The Ox on SEN


Recommended Posts

Posted

Its just a bake on all except Viney. Too much to go into.

The Ox is gutted saying the club has gone backwards.

What we are saying..

Missed the start, but Finey not thinking much of Sellar and Pedo.

Ox wondering what's happened to Jamar and Frawley, saying they're not the same players they were and have gone backwards at "100 miles an hour".

Posted

The Ox: Today was the worst footy in 10 years.

Finey: fitness is shocking, guys huffing and puffing in the first quarter, off field coaches etc need to take responsibility

Ox sounded as frustrated as any of us.

Sat with Jim Styne's dad and both were appalled by Jamar's ruckwork.

Praised Hinkley for what he's been able to do in 4 months with a "basket case" like Port. (hint hint Neeld)

No surprise there. I posted this many times. If Jamar's toes were midfielders we'd win every clearance.

Yep jamar seems soft. Knows he has no competition so doesn't jump just plays jump ball. I agree with ox.

Really though a lot of teams play young talls no better than pedo and sellar and beat us. It's a mindset and generally 22 issue which falls to the coaches.

Misso might have the fitness up but anyone who watches Melbourne train should know that the quality of training is still really bad

His tapping has gone a long way backwards, he lumbers around the ground (well, the square maybe), and he gotten beaten today by possibly the worst ruck combo going.

Just settle. Only one game. Give some credit to pa? sadly I do agree with all comments re Jamar though. He's ordinary.

Must of been awful. Dees were very bad last year.

There is a direct link between Jamar's form drop and when he signed that big contract!!

Yep , only 198cm, not to mention being Hudson's [censored] and gentle as a lamb. Huge part of our midfield problem IMO.

The ox should step up and take charge of the club - Mclardy needs to step aside. We someone to make everyone accountable.

What qualifications does Ox have besides being on radio? Passion for the club doesn't count.

    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

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo. The play start time was brought forward from the initial 11am bounce, due to the high temperatures forecast.  The match sim will consist of four 25-minute qu
