I’m so mad to even really bother. 

Out Spargo

in Garlett 

whatever. 

 

Im seriously considering not going. That was just appalling to watch.

Is it really gonna matter? Richmonds speed will tear us apart.

Their mosquito squad is gonna be at half mast already.

Out: Finals

In: Languishing in the bottom half of the ladder.

What a f'ing waste of a season.

 

in: first pick of the draft

out: optimism 

?


 

Fraudsters!


Well, let's see how they go tonight.

One thing in our favour for the ANZAC Eve game, quite a few of our players will have fresh legs.

Having said that, clearly Spargo and Corey Wagner are eminently replaceable, with the obvious in being Garlett, and I guess Stretch gets another run at AFL, as much as the very thought will have a few peopl tearing their hair out.

Out Wagner's ,hore , Spargo and all vfl standard players. Do we have any AFL standard to come in ?

I’m happy to play short

Tbf, the one I will say is Stretch. I know he’s not the saviour, but he’s someone who can provide us what we don’t have, he can run both ways on a wing.

I take it we have not traded this away yet.

Not many options. No point rushing May or Lever this season. 

NO point player lever at all till next year

Tmac needs to join his brother. His best effort was going through the banner. He must be injured so do not play him.

Can we forfeit next week and drop the whole team to Casey? Might be better than putting up with soulless efforts.

I’d drop Spargo who has no idea what he’s doing out there defensively. 

I’d also pretend to “rest” at least one of Hibberd, Jones and TMac.

Agree on Spargo, should be dropped. 

 

I thought Hore was alright and the Wagner family were competitive.

At least this loss cannot be blamed on Oscar.

The indecision delivering the ball into the fwd line  does not give Weids,TMAc any chance I think TMAc is injured becasue he is not running like he can.

Jeets was good today. Woried about Hibberds ability to \compete 1 on 1.

Charlie Spargo has to learn to make good decisions i.e When there are 4 or 5 Melbourne blokes , WHY KICK IT TO a CONTEST !!!!!!

Fritsch , Brayshaw, Gawn Good  , Preuss & Petracca Good first half.

Probably the worst I have seen the team play for 3 years.  The loss to WC in Prelim Final showed ALL sides how to play Melbourne.

How come Ratten got away from us . He would be worth more than what we are paying May.

Out - Finals

In - Top 3 pick

Play the kids

  • POSTGAME: West Coast

    Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.

  • GAMEDAY: West Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons have a chance to notch up their third consecutive win — something they haven’t done since Round 5, 2024. But to do it, they’ll need to exorcise the Demons of last year’s disastrous trip out West. Can the Dees continue their momentum, right the wrongs of that fateful clash, and take another step up the ladder on the road to redemption?

  • FEATURE: 1925

    A hundred years ago today, on 2 May 1925, Melbourne kicked off the new season with a 47 point victory over St Kilda to take top place on the VFL ladder after the opening round of the new season.  Top place was a relatively unknown position for the team then known as the “Fuchsias.” They had finished last in 1923 and rose by only one place in the following year although the final home and away round heralded a promise of things to come when they surprised the eventual premiers Essendon. That victory set the stage for more improvement and it came rapidly. In this series, I will tell the story of how the 1925 season unfolded for the Melbourne Football Club and how it made the VFL finals for the first time in a decade on the way to the ultimate triumph a year later.
