We need to use handballing to create play. But often we handball around in a circle or handball to a player under pressure. Oliver and Viney in particular, are great at getting the footy but make dumb choices. 
 
1/2 time today 

Dees 186 possessions- 106 handballs. A lot to players standing still  

Tigers 165 possessions- 71 handballs. Yet their handball is running and creative. 

 

How did they get their first goal? Over use of stupid handball and then we [censored] it up. One, two and then move it on so at least if we give it up, which we will given our forward entries,  we give it up down the field.

Panic footy... breeds the same at the next link.

Oliver has to slow down a fraction, and deliver the ball properly.   And because he is so good at getting to the drop of ball,  and getting hands on it,  our other mids competing with him do the same; from Oli's lead.

We winning the footy in the middle,  but losing the war from there,  because of panic manic footy.

 

Its been starting with Oli's untidiness with ball use.  It appears like its all about him.

 

His carelessness with the ball, is IMO,  self centered,

  • 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.
