Not sure why my intial thread got taken down but, so I'll keep this simple. 

Probably one of the worst AFL players going around and its time we see the last of this potato.

With May coming in next week i expect tonight we'll be the last we'll see him in a red and blue jumper.. ever!

    I don’t like player bashing but he is the definition of a liability.

    Some of his defensive efforts on Jenkins were woeful.

    Yeah I agree. Nothing personally against him, probably a great guy but just not cut out for a key defensive position.

    Had 2.3 kicked on him, yes that was the difference, NOT.

    I have been an Oscar supporter god knows why ,, probably because of his whipping boy status. but tonight showed he is not up to it. I suspect the club had always known hence the lever and may recruitments

    2 1/2 years of poor substandard footy 

    2017 he was “developing” and we had to be patient 

    2018 he was hidden by our excellent form

    2019 slow weak turnover beaten

    Seriously??? And play who? May was coming back from injury, lever, hore and petty were out. Plus at least he didn't turn the ball over every time he had it out of defence. He was no where near the reason we lost tonight, 1.8 in the last and stupid decisions going forward were

    He can take JKH and Wagner with him too.

    And Goodwin should join him.

    Zero passion for the backbone of the club, us fans. Full of lame excuses but won’t get a bloody kicking coach!

    Honestly, I don't see the point in throwing more trash at him, he has been in only because of injuries to both of our first-choice key defenders. When May and Lever return, and with the development of Hore, return of Smith, and even the impending prospect of Petty overtaking him, Oscar's time and role at the club is in a twilight.

    Railing against his presence in our best 22 is about as sensible as railing against the continuing of season 2019. We know the situation, we know it will end, we know there will be a new dawn.

    Might as well as least let some peace flow in the meantime. Don't cling to bitterness.

    Ryan Ferguson no 2

    Ferguson was WAY better

    He is contracted until the end of season 2020 so unless a trade partner can be found he will be around next season.

    At this point I'd almost throw him forward in the vfl and see how he goes. He played some junior footy forward so it wouldn't hurt to see if he can help our forward depth in 2020. We can rule out the backline for him as a suitable place to play.

    CLEARLY didnt not watch tonights game. he is a spud and will be making his way out for Steven May.

    There is nothing tonight that justify any sense of support whatsoever. He was pathetic.

    If May and Lever can stay on the park when they return, O Mac played his last game for the MFC tonight.

    Does no one else see that this is the obvious solution?

    • REPORT: Adelaide

      The atmosphere at the Melbourne Football Club at the beginning of the season was aspirational following an injury-plagued year in 2024. Coach Simon Goodwin had lofty expectations with the return of key players, the anticipated improvement from a maturing group with a few years of experience under their belts, and some exceptional young talent also joining the ranks. All of that went by the wayside as the team failed to click into action early on. It rallied briefly with a new strategy but has fallen again with five more  consecutive defeats.

    • CASEY: Coburg

      The Casey Demons returned to their home ground which was once a graveyard for opposing teams but they managed to gift the four points on offer to Coburg with yet another of their trademark displays of inaccuracy in front of goals and some undisciplined football that earned the displeasure of the umpires late in the game. The home team was welcomed by a small crowd at Casey Fields and looked right at home as it dominated the first three quarters and led for all bar the last five minutes of the game. In the end, they came away with nothing, despite winning everywhere but on the scoreboard and the free kick count.

    • PREGAME: Rd 18 vs North Melbourne

      After four weeks on the road the Demons make their long awaited return to the MCG next Sunday to play in a classic late season dead rubber against the North Melbourne Kangaroos. Who comes in and who comes out?

    • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

      The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.
