Jones - never stopped trying

Jetta - just a shadow

McDonald - disciplined and impressive

Hibberd - brave but flawed

Oliver - mostly wasted possessions

Salem - soft under pressure

Tyson - missing second half

Hogan - played with heart

Stretch - just a plodder

Brayshaw - just a game

Harmes - continued poor season

Petracca - talents are wasted

Vince - game has passed

Neal-Bullen - irrelevant and fading

Gawn - effective but friendless

Kent - quiet before injury

Lever - 4 solid quarters

Wagner - disappeared after first

Weideman -little to excite

Hunt - continues downward spiral

Garlett - waste of space

Melksham - took his chances

Yep, agree with most of that 'joeboy', pretty fair summation.

I think Oscar was very good again.

Apart from that all I could add is...

MFC - too many passangers

Jetta - something desperately wrong (could hardly raise a trot at one stage, still courageous - anyone know about an injury? Hope it is not accumulated concussions.)

Lever - Crows are laughing

 

Garlett - blip on radar

Weideman - showed some thing

Frost - should have played

Hunt - persist with him

Petracca - smashed Trent Cotchin

Petracca - robbed Peter topaypaul

Wagner - no ball security

Stretch - no ball security

Oscar - no ball security

Gawn - all heart today

Hogan - our best forward.

 

Richmond - quick and hard

Oliver - mostly wasted possessions (doesn't kill opposition)

Salem - soft under pressure (worth persisting with)

Tyson - missing second half (usual from him)

Hogan - played with heart (continuing impressive development)

Stretch - just a plodder (Tick)

Brayshaw - just a game (in best 22)

Harmes - continued poor season (bathwater problem)

Petracca - talents are wasted (drinking Harmes' bathwater)

Vince - game has passed (better than most)

Neal-Bullen - irrelevant and fading (Did he play?)

Gawn - effective but friendless (His efforts wasted)

Kent - quiet before injury (wasting out time)

Lever - 4 solid quarters (incremental improvement weekly)

Wagner - disappeared after first (wasting our time)

Weideman -little to excite (worth persisting with)

Hunt - continues downward spiral (headless chook . . . quack!)

Garlett - waste of space (really p$ss weak)

Melksham - took his chances (earned pay cheque)

Sorry Joeboy, but if you don't go to the game (as you obviously didn't), then taking pot shots at players for lack of courage (eg: Salem) is weak as [censored]!

Unless joeboy doesn't live close enough to go to the games...?  There are supporters who don't live within striking distance of the 'G.

Thought Weiderman was good for first game since last year, Harmes, ANB and Stretch must be dropped for Pedo, Hannen and Fritsch. Why was Fritsch dropped anyway FFS....main out is Goodwin, can’t coach, we know there’s disunity in there. After the camp debacle, now he’s banished McCartney downstairs WTF is going on???

Weid was one of my highlights and his rucking was pretty good too. 

Gawn needs to calm his farm and stop smashing balls to the opposition goal side. Yes we know you are big and you win lots of hit outs, but just stop.

Thought Brayshaw was coming in to some form after 1/2 time

Also Lever showed a bit

Hibberd put his body on the line a few times and will be a sore boy tomorrow

Oscar wasn't to bad either

Absolutely agree. What no-one on tv mentioned was that it was slippery. One grab takes were difficult. Many packs. No-one on either side was soft

I can't agree with a lot of those calls Joeboy.  Jetta played his best game of the season.  So did Lever, Hunt and Brayshaw.  Hunt faded badly, but Brayshaw had a big second half and looked to be getting his touch and mojo back.  Weideman took four solid marks, laid five tackles and crashed packs all night.  He needs to get his [censored] together when kicking for goal, but overall his game was solid and he showed the work ethic and appetite for a contest that we want to see in a developing KPF.  Like Brayshaw, Oliver really kicked into gear in the second half.  It seems to be his pattern to rack up 20 or so disposals after half time, and he added to that a massive body slam tackle on Dusty Martin.  Can't ask for much more than that. 

I will give you ANB, Stretch and Garlett though.  They were horrible.

Don't think you watched the game. Jetta was excellent even after he was kicked in the ankle, which felled him--yet no free kick. Even commentators saw this one.

Christian Petracca, Kade Chandler, Shane McAdam and Tom Fullarton doing non-contact kicking and handball drills on the adjacent oval.  All moving freely at pace.  I didn’

Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
