    There’s a couple of hours of my life I’ll never get back. I’m glad I know they worked so hard off season as if I didn’t Id swear theyre playing exactly the same way and repeating Exactly the same mistakes. Boring footy. Nothing team. I’m glad I don’t have to watch that [censored] for 10 more weeks.

    Deja Vu! Non existent delivery into a non existent forward line 

    I don’t think it’s an ability issue so much as a structural issue.  I have lost confidence in Goodwin

    Did we learn nothing from the 2018 Prelim ?

    Pickett in his debut was our highest scorer.  Don't know if I should be excited or worried about that???

    5 debutants, jumped at the start and lost by 27 points over in Perth. I'll take it.

    Well it’s good to see we have improved on last season. FMD. 
     

    No spread when defending, bombing it into the f50, missing targets, missing gettable goals and basically playing like we don’t have anything to prove from last season. 
     

    I’m glad the season has been suspended because having to see this [censored] again for another season would be horrendous. 
     

    imo Goodwin has to go. I know it’s an early call but NOTHING has changed from last season.

    Yes   from the last game of 2018, we have learnt nothing about kicking to one of our players inside our forward 50

    Let’s face it, Hibberd, Oscar and Spargo should never play a senior game again.

    Oliver is way ahead of himself. He has become lazy.

    We have no forward line. Tom McDonald is nowhere.

    27 points flattered the [censored] out of us.

    Nothing has changed from last year and now we can't use injuries as an excuse. 

    Today was extremely concerning and very disappointing. 

    Goodwin is in big trouble.

    Pickett, Viney, Lockhart and Bedford were the positives..

    Where was our leaders? McDonald, Jetta, Melksham?

    Hibberd is finished, see ya. And im afraid to say, but Jetta is just about cooked.

    ANB and Spargo are dead set suburban footballers.

    That's the most disappointing thing isn't it, nothing seems to have improved.

    We were never going to win that game. Maybe had a chance if the game was played in Melbourne and game was full length. 

    i50 delivery has not changed but it was never going to in 1 preseason. What’s more worrying is the defensive 50 and two way running effort.

    • 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.
