Neal-Bullen continues to be a chain killer.  Every period of good clean possession ends when he gets it.

It's either a fumble or a ridiculous attempt at a handball.

 

He’s doing ok. Hibberd and Vanders look to be battling. I hope they play Hore in the second half. Spargo also AWOL.

 

However, one big positive have been Langdon and Tomlinson, especially in their roles:

30 disposals and 11 marks between them roaming up the wings.  Absolutely what we've been crying out for.

Disposal is a little shaky at times but, again, that can be forgiven a little due to the time of the year and conditions. Great pick ups for the club.

    Yes some familiar Weid and Anb footy. 
     

    Langdon is the real deal.  Fritsch is ready to kick 4-5!
     

    Lockhart is a lock for round 1 imo.

    What happened to vanders says he was subbed off with injury on AFL Site

    The AFL website does that all the time.  Says they're injured, then two minutes later they're back on the field.  It's annoying.

    ANB's tank still strong, getting to a lot of contests

    more than ever, but he still has no polish and that hurts us as a team.  We are so light on for skilled players.

    If we're going to improve we can carry players with sub-par skills.

    What in gods name is that free for???

    That umpire was stolen by gypsies as a child. The gypsies realised he was no good and left him in the forest for the bears to raise.

    The bears rejected him and wouldn't even eat him. He had no proper upbringing and developed neither acceptable social skills nor the ability to interact with decent folk. The AFL saw his potential to be a field umpire where his background and skill set wouldn't be any sort of hindrance. 

    Here he is tonight making soft decisions leading to a Hawthorn goal. Should we expect anything different ??? Hell no.

    He’s off getting some WD 40 for rust.

     

    Langdon while good, his disposal by foot has been poor. Tomlinson has been good.

    Lockhart BOG for me. Has been stiff by these maggots.

    The game has been very sloppy though. Play like this against WC and we'll get slaughtered.

    Yea I’m not watching the game just reading updates on here and checking AFL Site, so there is nothing wrong with him

    AFL site saying Vanders injured. Update?

    Anyone think we rest Gawn and May for the second half?  Or do we give them another quarter?

    Maxy running laps must be done for the match

    Edited by sisso

    Maxxy was doing laps at ht , being rested for Jackson

    Disposal has been worse than Langdon, both getting to good positions and providing an outlet.

    Vanders hurt his foot. Kicked it into someone and saw him grab it straight away.

    • Sad 3

    It’s a pretty ordinary looking game. It’s a good physical hit out but I’m not seeing too much to get excited about in our style yet bar real endeavour. 


    Tomlinson missing targets but Langdon kicking over his shoulder. Thats [censored]. May trying to drill passes too low and intercepted.

    Didn't see him in the room cam. Hoping for the best.

    Th at half volley mark against him was red hot. Not paid then what was he supposed to do?

    • 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.
