Not bad Joeboy even tough you were kind to most.

Tbh there has to have been more to the Dunkley and Spargo ins. I wonder if Hunt and Baker had broken team rules? It's either that or blatant tanking.

 

What about Melksham?

I would say it was Last Chance Saloon tonight for most of the inclusions: Stretch, ANB, Spargo JKH, Wagner - the latter two put the effort in, but aren’t quite up to it.

 

melksham kick goals neita!

Brayshaw 24 disposals, 8 tackles. Hope I am around when he comes out of the spiral

Chandler: 9 tackles indicates effort !!

Goalkicking : shizenhousen at best


We should sack all the assistant coaches, mentors , managers etc , that hang around Goodwin and the MFC. Recently reported we should get B.Hill if we can fit him in the salary cap, yet we are suppose to be offering N.Jones a 260 K one year contract --- he is a dinosaur.

Trade J.Viney for O.Wines buying doing that we can get rid of his old man .......... savings. Trade A.Brayshaw  for Langdon and B.Hill. Use pick 2 to get B.Kemp or N.Anderson. Kemp reminds me of P.Cripps. Delist Lewis, Jones, ANB, JKH,T .Smith, Keilty, C.Wagner , the other Wagner and possibly Hibberd. Like to see us get Richardson as a assistant coach, he deserves a second chance. Pick  a captain who has come from another club and who has heart. Make O.Mac a CHF or FF or fwd pocket player in the reserves until he proves himself or else delist 2020.

I think JB was referring to Gus's 50% efficiency & 4 turnovers.....so 12 effective disposals as a midfield. I'm with JB.

  • PREVIEW: North Melbourne

    Can you believe it? After a long period of years over which Melbourne has dominated in matches against North Melbourne, the Demons are looking down the barrel at two defeats at the hands of the Kangaroos in the same season. And if that eventuates, it will come hot on the heels of an identical result against the Gold Coast Suns. How have the might fallen? There is a slight difference in that North Melbourne are not yet in the same place as Gold Coast. Like Melbourne, they are currently situated in the lower half of the ladder and though they did achieve a significant upset when the teams met earlier in the season, their subsequent form has been equally unimpressive and inconsistent.

  • 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.
