Why the heck are we playing a defensive, around the boundary line style against the bottom side? Seriously take the bloody game on

    Hopefully we saved the best for last. Hawks turned up the intensity that quarter 

    nah

    Because we suffer from CAS (corridor aversion syndrome)

    What a great kick. Rivers has been super today.

    Partly due to no one leading up at the ball since Petty went off?

    Also until Max switched in late, Grundy got smacked in the third in center bounces and we handed all the momentum (via clearances) to the Hawks

    I hear what your saying but surely when you have an undersized forward line, the slow play around the boundary is only going to allow them to flood into our 50, making it near impossible for us to score 


    Subject to fitness, BBB straight in next week if Petty's injured

    Another very solid game from Gus


    So you're allowed to drag the ball under and just sit on it now??  Oh right....only if it's in front of our goals

    Another horribilis for the umps tonight.  What a sham

    Dunstalls commentary (or should I say barracking for the Dawks) is somewhat unfriggin bearable 🤫

    ANB our leading KTF !  :jakovich:

    Another game, exact same old problems.  Skill level & wasted forward connection/composure. Geelong & Collingwood would tear us apart.  One quarter of elite pressure and then couldn't be assed and started back pedalling through the middle.

    Can't really work out who has played well today.  Quite a forgettable one.  Still can't see any improvement from the back end of last year tbh.

    P.S - May has an amazing habit of getting in the right spot but then dropping the mark. 🤔

    • The Clayton Oliver Thread

      Melbourne have held talks with Clayton Oliver and they’ve laid out where he fits in under Steve King’s vision and been frank about expectations. Oliver is still under contract for five years, but the door is open if he wants to explore his options elsewhere.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Essendon

      It’s Pink Lady night at Princes Park — a vibey Friday evening setting for a high-stakes clash between second-placed Melbourne and eleventh-placed Essendon. The wind-sheltered IKON Park, a favourite ground of the Demon players, promises flair, fire and a touch of pink. Melbourne has never lost a home-and-away game here, though the ghosts of two straight-sets finals exits in 2023 still linger.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 1 Steven May 

      The premiership defender has shown signs of wear and tear due to age, and his 2025 season was inconsistent, ending poorly with a suspension and a noticeable decline in performance. The Demons are eager to integrate younger players onto their list and have indicated that they may not be able to guarantee him senior games next season, in what would be the final year of his contract.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 2 Jacob van Rooyen

      The young key tall failed to make progress during the season, with a decline in his goal kicking output. His secondary role as a backup ruckman, which may have hindered his ability to further develop his game, and he was also impacted by the team's poor forward connection. It will be interesting to observe his performance under a new coaching regime.
