    As shaky a defensive effort. I’m calling it, we will get rolled!!

     

    And people don’t think we should call Clarkson. The man is a genius. Getting out coached and out played badly.

    Hibbo. NFI

    3rd quarter

    Dees pathetic effort against bottom team Again !!! 

    X bombing to packs in fwd 50 

    x no leads 

    x Hawks leading in fwd zone 

    x Hawks winning contested footy

    x Vandenburg and Viney cannot hit a target 

    X Trac handballs to no one. Handballs to Jackson surrounded by 3 Hawks. 
    x ball watching. Gawn.

    x out tackled 
    x kicking for goal. Pathetic. 

    nine negatives  

    zero positives

    Just now, leave it to deever said:

    Its bizarre we can beat every side in the eight but struggle only to bottom teams.

    We have sloppy skills, and don't stick tackles

    We're susceptible to a dog fight, but our structure holds up against class

    You can tell when we're off. Double grabbing loose balls and inviting pressure. Slow predictable ball movement. So frustrating to watch.

    % now back below Geelong.

    Any team with heart and character would have boosted their % by 10 tonight, but, no ... will be bloody lucky to even get over the lien

    Hawthorn players are just free. 6 more scoring shots. Those early misses might cost us. 

    Top teams put away these bottom teams.

    Melbourne have always had this attitude of coasting against lower teams & think it will just happen


    Boooooooooooooooo

     

    Hawthorn are out working us pure and simple. But my god umpiring that 50 set a standard. Hawthorn player ran into one of our who marked and nothing.

    • The Clayton Oliver Thread

      Melbourne have held talks with Clayton Oliver and they’ve laid out where he fits in under Steve King’s vision and been frank about expectations. Oliver is still under contract for five years, but the door is open if he wants to explore his options elsewhere.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Essendon

      It’s Pink Lady night at Princes Park — a vibey Friday evening setting for a high-stakes clash between second-placed Melbourne and eleventh-placed Essendon. The wind-sheltered IKON Park, a favourite ground of the Demon players, promises flair, fire and a touch of pink. Melbourne has never lost a home-and-away game here, though the ghosts of two straight-sets finals exits in 2023 still linger.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 1 Steven May 

      The premiership defender has shown signs of wear and tear due to age, and his 2025 season was inconsistent, ending poorly with a suspension and a noticeable decline in performance. The Demons are eager to integrate younger players onto their list and have indicated that they may not be able to guarantee him senior games next season, in what would be the final year of his contract.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 2 Jacob van Rooyen

      The young key tall failed to make progress during the season, with a decline in his goal kicking output. His secondary role as a backup ruckman, which may have hindered his ability to further develop his game, and he was also impacted by the team's poor forward connection. It will be interesting to observe his performance under a new coaching regime.
