    Very proud of the effort so far. Viney just insane. Nobody takes Melbourne being attacked more personally than Jack!

    The boys are playing with passion, giving their all and are in front. What more can a supporter ask for?

    Seriously slow and lazy, has to decide over summer if he wants to be an afl player again. The concern is to get him fit he might have to risk doing the hammy again and then he’s stuffed. 

    Agree with all but one word - no way is Salo lazy

    Viney and Max playing very well. Turner and Petty also looking good up forward. 
     

    Nibbler and Rivers having games to forget. Rivers has picked up a few possessions but has butchered the ball. Both need to lift.

    you reckon he is out there not giving 100%?

    Wow. 

    I think he’s going at about 70% of what’s needed.

    Whether he’s lazy, unfit or or just doesn’t have any more capacity doesn’t really matter.


    The boys are having a dip. There's a win here if they can keep this up in the second half

    Captain Viney flying the flag today.

    Sending a message to all, he's staying and he'll fix our leadership group.

    Join him or leave.

    1 handball to half time?  

    Prior to the last round against the Power when he was very good, he played three poor games in a row. Today's he looks off as well.

     

    I have a secret that I must reveal:

    I love Jack Viney ❤️

    Yeah we’re making some mistakes but I am actually really enjoying how we are playing today. Max and JV have been fantastic, Turner and Petty pretty good and I think Howes has also been pretty good. 

    It would be fantastic to pull away in the 3rd Quarter 

    After Halftime has been a slogfest this Season

    well as you have no [censored] idea how about you don’t call him lazy , not trying, lacking leadership?

    Viney sent a big msg flexing the guns after his set shot. He ain’t [censored] leaving Angry Leonardo Dicaprio GIF

    The show goes on!

    It’s either a coincidence or he’s doing too much, surround by new players, out of position. He’s having a dip. Anyone suggesting otherwise is mental 

    Stop giving him the benefit of the doubt. By playing him we risk injuring him anyway & there goes any trade value. Imagine if he does an ACL. Will get nothing for him. We’ve known for a whole month. Would much rather get games into Kynan Brown.

    While Missing Trac Clarry and May, 3 of our best 5 players. 
    But no doubt supporters will still complain because nothing bring Melbourne fans more joy than complaining.

    See sawing affair. GC have missed some easy shots but we've looked more dangerous inside 50.

    Turner having a great game in the forward line. Viney ferocious. 

    Pickett needs to get involved if we're going to hold on.

    So just sit our fittest player on the sideline when half our team doesn’t run? It’s stupid. Any of the 23 out there could get injured and impact our plans for next year and their summer. You have to play someone so it may as well be one of our better players, regardless of his plans for next year.

    Kynan Brown is a battling skinny kid who does not need afl games yet. If he name was Kynan Smith he probably wouldn’t be on an afl list and/or no one would care that he’s in the VFL.

    • POSTGAME: Essendon

      Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?

    • PREVIEW: Essendon

      As the focus of the AFL moves exclusively to South Australia for Gather Round, the question is raised as to what are we going to get from the  Melbourne Football Club this weekend? Will it be a repeat of the slop fest of the last three weeks that have seen the team score a measly 174 points and concede 310 or will a return to the City of Churches and the scene where they performed at their best in 2024 act as a wakeup call and bring them out of their early season reverie?  Or will the sleepy Dees treat their fans to a reenactment of their lazy effort from the first Gather Round of two years ago when they allowed the Bombers to trample all over them on a soggy and wet Adelaide Oval? The two examples from above tell us how fickle form can be in football. Last year, a committed group of players turned up in Adelaide with a businesslike mindset. They had a plan, went in confidently and hard for the football and kicked winning scores against both home teams in a difficult environment for visitors. And they repeated that sort of effort later in the season when they played Essendon at the MCG.
