Spargo can't kick & Hibbert just wants to bang it long & high. Nothing has changed from last season. Still a rabble.

Here's hoping he can drill one into Spargo's melon.

Might knock some sense into Charlie, and Hibbo would finally have hit a target!

Players look too hot and bothered. Someone please give them some silk fans.

...and a someone to peel their grapes ?

Just disappointing - but we are still in the game - so hoping for a better second half.

 

we have a game plan that is a an absolute disaster. they get the ball and have free players all over the ground, they have heaps more uncontested possessions. chip it into their forward line and kick goals. When we get the ball they cover our players and win the ball back, spread away kick to free players. Oliver's example of how not to chase sums up many of these players attitude tonight. At times i have seen our players turn away from the eagle player with the ball to cover their own man instead of putting pressure on the man with the ball. our players are too far away from their man to put them under pressure even if they fumble.

Viney and Pickett are the only two players that have turned up to play.

 

 

Stop watching and go to Dan Murphy’s urgently. Apparently there is a run on booze ATM and beer sure to go the way of dunny paper.

Very lazy. Saw a shot of Oliver casually jogging after an eagles player like we were 100 points up. 
 

Players still don’t get it. FMD.

The sooner Hibberd retires, the better off our backline will be. He never covers his man properly and his run and long bombs are more damaging to us than our opposition. He must be the least effective kick in the entire league. A big fall from his All Australian level a few years ago. Get Rivers in to replace him and be done with it.

2020 over before it started, COVID19 or not!

They’d actually be doing me a favour if they ran out.

Well, that’s pretty much how we’re playing.

That's not the game plan, that's the work rate. Or lack of.

Yep, that one is not Goodwin's fault.

However if he can't get them to play for him, then he is for more trouble and heat than he already is (or should be)

I’ve been a fan of Hibberd for a long time but what is his kicking efficiency today? Awful, and poor decisions as well. 

He’s not alone though, I’d like one of the tasks (call it homework) of the players to be to do some simple maths. Like, “what are the odds of player A winning the contest against 2/3 opponents?”

Frittas going to have to get a lot better delivery if he’s going to take out Maxy’s Coleman prediction. 


We will never win a premiership under Goodwin. I said. 

Jesus Brayshaw is a massive disappointment. 

Id easily be happy if we used him as a trade option come end of year.

Brayshaw has to do a lot to win me over. 
 

slow, awful kick, doesn’t run hard defensively, doesn’t kick goals. 

Lol right on que

It would be nice if we kicked it to our own players when going inside 50. 

It would be nice if we had player’s in the 50 to kick to who aren’t outnumbered!


We obviously still haven’t fixed the issues about kicking into fwd50. Maybe we will have the whole year to work on that.

    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.
