Two weeks in a row Ben Brown can barely give a bloody contest. Genuinely soft efforts for such a big guy.

Not soft at all - just physically knackered tonight.

6 disposals between Fritsch JVR BBB Petty - will never ever win this way,

They look mentally tired.

Probably from all the media interviews singing about our Adelaide efforts. Well that was then.

Max is gone 

One mark.

A sad barometer.

    Another solid prior opportunity 

    When they tackle we can’t dispose of it and are caught holding the ball. 
     

    When we tackle they dispose of it with ease.

    Umpiring has to be clear direction from their coaches

    To paraphrase Paul Keating - is this the thrashing we had to have???

    Questions will be asked. 

    So at half time.... 5 goals down.  You CANNOT play the usual spare behind the ball.

    I hope Goodwin changed this structural aspect up at half time so we have even numbers at all stoppages.

    Cause we've been getting smashed around stoppages (among other areas!)


    Without question every single time this club talks itself up we lose the Next game.

    Every time 

    Can we please top media interviews.

    Oh yeah three quarters and Petty still hasn't touched it.

    Not great.

    And can we please give Kozzie another week off.

    He is not a team player.

    He's a star but he's selfish and unreliable.

     

    Not our year. In 2021 we beat all contenders. We’re just pretenders this year.

    • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

      It seems like only yesterday that these two sides faced off against each other in the centre of the continent. It was when Melbourne was experiencing a rare period of success with five wins from its previous six matches including victories over both of last year’s grand finalists.  Well, it wasn’t yesterday but it was early last month and it remains etched clearly in the memory. The Saints were going through a slump and the predicted outcome of their encounter at TIO Traeger Park was a virtual no-brainer. A Melbourne victory and another step closer to a possible rise into finals contention. Something that was unthinkable after opening the season with five straight defeats.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.
