Can we reset at 1/2a come with purpose and a plan.

viney not inspiring in his walk off interview.  

‘Maybe come and play man on man. We win the 50/50 contests when we do.

He’s being played out of position.

He needs to be played as a forward or on a wing, not in the backline.

He has lost confidence Clint. He played down there last season and was a much better player. 

Season is done, cant believe it.

Chaplin at least needs to go.

 

Not sure it’s the backline that’s our biggest problem. How many Saints players have we hit with our i50 entries? Feels like 2012 watching some of that junk.


Spargo is a complete waste of space. Anyone who thinks he can play better than Jeffy is kidding themselves including our coach. Tom Mc is doing nothing down forward. Move him back FFS.

Troy ChAplin needs to be held to account. Our backline has gone backwards since he took over from Rawlings. How is this guy getting paid?

Chaplin the [censored] spud, get him out of the club.

Do our players just not know when to run forward and when to push back to defend??

Exactly what the Saints are doing to perfection. They understand their gameplan. We don't

 

Four goals in a half against St Kilda on our 'home ground' in perfect conditions.

Still no system going inside 50.   Too many dumb players, and coaches.

No OMac, no Melbourne. I blame the haters. 


The most putrid thing about this club is the lack of learning. We play the same game on repeat every week. The opposition simply doesn't matter. We have a hell of a lot of dumb at our club

Spargo is a primary schoolboy

Petracca is a prima Donna

Melksham is useless

McDonald is unsighted

Weideman is hopeless 

The Wagners are amateurs

Jetta and Hibberd are liabilities 

Lewis is dumb

In their defense, 3 of the expected first picked back 6 currently aren't playing.

would make no difference

This is everything going wrong that you could have expected. 

Terrible kicking going inside 50, marking forwards who can’t take a mark and no crumbers when it hits the deck. 

They’re spreading the ground wide, using the wings and overlap run off half back, and our zone is breaking down completely. 

Neither Jones nor Lewis are suited to the wing but despite that they’re there and they’re giving us nothing. 

And we can’t stop them scoring when they go inside. 

So far, it looks like last week we benefited from the smaller SCG more so than we improved or fixed anything. 

Oh, and Hibberd is a shadow of his former self and makes more mistakes than anyone except maybe Spargo. 


Petracca misses from 20 out straight in front dry day. Totally unacceptable.

Harmes misses 2 passes and then Spargo does same and Saints kick 3 goals. 

What do these guys do at training, because they can’t kick a footy?

I'm going to say it again. The issue is our inability to hit targets in the forward 50. This game is being played in our forward half. We get entry after entry after entry until eventually the saints manage to run it out and get out the back of our zone, then they can run into an uncontested goal. If we were hitting targets in our 50 they would never get the chance to rebound like that and the threat of us scoring would force them to be more accountable and not break early into space.

I’m at the game and can not believe how slow Sam Weiderman is. Don’t think I have sighted Tom Mac. I think the umpiring has been pathetic. I haven’t understood most of the decisions.

I’m here too Jane.  The bar is the place to be atm

They’re ordinary; we are worse

12 years of being atrocious, one good year last year, now back to being ordinary 

Most frustrating side to support 


Our coaching staff definitely didnt watch the St Kilda Hawthorn game last week.  Anyone with a brain could see how the Saints played and how to counter it.

We had better have a big 2nd half cos that was pathetic.

Time to get Fritsch out of defence. Experiment is failing

On the wing to replace Old Man Lewis.  Salem on the other to replace Chunk.

Why are we playing 2 old men on both wings??  Death wish Goody?????????????

  • 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.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: #3 Christian Salem   

    Salem proved to be a valuable contributor as a reliable and solid one-on-one medium-sized defender in what was undoubtedly his most impressive season since the premiership year. He remains a highly capable rebounding option for the Demons as he approaches his 200th game at the club.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    Following an injury-interrupted start to the season, McVee struggled to maintain the standard he established in 2025 as he pursued an expanded role within the team structure. He remained a firm fan favourite and the club had hoped to negotiate a new contract with the former rookie selection from Western Australia, whose partner, Lily Johnson, plays for Melbourne's AFLW side. Those hopes were dashed when he expressed his desire to return to his home state and play for Fremantle. Like all players who have worn the red and blue and are leaving this year, we wish him well in the future.
