Isn’t it funny how most weeks our opposition are complete sharp shooters and never miss, we are bloody cursed when it comes to goal kicking

You gotta give up something to get something.

We have enough tall defenders to cover Disco.

I'd send him forward and see what he can bring.

We aint winning this without kicking straight from here

 

Dominating inside 50s and can't kick a goal, Turner will be moved forward with 5 minutes left with the game out of reach

Cursed - no. Just can’t be bothered working on it.

 

Too many dumb decisions, too many missed goals, too often. Agonising to watch our defence do so much right, only to have our forward play be so poor. Sparrow's kick just then - case in point.

Sparrow shocking disposal.

we can be so very annoying

1.4 for a dominant qtr.

and we’ve gone backwards on the scoreboard.

Do we want to win??

Same old story.

I’m so over watching this team kick themselves out of games. It’s boring.

Boring is one word. [censored] infuriating is another.

Is Chocco in charge of skills?

He has been bleeding us dry for years filling up his superannuation fund.

And the May-Lever dynamic duo is long gone, both way past their best.

We are where we are on the ladder because we aren’t that good. Simple. Mid range AFL team.

Because we are kicking from congested forward line and pushed out to the pockets while they are taking shots from the goal square.


So much of our game today is just not AFL standard - skills and effort

 

When are the coaches going to admit we have a serious problem with accuracy?

We are going to kiss any chance of finals goodbye because we can’t kick straight against a bog ordinary Saints side

  • 2025 Player Reviews: #7 Jack Viney

    The Demon stalwart surpassed the number of his father's appearances for the club towards the end of the season. As he approaches his thirties, his pace is inevitably slowing, and he is likely to explore alternative opportunities beyond the team's midfield.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: #8 Jake Lever

    The Demon premiership defender who has the reputation the master of intercept possessions as well as great leadership qualities managed only eight senior games this season as he battled injury and form, prompting speculation that he might be enticed to look elsewhere.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: #10 Daniel Turner

    “Disco” took his time (four seasons) but the mid-season draftee has been a shining light of Melbourne's campaign, improving to become a versatile option at either end of the ground. He has great marking skills which allows him to play as a marking target up forward or an intercepting defender down back.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: #11 Max Gawn

    The skipper delivered another outstanding season, leading the team from the front, participating in every game, and earning club champion honours, while also securing an equal record eighth All-Australian blazer as a ruckman.  Max Gawn is arguably the greatest exponent of ruck skills in the history of the game; an exceptional leader who has guided the club to a premiership, through the challenging times that followed, and now into the next phase of its storied history.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: #12 Koltyn Tholstrup 

    It was a frustrating season for the former number 13 draft selection, who failed to build momentum in his second campaign; Tholstrup played only nine games, having been omitted twice and substituted out three times. However, he demonstrated promising signs in the midfield at Casey towards the end of the season, and big things are anticipated from him in the coming years.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: #13 Clayton Oliver

    Clayton Oliver, a four-time best and fairest winner at the club, has navigated a challenging period over the past two years, marked by injuries and personal issues, but has demonstrated promising signs suggesting a return to his optimal form in 2025. He is presently contracted to the club for an additional five years, with a substantial annual salary of approximately $1.7 million in the final seasons of his agreement. All at Melbourne are eagerly anticipating his resurgence to his previous peak performance levels.
