May should not be on the grog during the season (in fact I think the entire playing group shouldn’t drink in season).

This is at least his 2nd alcohol related transgression with us. As a member of the leadership group he needs to display and preserve the highest of standards to strengthen our culture.

What a load of [censored].   Players had a 9 day break between games, they are surely allowed out for a drink.

    Not the first time May has been belted by a teammate… Cambell Brown busted his jaw at Gold Coast..

    Well, it was actually in Vegas

    So much for the ‘we don’t denigrate our teammates’ mantra

    If it’s true what May said to Melksham, then he has definitely gone down a peg in my estimation of him as a bloke.

    Sad really.

    I remember in one of the docos earlier in the year (Momentum maybe) Max said these are the type of comments to teammates they were trying to cut out, bringing someone down when they’re supposed to be feeling good.
     

    Gus admitted in the same doco that’s a pretty big commitment to make to each other.  You could easily pass that type of comment as a joke if indeed that’s factual, but that’s how they want to change the culture. How angry was Melksham to respond with a punch?

    Melksham got banned for playing the Freo game.

    While this situation or any of todays events aren’t ideal, part of me doesn’t mind it. It might just be the fuel we need to light to fire again.

    I sort of feel an incident like this can go only one of two ways; it emboldens us and we go onto having a great season or everything starts to unravel.

    Because of May we have lost this game. If we play Tomlinson it’s game over hopefully we can debut Turner

    Defeatism never wins anything.

    It's not just the player it's who we replace him with. Our backline has been in disarray without him. Tomlinson along with Hunt and Lever cost us the game against Sydney. I'm confident Hunt won't play but Tomlinson I'm not sure .Give the kid Turner a go can't be any worse than Tomlinson. 

    And the lack of midfield pressure didn’t contribute?? That is an awful comment about OUR players

    If it's true what May said to Melksham then that's an absolute cheap shot and a half. 

    Probably one of the worst things you could say to a bloke that's just missed out on a flag. Can't be saying [censored] like that regardless who it is.

    I mean, what did you expect in return when Melksham was an undefeated amateur boxer back in the day.

    If true, to have that comment from a teammate with the premiership medallion must have seriously stung. It's not like it just came from some oppo supporter nuffie in the street.

    so they broke the reception desk at the restaurant in this 'scuffle'

    comment from the owner:

    Entrecote's owner posted to the restaurant's Instagram story blasting Melbourne and Steven May.

    Are they a Pies supporter?  I'd hope the club would have reached out to the venue today.

    Based on what the report says, if Melksy ever read the comments about him on here, there’d be a significant number of motionless bodies piled up. 🙃

    Of Melksham, May said the pair remained close despite the altercation.

    “We’re really good mates, we have a lot of love for each other. Sometimes guys can get a little bit competitive with the banter and go a little bit overboard,” he said.

    “We certainly made an error of judgement in that time."

    He made a poor insensitive joke, Melksham understandably took liberties. Melksham probably forgave him in 24 hours. Lets see how long the holier than thou blood bayers on this forum take.  Ill set the over/unders at 1 premiership. 🙄

    • REPORT: Essendon

      What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.

    • 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?
