Go Dees!!

The only good thing that can happen from here is no long term injuries. What a disappointing debacle!!!

Slow ball movement = no space up the ground = turnovers = mounting scores against = lose the game.

Such BAD basic skills from players who are the supposed elite of a game! It's really quite unbelievable!!

Not a lot of dare being shown by the boys right now. That play criss crossing across the half back line was just what Hawthorn did against us early last year.....and they were rubbish at that time!

Thanks, mate. (TOP goal Nibbler!)

Can you post your video here, please Action?

You are all BOG's today for turning up and seeing it through in the bad weather, guys. Thanks for your efforts!

Thanks for the explanation, folks. Much appreciated! Go Dees!!

I am just wondering how the AFL signed off on the Luke Jackson trade. Hopefully a fellow Demonlander can enlighten me. It's been all over the AFL website that Port Adelaide's early mooted offer of their future 1st Round pick & future 2nd Round pick be a part of the potential "Mega Trade" that would've seen JHF get to Port. However the AFL knocked it back because a club is not allowed to trade it's future 1st Round pick & any of it's future 2nd, 3rd, or 4th Round picks at the same time. Likewise, if a club trades a future 2nd, 3rd or 4th round pick they would have to hang on to their future 1st Round pick. (That's as I understand the rules) So.....how did we get Fremantle's future 1st Round AND future 2nd Round pick in the deal for Jacko?

74 points.....okay, could've been better.....Harmsey's hammy is a bummer, but all in all - the day could've been worse! (I can't remember the last time Melbourne supporters were dissatisfied with a 74 point win!) 🤣

Very average performance so far against poor opposition. The only positive that can now come from this game is if we manage to get through injury free. 🤞🤞🤞

VERY low percentage entries into forward 50 by Melbourne. We are playing like Prima Donnas!

How many Melbourne players are slipping over?......wrong boots?

On paper this should be a massacre.......however we don't usually inflict too many 10 to 15 goal losses on our opposition - no matter how much they are struggling. This is a chance for the boys to show how ruthless they can really be. I hope they take it! Anything between a 10 to 15 goal win (& no injuries!) would be acceptable. (But it will probably work out to less than 5 goals!) 😏

That was a deplorable exhibition of AFL football up to half time. At least after half time our scoring ratio (goals v points) improved. A better opposition would've buried us by half time on the basic skill errors we made. I know 4 points is 4 points etc......but some big improvements are needed in a lot of basic areas. We almost need a loss to wake some of our guys up and remind them that the execution of basic skills - like taking an uncontested mark instead of dropping it & turning it over - is a minimum requirement to stay in the team! Very pleased for the Weid.....but he should've kicked 6!
