Silver lining is that maybe this precipitates Goodwin's farewell?

Not sure the board has the guts but one can dream.

We'd have to miss finals for it to be considered I'd say.

 

Strange game 

 

All the talk about Petty. Fritz has contributed zero and roo 2 hit outs. Getty nothing from them and have for the last month. 

They're killing us around the stoppage and killing us around the ground. If they tighten up their possessions and keep running they will score quickly. I just can't see us winning this. We are so, so bad.

Is this a north home game? Melbourne supporters totally checked out

Does that surprise you after spending time on this site?

What happened after the siren?

There was a bit of a melee. Shame we didn't put in this much fight against Collingwood.

Not where I’m sitting. Out number 3-1. It’s just that quarter we didn’t have much to cheer about.

 

Kozzy went down to the rooms early in that quarter. He was limping a fair bit behind the play 


I hope North don't find their shooting boots or we could be in trouble

If Kozzy is going to spend time in the middle, he can't continue to avoid contested situations. He goes in one handed and is timid in contested situations. He also lowers his body as he goes into the contest to try and get a head high free, and when the opposition doesn't get sucked into giving away the free, he ends up on the floor with the ball and then rushes his disposal.

Needs to cut it out of his game if he is going to continue to get minutes in the midfield.

What started that.

That's very likely with no Petracca, I can almost put some money on us missing the 8.


Poor quarter, bodes badly for the rest of the game. Forward line have packed it in after a good first quarter 

It’s interesting that we are more than 10% down on our season average disposal efficiency.

Clean that up and we’ll be much more likely to score.

We're already in trouble 

I am not normally one to try ridiculous player shifting mid game but I'd honestly put Oliver deep in the pocket and put Kolt next to him. Shift Petty back and McDonald forward. Leave JVR in the ruck and have Gawn play defensively exclusively. Pickett on the wing and Windsor playing a defensive wing. Give Langdon more space to run. Then sub Chandler and bring on Brown to play an attacking flank role.

JVR was BOG against Collingwood

Yep we’ve been butchering it.

North’s contest work was very good that qtr. If they keep it up we’ll be done.

Thanks Mark (Neeld) 

 

Sad to see a champion like Clarry reduced to a plodding ineffective confused player. Looks totally cooked. 

Pretty poor second quarter. Good to see Rivers getting a run through the middle though. Oliver still looks  miles off being the player he was and I am not sure it’s his fitness that’s holding him back.

  • DRAFT: The Next Generation

    It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

  • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

    A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
