FFS that is one of the stupidest things I’ve ever heard. I’m just glad they didn’t kill the poor bastard.

i personally trust the football / fitness etc. staff to be doing the right thing by our players

Some decisions to play players who are injured have been bizzare. Misson already has a job secured elsewhere so is his performance for the next several months something that isnt important?

If he wasn’t carrying so much extra weight.. he may have been able to resurface quicker! 

Actually, if he is fat as everyone makes out, he should have floated!!

If Trac plays well this week, let’s try and drown him before every game.

If Trac plays well, let’s try and drown the whole team before every game...

All good.

I had a fair few bevies and got home to find one of my favorite players had nearly drowned (probably not even close to what actually happened but that's how I read it at the time.)

My post was purely emotional.

The club should do some Mongolian throat singing together to increase their lung capacity. ?

 

I don't know about lung capacity...  but it Would help with sleep-apnea.

Go one better and get this mob for their throat singing and old school fighting lyrics...

This is what the Adelaide power stance was missing ?


That last effort on the boundary line to win that contested ball and kick it forward was huge.

Please lord let him one day put it all together and fulfil his potential.

May be he should have a near death experience each week 

Maybe this pool training,  helps them to overcome some fears, as well.  

Forcing them out of their comfort zones.


Something needs to be done about that ridiculous high ball drop. A good player will learn and adapt

They asked Maxy about it on the radio after the game and said yeah I have never seen a medicine ball used on the MCG before, pointing out what was the pint. Then they joked about his height helping him because he'd have his head out of water. 

But then jokingly said maybe Petracca should do it again next week seeing as he played well today.

Apart from that horrible set shot for goal, I thought he was good today.

I was surprised to see he only had 11 disposals (along with only  2 tackles, 0 goals).   Obviously thats a very low output but he was very physical and had some big moments.  He certainly didn't play poorly, which you'd think he must have just looking at the stat count.

Still needs to lift big time though.

If/when he sheds some Kgs,  those number of contests,  and so disposals will increase.

  • 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.
