in Melbourne Demons

My favourite was during the first qtr "This contest could go one of two ways."

Straight to the 'Commentary Gems' thread with that one!

    Dwayne is hard to listen to at the best of times, his love of Port Adelaide and Geelong is equal only to his hatred of Melbourne.

    Today, you could hear the tears rolling down his cheeks and the croak in his voice with every Melbourne goal got louder and louder. After Garlett kicked one of his many goals he proclaimed "dagger to the heart!" He was of course referring to himself.

    Well Dwayne, to show there are no hard feelings despite all this I will be sending you a small gift in the mail.

    Thats a funny lookin "up yours" finger Client!

    Not sure he will get it though.

    Dwayne is no good. That's agreed. In fact he's toxic.

    But Sandy Roberts, who is normally inoffensive even if he cannot differentiate between Gawn and Spencer, got up my nose with his repeated under playing of Watts' efforts.

    Watts' handpass sets up a goal - Roberts says "he can't get through".

    Watts sends a smart centering kick to the top of the goal square and Neal-Bullen goals - Roberts calls it as Watts missing.

    It was repeated and it was as if he was determined to maintain a negative story about a player because that's what he thinks "the story" is about Watts. Just like, when SJ received a soft 50m penalty for the Cats' first goal Sandy and others start salivating about SJ kicking eight! (Good luck with that.)

    As I am still guttered by the loss to the Sainters, I was not going to watch the Geelong game.

    Dam you Demonlanders as I now have to watch the game so I can also mock a guy called Dwanye the Pain!

    As Melbourne FC haters should all be mocked and humiliated. Its our civic duty.

    I think the biggedt stuff up was on Channel Nine last night saying that the Cats beat Melbourne in Corey Enrights 3ooth game. Did we lose the protest ???

    The amount of Ex Footballers turned "expert" commentators is alarming.

    Queens Birthday Match:

    Example 1.

    Players walking to position -

    Tim Watson "Jetta going to Elliot, that's surprising. I thought Garlett would have."

    Example 2

    Brayshaw avoids Varcoe and kicks a goal on none preferred.

    Nick Maxwell "Varcoe needs to be better there, he should have known Brayshaw was a left footer"

    'On the couch' has been ruined by Brown and Dunstall. The viewer wants to be educated with strong & controversial views. Rather than "back in my day Jase"

    In saying that, I'm looking forward to watching them all tonight.

    Dunstall is great. Don't mind Brown either. The rest are hopeless though.

  • Quote

    Jonathan Brown is setting a dangerous precedent of being constructive, informed, even handed and even encouraging of the dees. Surely that's not permissible.

  • Quote

    Brown is good game day, but on the couch and pre games etc, he is very wooden and over thinks things.

    Game day he just speaks about what is going on.

    I've hated figjam for a considerable time so it's comforting to know I'm not alone. The thing about Dwayne is you just know he'd be a prize fockhead outside of his job.

    He probably said Garland.

    The Maxwell one sounds very Maxwell-like though. Against the Doggies when Fitzpatrick played a blinder he said "The MCC are chanting Fitzgerald's name. Fitzy Fitzy"

    3 minutes in to the second half

    "cut off by Enright! It's shaping as a nice story for Enright, just playing their way back in, with him being one of the stars, he's been good again today..although...he's just given it away to Howe"

    the disappointed fall in Dwayne's voice matched the sigh of the crowd

    beautiful

    • PODCAST: 2026 Season Preview

      The boys previewed the 2026 Season sharing their early impressions of the new coach, the new players, observations from preseason training, and what they've made of the new game style. They also look ahead to the season with their predictions, the players they expect to rise, their expectations for the team, and what they see as a realistic pass mark for Melbourne in 2026.

    • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

      When the Demons blew their 46-point lead at Marvel Stadium in Round 20 last year, the fallout was enormous. Like an event straight out of a Shakespearean tragedy, Melbourne’s final-quarter collapse left fans reeling and the club grappling with the aftermath.

    • PREGAME: St. Kilda

      With just over two weeks until their opening match of the 2026 AFL Premiership season, the Demons are already well on the path to redemption and have the Saints firmly in their sights ahead of their mid-March clash at the MCG. What do you think the team will look like when they run out on to the G?

    • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

      Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.

    • REPORT: Richmond

      Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.
