Game Day Melb v Richmond

Featured Replies

Posted

It's our home game. They have 7 outs. We are injury depleted but have won a lot of contested football this year - one of Richmond's achilles heels.

It's a beautiful winters day here in Melbourne - bright blue sky, no wind and qwuite warm in the sun. I'm tipping Melbourne.

Go Dees!

 

Will be stoked if we win this. Cannot see how we'll kick a winning score though.

Clark is without doubt our most important player.

Quietly confident about today but have to agree.

Someone needs to step up in the forward line both on the scoreboard and with forward 50 pressure.

We can only beat Richmond & Essendon at the 'G so i am expecting today.

One day we will learn to win away from the womb.


I'm hoping Dunn can lead from the square to drag at least 1 defender out of the FF line so Garland and/or Rivers can have a decent poke at taking a grab.

Would love to see Howe swing in behid from the opposite flank to get some space to time a run at a hanger as well.

If all else fails, Dunn kicking for goal from 40-55m isn't that bad an option either.

We'll see.

Sylvia needs to continue improving and bag 3 or 4 if we are gonna win. Garland and Dunn for a couple each and some midfield goals Howe Jones the Jack attack and we will manage... Kicking a winning score does look unlikley though :(

GO DEES

I'm really hoping that Neeld doesn't do with Watts what he did last week and put him on Riewoldt. More because he and Chip have great duals and Chip usually comes out on top, I'd really like to see Watts be given a bit of freedom to move forward a bit and make someone accountable on him.

Also want to see Howe played forward, we need marking targets in the 50 and he can make bad kicks work for him.

 

Took North and Melbourne in a double.......Kangaroos giving it to WC atm.....heres hoping!

Absolutely insipid. That "chase" from Bennell through the middle of the ground was pathetic. 1st quarter and he's giving it the token jog.

Come on Dees!!!!!!!


Rivers is not a forward, Rivers is not a forward, Rivers is not a forward.....

Great goal Sam!!


15 rounds in and we look MORE unorganized than we did at the start of the year.

Shouldn't we be further advanced in learning the gameplan etc by now?

This is disgraceful.

 

Lost cause with players with no skill, decision making or workrate. Stef Martin and spencer are double face palm worthy.

    Melbourne have held talks with Clayton Oliver and they’ve laid out where he fits in under Steve King’s vision and been frank about expectations. Oliver is still under contract for five years, but the door is open if he wants to explore his options elsewhere.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Essendon

    It’s Pink Lady night at Princes Park — a vibey Friday evening setting for a high-stakes clash between second-placed Melbourne and eleventh-placed Essendon. The wind-sheltered IKON Park, a favourite ground of the Demon players, promises flair, fire and a touch of pink. Melbourne has never lost a home-and-away game here, though the ghosts of two straight-sets finals exits in 2023 still linger.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: # 1 Steven May 

    The premiership defender has shown signs of wear and tear due to age, and his 2025 season was inconsistent, ending poorly with a suspension and a noticeable decline in performance. The Demons are eager to integrate younger players onto their list and have indicated that they may not be able to guarantee him senior games next season, in what would be the final year of his contract.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: # 2 Jacob van Rooyen

    The young key tall failed to make progress during the season, with a decline in his goal kicking output. His secondary role as a backup ruckman, which may have hindered his ability to further develop his game, and he was also impacted by the team's poor forward connection. It will be interesting to observe his performance under a new coaching regime.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: #3 Christian Salem   

    Salem proved to be a valuable contributor as a reliable and solid one-on-one medium-sized defender in what was undoubtedly his most impressive season since the premiership year. He remains a highly capable rebounding option for the Demons as he approaches his 200th game at the club.
