    Agree. No ability to judge the footy. Needs to go back to Casey. 

    Probably needs delisting to tell the truth. His run and pace is exciting to watch,  until he butchers the disposal or fumbles when receiving the footy. Also goes missing during huge swathes of the game. [censored] it's depressing.

    No they are both just average players with one attribute and that is agression/hardness.

    Jones has been a good servant, Finished now. Viney is not a Captain. Captain Chaos for mine.

    Saw vision of Jones on bench he had the look of a player who knows his time is up

    WTF? He hasn't had 3 good quarters for the season, let alone this game. Frost had been the beneficiary of the omac hate on here, but seriously the guy has no football IQ, looks lost whenever the ball is not directly in front of him, and turns out over horribly at least a few times a game. All while just doing a specific job, not playing a zone like the rest of the defenders. 

     

    No idea.  

    When a team is so slow, Frost stands out like a beacon.  His tackling has gone up a notch too.

     

    My only criticism of him is to run and take them on more.

    He has speed and strength but no idea really how to use it. He is consistently out maneuvered or pushed under the ball when in good positions. When he does run with it he'll either fluff the kick or send it to an out number then stand there watching as it comes back over his head. He's an athlete not a true footballer

    He is not a defender.

    Should be played on a wing with his height and 

    speed. When Lever and May return Goodwin might actually work it out.

    I thought they should have moved him forward last night onto Grimes or vlauston, told him to stay with them and only run forward if we can get it over the top. He will stick with a man, but his inability to read the play is a big issue, if he's taken to the ball he's then half a chance, but that's a much bigger issue in defence

    Thought Stretch was OK. His kicking was better than most.

    He & Hunt on opposite wings. I hope when May/Lever r back Goodwin does it. I've thought they should be wingers 4 ages. Also Fritter must be a forward not a defender.

    Love the idea of Hunt in principle but he is not a  natural footballer.

    Fritta is a forward, once again re-iterated.

    No...  I mean we've got to import some players at the draft this year,  and reboot for better play  in 2020.

    Nothing to do with grand finals, if that's what you meant.

    Wing or Half-forward...  I think Wing, and he can help our inside F50's.

    Jones needs to be put either forward pocket or back pocket, or back in the middle, his pace and ball skills are being found out on wing. He’s been an absolute champion of the club and needs to be able to go out on his terms!

    Did he play wing against Richmond? He certainly played large periods of the game in the backline and spent some time as the starting 4 at centre bounces, but I don't recall him being used on the wing. Thankfully. My preferred spot for him right now is as a small forward with occasional runs on the ball.

    • 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.
