Kozzie needs to get involved, as does Big Benny Brown.

Gawny seems mentally off. 

Trac needs to sharpen his mind.

Our trademark, crazy, over-the-head handballs are anxiety-inducing.

    Chandler deserves some slack but he’s a mile off it. I can’t remember an involvement that was a positive one.

    Meanwhile Weid and T Mac in the side is a thing of beauty.

     

    Really enjoying Weid's contribution at the moment. He's hanging on to his marks, which is an excellent sign. Can't wait to see the boys get around him when he kicks one, which is inevitable.

    TMac has been immense, again. I'm stoked for him.

    Weid is still  2 grabbing almost everything.

    Would transform his game if he could trade his hands for Casboults.

    Raining all thru half time and looks to be getting heavier from my spot on level 2

    We are playing middling football but so are they 

    Salem the only clean user

    These three were not great last game either.

    Yes over the head to no one, Quite a few players not in the form they were a few weeks ago.

    All the numbers are going to Brown, need to be smart kicking inside 50, if we can do that, we win this by plenty. 

    one too many talls if you ask me.. brown goes out. fritsch needs to tackle and chase. chandler not going great. loving weed’s work.

    As usual, if I only looked at the match day thread, I'd assume we were 30 points down.

    We'll probably win but far from convincing. The dogs and Lions will give us a bath if we play like this against them.

    OK but it's our backline and TMac keeping us in front, quite a few need to lift.

    I hope Sparrow is good. We are missing Viney.

    Like last week we've got a fair few players that need to lift. Midfield isn't all that inspiring right now. It starts in the middle and we've just gotta win some contests, things will flow from there.

    Wouldn't mind seeing Petracca go forward, Neal-Bullen go into the middle. give us a bit of a different look

     


    Hopefully May accidentally crunches Mackays shoulder again this Q

    Need to do something.

     

    Just wondering are people allowed to seek shelter under cover during the rain or are they forced to remain in their seats?

      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.
