Brayshaw gets a load of football... but how many rushed, pointless bomb-around-the-body kicks has he done tonight that have been to no advantage or straight turnovers. 

Im getting sick of seeing it... I understand the hundred handballs are tough with Tiger pressure but what about wide spread instead of 0.5m handballs to stationary teammates...

The fumbles tonight as well. FMD, what happened to “getting back to the basics.”  Watched the half time drill of picking it up off the deck, translated to nothing during game time.

Goodwin needs to go for the win here.

Put Mcdonald forward.

Here's a stat...first four goals from 8 inside 50's. We have scored one goal from the next 23.

No one at CHF or higher to take the relief contested mark!!   Playing Weid is like playing a man down.  T-mac experiment over until he gets some resemblence of his 2018 form back.  Running at about 40% of that output/quality right now.

Time to bring Keilty in

The tigers have been garbage, but at least they kick goals more than once in a million forward 50 entries. We're lucky that we are not 100 points down, we would be against a side playing well. TMac is so horribly out of form, he can't take a trick anywhere on the ground. That moment where he tried to run off his opponent was hard to watch.

 it is winnable but given the poor way we have been playing it would really take some effort to get up from here. just no one up forward standing up, the tigers are tearing us apart from defence and our players cannot take a mark cannot chase and cannot tackle. I think weidermans kick to jones sums up our night. even when there is no pressure our players cannot do it right.

Stretch has been really good.  13 touches, 7 of them contested, and he's generally made good decisions.  Hopefully, like others have mentioned, he gets a good run at it from here.

...and Viney burned him that Q...

Cost us 2 goals the skipper.

Needs to learn what team is...

That bloke wearing number 31 should go and hide in the stands. Has none of Barassi's courage AT ALL. The softest player I have seen in many years. You can throw the Weid in that mix. I said earlier we need our best players playing at their best and the others putting in honest efforts.  Some are but boy are some just going through the motions.

Time for these guys to stand up in last quarter. PLEASE.

Fritz is playing like he doesn't want to have the ball in his hands. He hands it off straight away to whoever is near him. Doesn't matter if it's a Melbourne player under pressure or a Richmond player or the ground. He doesn't take ownership of the ball and look for the best option. What's going on with that?

Send him forward

Hogan got more touches and score in one game then May and Weiderman combined over the last 3 weeks.

Time to mix it up, TMac back up fwd, won’t win playing the way we’re going.

Put Weide deep...  bring jSmith up to the flank or wing...  to play between the Wing and the F50.

We need to mark the ball around the middle to calm us down from overusing it.

There is a serious lack of belief out there. We all know our players can hit a Target and can pick up the ball. We watched it for a season.

I can see the Tiggers blowing this out in the last.

Shame as they dont deserve a percentage booster.

Our boys have chased tail all night.

With not much left in the legs, this could get very ugly in the last and the Toiges can smell blood.

Basic skill errors and no brains has killed us all night.

It is sad how quickly we have become a rabble drinking our own bathwater.?

HOW MANY [censored] TIMES ARE WE GOING TO KICK IT TO A RICHMOND DEFENDER?!?!?!?!?!

Embrace that anger WB, welcome to the dark side.

To answer your question though, ah for [censored] sake!

McDonald has to go forward this quarter... no point trying to reduce a loss

McDonald can't catch the ball in defence what makes you think he can do it forward...

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
