Besides Ryan and Kelly, anyone else think that looked more like rugby? Great win WCE. Dees, Giants, Saints choking it up

    Extraordinarily poor loss by St Kilda.

    Were gifted the win at the selection table with all those West Coast outs, AND McGovern pulling a hammy before half time.

    St Kilda, Essendon and Melbourne kind of remind me of each other.

    Clean players that can kick and a ruck that hits the ball to dangerous spots, that was the difference

    Great pressure goal by Kennedy in the last quarter. Can't help but like him. Honest no bull****e old fashioned full forward- should get more accolades than he does.

    Fantastic result for our #Bradbury2020 plan. If Saints lose to GWS after we beat them then we’ll take their spot.

    Yes i don’t understand why Max can’t play the same way. Can’t these guys work out set plays during the week. 
    I don’t understand Training at all anymore,  so much theory now.

    Credit where credit is due. The resilience and work ethic of the eagles is something MFC must learn and develop ge I admire them. With so  many injuries and lose McGovern early headed by the saints and they fight back. That is the culture I want to see at Melbourne.

    Nic Nat threatens to take the ball and kick it.

    Makes it much harder to predict and defend. Gives their mids just that little more space

    Gawn in the ruck tends to be traditional and predictable.

    Jackson rucks Nic Nat style so fingers crossed

    A question.

    If we were missing the equivalent players that WC were tonight, could we have produced a come from behind win in ****ty conditions, in a clutch game?

    Mids coach: now gather round and we'll work through some scenarios. Now pretend I'm Max, and say I tap the ball to--

    Viney: Ball? Someone say ball? GIVE ME BALL (he dives on the ball)

    Oliver: NO GIVE ME BALL

    Harmes: NO GIVE ME BALL

    Viney: NO GIVE ME BALL

    Jones: NO GIVE ME BALL

    Brayshaw: NO GIVE ME BALL

    Mids coach: *sigh*

    Not necessarily,  there is currently a 57 point differential in our percentage. Depending on how much Gws beat them we'd need to win both games by around 9 goals  combined currently.

    Surely the money has to be a dead-eye 55m Daniher bomb after the siren relegating us to 9th after we knock GWS off by 15 goals Sat night.

    Wouldn’t it be nice if we could somehow draft a player like Kelly with a pick in the twenties.

    How far off is our list compared to West Coast, they have a heap of good players on the injury list but I still think they would thrash us.

    • DRAFT: The Next Generation

      It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

    • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

      A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
