When I see a mistake I look at what options he had and to see what actions by others lead up to the mistake.

If you follow the chain of events he is usually put in tough situations by his teammates.

Yep, looks like his only option was the lady in row C.

James Hird just lost all credibility. Just ranked Bruce alongside Green as 'most important kicks in Melbourne's team'.

Lots of cheap goals coming for the Saints now... Dam looks close to bursting...

Sounds like the umps are killing us again. MMM people are being careful of what they say, but it's clear that the calls are going against us again and many of them are bad ones. Holding the ball on Green right before half time?

Ok, so Cheeney will be not playing next week, if he does not cop a week for either hit on Goddard then he needs to be dropped, offered zilch.

Can some one please, PLEASE explain why Jetta plays? Half chases, does not run with players who 70 meters later get the ball. He offers very little, and I am struggling every week to see what he offers. it's not like he kicks 3-5 goals a week like Milne.

Grimes may have done a hammy.

THe holding the ball against green was there he dropped it. but what was Jetta doin??? And Watts ducking his head and not marking it!

Need the first goal after half-time. Is Grimes ok? heard he may be injured.

Green and Moloney very good, why is Bruce captain and not Beamer???

Competitive so far. Three or four skill errors with the feet that top sides will kill you on turnover. Jetta & Watts lively for kids, Bater needs to lift. We've done a lot worse. Green terriffic. Hope we can keep going at the same level for four quarters.Hope Grimey hasn't done a hammy.

Dockett 32, explain lively for Jetta. To me he will run hard when he has the ball or the player is within 2-3 meters then will give up when they are 5, he did one chase where the guy loped away from him and the way he was pumping his arms and swinging his head he prob used more energy on those acvtions than the action of running.

jone did really well on Dal Santo that quarter.

Lucky goal against the flow, the numbers, and the odds, but......

We. Are. A. Mess.

I stood up for Bailey for ages but I'm really wavering this year....

DUNNNNNNYYYYY!!! Thatta boy... Slowly getting some momentum, a Saints goal would pretty much stop it, but next one to us and we'll have our heads up!

Saints 67

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the
