Will take that finish to the half any day of the week. We are getting skinned on the outside at the moment.

I cannot figure out why they are bouncing off so many tackles, we're winning the tackle count but there just isn't enough wrapping up.

To win this we will probably need to make it a score from clearances game. I'm on level 4 on the Wing so have a very good view of structure and setup. Kozzie was in the middle for the first bounce and no others. His pace at ground level can't be ignored, it WILL give them problems. Get him in there more for the love of God. 

And note to  opposition teams match day entertainment. No one cares for the are you paying attention thing, I'm trying to write this.

    It’s too risky to activate the sub this early. If we cop an injury we are in trouble. 
    They won’t make the change until late in the third at the earliest.

    Can someone explain why they think Kossie should be a midfielder?

    Because he wins the footy, pressures the opposition and is a decent kick going inside 50.

    Can you explain why he shouldn't be?

    Tigers are playing very good footy. Unfortunately Harmes missed those two shots at goal - he kicks those and his game looks very different. As it is he is worst on ground.

    I feel like we got sold a dud here. I thought he was a much better player

    Oooof what a mess.

    61pts against us, so far, in a half. Our backline is a mess and has been for a while. What happened to our fortress?

    Typical for us to serve this [censored] after port and the lions open up an avenue to second place. 

    And what the hell was that from Gus??

    Kozzie back in the middle, just get Harmes to tag somebody, best use we can get from him, and EVERYBODY PULL THEIR FINGERS OUT and stop giving them cheap goals.

    The fortress is exhausted from saving their ars#s time after time week after week.

    It is inevitable

    And you forgot one important thing. He has PACE

    Without Clarry and Sparrow we are very one dimensional. Gus, Viney and JJ aren’t fast.

    If it went south he might be in jail.

    No “might” about it. Very serious charges, and previous form. Have there been any other examples of someone playing who’s out on bail?

    45 metres out on the run.  Players free and …

    miskick to tigers player. Ffs !!!

    He has been so slow all day.

     


    Kozzie won the first few centre clearances at the start of the match then goody put him in the forward line. 

    He creates something 

    We have to get on top in the contest. The only way to beat the Richmond chaos ball, is to get your hands on the ball more and first.

    Also because we are struggling for options in this department.

    Must get on top in the middle. If we invite too many defensive entries they are going to stuff us.

    Richmond kaos ball going i50 is showing up May and Lever, who both cannot bend over to get the ball. Their small/med forwards tearing up up

    Very damm simple he has no tank put him in for a full quarter and that's him, great speed in short bursts and sometimes that's how some players are, then they become a liability sooner him stay inside the 50 metre arc more dangerous.

    Melksham really struggles to play more than one good game in a row. Now it's three. Chandler only one good act. Jvr has been okay but needs to hold more marks.

     

    Tigers are desperately playing for their finals chances. We really have to step up in the second half. 

    Well this is the quarter we will see if we want a flag more than these pretenders want to scrape into the eight.

      The Demon stalwart surpassed the number of his father's appearances for the club towards the end of the season. As he approaches his thirties, his pace is inevitably slowing, and he is likely to explore alternative opportunities beyond the team's midfield.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #8 Jake Lever

      The Demon premiership defender who has the reputation the master of intercept possessions as well as great leadership qualities managed only eight senior games this season as he battled injury and form, prompting speculation that he might be enticed to look elsewhere.

      “Disco” took his time (four seasons) but the mid-season draftee has been a shining light of Melbourne's campaign, improving to become a versatile option at either end of the ground. He has great marking skills which allows him to play as a marking target up forward or an intercepting defender down back.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #11 Max Gawn

      The skipper delivered another outstanding season, leading the team from the front, participating in every game, and earning club champion honours, while also securing an equal record eighth All-Australian blazer as a ruckman.  Max Gawn is arguably the greatest exponent of ruck skills in the history of the game; an exceptional leader who has guided the club to a premiership, through the challenging times that followed, and now into the next phase of its storied history.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #12 Koltyn Tholstrup 

      It was a frustrating season for the former number 13 draft selection, who failed to build momentum in his second campaign; Tholstrup played only nine games, having been omitted twice and substituted out three times. However, he demonstrated promising signs in the midfield at Casey towards the end of the season, and big things are anticipated from him in the coming years.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #13 Clayton Oliver

      Clayton Oliver, a four-time best and fairest winner at the club, has navigated a challenging period over the past two years, marked by injuries and personal issues, but has demonstrated promising signs suggesting a return to his optimal form in 2025. He is presently contracted to the club for an additional five years, with a substantial annual salary of approximately $1.7 million in the final seasons of his agreement. All at Melbourne are eagerly anticipating his resurgence to his previous peak performance levels.
