Jones - was well held

Viney - continued poor season

Salem - far from convincing

Watts - some isolated class

Petracca - just some cameos

Tyson - prolific but wasteful

Oliver - many irrelevant handballs

Stretch - quieter than usual

Kent - was hardly noticed

Frost - some good interceptions 

Melksham - nothing to impress

Hannan - not senior standard

Vince - game has passed

McDonald - was generally steady

Weideman - nothing to impress

Hunt - too predictable today

Neal-Bullen - improving each week

Bugg - had no impact

Spencer - almost broke even

Garlett - took his chances

Jetta - always slows momentum

Harmes - tried but rough

    Weed. Too the twos.

    Fairly good assessment, but can't agree with Kent, McDonald or Spencer.

    Kent played a hand in many of our scoring chains and put his body on the line time and time again. Thought he was very good.

    I'm not normally a McDonald basher but today's game was horrendous. He made so many stupid errors that I walked out of the G wondering if he has two brain cells to rub together. Couldn't believe some of the stuff he did.

    Spence got slaughtered in the hit outs but was good around the ground.

    McDonald - Was The Oscar?

    Frost - I prefer Oscar

    I disagree with 80% of those assessments

    Jones :-  Lack of Leadership.      When the freo run was on I watched him closely.  No voice, no marshalling the troops, no sprays......  after each goal he just trudged back to the centre with his head down.

    Bernie :-  Makes Stupid Decision.    Don't think the game has passed him, but he's made and attempted stupid plays all his career.

    Overall I think the gameplay of manic play on and throw the ball around until hopefully someone is in space is to compensate for our lack of leg speed.  Unfortunately, not any options in the twos with real pace.

    Didn't mind Frost's game when called upon. Can't blame him for the spoil not quite making it to the line. TMac also fought well but was on his own. Kent was good for a lead up forward lacking height. Though you did miss one.

    Hogan: Minus 8 points

    Careful about sledging Hunt and Kent in the same sentence. I thought both played well and Hunt was fantastic.

    Hunt and Kent ok

    Bad loss, yes, but really cant believe some on here.  Yes, today's loss hurt no doubt, but look at Lewis and Hogan first.  If they were in we win.  Simple.  We lost by 2 points ffs.  We are still learning.  It will get better

    It's not the 2 point loss 'Iva', it flattered us.

    We were dreadful today and when they got a run on we had no structure at all. Just 18 headless chooks on the ground at a time.

    Yep. 2 point loss and we were headless. Makes a lot of sense that.  We headed them by 21 at half time and if we had the class of Lewis and Hogan we win.

    Hunt is probably our best player. Our real problem is Viney - he is looking like a one trick pony.

    • 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.
