Anyone think the umpiring is not terrible?

BBB getting marks in the wing and CHF. Need him inside 50 kicking goals. It’s our lack of Tmcd or a CHF that’s a killer !! 

But that’s not his fault. He is playing the role he’s being asked to play which is clearly the TMac role. 

 

C’mon Dee’s …. Let’s give 100% … this game is here to be won to stay top two

Someone needs to get into langdons ear about his short sleeve jumper. He looks ridiculous.

Yup, said in a group chat, we have 5 games coming up and can easily lose them all. We haven’t been great all year, we have had great qtrs etc and got wins, but overall been good, but not great and if we play like we have been, including today, we are making up numbers.

See Richmond 2019 and 2020. We are miles ahead of where they were this deep in the season. We don't look great and like them we are only 1-2 losses away from losing a grasp on the top 4. But 2-3 strong wins including this week sets us up. Richmond were 11-6 after 18 rounds in 2019.

we are poo

Our leaders for the 2nd week in a row have failed to stand up.

Gawn, May, Petracca, Salem all poor.


For the past two years we lose games like this. Throw your house at Port.

I can’t see how we win this. Our midfield is embarrassing. Oliver is so clearly the glue that holds us together. 

Gawn and Jackson are completely non existent around ground and in the air.

I can see why Melksham was brought in for Oliver.

Vomitous decision 🤮

Any chance there is a 4 goal breeze to left of screen?? 😬

  • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

    The media has performed a complete reversal in its coverage of the Melbourne Football Club over the past month and a half. Having endured intense criticism from all quarters in the press, which continually identified new avenues for scrutiny of every aspect, both on and off the field, and prematurely speculated about the departures of coaches, players, officials, and various employees from a club that lost its first five matches and appeared out of finals contention, the narrative has suddenly shifted to one of unbridled optimism.  The Demons have won five of their last six matches, positioning themselves just one game (and a considerable amount of percentage) outside the top eight at the halfway mark of the season. They still trail the primary contenders and remain far from assured of a finals berth.

  • REPORT: Sydney

    A few weeks ago, I visited a fellow Melbourne Football Club supporter in hospital, and our conversation inevitably shifted from his health diagnosis to the well-being of our football team. Like him, Melbourne had faced challenges in recent months, but an intervention - in his case, surgery, and in the team's case, a change in game style - had brought about much improvement.  The team's professionals had altered its game style from a pedestrian and slow-moving approach, which yielded an average of merely 60 points for five winless games, to a faster and more direct style. This shift led to three consecutive wins and a strong competitive effort in the fourth game, albeit with a tired finish against Hawthorn, a strong premiership contender.  As we discussed our team's recent health improvement, I shared my observations on the changes within the team, including the refreshed style, the introduction of new young talent, such as rising stars Caleb Windsor, Harvey Langford, and Xavier Lindsay, and the rebranding of Kozzy Pickett from a small forward to a midfield machine who can still get among the goals. I also highlighted the dominance of captain Max Gawn in the ruck and the resurgence in form in a big way of midfield superstars Christian Petracca and Clayton Oliver.

  • POSTGAME: Sydney

    The Demons controlled the contest from the outset, though inaccurate kicking kept the Swans in the game until half time. But after the break, Melbourne put on the jets and blew Sydney away and the demolition job was complete.
