I think this is the most glaring example of the club/coach/captain’s stubbornness I’ve ever seen.

Grundy rendered Gawn almost useless from the very first bounce and we had absolutely nothing up our sleeve to rectify it.

 

I do. When the guy keeps running across the line to wrestle you and block your jump, jump early with knees up and it won't happen again. I was screaming that at the TV all game, but no one heard me.

    My TV also doesn’t respond.  


    “Get Spargo off” I was shouting 

    but I didn’t get any response 🤣🤣🤣

    Practice your skills. Agreed !!  
     

    5 1/2 months to work in execution of skills.


    Still no movement or forward line craft aside from Fritsch.

    Midfield bombs into forward 50. 

    At least it’s only round zero 🤣🤣

    Grundy was in front of him well before he could legally jump, smart coaching from the Swans

    If Grundy can run around into Max's area, Max can jump.

    Even if he went early and gave away a free, it wouldn't happen again.

    I was waiting for Max to counter by meeting Grundy half way. But a lot of the time he allowed it to happen. Surely you’re allowed to bump a player that’s trying to block your run at a centre bounce?

    I dunno, has to be incentive for the rucks going for the ball over just blocking, especially at the centre bounce.

    Yes indeed - I've just had a look at his stats. I wonder if my skewed view of his game was influenced by some good work he did in front of me. I was seated in the forward pocket. Plus the fact I've had a man-crush on him since he arrived at the club.

    I've always thought he is one of our elite players.

    He has dramatically dropped in form since last year.

    Viney - the umpires friend

    Not that I’m complaining but there might be a bit of through to that.

    In round 24 last year Gulden played a near perfect 40 possession 2 goal game and yet Viney got the 3 votes.

    I reckon Viney will poll extremely well in the Brownlow this year provided we tick the wins over.

    …could’ve run around into Grundy’s area. A bit Marx Brothers, but would have been better.

    • 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.
