    Viney - tom mitchell who

    Jones - the quiet achiever

    T.McDonald - hero we needed

    Melksham - a clutch player

    Brayshaw - quiet but good

    Spargo - same as above

    Weideman - more to come (Same as last week)

    Petracca - couldn't be stopped

    Neal-Bullen - very quiet game 

    Gawn - game of moments

    Hannan - competed for everything

    vandenBerg - kicking was poor

    Harmes - great three quarters

    Salem - best kick alive

    Fritsch - brave and ambitious

    Frost - won his battle 

    Hibberd - quick and clean

    Jetta - never gets beaten

    Lewis - safe and tough (he learned what free kick hawthorn is)

    O.McDonald - Tough and composed

    Oliver - proper [censored] head

    Tyson - looked very sore (big last qtr but)

    Just wanted to say i think everybody competed tonight. It's all that you can ask for really. Hannan had 6 touches but i think he flew for 5 or 6 marks and created a contest every time. Same as Tyson, he may not be quick or as clean as our other mids but he chased everything and did what he could.

    Then you and I are in a minority.  You can add Mitch Duncan and Josh Caddy while you are at it.

    Breust is only ever icing on the cake.  In a dominant team, he will kick 4.  MFC supporters and many others have been sucked into his actual individual brilliance.  This guy would have done zilch if he was at Melbourne for most of this decade.

    Go to any hot hard final that Hawthorn has played in, and he has done nothing other than the odd 'joe the goose' over the top.

    Come on Spargo 2 involvements. Try 7

    Mate, I gave Spargo the glass-half-full treatment.

     

    If I was brutally honest, the 3 words he would have got from me was "Lucky to Play"

    For a glass-jaw like you, just accept the '2 important contributions'.

    Tyson is a whipping boy but is needed in the clinches.

    Tyson has to 'know his limitations', and sometimes doesn't.

    Unlike Vanders, he is so easy to tackle.  Hence, Tyson shouldn't take the tackler on.  Tyson is also treacle.  Lewis might actually have him for pace.  Hence (II) Tyson's radar/antennae for footy awareness must be on-song.

    Not bad JB. Agree with most.

    Tyson was good in the last. Lucky for him or else he might have gone out.

    Melk sat on Sicily according to Goody in the presser so whilst he was quite he did his job as Sicily didn't hurt us.

    Fritter made a few bad errors but jeez he has good hands and reads the ball beautifully. Great move putting him down back. 

    Omac - aka Dr Cool - played a super committed game. Got pole axed big time at one point in the second q and wobbled up to fight another contest. Ahe is a really nice kick. Fritter, Omac, Salem, Hibberd and Jetts are all good reliable kicks which is super important coming out from our back half. 

    The back six and maxy saved us in the second quarter with their fantastic desperation. 

    I nearly considered putting Melksham in my votes for his performance because he substantially diminished Sicily's influence. I thought he played a super, selfless game. The two goals in the last were icing on the cake (unless you're a channel Seven commentator in which case, it's "cream on the cake".)

    and he should get some math tutoring

    I will consult with my English tutor about the non-pluralisation of the word "math" and starting sentences with the lower-case conjunction that is "and".

    Stay tuned.

    Fritch and Tyson.  1 week later, Fritch is dropped and Tyson conceded he was "nervous" about his selection.

     

     

    Your optometrist only sells rose-colored devices.

    I was referring to your comments about Spargo which were way off the mark. But I doubt you will listen.

    • REPORT: Adelaide

      The atmosphere at the Melbourne Football Club at the beginning of the season was aspirational following an injury-plagued year in 2024. Coach Simon Goodwin had lofty expectations with the return of key players, the anticipated improvement from a maturing group with a few years of experience under their belts, and some exceptional young talent also joining the ranks. All of that went by the wayside as the team failed to click into action early on. It rallied briefly with a new strategy but has fallen again with five more  consecutive defeats.

    • CASEY: Coburg

      The Casey Demons returned to their home ground which was once a graveyard for opposing teams but they managed to gift the four points on offer to Coburg with yet another of their trademark displays of inaccuracy in front of goals and some undisciplined football that earned the displeasure of the umpires late in the game. The home team was welcomed by a small crowd at Casey Fields and looked right at home as it dominated the first three quarters and led for all bar the last five minutes of the game. In the end, they came away with nothing, despite winning everywhere but on the scoreboard and the free kick count.

    • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

      The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.
