That was shite by Bail, should have tapped that forward to Garlett

 

Siren always goes when it is in our forwarding art!
 

44 and 45 looked like Abbott and Costello just before the siren.Should have been a goal there.

how good is n jones ,lifted the whole team,go the skippper

See the shove in the back matty jones copped then?

 

if we had anyone in there besides Bail and his 1 possession wed be up by 6 goals

Come on boys bring it home


The much maligned toumpas and spencer playing some pretty good footy today I reckon. Not sure what bail or jones offer though.

Nathan jones what a game !

Let's hope we can maintain our forward efficiency. Dogs will come back in the second hal though. Can we hang tough?

Toump playing well. His opponent is struggling to stay with him

This is by far the best game Jake Spencer has played for this club. The guy has been MASSIVE!!

Pedo is soo much reliable then Dawes. He stays in for the rest of the year.

Fitzy has completely pulled down Million Dollar mans pants down.

Hogan has been simply awsome

Jones lifted in that qtr and was huge.

Who is the genius that fixed up Spencil and Fitzy ?

Spencer playing well but he is playing on Cordy

Confidence he gains will be important though


Leigh Matthews said Hogan would be a close to goal forward only. Could he be more wrong? He's doing as he pleases all over the ground.

I'd be bloody pumped if he kept it up in the second half as well. Last thing I want to see is for him to taper off and have a quiet second half.

The game passed Lethal by a decade ago. The stuff his churns out has little relevance these days.

Our intensity is where it should be. The Dogs don't like it contested and they're fumbling under pressure. And our forwards look more dangerous than theirs.

Toumpas, Watts and Spencer have all lifted which is great. Unfortunately Bail has not.

Dunn has reverted to finger pointing which is disappointing but overall our senior players are putting in and pressuring.

We deserve this lead, so far we're the better side.


Watts pleasing (see watt I did there?) is that our worst aren't in the team in a week or three when Viney Salem frost get back...

Wonder if we will sub out one of our talls, or one of the deplorable duo of Bail and M Jones

Spencer has knocked me out.

Hit outs and providing run

Finish the job and the job is yours...!

 

We've really struggled coming out of the main break, we need to come out firing.

  • PREVIEW: North Melbourne

    Can you believe it? After a long period of years over which Melbourne has dominated in matches against North Melbourne, the Demons are looking down the barrel at two defeats at the hands of the Kangaroos in the same season. And if that eventuates, it will come hot on the heels of an identical result against the Gold Coast Suns. How have the might fallen? There is a slight difference in that North Melbourne are not yet in the same place as Gold Coast. Like Melbourne, they are currently situated in the lower half of the ladder and though they did achieve a significant upset when the teams met earlier in the season, their subsequent form has been equally unimpressive and inconsistent.

  • REPORT: Adelaide

    The atmosphere at the Melbourne Football Club at the beginning of the season was aspirational following an injury-plagued year in 2024. Coach Simon Goodwin had lofty expectations with the return of key players, the anticipated improvement from a maturing group with a few years of experience under their belts, and some exceptional young talent also joining the ranks. All of that went by the wayside as the team failed to click into action early on. It rallied briefly with a new strategy but has fallen again with five more  consecutive defeats.

  • CASEY: Coburg

    The Casey Demons returned to their home ground which was once a graveyard for opposing teams but they managed to gift the four points on offer to Coburg with yet another of their trademark displays of inaccuracy in front of goals and some undisciplined football that earned the displeasure of the umpires late in the game. The home team was welcomed by a small crowd at Casey Fields and looked right at home as it dominated the first three quarters and led for all bar the last five minutes of the game. In the end, they came away with nothing, despite winning everywhere but on the scoreboard and the free kick count.

  • PREGAME: Rd 18 vs North Melbourne

    After four weeks on the road the Demons make their long awaited return to the MCG next Sunday to play in a classic late season dead rubber against the North Melbourne Kangaroos. Who comes in and who comes out?

  • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

    The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.
