Pretty good without dominating

His best work has been in link up play between the arcs where he has found space and used the footy well in transition

Had 2 shots on goal in the first quarter, one long bomb from 55 and a second from a set shot inside 50 where he missed both

Has played pretty much exclusively as an inside mid from what I can tell but you miss stuff with the dodgy camera work

A few too many quick kicks. 
He has the ability to break tackles - just needs to try it.

Verral has no physical presence 

Yeah I've been a pretty staunch supporter but he's heading towards delist material. 

3rd year in the system and hasn't shown any improvement at all. As you say, for such a big guy he does lack that physical presence.

Edited by KC from Casey

Sure you weren’t looking at Lewis?

With that many talls they should be raffling it. Too often players are not minding their opposition - no care for their teammates. 

 

Jeeesus the skill level from our MFC players in Brown and Campbell have been atrocious so far in this last quarter.

I don't get to training so I can't comment but on bigfooty a regular Melbourne supporter who attends said in all the pressure season training he went to, goalkicking practice was completely non existent. 

Yes, the player do it on their own spare time after training but from he was saying there is a no structured training in place for this.

Get this Daz.. I was the goalkicking coach for De.La Salle and Old Melbourne grammarians after I retired and both won flags when I was there. My phys ed background worked a treat! It needs a regimented structured approach, but I reckon my methods weren't that hard to master!

Lovely work from Langers there

Let me save you the heartache, Verral will not make it. I’ve got more of a chance of making it………….

…………….now wait for him to set the world on fire in 3…..2…….1……

Baldi & Yze having an impact in this last Q

 

That score pretty much sums up the one v one today

Scores are officially nice.

Meanwhile, these commentators are reminding me of when I discovered that Robbocoholic becomes bearable if you speed up the audio to 1.5x. I think 1.25 would do for this pair.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

  • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

    The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • POSTGAME: Collingwood

    Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.
