt much to say....
Gotta just try to improve week on week now....

I watched Sandy live last week and Meeson is crap. The fact he went off injured late wouldnt' have saved him the fate of the Russian being picked anyway. Meeson can run and thats about it from what i saw. Jamar was quite good in the ruck and in front of goal though for Sandy.

Just wondered about Meeson. Crap you say, well I await Paul Johnsons return!Re: Demons. Absolute disgrace.
Thought by now I might be able to create a new thread rather than keep this one going.....
Why oh why when we are winlesss are we so defensive minded and flood back when its never going to result in what we really need....GOALS!
Blessing in disguise. Nieta with a shoulder and even though Newton is on the outer with our coach he will surely be an in next week.
Another disgracefull effort by our supporters not turning up. My section is soley season long reserved seats and its was only 20% today. They pay and don't turn up.
At the half way point of the second half we actually hit the front for the first time this year and the dee's had the blues rattled and worried. In steps Judd and bang Carlton kick on.
On the scoreboard we won the second half today although even 5 goals down felt like 15 with our forward line.
Surely Bailey and his structure is under real pressure now?
Waiting with baited breath for Bate, Pettard, Newton to come back in. Yze can stay in the seconds as he isn't interested in trying even for Sandy.
Green on another note looked great up forward, Beamer at least shows some fire, Aussie continues to impress third game on.
Still just lots of shake ya head footy....
Tough times for us fans.

Re: Demons. Absolute disgrace.
I really wanted Melbourne to win today, despite the fact I tipped Carlton... I think Melbourne ar elosing focus, they get xclose, go goal for goal or something and then drift right out of the game. They'll shock somebody soon just by focusing for 4 quarters.

Re: Demons. Absolute disgrace.
It's completely attitude based. They just don;t want to try. I don't know if it's the coach not getting respect or the players just not giving a damn, but our structure is terrible and so our delivery forward becomes terrible and how the hell are we then meant to score? We looked solid in the last cause finally our structure seemed to work a bit better with the smaller forward line, but no avail.
Brad Green put in well today and while Crap Mclean got some ball, he was plahying on Judd whom was the reason they kicked away...
Neitz gone, but might not be a bad thing...unless Newton comes back in and then God help us...
I just want to see 1 game where we want it and go hard at it all day. So far it hasn;t been for even a quarter in any 1 game...
