    Take responsible and kick the [censored] goal weideman!

    Turnover ... goal to the filth !

    The skill level is embarrassing, give the MMD game to a decent team, we don’t deserve it

     

    We were one game away from a Grand Final last year.

    From that to this in less than a year.

     


    McDonald can [censored] off with hos brother too. I am done with him too

    Watson just referred to the skills (or absence thereof) of Melbourne to be the worst he's seen this season.

    He said that after Hannan just dropped a chest mark.

    It's pitiful.

     

    I hate handballs to nowhere.


    I'm beginning to think that Goodwin isn't the right coach going forward. And by going forward I mean right now.

    Hannan still rusty. 

    Hannan and Lever both got into the team,  without any displayed form,  or condition.   Both not ready for AFL.

    Wow McDonald doesn't look like getting near it. Stands under the ball, can't take a contested mark and always seems to be in no man's land.

    Can we please draft someone who can snap more than 20 metres. 

    How dare you criticise Lord spargo ! 

    This list is ok. I worry about the coaching. I know that's an ongoing theme, and the coaches don't tell Garlett to pass it off from 30m out (etc etc) we just have NO SYSTEM going forward. Don't talk to me about connection. This is about structures and habits.

    Skills are absolutely killing us. Intent is good - we wrestled control of the ball in that quarter but gee wizz. Hannan dropping it was just one example but was pretty typical of how we’re going.

    Both Lever and May are only 1% off and looking better than I was expecting. Our defence as a whole looks reasonably well coordinated, they were just hammered. Reckon they’re why we’re closer than we might be.

    I haven’t given up yet. I think we could steady and claw the lead back. Fingers crossed.

    Totally devoid of skill. 

    Cant kick or handball. 

    Otherwise ok.

     

    Melbourne needlessly rushing, loopy handballs over the top rather than kicks down the line to leading players.  Selling teammates into trouble, handballs to stationary players.

    F50 entries have been woeful once again, but I haven’t seen anything resembling forward structure and leading patterns.  

    Harmes from the boundary seems to be the only player with any kind of composure in traffic.  Thank god for Marty Hore.

    McDonald looks completely out of sorts, and has benefitted Pies more than his own team so far.

    • 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.
