Need to get as many games into kids as possible.

Need to look for a coach with an attacking mindset.

Need to make some hard decisions. Kozzie, Clary and Petracca need to be turned into multiple first round picks, shame the bombers will get Pick 1 this year

Langford should be permanently in the middle for the rest of the year hes got something about him

Remember guys, the fitness department primed us for this week...


 

You had Djokovic just break his own record by reaching the most Masters 1000 finals in Miami (60), so we can legitimately shake our own 186 record next week considering how insipid and spineless this team is.

This isn’t even anywhere near rock bottom.

Lindsay (a rare shining light) injured, and humiliated by a mid-tier team on our home deck in our ‘response’ game.

We’re an unskilled, uninspired rabble playing boring, lifeless footy.

Anyone have any positives to share ??

Please?🙏

This was evident from last week. You can play and lose by trying then there is last week and this weeks performance.

Long season ahead. Worst part is Dons hold our first pick. They are truly laughing at us right now.

We are the whipping club of the AFL once again.

Just a filthy display by a rudderless team with zero confidence.

Why would Trac even want to stay?

Majority of the team phoning in a performance in front of a ~20k crowd when he could be on the big stage.

Who could blame him.


Essendon will get a good pick out of us come the end of the year.

We need answers by the coach and president. This is substandard.

Total dumpster fire. No composure, no chemistry, no system, no connection. It's been a long time since I've seen us look this flat and miserable on the field.

What worries me is that multiple players are going backwards really quickly. Fritsch looks lost, Rivers is totally devoid of confidence, and JVR has completely forgotten how to lead.

I didn't think things could get much worse than last week but here we are.


We’re cooked. Well and truly.

Expected a response. That was not acceptable

It’s going to be a long season

 

The only positive that can come from this game is hoping that Lindsay hasn't done his ACL.

Truly dire performance that rivals anything from the Neeld era.

He doesn't mind taking a million from the club though. What a spineless way to give up on the club that made you the star you are.

  • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

    The media has performed a complete reversal in its coverage of the Melbourne Football Club over the past month and a half. Having endured intense criticism from all quarters in the press, which continually identified new avenues for scrutiny of every aspect, both on and off the field, and prematurely speculated about the departures of coaches, players, officials, and various employees from a club that lost its first five matches and appeared out of finals contention, the narrative has suddenly shifted to one of unbridled optimism.  The Demons have won five of their last six matches, positioning themselves just one game (and a considerable amount of percentage) outside the top eight at the halfway mark of the season. They still trail the primary contenders and remain far from assured of a finals berth.

  • REPORT: Sydney

    A few weeks ago, I visited a fellow Melbourne Football Club supporter in hospital, and our conversation inevitably shifted from his health diagnosis to the well-being of our football team. Like him, Melbourne had faced challenges in recent months, but an intervention - in his case, surgery, and in the team's case, a change in game style - had brought about much improvement.  The team's professionals had altered its game style from a pedestrian and slow-moving approach, which yielded an average of merely 60 points for five winless games, to a faster and more direct style. This shift led to three consecutive wins and a strong competitive effort in the fourth game, albeit with a tired finish against Hawthorn, a strong premiership contender.  As we discussed our team's recent health improvement, I shared my observations on the changes within the team, including the refreshed style, the introduction of new young talent, such as rising stars Caleb Windsor, Harvey Langford, and Xavier Lindsay, and the rebranding of Kozzy Pickett from a small forward to a midfield machine who can still get among the goals. I also highlighted the dominance of captain Max Gawn in the ruck and the resurgence in form in a big way of midfield superstars Christian Petracca and Clayton Oliver.

  • POSTGAME: Sydney

    The Demons controlled the contest from the outset, though inaccurate kicking kept the Swans in the game until half time. But after the break, Melbourne put on the jets and blew Sydney away and the demolition job was complete.

  • CASEY: Northern Bullants

    The Casey Demons travelled to a windy Cramer Street, Preston yesterday and blew the Northern Bullants off the ground for three quarters before shutting up shop in the final term, coasting to a much-needed 71-point victory after leading by almost 15 goals at one stage. It was a pleasing performance that revived the Demons’ prospects for the 2025 season but, at the same time, very little can be taken from the game because of the weak opposition. These days, the Bullants are little more than road kill. The once proud club, situated behind the Preston Market in a now culturally diverse area, is currently facing significant financial and on-field challenges, having failed to secure a win to date in 2025.
