Can't get Petty back quick enough. Down back.

Big ask for Tomo but been ok at times to date.  Very flakey free to Mckay for his last shot

Just an aside. May is killing Curnow. Kudos.

 

His last two games have been good I reckon

    Well don’t get use to Friday night games cos we won’t be getting them again for a while.

     

    Without a big, dominant KPF we're going to continue to struggle. Also behind a lot of the poor I50 entries IMV, no-one quite sure who to kick to. If you have your one big bloke you kick it to him if he's one on one, if he's not you kick to the secondary forwards who will have made space.

    Can't see this year being the one, you really need not just the cattle but for everything to go right, and we're losing out on both of those (injuries to Gawn, Oliver, Petty, Salem etc).


     

    Um why did we start Petracca on the bench 🤦‍♂️

    All Carlton have to do is attack the footy and hold their marks and they win easily.

    Looks poor here how does it look on tv?

    Hard to tell as the cameras keep on zooming on the faces.  

    WTF has happened to our kicking and skill level overall? Pretty ordinary. 💩

    For a so called leader Lever gives away some stupid free kicks. 


    Summary so far: both teams bad but we’re lucky they’ve been worse.

    What is up with our kicking? How many times have we kicked it straight to them? That’s not even counting the kicks to dodgy contests. So bad.

     Win or lose we need to be A LOT better against the Pies.

    If Max wasn’t captain, didn’t have his legacy, and we had an alternate he may be looking at Casey. Very sad fall  from grace. Must be carrying more injuries than we are told. ☹️

    • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.

    • PREVIEW: North Melbourne

      Can you believe it? After a long period of years over which Melbourne has dominated in matches against North Melbourne, the Demons are looking down the barrel at two defeats at the hands of the Kangaroos in the same season. And if that eventuates, it will come hot on the heels of an identical result against the Gold Coast Suns. How have the might fallen? There is a slight difference in that North Melbourne are not yet in the same place as Gold Coast. Like Melbourne, they are currently situated in the lower half of the ladder and though they did achieve a significant upset when the teams met earlier in the season, their subsequent form has been equally unimpressive and inconsistent.

    • REPORT: Adelaide

      The atmosphere at the Melbourne Football Club at the beginning of the season was aspirational following an injury-plagued year in 2024. Coach Simon Goodwin had lofty expectations with the return of key players, the anticipated improvement from a maturing group with a few years of experience under their belts, and some exceptional young talent also joining the ranks. All of that went by the wayside as the team failed to click into action early on. It rallied briefly with a new strategy but has fallen again with five more  consecutive defeats.
