He started in the centre and had 1 possession to halftime I think.

He started on ball. At the opening bounce he was in the middle.

He did nothing the entire first half.

So he didn't get a touch at the opening bounce...you think he was in the midfield for the entire first half?

I reckon we started to get the mix right as the game went on.

Brayshaw is an integral part of that mix if we're going to be successful.

 

6. Clarrie - back yourself son and you will be elite as shown tonight 

5. May - awesome down back never looked in trouble 

4. Viney - set the tone in the first and was good throughout 

3. Lever - along with May controlled the backhalf although some strange decisions to punch when he could have marked but very good overall 

2. Trac - nearly set the game alight on several occasions and showed some real class at times

1. Weid/Jacko - loved their work together in bringing the ball to ground and second efforts at ground level

The response was in relation to the earlier post, which was wildly wrong and impugned the coaching group, not a comment on the efficacy of Brayshaw.

I agree with the sentiment of the earlier post.

I don't think the coaching group have handled him well at all.

I think we have had the mix in the midfield all wrong.

Tonight was better but as a group they can work a lot better yet.

There's a lot of premature love (and hope) for Jackson!

There's good reason for that 'Fanatique'...he's a beauty.

Yeah the sentiment was good, it just reeked of ignorance factually.


Unbelievable game by Oliver - it was everything we had been hoping for since his debut and shows that both he and Goody have finally understood what so many have said on DL and other places. That was the most elite game we have seen by anybody at this club for a long, long time.

Closely followed by Lever. Brayshaw gets the Encouragement Award. His last quarter was vintage and hopefully he can continue on from there.

Apologies to Lever. 
 

Salem was ok but not in my best.  He still didn’t use the footy to a huge advantage. 15 metre kicks are soft targets for a bloke with his talent. He can lift and show us what he is really capable of.

  • 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.

  • CASEY: Coburg

    The Casey Demons returned to their home ground which was once a graveyard for opposing teams but they managed to gift the four points on offer to Coburg with yet another of their trademark displays of inaccuracy in front of goals and some undisciplined football that earned the displeasure of the umpires late in the game. The home team was welcomed by a small crowd at Casey Fields and looked right at home as it dominated the first three quarters and led for all bar the last five minutes of the game. In the end, they came away with nothing, despite winning everywhere but on the scoreboard and the free kick count.

  • PREGAME: Rd 18 vs North Melbourne

    After four weeks on the road the Demons make their long awaited return to the MCG next Sunday to play in a classic late season dead rubber against the North Melbourne Kangaroos. Who comes in and who comes out?

  • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

    The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.
