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

    • AFLW REPORT: Gold Coast

      The forecast said wind. The ladder said mismatch. The scoreboard said obliteration. Melbourne didn’t just beat Gold Coast — they dismantled them: 13.15 (93) to 0.6 (6). An 87-point obliteration, the Suns held goalless, and the Demons delivering their second-highest winning margin and third-highest score in AFLW history.

      It was a tough ask for him to break through as a 199cm ruckman in the shadow of an all-time great in that position who is also the club captain. He had some good days at Casey but was unable to progress and was delisted at the end of the season.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #29 Tom Campbell

      The 33-year-old Campbell has yet to play AFL football for Melbourne, but his Casey form has been strong and he has been retained as a ready-made ruck depth option who is widely regarded as someone who is excellent for the culture of the club.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #30 Harry Sharp 

      The Demons acquired an interesting player in Sharp, who narrowly missed securing a spot in the Lions’ premiership team last year. The 22-year-old medium forward played in the opening round this season and ended up with 18 senior games, although he was substituted in or out in for ten of those matches. He demonstrated glimpses of form, but ultimately ended the year on the margins of the team.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #31 Bayley Fritsch

      Worked his way back after a slow start and a further slump in form going into the midseason but became a solid contributor for the club in the latter half of 2025. Closing in on 300 goals for the club.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Gold Coast

      On Friday, the Demons return to our Casey Fields fortress where they have a 77% win rate. The scent of September is in the air and the struggling Suns are on the horizon. The Cranbourne weather forecast? Ominous, like the match itself: a strong chance of carnage. Let’s be honest, last week’s first half against the West Coast was a training drill but we dropped our guard in the final quarter. While this match is a mismatch on paper — second versus seventeenth — football is won in the wind, the contests, and the moments.
