Why the [censored] would we sub kolt.

Sparrow and chandler have been 100000% worse 

Zero tackles given his role might have something to do with it.

Because they play the same role

Why are they all unmanned so often in their forward 50?

Ok we are down in the ruck but why so poor in defensive effort today??

You can't defend so many horrid turnovers in bad spots.

Sparrow needs to be dropped for Laurie.  Too slow and badly out of form for months now.

Is Petty worth anything as a trade now??

Even a packet of Twisties?

I'd even take Chicken Twisties

Yes the 2023 off season not looking good at all decision wise by our off-field team.

Lever is our Darcy Moore -  just wants to lay off and can’t defend a man…

can’t believe we didn’t pick a ruck - either stupidity or arrogance

Hubris. We got away with it in the wet against a B grade ruck combo but on a dry-ish deck against one of the best if not the best ruck combos in the league it was always going to bite us.

You can say "oh yeah a VFL ruck is going to be the difference in a 10 goal loss" but it just gave us no chance, being on the back foot from the get go, unable to win a clearance and the ball locked in their forward line for a large portion of the game.

Coaching clinic by Longmuir today. Utterly disgraceful effort by the coaching team. Major changes needed.

Hawks deserve to be ahead of us. Been sensational for weeks

They will be by the end of this. 

Is Melksham even playing?

He should have been subbed off rather than the Kolt

This is going to get very ugly now 

100 point loss on the cards

FFS we won a Flag on this ground…

Why would you start Salem in the middle instead of Rivers??

Rivers is a mile ahead in the middle.  SG has seriously lost the plot this season for mine.

Ahhh because we are 6 goals down and need a change. Rivers was slow and lazy in the middle today. He wasn’t dominating.

Rivers has improved the backline. Salem has been more involved in the middle.

If we had 2 Rivers we’d just play both of them.


5 minutes of sustained effort  wow

Hope you don’t pull a muscle Dees

Also allowed too many easy around ground relief marks from Darcy.

A two meter tall competitor just might get a few more of those to ground and give you a 50/50 chance.

Especially up around the wing where a ground ball win can often result in a shot on goal.

How wasn’t that 50 against the “athlete”

  • 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.
