I should be hurting more than I am

Which tells me the AFL drafting system is a joke.

I would never hope for Melbourne to lose, but I almost conceded that tonight was the perfect result for us.

We showed a bit second half, but lost by less than 2 goals.

We injured more of our backline so another win is out of the equation.

Richmond and Carlton are both more than half chances to win a couple more before the end of the year.

I'd love pick 1 and Kruezer.

AFL - fix your damned system, and make a loss to Collingwood hurt as much as it should.

    We won't finish last but Carlton have a serious fight on their hands if they think we will hand them first pick in the last round.

    Back Essendon tomorrow at the $1.67 on betfair. I absolutely double dare Carlton to throw away top pick and a priority pick and will be happy to pay good money to see them do it via a lumpy bet tomorrow. Just look at what they did a few weeks ago when they were in danger of winning - take Fev off in the last three minutes? Give me a break. Easy money here and happy to be proven wrong.

    I read an article in the paper along the same lines. I can't remember who it was, but I think it was a Carlton supporter talking about the upcoming Essendon clash.

    • 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.
