What was that?

Conceded 7 goals in a row. 

and this is against a supposed rebuilding side missing its entire starting midfield and #1 forward

not great


Been impressed with Billings. Clean on hands, pretty accurate inside 50 and has stood up well in tackles.

Getting killed on the turnover

About to say the same thing.

Need to clean up the ball movement.

These turnovers are yuck - unfortunately this team continues to really struggle with physical pressure 

 

Richmond just cleaner by foot, they are controlling the ball.

I think you need to look at it in presepective though. Lot of young kids and are not as clean as the Tigers on the turnover.


Well we looked good for about 15 minutes before Richmond showed up. 

 

No idea why we didn't have a crack at Jacob Koschitzke in the trade period either

Sparrow kick going inside 50 leads to a turnover and they go back up the other end with a few uncontested kicks - that’s been the story of this game since about 15 mins into the first qtr 

Getting slaughtered on the transition once again.

Nothing has changed.

they're going from d50 to f50 with no one putting a scintilla of effort against em

Watching on TV. Could see Trac on his haunches and looking a little bit uncomfortable early in this 2nd term and haven’t seen him since.
 

Can anyone at the game see him?

 

Update: He has come back on around 24:00 and moving fine

Update


Issue looks to be 2 way running.  We are not covering their players but instead running off into space.  A turnover and we are caught out.

i'd just like to see no injuries tbh

lol why am i wasting my Sunday on this. 

 

Gee some flaky defending. Howes looks a very easy player to hassle out of the contest. 

Obviously time to get them in the sheds at 2/7 time for a re-think, re-calculation and a re-set. Momentum is king.

    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.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: #10 Daniel Turner

    “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.
