Can Goody rev us up?

worst display of kicking I’ve seen in years

zero intensity

And zero creativity. We look scared to take the game on

 

Hard to blame the forward line as a collective when 1) Fritsch burns 4 teammates and decides to shoot for goal instead of hitting up a teammate for an easy goal; 2) Melksham completely shanks a kick to Pickett who would have run in to an open goal.  

We've looked far better on Langdon's wing and if wasn't for the above and our poor shots at goal we'd have put 4-5 on the board.

 

Wow that lacked intensity and skill. Every time we kick inside 50, we are lucky to have 1 player moving, let alone anyone leading. We have a huge problem if our only leading forward is Gawn. And  talk about static. Where has our run gone?


Almost everything from the Dees seems half hearted.

And, yet again, no tall as the sub.  We will get screwed. 

At least a tall as medi sub

Their part time ruckman Dixon has more hit outs than our three ruckmen. Sheesh.

Sub is a small when we went small anyway.

Weid obviously is not wanted by us. 

Petracca's half effort cost us a goal. Why are we lacking so much confidence in our forward half. Better off attacking the goal. How many times do miss gettable shots on goal with no wind at the ground. Our kicking has gone backwards this season. ?lIt is so bloody frustrating. We need a forward in this team. Why didn't we pick JvR this round. Perfect opportunity to debut. 


This game has Cairns vibes about it. No fluency, ball movement laboured and players looking lost for answers. I don't where the spark is going to come from.

Port aren't much chop either so won't take much to beat them. Who will stand up for us? Maybe Viney can grab the game by the scruff of the neck and lead by example

 

It would be downright embarrassing to get beaten by this mob.

This game is screaming out for Trac to show why he’s top tier.


Kozzie in the bounce!!

1st quarter 

🤬pathetic. Zero goals. Slow and wide and wide and wide. Not daring. No overlap running.  Go wide and wide.  
🤬missed opportunities.  Fritsch. Pickett. Jackson. 
🤡BBB and Bedford.  

 

Lever back on.

Kozzie into the middle

    A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.

    It’s Game Day, and the Demons return to the MCG wounded, undermanned and desperate. Still searching for their first win of the season, Melbourne faces a daunting task against the Fremantle Dockers. With key pillars missing at both ends of the ground, the Dees must find a way to rise above the adversity and ignite their season before it slips way beyond reach. Will today be the spark that turns it all around, or are we staring down the barrel of a 0–6 start?

  • PREVIEW: Fremantle

    A month is a long time in AFL football. The proof of this is in the current state of the two teams contesting against each other early this Saturday afternoon at the MCG. It’s hard to fathom that when Melbourne and Fremantle kicked off the 2025 season, the former looked like being a major player in this year’s competition after it came close to beating one of the favourites in the GWS Giants while the latter was smashed by Geelong to the tune of 78 points and looked like rubbish. Fast forward to today and the Demons are low on confidence and appear panic stricken as their winless streak heads towards an even half dozen and pressure mounts on the coach and team leadership.  Meanwhile, the Dockers have recovered their composure and now sit in the top eight. They are definitely on the up and up and look most likely winners this weekend against a team which they have recently dominated and which struggles to find enough passages to the goals to trouble the scorers. And with that, Fremantle will head to the MCG, feeling very good about itself after demolishing Richmond in the Barossa Valley with Josh Treacy coming off a six goal haul and facing up to a Melbourne defence already without Jake Lever and a shaky Steven May needing to pass a fitness test just to make it onto the field of play.
