My 3 word player analysis V Brisbane

POSTGAME: SF vs Brisbane
Nailed it. Utter stubbornness, naivity and stupidity from the club this year. What a painful second half of the season, like banging head against the wall. We were going nowhere fast and there was zero attempt to turn it around. Not one change to squad or game plan.

POSTGAME: QF vs Sydney
A shameful performance. So many moments that bordered on embarrassing. Couldn't be more disappointed with the effort, coaching and execution for a qualifying final. Very hard to see how this team beats 3 more finalists.

POSTGAME: Rd 21 vs Collingwood
Continually our coaching team and senior coach have failed to be able to make game plan adjustments during a season, if at all. As has been said a few times above, time to concede our best is no where near good enough to be a contender. 5 or 6 losses in almost identical fashion against other top 8 teams and we've changed nothing. Infuriating. I don't trust this team again.

English destroyed him tonight in terms of influence on the game

POSTGAME : Rd 19 vs Western Bulldogs
We haven't been a good team for 3 months, so this doesn't surprise at all, however it still hurts to see our season wither away to nothing after the 10 & 0 start. The May clanger was definitely a defining moment in the end but we shouldn't be in a losing position after leading by 25 odd points.

POSTGAME: Rd 12 vs Sydney
This definitely feels like I'm watching the 2020 demons rather than reigning premiers. Inconsistent, dysfunctional at times and easy to coach and score against.

POSTGAME: PF vs Geelong
A proud demon tonight. enjoy the next 2 weeks as much as we can. Hopefully a dynasty is coming and we can all celebrate together at the MCG. Gawn. Legend . All the boys well done.

GAMEDAY: Rd 19 vs Western Bulldogs
Umpires aside we are struggling big time. Very same same. Lots of players out of form. Can't score easily and defence is starting to falter
-
POSTGAME: Rd 18 vs Hawthorn
Disgraceful loss. Serious weakness in this team that may eventually rear it's head against the top teams when it counts the most. Probably cost ourselves two home finals now. Yeah the defense is ok but we can't actually win a game with offence when it's needed. Many players out there had their worst games in a Melbourne jumper.

POSTGAME: Rd 13 vs Collingwood
There's no forgiving that loss to the lowly pies. There were some glaring issues. Picking and choosing when to turn up and play the "brand" doesn't bode well. The Hollywood football of petracca and Oliver. The shambolic forward line. I'm far from convinced about this team.

POSTGAME: Rd 12 vs Brisbane
Phenomenal second half. Some scintillating ball movement and pressure lifted. McDonald petracca and Oliver fantastic
-
GAMEDAY: Rd 12 vs Brisbane
Lions a class above. Too good. We are off on pressure and our midfield is a real worry. No Oliver no melbourne. Langdon's importance to the team can't be underestimated
-
POSTGAME: Rd 11 vs Western Bulldogs
Can't recall a more well rounded and mature performance from any Melbourne team. Defensively brilliant. Enjoyed this one a lot.
-
GAMEDAY: Rd 03 vs GWS
Oliver is a petulant child. Lets hope he goes to Collingwood instead of petracca. The umpiring is pathetic. GWS simply going harder and blocking any run by creating congestion. Ugly game

POSTGAME: Practice Match vs Bulldogs
Little to enthuse

GAMEDAY: Practice Match vs Bulldogs
Painful even for a practice game. Quite a few mids missing today but the ball movement and clearance work is still some of the worst in the comp. Its still hard to see what the intent really is and It seems the players feel the same way. Baker, sparrow, harmes, spargo, Vandenberg are a big no from me. Depth is really really poor

Eddie Set to Stand Down
Great news, long time coming. My hatred for the filth may even subside a few % now.

WELCOME TO THE MELBOURNE FOOTBALL CLUB - FRASER ROSMAN
Dedinitely Choco and Yze influence

WELCOME TO THE MELBOURNE FOOTBALL CLUB - JAKE BOWEY
Definitely picked for outside smarts and skill but the problem is they both will struggle to be physically ready to have an impact next year. 67kgs is one of the lightest picks I can recall.

Oliver Rumours on Footy Classified
What a club. Cant even keep one genuine star mid in 20 years happy for longer than 4 years. The damage goodwin is doing to the club is unimaginable. Question has to be asked whether you want to hang on to a disenchanted player a year too long?

To Hell and Back
The series had some really interesting training footage and content. I enjoyed watching Burgess at work (If only Goodwin had an inch of Burgess' motivational capability). The rest of it, in particular the title, is cringe worthy. Particularly now in hindsight. The club needs to minimise the social media fluff pieces this off season. It will put the members even further offside.
