In Petty's defense, his kicking is no worse than the rest of our key backs, and could probably includes smalls as well at the moment. I'm still in the camp of trying JVR back, he needs to improve his reading of ball, seems to always be running under flight when playing forward.

Yep, and lost too a team that was 0-17. Wouldn't expect any player to be happy with performance be it in best or not

I'm not here to bag Max, I'm saying 28 hit outs and 24 disposals, how many were score involvements. Every other club is trying 2 rucks, we have a young guy in form in 2's so why not bring him in and throw something different at opposition. Like I said Max can play unbelievable football, but not every week (case in point today !!) So we just except that when Max is off we dish up that [censored], or what happens when he retires ??? In position we are this year and probably next, have to be looking past current champions. Just my point of view and in no way do I understate what they have done and are doing !!!

Nope, I hold our professional, well paid footballers to account every week, too pick and choose is the very reason why we are Melbourne. We are not chance next week on today's effort.

When Tassie come in we should ask for gather round bye.

Yep, they haven't lost to a 0-17 record side, and don't give weak effort like we did today, 40 odd points against freo is acceptable but not to ****house bombers

Melbourne & Tottenham I thought I was alone !!

Probably cos 75% of his hit outs and disposals go to opposition !!

What is happening with Harvey, i had him pegged as our next great hope. 2nd yr blues maybe ??

He looked better when moved forward in 2nd half. Other point should be is where did Van Rooyen go after and 1 . Must of already hit performance base in this year's contract

Not sure Culley has been seen to go missing so far this year

Time to play Max Heath. Other Max, yes is GOAT, but makes us so predictable, he cannot carry us every week. Backline needs change, need to get better ball users. Teams sag off Lever and tmac hoping ball goes to them, there kicking is F grade level

Pickett - 1,2,3,4 Petty - 2 Qtrs Rest of team - putrid performance Gawn beaten by 2 VFL players today, cant be great every week, and definitely cant carry us , give him a chop out. #Max Heath

47 yrs a supporter. And I knew we would get beat. Just happens too often, that we lose these type of games. Just play all the kids and get games into them. Our backline has absolutely no skill by foot, teams just sit off lever, McDonald and co. Knowing they will just butchers ball.

Bit harsh, probably only one who can hold head high

Tmac horrible, too old to be playing every week, been out marked by kids. Good servant too club, but don't see how it helps us long term, especially when we get flogged by ****less side in comp

Too many melbourne players happy to kick off ground today, whereas Essendon putting head over ball and winning contest. Been flogged in contest today

Smacked by a team that has lostc17 in a row

Blinman will say we were loading 🤣🤣🤣

Scoreboard tells different story Given up

Reality check Still bottom 4 side. This is disgrace Undoes anything that we've done in 1stv4 weeks

I think we should try Roo at centre half back, runs under ball way too much to be a forward.

Well done dees Admit i was quick to call couple of our stars. But against good sides 1/2 game of brilliant play won't cut it !! 2nd note- advertising post on demonland is #@$$

Fumble, fumble fumble!!!

Anyone watching practice match vs Norf and wonder why we are playing 1 ruck ?? Max Heath deserve the opportunity to be playing. I understand Max Gawn is a legend, but in this day we need to show unpredictable football. Just a thought. We are where we belong unless we change and just trying to move ball quick, when we clearly aren't skilled enough is not good enough
