I picked Hawthorn today, as much as I loathe them. Clarkson is a coaching genius and his game day coaching a particular strength. Watching it now, it looks like the Dogs will come over the top in the 2nd half but It would be great for the Dees to see the Doggies get rolled. 

If the dogs get rolled, they could be playing for a top 4 spot against Port. Brisbane are currently 2 games behind them.  Charlie Dixon will have a field day if the dogs play like this.

Dogs losing doesn’t really help us if:

Port win twice 

Geelong win twice.

If that’s the case we’ll all be booking flights for Adelaide for the qualifying final.

I just can’t see Port beating the Dogs but gees they’re playing poor footy so who knows. 
All I know is we can win the next two and finish first and that’s what matters.

I have it engrained in my mind that we simply lose to Geelong in Geelong.

Whether it’s Zac Thuoey kicking a goal after a siren or losing by 100 pints 2 games after a prelim appearance. Bad things happens down there to Melbourne.

Be delighted to be proven wrong.

Port could most certainly beat the Dogs.

 

Clarko showing the Competition that he is still The Master Coach 

Have Whorethorn done the right thing….?

Big Shoes need to be filled. Kennett is responsible….

Time will tell whether they have done the right thing or not. Regardless, I've always felt that any decision Kennett makes is about putting himself front and centre. 

I think Mitchell will be a good coach but history tell us that Clarko still had 1 more crack at rebuilding a side. 
I think Clarko as game day and head coach with Mitchell as development and senior assistant would have been lethal but then ego and money will get in the way of most things.

Absolutely. This is all on Jeffrey Gibb Kennett 

Mitchell is being thrown to the wolves with a very average list. If he survives it will be astounding 

Box Hill is not the same…

Stuart out for the year could help.

For some reason I thought Mitchell was lobbying in the background to take over the role. If he was not white-anting possibly the best coach of all time he certainly could have told Kennett that he was not interested in the job yet.

How is he being thrown to the wolves?

Yep. Mitchell as Assistant for 2-3 years. Not at Box Hill would have been my agenda. 
But we watch and plan to beat them each year. 
We owe them decades of pain

Confirmed Tom Stewart is our for the year. Lisfranc surgery. Massive blow to the Cats especially on top of Touey and Duncan

If port split clearances the dogs will be in strife.  Port have gone tall this week with Dixon, Georgiades, Marshall and Ladhams. Hinkley is just playing them into form in preparation for the kindergarten sized dogs defence.

He isn’t ready, although he thinks he is, I am sure he has Convinced Jeffrey of that.

Kennett hasn’t wanted Clarko in the chair for years, for whatever reason. Hopefully Clarkson will get another top job. 
He hasn’t finished his tenure. That is abundantly clear. The Hawks 22 are very average at this point…

I reckon the toughness of the dogs is questionable. Bont McCrae etc are amazing but as far as toughness goes I’d back us in every day if the week

Will Tmac be in tmrw....any news?

 

He’s been ruled out already. 
 

If there’s a miracle this weekend and dogs, port and cats lose and we win tomorrow we 100% finish 1st? Even if we lose next week 

won’t happen but I can wish

  • 2025 Player Reviews: #7 Jack Viney

    The Demon stalwart surpassed the number of his father's appearances for the club towards the end of the season. As he approaches his thirties, his pace is inevitably slowing, and he is likely to explore alternative opportunities beyond the team's midfield.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: #8 Jake Lever

    The Demon premiership defender who has the reputation the master of intercept possessions as well as great leadership qualities managed only eight senior games this season as he battled injury and form, prompting speculation that he might be enticed to look elsewhere.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: #10 Daniel Turner

    “Disco” took his time (four seasons) but the mid-season draftee has been a shining light of Melbourne's campaign, improving to become a versatile option at either end of the ground. He has great marking skills which allows him to play as a marking target up forward or an intercepting defender down back.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: #11 Max Gawn

    The skipper delivered another outstanding season, leading the team from the front, participating in every game, and earning club champion honours, while also securing an equal record eighth All-Australian blazer as a ruckman.  Max Gawn is arguably the greatest exponent of ruck skills in the history of the game; an exceptional leader who has guided the club to a premiership, through the challenging times that followed, and now into the next phase of its storied history.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: #12 Koltyn Tholstrup 

    It was a frustrating season for the former number 13 draft selection, who failed to build momentum in his second campaign; Tholstrup played only nine games, having been omitted twice and substituted out three times. However, he demonstrated promising signs in the midfield at Casey towards the end of the season, and big things are anticipated from him in the coming years.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: #13 Clayton Oliver

    Clayton Oliver, a four-time best and fairest winner at the club, has navigated a challenging period over the past two years, marked by injuries and personal issues, but has demonstrated promising signs suggesting a return to his optimal form in 2025. He is presently contracted to the club for an additional five years, with a substantial annual salary of approximately $1.7 million in the final seasons of his agreement. All at Melbourne are eagerly anticipating his resurgence to his previous peak performance levels.
