As long as it is just a well earnt rest and nothing more serious because no doubt that without May we cannot win a flag. 

No May and no Tmac. Definitely not confident. 

Absolutely.  No May. No flag. Or even prelim.

 

Some very lax defensive running.

    Midfield defending has been poor thus far. Clarry, Trac, Harmes and Langdon all jogging while their opposition runs off.

    Coaches need to find a way to fire them up consistently.

    TWICE now Oliver just ambling back with no intensity instead of chasing his man, resulting in 2 shots at goal. 

    So much for wanting to be the best teammate he can be.

    This is the stuff that ends up spreading through the whole team.

    That was quite possibly the worst goal we have given up this year. 


    They are beating us the exact same way they did last time

    Adelaide need to kick 10 more goals like that and they'll win; demons have to be switched on with their defensive running because Adelaide will try to run it out of defence all day.

    That was very lazy.


    I’ve said before and I’ll say it again.

    Salem’s  disposal is very ordinary under any sort of pressure , especially handball.

    I agree with this

    i might be seeing things but clarry might need to run a bit harder defensively?!?

    Deja vu all over again.

    Rat**** defensive running from Clarry. He’s well off today. 

    Cmon Dees fire up ffs. Should beat these sorts of teams by 60+ by now.

    Where's the tackling? always struggle when we don't tackle

    They know they can beat us and we are just not getting out of first gear. 

     

    Why do we fail to show due respect to these teams

    • 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.
