T MAC is a shadow of himself. Move May into forward like 

 

I don’t think we are out of this, we’ve improved this quarter around the ball, just need to get smarter with disposal in our forward half

    Weideman not a natural footballer 

    needs to spend the start of each season at Casey and continue to learn there’s more to it than mark and kick

    Key forwards aren’t in the team to tackle but his pressure is woeful.

    Petracca. The momentum killer.

    Season over

    Serious finals aspirations are... I'd say

    Petracca stuffed it again. How can anyone be satisfied with what he’s producing? 


    We just do not play good in the heat or the wet.

    Just wait till the conditions are perfect, we will blitz.

    Petracca is horrible. Needs to go to the VFL and learn to take a mark. 

    Oliver is the only player I want near the ball. The rest are VFL standard. 

    Amazingly we are not out of this.

    Need to outscore them by 2 goals in the third and see what we can do in Q4.

    Our lack of scoring power is seriously worrying

    oliver is a freak

    brayshaw, viney and harmes are honest battlers

    we have no forward structure and no way of moving the ball forward other than bombing it long

    petracca, anb and hunt worst on

    Tell you what, if this is the only margin at the end, I’ll take it as moral victory

    Fritsch has been disappointing so far this season too. I was expecting him to take another step forward this year and become a quality player, but he’s struggling.

    Oliver really digging in and trying to carry the team. He’s a star.

    Good end to the half. Got on top. 

    Oliver amazing. KK, Frost, May, Brayshaw all solid. Viney in and out. Petracca just terrible. Gawn uninspiring and seemingly not 100%. Zero forward coherency. ANB useless. Weeds not ideal for the weather. Jones is absolutely cooked.

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.

    • PREVIEW: North Melbourne

      Can you believe it? After a long period of years over which Melbourne has dominated in matches against North Melbourne, the Demons are looking down the barrel at two defeats at the hands of the Kangaroos in the same season. And if that eventuates, it will come hot on the heels of an identical result against the Gold Coast Suns. How have the might fallen? There is a slight difference in that North Melbourne are not yet in the same place as Gold Coast. Like Melbourne, they are currently situated in the lower half of the ladder and though they did achieve a significant upset when the teams met earlier in the season, their subsequent form has been equally unimpressive and inconsistent.

    • 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.
