What a pickup and handball from Gawn!
 

Better team by far but handed them easy goals. That 50, dropped mark, and free kick to Cameron all easy goals.


Mitch White hasn't looked out of place, prefer him to Lumumba off half back.

Brain fades aside, not a bad start

Hogan's goal kicking is off which is a shame

Really like Stretch. Starting to grow on me the kid.

I tell you, it's all about appalling skill level. The endevour is there, they just can't hit targets

Our season in a nutshell.
 

Jones and Grimes costing us goals. The leadership stinks.

We leak goals worse then any other team. 1 free to Cameron. 1 free to Whitfield and Grines dropped mark. 3 easily avoidable goals.


If the senior players Dunn, Grimes, Howe, McDonald didn't stuff everything up we'd be winning easily.

Grimes is seriously a coach killer. Needs to be traded or he'll spend all of next year at Casey.

Stretch and Salem are about the only 2 who you don't mind with ball in hand. Where it'll end up is a lottery with pretty much everyone else.

Has turned it over a few times. At least he is getting it.


Winning clearances, horrors to advantage, time in possession... It will be all about our skill level.

We need some class in the backline urgently. You can carry one bad kick back there, not the whole lot of them.

Stitching them up in every stat. 20 inside 50s to 12. 7 marks inside 50 to 2. More clearances. More contested and uncontested possessions. More tackles.

Same score and scoring shots.

Our brains farts and skills lead to goal leaking. Every single one of their goals came from dumb turnovers from experienced players.

Salem is fast becoming my favourite.

No Jetta and Dunn down back is hurting us


our skills are lamentable.

our effort is there or thereabouts for a middle-ranked side, but our appalling skill level pushes us down to bottom handful in the competition.

grimes ,grimes,grimes .you have to go,so called senior players ,good bye.jones may be captain but it does not excuse shocking mistakes

 

0h for one bob flower kicking the ball to hogan

  • PREVIEW: North Melbourne

    Can you believe it? After a long period of years over which Melbourne has dominated in matches against North Melbourne, the Demons are looking down the barrel at two defeats at the hands of the Kangaroos in the same season. And if that eventuates, it will come hot on the heels of an identical result against the Gold Coast Suns. How have the might fallen? There is a slight difference in that North Melbourne are not yet in the same place as Gold Coast. Like Melbourne, they are currently situated in the lower half of the ladder and though they did achieve a significant upset when the teams met earlier in the season, their subsequent form has been equally unimpressive and inconsistent.

  • REPORT: Adelaide

    The atmosphere at the Melbourne Football Club at the beginning of the season was aspirational following an injury-plagued year in 2024. Coach Simon Goodwin had lofty expectations with the return of key players, the anticipated improvement from a maturing group with a few years of experience under their belts, and some exceptional young talent also joining the ranks. All of that went by the wayside as the team failed to click into action early on. It rallied briefly with a new strategy but has fallen again with five more  consecutive defeats.
