Maybe we could wait for the game to start before we start slagging the players?

He's in the team, give him a chance.

Ok,20 minutes in,Bail kicks to Robinson for a GOAL,stupid mistake BAIL!!!

Channel 7 commentary, is Melbourne negative. Cometti " I don't want to be negative but I reckon Watts could have done more" Struth watts didn't even know he was coming

Ascendancy lost due to some brain fades. Whilst we lead by 1 point at qtr time, you have to question the mentality of some of the players. Twice Rivers was caught out of position due to poor kicking going out of bounds or lack of vision.

Great goal by Blease. Undisciplined Frawley's on Robinson late which cost virtually a direct goal.

3 stupid mistakes for 3 goals.

Winning the CP 40-38 but 14 tackles isn't enough.

Someone get on Simpson,before he racks up 40.

He could have met the ball or made a contest using peripheral vision. Rather than sit back and wait. The kicker should have been smarter.

I cann't believe what you've just said. this is a clear example of how Watts' softness costs us goals. Its just embarrassing. The ball was coming in and he looked to the side to see the carlton player closing so he DECIDES to let the ball come to him so he won't look accountable and won't cause a collision. Cometti just said what everyone else was thinking. Watts is so F#ckin' soft

The kick was inexcusable but Jack did NOT attack the ball - rather decided to wait and see.

One thing that is very noticeable - when Carlton players give off a handball they always then lay a shepherd: our guys don't. Something to learn.

Great kick by rivers to set up Bail. Bail to Clark, good mark . Goal !

Edit: Hampsons height and lead too much trouble for Rivers. Midfield needs to put more pressure on.

Surely Rivers ain't the match for Hansen physically -- Sellar?

Hampson is destroying Riv in the one on one.

Maybe in marking contests, but he's only kicked what 1 goal? And Riv has setup MOST of our play, I'd take that as a matchup

    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.
