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.  

 
 

Melksham is a good boxer i bet that right hand woulda hurt 


This is the ultimate in idiocy from May.  
 

And he’s my imaginary football boyfriend 😂

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 may got punched how is melksham not banned?!

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.

Hmmm seems the three second rule doesn’t apply to imaginary boyfriends. 🤨

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.

5 minutes ago, whatwhat say what said:

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. 🙄

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

  • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

    Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.

  • CASEY: Williamstown

    The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

    Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

  • AFLW REPORT: St. Kilda

    The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
