How many times are Richmond going to get away with holding the man every time we go inside forward 50 ?

    So Kozzie wins teh first clearance and has barely been back in there.

    Get him in there more.

    Funny how if you touch a guy off the ball it's [censored] city. But you can jump in to anyone and take them out

    Still a bit unclear on why Marlion Pickett is allowed to play matches right now. Will be very strange if he’s found guilty.

    Kosi has to play more in the middle. Richmond are cutting us up with pace. No Sparrow or Oliver is really hurting. 

    Poor defensive work all over the ground.

    As many as they do is the answer.

    Harmes just killing us. Hasn’t had an effective disposal and missed two sitters. Surely this is his last game

    Kozzie and Viney seemed very quiet that quarter. Pickett and Petracca needs to play more in the middle with Oliver and Sparrow out


    Need Kozzie in the middle 

    Melksham struggles to play constantly good. Chandler seems the same 

    Max lifted the last five minutes and it makes a huge difference. He's such a barometer.

     

    Everything coming off for Richmond, don't know how long that can last

    Tigers scoring 1/2 entries …. It is not sustainable - expect that to dry up.

    Also need a sweeper behind the ball at stoppage.

    A wide fast shootout against the Tigers is not the way to win. 
    We have to get on top in the contested possessions or we won’t win this. If we keep the game this open they’ll keep cutting us up. 
    I understand we want to play more attacking, but when it’s not working it’s not working. We know we can win a slog so make it a slog.

    Why, thought you are innocent until proven guilty.

    No composure. 
    we have none. So many dump kicks, hurried handballs. We need to compose ourselves. 
     

    When we have a clean centre bounce we need to keep the ball lower. So many long bombs.

    Need much more from Salem, JJ, Chandler all three need to get more involved. Hunter and Langdon need to win more contests on the wing.

    Bowey’s disposal hasn’t been great.

     

    We miss Sri’s and Clarrie on days like this when the opposition loves the contest as much of not more.

    FMD you useless [censored] umpire. Blow your [censored] whistle 

    It's not the umpires who have continually fumbled and missed straight-forward shots at goal.

    • 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.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #3 Christian Salem   

      Salem proved to be a valuable contributor as a reliable and solid one-on-one medium-sized defender in what was undoubtedly his most impressive season since the premiership year. He remains a highly capable rebounding option for the Demons as he approaches his 200th game at the club.
