Yep, thx


Salem, Vanders, 2x McDonald and maybe Hunt were passable today. The rest were pitiful.

I know TMac had a few kicked on him but the ball was coming in with such ease and I think he battled manfully and created a bit of drive in the other direction.

 

 

Don't always agree - but enjoyable read - 

3 words...well done joeboy


Seriously?? Brayshaw was Melbourne's highest-ranked player today, and had his best game for the club (especially under the circumstances). Stretch was decent and fulfilled his role, especially in the second half. He generally manages to get the ball to another Melbourne player, which puts him ahead of most of his teammates.

Tiges:  diverting attention - thanks!

Next Season - losing confidence quickly 

Not sure why people are claiming Frost played well?  

12 disposals, just 52 SC points and he definitely butchered it a few times, like most of the team.  He tries to take it on, but the guy is jumpy and has no composure.

Buzzy have you ever played down back in a hundred point flogging? It is not much fun and anybody and everybody can be made to look very ordinary.

More of a mid myself.  But that is true - and he did look ordinary, like most of the team.

Thought Tom McDonald looked pretty good though!

  • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

    It seems like only yesterday that these two sides faced off against each other in the centre of the continent. It was when Melbourne was experiencing a rare period of success with five wins from its previous six matches including victories over both of last year’s grand finalists.  Well, it wasn’t yesterday but it was early last month and it remains etched clearly in the memory. The Saints were going through a slump and the predicted outcome of their encounter at TIO Traeger Park was a virtual no-brainer. A Melbourne victory and another step closer to a possible rise into finals contention. Something that was unthinkable after opening the season with five straight defeats.

  • REPORT: Carlton

    I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

  • CASEY: Carlton

    The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.
