The slightest inkling of opponent pressure and Brayshaw becomes a huge liability. He and Oliver come from the same School For Lazy Kickers.

Thank god

Very lazy at times and just doesn't have the ugency or fitness level to play at this level for more than a quarter or so.  Has cost us so many goals over the journey.

Has his moments but too few and far between and murders too many of his non-pressured disposals by foot.

Trade at year's end while there's still value for mine.  We need an inside / outside mid with class who can finish.

Don't know why he's rated on here so highly. Mentioned in 2018 that he was extremely lucky to come third and got hounded down by people on here

Boy did we need that.

Great vision from Trac and then nice skills from Jackson as well.  Good stuff.


If they can play like this.  What happened in the other effin games!!

Jackson good skills

Fabulous stuff from the young fella all day.  Shows his inexperience at times but to be expected and no issue there.

Looks the goods!

 

Does Vanders ever hit a target?

I've been a fan, but he has missed pretty much every target and even dropped a few marks.  Might be time to send a rocket up him by dropping him from the side.


I love AVB, but gee his kicking has been terrible today.

Back on the hussle there

Again under no pressure Vanders kicks to a Hawk.

AVB’s disposal also terrible today. 

I like him for the toughness he brings to the side, but he suits the chaos ball well - better at bombing it to a contest than trying to hit someone lace out.  He rarely does it.

Short quarters. The players should be not be fatigued, Ling.

why would Fritta play on from there?  Just dumb.  Need to pull him up on that in the review.   Solid field position then has to kick back from whence it came.

But he is getting to where the ball is

    The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.

  • 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.
