Can anyone explain the lining up of that kick after the siren - it was for OOB on the full but the man on the mark was brought in 10-15 meters.

Outside 5 cos didn’t stand mark immediately

But then was moved to 10 metres not 5, these clown umpires.

    I reckon we will run this game out but I’m really hoping to see a lift from guys like JVR and Sparrow. If they get involved and kick a few, we’ll be ok. We will need the lift.

    He chose the outside 5 option.  The best option for any kick from the boundary when its OOTF.

    But was then ordered to stand 10 meters away instead of 5.... go figure.

    Umps making the rules up on the run.  And as per usual its mostly us getting the rough end of the pineapple.

    Harrison Petty please, please, please get well soon!!!

    Looks like JVR needs him to avoid mismatches.

    a better quarter, but then that was not a particulary high mark to reach with only 1 goal in each of the first 2 quarters. really need to improve our disposal of the ball still pretty poor, lots of turn overs and kicking to the opposition. Gawny needs to change up his routine getting beaten too easily

     


    My app says it still feels like 26 degrees up there. Will takes it toll. Hopefully we aren’t a player down with Bowey. But this is where we’ll see if selwyn is worth his paycheck. Hopefully our more seasoned players will start to roll over the top. Carn Dees 🔴🔵

    Petty will make everyone better. Who goes to Petty JVR and Fritsch. Then add Kozzie and we have some very exciting forward half players. 

     

    Schache, sorry to say; no chase.

    • 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.
