Petty ahead of Brown and Jefferson? Every day of the week.

Everyday...  EVERYDAY ?? 

Tbh honest atm Petty is all over the shop..  brilliant one game....did he even turn up....turned it up on other occasions.   Personally,  and cue the wolves/ jackals/ meerkats.... I think overall he's quite 'average'.   Some will roll out excuses but you wander over that white line you've called yourself as good to go...  and often he isn't.   I get we're bereft of that real KPF..   Roo is good...but he's young....in 3 to 4 ...could be really something.    He Roo  does offer  a chop out to Max... so hes not the real KPF... Goody seems compelled /stuck with Petty.   

Id give Jeffo a crack...   i dont see him as any worse... and might surprise  ( might not )

If Petty...its by reluctant default....and yeah....thats why you pick players eh

Go Dees

    Freo have gotten the better of us the last two times, but I'd like to know why, aside from Freo being up and about for an MCG challenge,

    In 2022 May went off with concussion at quarter time which threw our structure out the door as Rory Lobb of all people got the better of us.

    In 2023 we went small and and forced Lever to play tall against the likes of Amiss, Tracey and Jackson and it backfired as per usual when we've gone in with a small defence.

    Other than that, can anyone think what they've had over us from a tactical point of view.

    Not tactics - just the ‘L’ word - or intensity of training volume and density. 👊🥩💥

    Great interview, Goodie looks very relaxed which is pleasing. I'm very happy he's our coach!

    That first one in 22 was a really out of character Freo performance where they came out in the second half and kept the ball moving like free flowing water. They got some good fortune with it and with May out the damage was tenfold. 

    Not expecting this to happen for sure but the message from me would be don't be slow to react if it does.

    Felt some minor discomfort in his adductor at training today according to Richo. They expect JvR to be available next week.

    May and Petty were both out in that game. We were very unlucky that night.

    • 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.
