Fumbling early. Can the skipper take the ball with one grab? 3 goals down already. Thumping looking ominous.

Looks like he is really battling at the minute, doesn't look like it does he.

Fantastic fwd pressure results in a turn over... Davey has a running shot in heaps of space.... point. Newton all on his own in the goal square.

Jurrah's 1st instinct is to look for the hand off which has been mentioned numerous times but is still so pleasing to see.

Bennell runs out of the way of White, luckly we end up winning a free for holding the ball against White. Davey in everything, another inside 50 for him.

Moloney toe pokes in our 1st goal.

End of the 1st couldn't really come quick enough for a battling MFC side. Davey is playing well daylight the rest.

Melbourne v Sydney, Quarter Time 1.2.8 - 3.4.22

Inside 50's 7-16 Swans way.

Fark me! Start of the 2nd... Jolly crumbs his own ruck tap, runs through 3 MFC players before giving off to a team-mate. Jolly then easily taps it to a Swans player from the resulting throw in, Swans easy goal.....

Miller shot on goal after winning MFC won a contested ball. Point....

Jurrah chases really hard putting pressure on Shaw who puts it out on full.... Bomb inside 50 NEWTON nice mark.... what do you think he does with the kick folks... point from right in front 35-40 out

Newts doesn't get enough of it, he works hard to get the limited ball he does then can not convert.

Newton is smashing the bejeezus out of some of the Swans though... Wonder what DB said to him?

Posted

Newts then cleans out O'Keefe nicely.

All Dees the last 8 mins, but can not put any scoreboard pressure on.

JURRAAAHHH really nice one handed mark (he must have been practicing this from his earlier one handed drop). GOAL.

Posted

Cheney leads O'Loughlin to the ball taking easy mark in front, plays on and gets run down, lucky he was driven face first. In the back.

Bate bombs it into fwd 50.... easily cut off.

Goodes all on his own on 50. Stef punches it through for point.

Score:

16 to 29

Davey playing very well and Jurrah to an extent. The rest pppfffftttttt.

McKenzie takes easy mark then has his kick smothered. Davey recovers, glides through 3 swans and finds Moloney. Moloney then hospitals a handball to Jonesy, turn over...

Morton doing an ok job on Goodes.

Bruce a terrible turn over. Grundy is smashing the ginger out of Bate. 14 possies across centre half back so far....

Whoever teaches footskills at the MFC needs to be taken outside and shot.

Gee... might have to rest Jurrah next week ;)

If it wasn't for Jurrah, I'd poke both my eyes out with a stick.

Worst game I have seen since we played Adelaide.

Thank god I want us to lose, because honestly we are just so bad when we go forward.

Newton is horrendous. Absolutely horrendous.

Jurrah can take the rest of the year off if he's not right. He is the only one who might win us a game at the moment.

Although you gotta give Morton credit; he's doing well on Goodes (I think that experiment has backfired!)

    UP IN LIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Those who watched the 2024 Marsh AFL National Championships closely this year would not be particularly surprised that Melbourne selected Victoria Country pair Harvey Langford and Xavier Lindsay on the first night of the AFL National Draft. The two left-footed midfielders are as different as chalk and cheese but they had similar impacts in their Coates Talent League teams and in the National Championships in 2024. Their interstate side was edged out at the very end of the tournament for tea

    The Demons’ aggressive small forward who kicks goals and defends the Demons’ ball in the forward arc. When he’s on song, he’s unstoppable but he did blot his copybook with a three week suspension in the final round.

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers braved the rain and headed down to Gosch's paddock to bring you their observations from the second day of Preseason training for the 1st to 4th Year players. DITCHA'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS I attended some of the training today. Richo spoke to me and said not to believe what is in the media, as we will good this year. Jefferson and Kentfield looked big and strong.  Petty was doing all the training. Adams looked like he was in rehab.  KE
