Good synopsis, Demoniac. I think the Foxtel cameramen were disadvantaged badly by the guernsey clash(worse in the bright sunlight).

    I was at the game, and I found it a little tough to diffentiate the teams at times. Demons players wearing their - red - socks up helped.

    Not much to add to what's been said before, except that we really suffered from a lack of structure up forward. So often we just had no one to kick it to beyond the centre of the ground, and I imagine that made some of our disposal / decision-making look even worse on TV.

    Yes the clinical Kitty's clawed us until we were clueless...speaking of clueless - what about that away guernsey?

    Well done to Martin, Garland, Buckley and Valenti who all showed something.

    Strap yourselves in for a rollercoaster ride this season, we will cop the odd thumping but also pull of a some great wins, and come the end of the season we will have a much better developed list, and if thats not enough for you...

    We still have the best song and jumper [season proper that is]

    IMO we definately should have had a serious dip for the NAB Cup.

    Stringing 5 wins together should be easier that making the finals and winning the big one in the premiership season.

    Why not give the senior guys a decent hit out - afterall most of them sat on their laurels for most of last year.

    It rubs salt into the wound for me that the club traded Trapper who put in such a great effort for the Brisbane Lions up at Carrara and all of our senior players are a complete embarassment against Geelong .... :rolleyes:

    Now we still have to travel the country playing "challenge" matches in [censored] poor venues where we still risk injury to our players. :angry:

    There is almost as much prize money in the NAB Cup as winning the Grand Final and we could sure use it and the extra memberships. It has helped Geelong and Carlton recently to stay up there. Why not us ???

    As for that playing strip - what are the boffins that run our club seriously thinking ??? major embarassment all round.

    • 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.
