65 tackles to 102 with Oliver having 10 of those tackles. The players don’t care. 

Garlett wont put his body on the line. Fact.

I could understand anyone being tempted

Who are our leaders on field? No one stood up. It was was just dumb football all round, no footy smarts. Hawthorn kept kicking it long the ground that whole 3rd quarter and we kept trying to pick it up. How hard is it to play wet weather footy?? Surely that would have to have been the message at half time.

We played dumb and got outworked. Pretty pathetic.

Culture and coaching are out two biggest issues followed by half a list of mediocre unprofessional footballers.

What a bunch of pathetic blokes.

Am shocked at this performance

Below 100% in one game. Weaker than Carlton. They have an excuse. They are [censored].

The Melbourne players have all gone home!

What a deplorable effort!  13 seconds from one Hawthorn goal to the next!

Has anyone told them they're supposed to play the WHOLE game!

What happened? The first quarter was fantastic. What the hell happened?

The Hawks were very busy applying pressure on us, whenever they could in the 1st Qtr.

 

This IS the Key. 

For a contested ball winning team, after winning the clearance, OUR quality disposal is the most important thing from that point.

This is where Clarko knows US,,, and he got us;  Just as he has done to other teams... eg:  the Swans in that Grand Final against the Hawks.

 

Clarko:-   apply relentless pressure until the opponent CRACKS UP_  make them gun-shy for the rest of the game, and they will feel it ALL game.

 

Unfortunately WE start to panic,,, before our players do, and we start to "eat our own"_ vocally, with our venom.

Our negativity becomes loud and vocal at US,,,,, instead of at our Opponents.

 

The opposition team also Feels this negativity against our own__  and they inturn grow another LEG. we boost the opposition,,,handing them a game on a platter for the taking, IF they can.

 

And the Hawks never need be asked, a 2nd time....   they take it and off.

Wow. I’m glad I got dragged to a wiggles concert, I caught the last quarter. What a pathetic team we support sometimes.  We have beaten no one of worthy this year.  The tigers will do us by 120next week if we play like this.

Another positive is I can plan a business trip in September without having to go in the bye week and miss my birthday.

    2024 Player Reviews: #1 Steven May

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons.

    2024 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025.

    Once again the club’s top goal scorer but he had a few uncharacteristic flat spots during the season and the club will be looking for much better from him in 2025.

    2024 Player Reviews: #3 Christian Salem

    The luckless Salem suffered a hamstring injury against the Lions early in the season and, after missing a number of games, he was never at his best. He was also inconvenienced by minor niggles later in the season. This was a blow for the club that sorely needed him to fill gaps in the midfield at times as well as to do his best work in defence.

    The first round draft pick at #13 from twelve months ago the strongly built medium forward has had an impressive introduction to AFL football and is expected to spend more midfield moments as his career progresses.
