5 days rest? We get 9 days

Brain fade, thought QB was Friday not Monday!

 

Dermie giving no credit to Melbourne again. Port have played like millionaires.
 

Grimes has no brain stupid footballer sub him !

Matty Jones playing like he's possessed.


Grimes has no brain stupid footballer sub him !

He is lacking intensity both at the ball and when he has the ball. A real liability today unless he can switch on.

Salem and Tyson for a kid that had 0 possessions last week

Thanks GWS!!
 

Jack Grimes!!! How can u be so poor with decisions??? Its not even under pressure. He should not be captain.


Grimes and Terlich , please have a rest , do some weeks in the two's , you don't deserve it, you are very bad at disposal

Grimes, what an absolute liability. Right at the end there, I said tongue in cheek watch Grimes turn this into another Port goal... and he nearly bloody did!

Lucky we have Salem, Tyson and The Pedotrain playing like absolute legends.

The only way I could've been happier with that quarter was if a certain co-captain hadn't turned over a simple kick. I really would've liked us to press the momentum right at the end as well but I understand they wanted to preserve the score line. It really could've been all squared at half time though!

Massive man crush on Salem and Tyson!

Salem - class and coolness under pressure. THe ability to hit up that kick and keep his cool, we have something special here.

Matty Jones playing like he's possessed.

He's been brilliant. Again.


Can you imagine how much better we'd be as a team without Terlich and Grimes constantly making idiotic mistakes? We'd easily be in front by now.

Far out. Impressive effort by the other 16 to pick up the slack.

Grimes decision making and disposal is pathetic. he is constantly delivering the ball to the opposition or to players under pressure. not good enough. needs to lift big time. as for the rest of the team well done, we have a chance if we can just eliminate these stupid turnovers aka Grimes and Terlich's we have a chance. JHK needs to think a bit more about what he is doing we had momentum and the wind and we kicked it back and forth until we turned it over. Need to go down the line if in doubt, trust our guys will fight for it or try to get it out of bounds so we can reset.

The boys are playing as a team. Loving Matt Jones today and some very clever plays by Watts, Salem and Bail.

Pedo also having another strong game

Unbelievable half from us. Hard to see how I can walk away from this match disappointed.

Whatever happens, and I expect us to lose, we can be so proud of this effort.

Roos too did well to adjust our set up after quarter time.

We still make silly decisions and turn it over, but the midfield is an 800% improvement on last year, as is the effort and intensity.

Keep it going in the second half and we can all be incredibly happy.

One hundred point margin coming up I fear.

At risk of being cited by the MRP ---- BUMP !!!

Half time.


Was a great quarter except for grimes, M Jones is playing a blinder best game for the club come on dees !!!

 

I'm glad the Grimes reality has finally caught on.

Dumbest bloke we've had on the field in some time. He'd be last picked for mine.

Not to mentioned he's now even turned timid at the contest, always slowing down before he gets to the ball.

I love watching this team, yet Grimes is infuriating me and dominating my thoughts.

...anyway... The Jetta. Most improved? Giving everyone's love child a bath.

Pedo. Most improved? Marks everything.

Dunn. Most improved? Mr reliable.

See the theme here?

Last year this game would have been over 40 minutes ago, this year we fight like dogs.

Would be in front had they not gotten 2 BS goals.

Won't be surprised if we fall off in the last half. But I won't be surprised if we win either.

Roos is some bloke.

  • PREVIEW: West Coast

    It was bad enough that the Melbourne Football Club created yet another humiliating scenario inside its wretched season at Marvel Stadium last Sunday, but the final insult is that it has been commanded to return to the scene of the crime to inflict further punishment on its fans this week. Incidentally, if this match preview, of a game that promises to be one of the most unattractive fixtures in the history of the game, happens to cut out of your computer screen three quarters of the way through, it’s no coincidence. I’ll be mirroring the Demons’ lacklustre effort against St Kilda from last Sunday when they conceded the largest last quarter turnaround for victory in the history of the game.

  • REPORT: St. Kilda

    When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.

  • CASEY: Sandringham

    The Casey Demons rebounded from a sluggish start to manufacture a decisive win against Sandringham in the final showdown, culminating a quarter century of intense rivalry between the fluctuating alignments of teams affiliated with AFL clubs Melbourne and St Kilda, as the Saints and the Zebras prepare to forge independent paths in 2026. After conceding three of the first four goals of the match, the Demons went on a goal kicking rampage instigated by the winning ruck combination of Tom Campbell with 26 hitouts, 26 disposals and 13 clearances and his apprentice Will Verrall who contributed 20 hitouts. This gave first use of the ball to the likes of Jack Billings, Bayley Laurie, Riley Bonner and Koltyn Tholstrup who was impressive early. By the first break they had added seven goals and took a strong grip on the game. The Demons were well served up forward early by Mitch Hardie and, as the game progressed, Harry Sharp proved a menace with a five goal performance. Emerging young forwards Matthew Jefferson and Luker Kentfield kicked two each but the former let himself down with some poor kicking for goal.
    Young draft talent Will Duursma showed the depth of his talent and looks well out of reach for Melbourne this year. Kalani White was used sparingly and had a brief but uneventful stint in the ruck.

    The Demons return to the scene of the crime on Saturday to face the wooden spooners the Eagles at the Docklands. Who comes in and who goes out? Like moving deck chairs on the Titanic.
