N.Jones- had little impact

Watts - relevant no longer

Dawes - tried without impacting

Viney - failed to impose

Frawley - going through motions

Tyson - prolific , not damaging

Dunn - just a game

Kent - was rarely sighted

Cross - professional as expected

Garland - was hardly noticed

Michie - a Casey performance

Kennedy - Harris - just a kid

McDonald - amateur against professional

Riley - effective when subbed

Barry - some hurried efforts

Gawn - one promising light

Howe - loose but classy

Jamar - probably broke even

Bail - continued poor form

M.Jones - little to commend

Jetta - brave and relentless

Vince - few worthwhile possessions

    Melbourne FC: worst in comp

    Thoughtful

    Trolls night out?

    Hawks are top of the table or thereabouts, we found a few who can play against contenders , we've got 1/2 a dozen NQR we know about and a couple who have had plenty of chances were sorted from previous week.

    Prefer it to last week thanks.

    Each of our players was playing against a TOP opponent and had team mates that fully supported each other, the analysis above would suggest we lost by 100+ points. A lot of players did not get a lot of stats but did their bit, i thought it was a pretty good team effort marred by our inability to get the ball into our forward line often enough and lack of ball skill which resulted in us missing targets and turning the ball over frequently.

    Last week the Hawks polished off the Bulldogs by 62 points in a canter. Our effort wasn't that horrible. Couple of babies in the best in the seconds as well. More work needed but we're on the right trail.

    I watched the game and found Dom Barry okay when he was involved in the play. He ran hard both ways, was part of a few useful linking plays out of the backline and used it well when he got it. He looked lost at times, yet other times read the play well. Look, he has a long way to go, but the fact he started on the ground and was odds on to be subbed and wasn't (that honor went to Bail) shows he is progressing.Given he signed a new deal, I was happy to see some of the progress the club obviously sees with him.

    Gawn must play the final 3 rounds. I think the Russian's best football is now behind him, and I think he might have one year left in the tank, two at best. That leaves the cupboard bare for ruck prospects outside of Gawn. He needs to be thrust into the #1 ruck role sooner rather than later. Outside of Gawn there are some question marks of Spencer and Fitzy, and King is miles off. If Gawn isn't ready for the #1 job by the end of next season we are going to struggle moving forward.

    Jetta gave Puopolo a bath! If he had played 20 rounds this year he would be a lock for an AA backman.

    Agree. The ins this week have upside the outs don't.

    totally agree, the pessemistic attitude of most on this site is tiresome at best!!!!

    Very hard on Jamar (won clearly in the ruck) Michie and Tom McDonald. Have a look at Roughhead's goals--several were gifts on the goal line

    Jamar....tries hard...delist.

    One of the more absurd comments I've ever encountered.

    The previous week he easily beat Stefan Martin in the ruck (yes Stefan got a number of possessions but rarely on Jamar) and again this week he won the ruck contests.

    It's stupid he's not in the leadership group. He is giving 110 percent

    Giving 110% doesn't necessarily make you a leader.

    It's just a matter of opinion, but I think your comment is absurd.

    I'm not alone in thinking Mark Jamar has passed his use-by date.

    Many would challenge your contention that he "easily beat" Stef Martin against Brisbane. I reckon Stef's annihilation of Jamar was crucial in their defeat of us.

    He was better v. the Hawks, but I felt big Max Gawn showed he's a class above.

    • Thank You Simon Goodwin

      As Demon fans, we’ve ridden a rollercoaster of emotions over the decades; the heartbreaks, the near misses, the wooden spoons, and the endless waiting. But through it all, we clung to hope. And then came Simon Goodwin. Before he ever wore red and blue, he was a champion in his own right. A five-time All-Australian, two-time Best and Fairest, and two-time premiership hero and Captain with Adelaide, Simon Goodwin was always destined to lead. When he transitioned from the field to the coach's box, first as an assistant at Essendon, he began shaping a new legacy.

    • PREVIEW: Western Bulldogs

      Long ago and far away, the Melbourne Football Club replaced its coach in difficult circumstances after the team suffered a devastating loss. In the aftermath, I penned the following words: “Then came the politics, the intrigue, the axing, the sound of the football world laughing at a club, the circling of the media vultures, the reinvention of history, the anger, the irony, the pathos, the hurt on the face of the president, the dignified departure of the coach, and the determination of the newly appointed caretaker.” Today, we’re back in the same place although one difference here is that the coach who was terminated this time is Simon Goodwin, the man who four years ago

    • REPORT: West Coast

      The Charles Dickens novel, A Tale of Two Cities, opens with, “It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, …”  This phrase highlights many of the significant challenges that humanity encounters in life, ranging from experiencing remarkable highs to living in times of despair. This is a concept that should resonate with all supporters of the Melbourne Football Club this morning as they reflect on its comprehensive 83-point victory over the struggling West Coast Eagles at Marvel Stadium. The outcome proved beyond doubt that they are the worst of clubs and that we are the best of the worst.

    • PREGAME: Western Bulldogs

      With only 3 games to go, all against Top 8 fancies, the Demons face a daunting task as they return to the MCG when they play the Western Bulldogs. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      The Demons return to town fresh off a thumping win over the back-to-back wooden spooners, the West Coast Eagles, played in front of a sparse crowd at Marvel Stadium, the same venue that hosted last week's heartbreaking loss.
