Anyone else think Disco is a better player, than BBB OR JEFFO??

 

-12 in contested possessions is pathetic. There is no other way to frame it. 

Unbelievable what this team is becoming, sure 1st qtr but as usual they are looking off & freo gave never played, our mids honestly and our fwds , dumb decision in the backline

Oliver is now a fully fledged turnover merchant.

Of course he is, but no, you can't say that on here because hea a protected species. 

Costs us goals every week.

McAdam couldn’t make the distance the last 2 weeks but that was put down to learning the Melbourne system.

Some things just are in football with no need for learning a system.

A 5kg dumbbell is a 5kg dumbbell, a short handball is a short handball, a 35 metre set shot...


what a terrible quarter of football, we gave them most of those goals with absolutely braindead football, turnovers and total lack of skill. is this another game where we came in thinking we got this, we dont need to do anything. kick the first couple of goals and go into this is easy mode and just blow it all over the ground. something needs to be done about the attitude melbourne players show out there, no respect for their opponents, not manning up, not chasing, not tackling, no idea.

Way too many purple Guernsey around the stands for a Dees home game. 😬

We've never had an NT following...

It's a money trip

In our defence handball and run in to the wind is smart but you got to know when to get numbers up and play percentages

Just wondering how Freo can have such a following when they are not a big club or popular at all.

He's delusional. 

About as good as his excuse of loading the past few year to no advantage.

Everyone else can see its a midfield issue except him.

Our midfield has been okay though today. We're losing through turnover. It's very concerning that a team like Freo scores 5.2 in the first quarter. We are badly out of sync.

Can we revisit selling this game?

I get the revenue but don't we want to win games first?

Our record here is not good enough for the cash.

They’re bigger than us

Fritsch couldn’t stick a tackle on an Auskick kid today. Players are just walking past him.


21 minutes ago, whatwhat say what said:

appalling skills

Yes, perhaps that’s a by-product of valuing Effort (contested possession) over every other facet.

Watch this now become a slog and arm wrestle where we just let the game drift away.

Why not be proactive for a change, and simply attack……………you know, like we used to do when we were good?

Weve become such a predictable and boring side. Contest defence, contest defence. Where is kicking goals in our list of priorities.

Petty up one handed [censored]

Can’t see how selling this game compensates from potentially missing a top 4 position.

Freo want this win. We are playing like we don’t care. 

 

Absolutely weak effort by Fritsch

    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.
