Mmmmmmm, Watts havin a go as r all the lads havin a dip at the pill........

After some pretty ordinary footy, the Dees finally score with a really nice bit of work from Watts.

Brad Green, Aaron Davey, Brent Moloney - Melbourne's "star" senior players everyone. Not the greatest start to the year for them.

Could be the start of the leadership change fallout... Although we are only 1 quarter into the season

Is it wrong that I'm over this season already?

Our midfield is killing me. So many battlers.

At least the weather is beautiful.

If any one needed to be shown why Trengove is a capt they need only be here today. He's taken to it like a duck to water.

Overall it's not a lot to cheer about . Some sublime moments ruined by some very loose manning in defense. We are not getting a clean first use at stoppages. Endeavor is good, execution is so so. Magnet a terrif find.

Hopefully we'll see some better footy in second half

If this is Melbourne pumped, I am a bit worry when the Jim stynes factor starts to settle. Fundamental errors costing us and a lack of effort from our most senior players. Hopefully the 2nd half will be a little different. Torch has to replaced on Davey and Green, especially.

Yes it is wrong, considering we're still in the game and our senior players are showing Neeld what they're really made of. The sooner he learns what we already know about them, the better off we'll be.

Doesn't matter who you have in the forward line we can't buy a bloody clearance fair dinkum!

Davey isn't AFL standard anymore hate to say it. He watches and hopes for a dish out. He's lost his pace and his little 15 metre passes do nothing.

Moloney is doing nothing.

Jones started good and went a bit quiet. Good signs by Magner and Tynan showing a bit of heart. Bail very good, Martin showing signs and if Howe could hang on to his marks he would be a lot better.

This is going to be a long, long season. God we lack midfield class and it is plain for all to see!

Posted

Oh and Trengove solid, Grimes and Rivers started good. Apart from those positives the rest have been average. Long season :(

Posted

These umpires are [censored]! I hate this game!

Posted

The umpires have screwed them just as much as they have us.

Posted

A long season looms I'm afraid if this goes on

Posted

No heart. No determination. No guts.

So far today, an embarrassment for our entire club.

If they can't turn it around today, I think I'm done.

I know it's Round 1 blah blah blah, but enough is enough, we will never have more reason to win than today and we still can't muster up a decent effort.


Posted

Moloney and Davey will find themselves at Casey next week.

I can't stomach this rubbish. Disgusting. Constant bombing it forward. Every. Single. Time.

Why is Clint Bartram a leader?

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
