My 3 word player analysis V Carlton

Featured Replies

Gawn - dominated in centre

Viney - total workhorse again

Petracca - classy and important 

May - dominated opponent again

Salem - some terrible decisions 

Brayshaw - focused and impressive 

Oliver - some costly errors

Rivers - was classy again

Lever - one dimensional game

Chandler - was rarely sighted

Pickett - another blockbuster disappointment 

McVee - a smooth mover

Neal-Bullen - needed more involvement 

Grundy - no second efforts 

Smith - only a substitute 

Jordon - loose and limited

van Rooyen - absent when needed

Hunter - better second half

Hibberd - made no difference 

Langdon - has slowed down

Sparrow - the junior Viney

Bowey - too many fumbles 

Melksham - had little impact

Melksham. Again no impact.

Two on the trot. 

He's simply on or off and never the twain shall meet for some reason.

 

what??? chandler rarely sighted???

kicked a goal and had 6 goal assists. means he had a hand in 7 of our goals.

Bizarre analysis.

More Heart than Grundy

Not best review

Just about his worst game.

That said, that free that was paid against him in the marking contest was a howler. 

That sort of grappling happens a 100 times a match. And when they mark it they hardly ever pay it.

But sure, ok pay it.

Then how do you not pay maxy, Grundy and jvr frees for being mauled all game?

I am beyond angry with the umpiring last night. Forget tge result, but it was simply nuts hoe many cleat holding the ball frees were not paid - for both sides, but we copped it worse.

I thought Ray in particular had a howler in the last Q...

It's ok to let the game go in a finals type tight game (maybe).

...but to not pay the sling against Riv (luckily it was picked up by another ump) and JVR having his legs taken out.

Please.....

Salem - performance lacked urgency

Agree. He and Bowey were not good.  When I look at the runners from half back and run and carry , both Bowey and Salem need to do much better.

Bit hard on JVR. He tried his heart out. 

he also beat his opponent considering conditions.

Sounds like we lost by 10 goals. 

And Carlton won the flag by the sounds of it!

People who criticise Melksham need to remember he's often playing on mutch taller opponents

  • PODCAST: 2026 Season Preview

    The boys previewed the 2026 Season sharing their early impressions of the new coach, the new players, observations from preseason training, and what they've made of the new game style. They also look ahead to the season with their predictions, the players they expect to rise, their expectations for the team, and what they see as a realistic pass mark for Melbourne in 2026.

  • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

    When the Demons blew their 46-point lead at Marvel Stadium in Round 20 last year, the fallout was enormous. Like an event straight out of a Shakespearean tragedy, Melbourne’s final-quarter collapse left fans reeling and the club grappling with the aftermath.

  • PREGAME: St. Kilda

    With just over two weeks until their opening match of the 2026 AFL Premiership season, the Demons are already well on the path to redemption and have the Saints firmly in their sights ahead of their mid-March clash at the MCG. What do you think the team will look like when they run out on to the G?

  • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

    Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.

  • REPORT: Richmond

    Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.
