Where the [censored] is Viney? Your a Captain ffs!

Viney is strangely quiet


They're being very physical on Max, jumping into him at every opportunity, knees and boots first.

    You're in fine form today, dazzle.  We're two quarters into a new season and you've already burst a few blood vessels.

    Lucky to be only 3 points down we couldn’t have played any worse, if goody can’t turn this around we are in trouble port are still at $2.95 just rediculous odds 


    Viney looks well underdone. Gawn looks cooked halfway into the first game. Petracca, Spargo and Hunt are struggling to get involved. 

    We’re missing too many kicks, including inside 50, and when we turn it over they have too much space and too much marking power (anyone who didn’t already appreciate how badly we need May should know by now). And we’re too slow (by foot but mainly with decision making) when trying to get it out of the backline. 

    The first 15 minutes looked excellent so if we get back to that faster, more direct football then we should be able to improve and regain the lead, but if we stay doing what we did that quarter then we will lose and lose poorly. 

    Preuss needs to come in to support max. Port are just getting into him, niggling him, even the young players are.

    Yes - even their first year players are mouthing off at him.

    [censored] pathetic Melbourne! Nothing has changed over the summer!

    We are so slow and have gone into survival mode.

    Way too quiet for too long. Lull periods are going to happen I get it, but this is the area that must improve. We seem to have to be bang on with contested ball all the time.

    how good is the fritter ,closest thing i have ever seen to bobby

    Seen this several times before during last season. Kick the for first three goals quickly then fall to pieces.

     

    Too little from too few. Thanks May for being an idiot and not out there. Fritter, all class and Corey Wagner a pleasant surprise. Hunt is hopeless. Weid is on the Weed.

    • 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.
