Great experience for the boys playing in front of massive crowd

 

Hibberd's first quarter better than Melksham's whole career.

Went off briefly, back on looks a bit sore but ok

Yeah. But is it his operated knee??

Once again dominated the inside 50s but couldn't make it happen on the scoreboard. Should be a few goals up. Here's for a big 2nd quarter 

Really have to make the most of this.

Hibberd very impressive.

 

Just me ...or umpiring a bit naff ??

Not excusing ..just saying.


I can't make my mind up on ANB. He's a mixed bag. Every time I think I'm a fan he does something VFLish.

Maybe the truth is somewhere in the middle.

We just know how to win the ball. The problem is conversion. We are so manic with the ball that we sometimes don't know what option to use. We flood our own forward line. They had 5 inside 50s for 4 shots. Each shot coming from transition or an error at how half forward. 

We should be 8 goals up.

Yeah

With sheer weight of numbers we should stroll this one in. But then I said that last week…and the week before too.

But we don't get value for our dominance should be 2 goal up at least

Kid is really improving and could eventually be quite handy. Give him a bit more time i reckon.

"Role player".  He's an average user of the ball which is being exacerbated by the wet.  Has been good up until this week.

Back 6 looking solid.

Hunt, Hibberd & Tmac on top with assistance from Mr Vince.

Hogan running under ball a few times.

Jones in everything but keep your feet son.

Cool hand Clarry has it on a string, bringing others into the game, clearance King.

Our gang tackling through the roof.

Viney kick quickly forward when you get a break... Hesitating a little too often and hand balling back to players under the pump or to no one. Looking close to his better form though. Just clean it up a little and go more direct when free instead of wide / backwards

Hows Hibberd btw?....

Has been excellent so far, especially considering how long he has been out.

 

That was deliberate lol


Frosty! Most Overdoing the handball a little too much. 

Someone PLEEEEASE grab that arrogant bike offspring's arm and break it!!

F'n awful

Frost is far superior to Oscar McDonald.

 

Hibberd made the fatal mistake of hand balling to Melksham who turned it over.

 

Viney just trying to take em on too often when under too much heat. We are bigger bodied generally

  • PREVIEW: Essendon

    Not long ago, the narrative surrounding Melbourne was steeped in pessimism. There was some concern among the pundits (and even some fans) that the club would arrive at the AFL’s Gather Round still winless, vulnerable to a familiar adversary in the Essendon Football Club, and facing significant scrutiny from an ever-critical media on a national stage. Things have changed.

  • REPORT: Gold Coast

    Steven King astutely identified the issues that had plagued the Melbourne Football Club over the past two and a half seasons when he auditioned for the newly created coaching role. The side that had claimed the 2021 premiership had become stodgy, slow-paced, and hesitant to take the initiative.
