Petty should be playing AFL footy instead of Oscar. I have seen enough of Oscar and im sorry but he is a spud.

Get games into him and start developing him while May and Lever are out.

Is Petty's body ready though???

    Hate calling our players spuds; they give their heart and soul for the jumper and may not be up to it but it is so disrespectful to talk about them like that.

    Is Oscar's? Bloke looks like the same now as what he did in his first year.

    I’d like to see him have a run in the team when he is 100% ready.  His debut last year was premature; his performance was diabolical.

    Ok maybe that is a bit harsh but he is a very ordinary AFL player. 

    He is up there with the likes of Zac Dawson, Josh Bootsma as one of the worst footballers i have ever seen.

    Honestly think calling him a spud was kinder than saying he’s a Dawson...

    Weid at about 80%. Playing like Petrarca - its almost falling for him to dominate but things just aren’t perfect.

    Great post. I’m getting sick of it. It’s a deadset cheap shot.

    Zac Dawson played 166 games and played according to the team gameplan. Rarely had a bag kicked on him.

    Not many players have that good a career. Only 10% ever play 150 games.

    Fair call. Im not an Oscar protector either, but Oscar wasn't super bad yesterday.

    I'd rather Petty i think if he develps he will be handy, but it depends how he used i guess.

    How do you find Tom Freeman @KC from Casey? Already taken 6 marks in the 1st half. Could he be a draft smokey come years end?

    Yeh he made 2 errors by not attacking the ball...

    Gawn turned it over a couple times in the last, one which also resulted in a big momentum goal for the Hawks... Are you going to drop him???

    Im not saying O Mac deserves a game, im saying some of the criticism is simple

    PS: sorry @KC from Casey keep up the good work

    Agree - a promising young player who is a bit hit or miss at the moment.

    Enough debate about Oscar. Not relevant here.

    I gather with 13+ disposals to the Weid for one goal he ain't standing in the goal square?

    • PREVIEW: Hawthorn

      Melbourne and Hawthorn who face off against each other this week have more in common than having once almost merged and about to wear a blue jumper with a red v triangle and an embroidered picture of a bird on the front. They also share the MCG as their main home ground, their supporters are associated with the leafy suburbs of Melbourne and in recent times, James Frawley graced the colours of both teams. Even more recently, both have bounced back from disastrous five game losing streaks to start off a season. Of course, the Hawks turned their bounce into a successful leap from the bottom of the ladder into a finals appearance, making it to the semifinals in 2024 and this year, they’re riding high in third place on the AFL table. The Demons are just three games into their 2025 bounce back, and are yet to climb their way out of the bottom four although they are sitting a game and percentage out of the top eight. However, with the current sportsbet odds of $3.90 to win this week’s encounter, it seems a forlorn hope that their upward progression will continue much longer.

    • REPORT: West Coast

      On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

    • 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.
