Lol what was that from Dunstan? The greatest no look pass shank shot at goal.

    I think if Melksham has a good game, he might replace Sparrow. Tommy hasn’t had the best two weeks and I think Melksham across half forward still offers good goal scoring power.  Dunstan is the other key player who’s probably going to get a chance at promotion.

    Two things from this game.

    1. Umpiring is genuinely horrific. 

    2. Our VFL listed players really aren't much chop. They're the ones butchering the ball easily. Bryce Milford is the only one worth keeping an eye out as a potential AFL spot.

    Brown clunking everything.
    Weid really struggling to get into it.

    Mitch Brown a CLEAR best on ground so far.

    Weideman struggling.

    Woey looks good. Milford hasn’t done much.

    Van Rooyen looks like a proper footballer

    Woewodin can play

    Chandler next in line 

    Weideman May have played his last game for Melbourne. Would prefer the journeyman Brown to Weid

    I am loving having access to VFL live. I finally get a chance to see the AFL listed players building form. 

    Sandringham looking bog ordinary all over the ground.

    I am fan of the Weid but he is looking below par today. Constantly out of position or dropping marks that only he gets to.

    Bedford not getting heaps of it but looks AFL ready. 

    Still working out numbers, personnel etc...

    Jimmy Monroe's probably the best player on the ground, but I agree that he lacks the skills to be an AFL player. Disappointing that guys like George Grey  don't get a game when 16 melbourne players are playing.

    Weid looks a bit down on confidence. Bedford in our best at half time just needs to tidy up his kicking a bit. Van Rooyen a couple of very good contested marks and 2 goals. Laurie looks like Bowey II coming through. Woewoedin looks very composed with a nice kicking style. playing well as is Howes. Dunstan started to control clearances more as the game went on. another St Kilda gift.

    1/2 time.  Casey up by 6 goals.
    Brown is a standout. JVR will be a very very good player.
    Woey jnr moves well. Howes also. Good signs.
    Daw ok v Ryder. 
    Dunstan and Bedford just seem to be poor decision makers.  That’s what let’s them so far.
    Munro is Casey heart and soul player. Rips in.
    Weid is still too timid in my view. He needs to just demand it and crush anyone in his way to get it. Nice boy still.

    Van Rooyen is going to be a great addition for Melbourne. I think you're being a bit tough on Wiedeman. It's the first game of the season but I do think that chest mark he dropped was pretty much inexcusable.

    Brown is on the money, reading the incomings very well and towering over the packs. A couple of 'gettable' misses that may well have been converted if he took a longer run-up. Dunstan looks capable but is lacking in explosive pace for a senior role (at the present moment). Woewodin is good value but the 'cramping' of the game, packs and loose ball receives are doing him no favours. We are well ahead at half-time, but need to lift the pace considerably in the second half. There are signs of some good young talent for the Dees - some of these young guys need to experiment with being play-makers in advance of the ball - just like the work of Tracca, Fritta and Clarrie.

    Bedford could be a future AFL play-maker, alongside Woey's son. The Weed still looks disinterested, unmotivated, hesitant, seconds behind his role for the team.

    • POSTGAME: Essendon

      Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

    • GAMEDAY: Essendon

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?

    • PREVIEW: Essendon

      As the focus of the AFL moves exclusively to South Australia for Gather Round, the question is raised as to what are we going to get from the  Melbourne Football Club this weekend? Will it be a repeat of the slop fest of the last three weeks that have seen the team score a measly 174 points and concede 310 or will a return to the City of Churches and the scene where they performed at their best in 2024 act as a wakeup call and bring them out of their early season reverie?  Or will the sleepy Dees treat their fans to a reenactment of their lazy effort from the first Gather Round of two years ago when they allowed the Bombers to trample all over them on a soggy and wet Adelaide Oval? The two examples from above tell us how fickle form can be in football. Last year, a committed group of players turned up in Adelaide with a businesslike mindset. They had a plan, went in confidently and hard for the football and kicked winning scores against both home teams in a difficult environment for visitors. And they repeated that sort of effort later in the season when they played Essendon at the MCG.
