Match Day Thread: Melbourne v. West Coast

Which team is kicking with the wind????

No wind to speak of. It is 25 deg and calm, perfect. Weather would be having no impact

39 to 46 missing a fair few chances in front of goal. Sculls, Davey and Pettard have just missed very kickable goals.

Disapointing effort from all three.


 

Great clearance from Trengove, he's getting a bit of the ball. Pettard is looking good also.

yep it is. seen it all too often, people who constantly hurt/ strain/ twinge their hammies means that they can never live up to their potential.

Yeah. Davey, Buckley and Richo good examples of players who never lived up to their potential with dodgy hammies.

Relax turbo. You're not a doctor, stop acting like one.


3.3 for the 2nd quater. Making me eat my words. Go dee's

Great pressure from maric to set up a goal for bate. Dees 7.9.51 WCE 8.5.53

Bugger, I missed that.

Career is stuffed now. over a year out with hammies means he will most probably continue to do them the rest of his career.

He actually missed the majority of 2009 because he tore the meniscus in his knee, but don't let that get in the way of some good hysteria.

I'm far from worried.

A lot of players coming back from injury get little scares and pull the pin at the smallest inkling of tightness.

Wona still has heaps of time up his sleeve.

On a positive note, it's good to hear about young Fitzy and Gizza's efforts for Casey.

Let's all relax, as far as i can see he made no medical prognosis.

Was surprised when Colby talked Maric up and likened him to Missy Higgins.

Can't say I disagree, albeit Addam has a long way to go yet.

Who is in our best so far

Agree- seemed to have been playing well today also- agree earlier post where you stated - good to see Fitzy & Gysberts played well for Casey- seems Newton & Healey did also.

I'm perfectly relaxed. You need to take another look at his post.

Seems like a kind of high scoring game. I saw 50 plus on either side and was thinking it'd be 3/4 time or something, especially at a local ground.

The scoring shots, and presumably the inside fifties, is something to be encouraged about.

 

Beautiful day. Big crowd. Took 1/2 hour to get in once I turned off the Hwy. Dees playing OK. Finshing the usual problem. Stoush after 1/2 time siren Warnock Petter Jamar Frawley all had a good wrestle. Hope there are no fines!Bennell Dunn Jamar playing well. Thought Hughes was having a crack has got pace.

On a positive note, it's good to hear about young Fitzy and Gizza's efforts for Casey.

....... and Garland in the half that he played!

  • PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

    With both sides precariously positioned ahead of the run home to the finals, only one team involved in Sunday’s clash at the Adelaide Oval between the Power and the Demons will remain a contender when it’s over.  On current form, that one team has to be Melbourne which narrowly missed out on defeating the competition’s power house Collingwood on King's Birthday and also recently overpowered both 2024 Grand Finalists. Conversely, Port Adelaide snapped out of a four-game losing streak with a win against the Giants in Canberra. Although they will be rejuvenated following that victory, their performances during that run of losses were sub par and resulted in some embarrassing blow out defeats.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

  • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

    The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?
