I want to see that collective flatness morph into a steely resolve over the next five days.

I want our supporters getting on board tomorrow and make it another sell out crowd. It would disgust me if the demon fan support dropped of from last Thursday.

It's a very negative way to "attack" and try and goal. Let's just attempt to kick goals and if we get our share then the opposition  has to outmatch us. 
No wonder we didn't bridge the deficit on Thursday because it was a scramble to get the ball. Of course our accuracy and skill at goal kicking was so bog ordinary as well. It suited the defenders more than the forwards.

If we are to take advantage of our superior fitness we need to encourage and give our forwards the ability to have a red hot go at a target we are chasing. There has to be some risk, some reward!

The above is a reply to Kev Martin and not to the poster Wodjathefirst.

Let’s face it, not losing anything with Van Rooyen out, a full forward who don’t kick goals.

You know that's not true. 

 

28.9 I believe, against the big boys in AFL, scored goals in 17 of his 20 games so far plus he rucks and covers a lot of territory, I am just disappointed that he got rubbed out when we need him the most.!!!

  • 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.
