AT LEAST SOME ONE IS STEPPING UP

BROCK MCCLEAN U R A GUN

LOOK HE TACKLES JONATHAN BROWN AND ITS HOLDING THE BALL

 

With this many injuries we can't afford to give Davey a week or so off (tribunal might do it for us though). Make him work hard to get back into form I say. Maybe chuck him at half back and get some run.

Indeed - it doesn't look like we'll have any choice in terms of him missing a couple.

Needs to give us a bit of a spark - a couple of goals in this term would be nice.

I missed who captined the club today, but isnt mcdonald and mclean the only 2 from the leadership group in the side?

if so surely it would be chook as juinor captained last week.



wasnt ppl saying that brown needed to be dropped

i rest my case

His disposal hasn't been great as normal, however he will be 32 next year, I rest my case.

Half time report:

- Junior captain

- Melbourne finally manning-up, still can't deliver the ball forward

- Robbo getting belted

- We're getting spanked in the clearances... AGAIN!

- Frawley very good

- McLean getting free and finding the ball, good signs - 17 possessions so far

- Garland is very quick for his size

- Why isn't Newton at FF?

- Carroll doing a good job on Brown, with the help of the midfield

- We are terrible!

Oh, and I love Jonathan Brown! :wub:

obviously a poor scoreline but theyre having a dip - this is the worst side on paper the MFC has put on the park for a very long time

Agree with that all jaded, i would put bate a FF.

Buckley has found it harder this week, cneeds to lift


obviously a poor scoreline but theyre having a dip - this is the worst side on paper the MFC has put on the park for a very long time

I'd argue our worst since 1997.

There is no experience in the vital areas. Our defence is make-shift at best, and we have no real midfield rotations.

It's a very young side, which is why it looks quite bad.

But when you think about it, the majority of these players should represent our club for years to come.

Apart from Brown, Ward, Bizzell, Junior and White, the rest of the squad has another 50-200 games left in them!

Our biggest issue is that without Bell and Rivers, we really struggle down back.

Frawley is doing a very good job so far, but Carroll is again fighting out of his weight/height division.

I'd argue our worst since 1997.

There is no experience in the vital areas. Our defence is make-shift at best, and we have no real midfield rotations.

Id go back further...lol

I have to keep reminding myself of this!! Who does Brisbane have out? I can't think!!

Frawley doing a good job again. Looks like Danners faith was well placed.

  • 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.
