Good to see we have learned how to stem a team getting a run-on. FMD. Talk about resting on our laurels over the off-season.

 

Sack Troy Chaplin. Single handedly turned our backline into a shambles

    The depressing part is there very little at Casey. Seriously who can contemplate a year of watching O Mac and Frost.

     

    We're a fraudulent side. We gather inside 50s by putting more numbers at the source and forward of ball. Fraud. The numbers are irrelevant. We leave 4 oppo forwards goalside ALL GAME

     

     

    What is it with un-pressured errors?

    Simple, uncontested marks dropped.

    Un-pressured kicks going sort-of near a target but never hitting.

    And we are getting slaughtered at the ball drop, which was our strength.

    Melksham, Kolodjashnij, Omac, Hibberd having absolute howlers.

    Totally agree with that observation.

    No composure.
    No class.

     

    Whats happened to Hibb??? Seems to have lost half a yard?

    Two turnig points: ANB dropping an uncontested mark. And Captain Viney passing up having a shot on goal to stem momentum.

    Frost and O Mcdonald are not AFL footballers.

    And what about Petracca's missed marks and non contests... when he stands back waiting for the ball to come to him,  while his opponent is in getting it, and gone>>>


    Frost can’t even take a chest mark. Kinda garden stuff

    And gained half a tonne

    At least The Ashes is on this year


    Frost again so predictable

    • The Clayton Oliver Thread

      Melbourne have held talks with Clayton Oliver and they’ve laid out where he fits in under Steve King’s vision and been frank about expectations. Oliver is still under contract for five years, but the door is open if he wants to explore his options elsewhere.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Essendon

      It’s Pink Lady night at Princes Park — a vibey Friday evening setting for a high-stakes clash between second-placed Melbourne and eleventh-placed Essendon. The wind-sheltered IKON Park, a favourite ground of the Demon players, promises flair, fire and a touch of pink. Melbourne has never lost a home-and-away game here, though the ghosts of two straight-sets finals exits in 2023 still linger.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 1 Steven May 

      The premiership defender has shown signs of wear and tear due to age, and his 2025 season was inconsistent, ending poorly with a suspension and a noticeable decline in performance. The Demons are eager to integrate younger players onto their list and have indicated that they may not be able to guarantee him senior games next season, in what would be the final year of his contract.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 2 Jacob van Rooyen

      The young key tall failed to make progress during the season, with a decline in his goal kicking output. His secondary role as a backup ruckman, which may have hindered his ability to further develop his game, and he was also impacted by the team's poor forward connection. It will be interesting to observe his performance under a new coaching regime.
