Not a lot  so far; probably because the game isn't until Monday.

From Various fan websites:

  • Druggos showing how to beat Melbourne is to tag Oliver…Nothing surer than Oliver running around by himself collecting 40 next week
  • Just what we need, an angry, fired up Melbourne on the rebound...
  • I'd like to think that we will also be angry and fired up after last night's insipid effort.
  • We will tag ben Brown and he'll kick 7
  • Don't worry Dees supporters. We'll play you into form next round.
  • Oliver had 41 lol…
    • Hahaha I saw that, couldn’t believe it.  Must’ve been 41 of the most useless posies eve
    • All rubbish. Threw it about 5 times too not called
  • Got to realize we are in a sneaky rebuild mode whilst bluffing our way to this year's Finals...
  • See which side Max is going and tell Miller to b-line it to the other side, no way Max keeps up with Miller.  Can't let him sit behind play, have to play him smart or physical.
  • I don't wanna see at half time they're 40 points up and Prestia, Hopper and Taranto have been smashed in clearances, whilst Oliver and Petracca have already racked up 25 possies and 5 clearances each. Put some body work on them and make them bloody earn their kicks.
  • Our backline is miles away from our best lineup but realistically their fwd's are pus. Young/ Van Rooyen is a good matchup. Grimes/ Fritch should work.
  • I’d take a Ben Brown right now as much as I hate saying that
  • whatever Dimma comes up with will need to be a master stroke.
  • We’ve never matched up well on the cheese platters in recent times.
    • In: Effort
    • Out: Turnovers
  • Our biggest issue is if Fists of Fury Lever plays. With no Lynch and our bombs inside 50, Lever will think he is at a Las Vegas buffet racking up intercept marks.
  • I will refrain on commenting on Richmond’s odds of winning this game until the umpires are named
  • Demons supporters don’t go to any games do they?
    • The corrupt AFL are yet to relocate the MCG, slab by slab, to Mt Buller. So no.
  • Honestly don’t understand why more Melbourne fans don’t follow suit of Max Gawn their captain and be Richmond supporters
  • Dees to play a bunch of players out of position. For instance Jake Melksham on the field.
    • Haha yeah I was happy with it. He'll prob have 5 touches and kick 3 goals now.
  • We were rubbish even before nankervis, lynch, Broad and Graham got injured.

Not Favourite

This made me laugh for its ignorance of Dimmer being a thug: 

  • No probs with playing on the edge but Dimma never condoned poor discipline

This made me angry:

  • tell Miller to sit in behind Max all game and jump into his back as often as he can.

Fists of Fury Lever! I like it too, well done Punt Rd!

I mean.. they're not wrong with majority of this lol.

"Oliver threw it 5 times not called"

Even if he does get a few flicks each game it's negated by the 5 holds on him that don't get called.

Richmond fan website.

 

I'd be interested to know what position they would play Melksham. Any chance of making an account and asking? 😛

The targeting of Max Gawn's back/head is never going to stop until the club goes to the AFL with video evidence and demands a response from the league and the umpires.

When Gawn starts getting soft frees every time someone touches him, then clubs will stop targeting him illegally. But while they can get away with it, they'll keep doing it because he is such a brilliant and important player.

I know, Luci. I was just making a point.

Once again, thanks for trawling through the muck to bring us this. 💕

I’ll be fraternising with about 20 Toiges tonight. Because it’s a shared banner, they’re coming to ours to join in the making of it. I’m wondering if any of them made any of the comments you’ve listed. Maybe I’ll climb to the top of the giant ladder and yell out, “I sure hope FISTS OF FURY LEVER is playing this Monday!” Then I’ll look for someone flinching. 😄

As in all these sites sound like us? Yeah I'm finding this more and more each week after reading this thread. I was about to say before there sounds like a serious case of RFCSS.

Makes more sense, 'the field' is his wrong position. Very typical Tiges fan comment.

I read as being on the field (regardless of position ) was considered out of position. Pretty consistent with most of DLs views tbh.

 

edit: ok I see we eventually came to the same conclusion:)

Back in the day...... when dogs would target your team mate you simply waited for the next opportunity to run through the maggot  ( oppo player and not the white varietal lol ). As you lent down to offer him assistance up... you'd whisper sweetly for his edification ;) .. " next time you're not getting up "

Sort of miss those days...  Umpiring is useless. They must see it...do nothing.

And then wonder about the lack of respect given.  I don't.   2 way street...  Earn the respect of the players... not demand it...  that's the weak way.

This day and age..    it does need to be brought to the attention of those that oversee. The Club has a duty of care...

Also...just needs to get angrier towards the inept custodianship of the game.

Time to remind the league ....it's  OUR game you're messing with. Don't trash it.

Nana-Shaz? She’s the head of the Doggies cheer squad. Quite the character, too.

No, Layz. As in, let’s bag Melksy. Again.

Right....

Do you even know what I was referring too? Or have you gone way too early on this again.

Read some of their comments again. Example A:

  • Just what we need, an angry, fired up Melbourne on the rebound..

We usually rebound well after a bad loss. Are they wrong here?

  • See which side Max is going and tell Miller to b-line it to the other side, no way Max keeps up with Miller.  Can't let him sit behind play, have to play him smart or physical.

Again, they're not wrong once again.. their ruckman will need all the luck they get trying to combat Max and Brodie.

  • Our backline is miles away from our best lineup but realistically their fwd's are pus. Young/ Van Rooyen is a good matchup. Grimes/ Fritch should work.

Yep, pretty much agree with them once again. Their backline is a shambles.

I'm happy to keep pointing them out for you?

  • NON-MFC: Round 15

    As the Demons head into their Bye Round, it's time to turn our attention to the other matches being played. Which teams are you tipping this week? And which results would be most favourable for the Demons if we can manage to turn our season around? Follow all the non-Melbourne games here and join the conversation as the ladder continues to take shape.

  • REPORT: Port Adelaide

    Of course, it’s not the backline, you might argue and you would probably be right. It’s the boot studder (do they still have them?), the midfield, the recruiting staff, the forward line, the kicking coach, the Board, the interchange bench, the supporters, the folk at Casey, the head coach and the club psychologist  It’s all of them and all of us for having expectations that were sufficiently high to have believed three weeks ago that a restoration of the Melbourne team to a position where we might still be in contention for a finals berth when the time for the midseason bye arrived. Now let’s look at what happened over the period of time since Melbourne overwhelmed the Sydney Swans at the MCG in late May when it kicked 8.2 to 5.3 in the final quarter (and that was after scoring 3.8 to two straight goals in the second term).

  • CASEY: Essendon

    Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

    The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

    The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
