    Nice eyes and delivery from Spargo there

    3 goal assists so far from Brownlow ...something happens when he touches the ball Rusty

    Fyfe announced their strategy to push us into the contest and work the outside. We've done nothing to counter it. So dumb and slow to respond.

     

    it's the easy Gawn counter and we have fallen for it for years..

    We dont cover off on the outside ...too many easy loose gives for the opponent around the contest. No one on one intensity outside

    It's the same clearance problem as the game against the dogs except this time, Oliver and Brayshaw are back in there. 

    What are the excuses? 

     

    Boy we have some woeful set shot exponents

    All started from Lever and then Kozzy's ability to compete and draw the free

    James Jordan. BOG. 

    I'd put Jackon in the middle as mid to try and help with the clearences. Need to try something differen't if the starting mids areb't having any impact.


    Max is not as good as we think he is...

    Max hitting it into Freo's space ...seriously at least find a colour and hit it somewhere near there or grab the pill and take the tackle

    Brayshaw hasn’t taken one centre bounce. He’s been on the wing all day

    Our midfield [censored] sucks. Seriously overrated one dimensional group of players.

    Nothing has improved at all.

    He is good, but the connection and smart play is missing.  Is he hitting it to the wrong spot or the mids are running to the right spots?

      A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.

    • GAMEDAY: Fremantle

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons return to the MCG wounded, undermanned and desperate. Still searching for their first win of the season, Melbourne faces a daunting task against the Fremantle Dockers. With key pillars missing at both ends of the ground, the Dees must find a way to rise above the adversity and ignite their season before it slips way beyond reach. Will today be the spark that turns it all around, or are we staring down the barrel of a 0–6 start?

    • PREVIEW: Fremantle

      A month is a long time in AFL football. The proof of this is in the current state of the two teams contesting against each other early this Saturday afternoon at the MCG. It’s hard to fathom that when Melbourne and Fremantle kicked off the 2025 season, the former looked like being a major player in this year’s competition after it came close to beating one of the favourites in the GWS Giants while the latter was smashed by Geelong to the tune of 78 points and looked like rubbish. Fast forward to today and the Demons are low on confidence and appear panic stricken as their winless streak heads towards an even half dozen and pressure mounts on the coach and team leadership.  Meanwhile, the Dockers have recovered their composure and now sit in the top eight. They are definitely on the up and up and look most likely winners this weekend against a team which they have recently dominated and which struggles to find enough passages to the goals to trouble the scorers. And with that, Fremantle will head to the MCG, feeling very good about itself after demolishing Richmond in the Barossa Valley with Josh Treacy coming off a six goal haul and facing up to a Melbourne defence already without Jake Lever and a shaky Steven May needing to pass a fitness test just to make it onto the field of play.
