Apart from Selwood and Dangerfield, their midfield is very overrated. 

Wouldn't mind Duncan, Motlop, Caddy and Scott Selwood in Red and Blue

 

getting reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaalllly sick of the fellatio performed by commentators about Hodge and Selwood


How good is Dangerfield (despite the two missed set shots)!

Good thing we have the next two dangerfields in petracca and Oliver

What's with this 'Tissot' clock on the boundary fences, showing the time left in the game?

Have I missed something? Why should these two teams get a count down clock if nobody else does??

It's been in every game I've seen so far.

Right! I've watched four I think and not even noticed it... Haha

Really? I completely missed it!

Seems like a cheap advertising stunt that creates an uneven playing field.

Sounds like the AFL to me....

Well, yes. But Frawley 1 premiership. Melbourne 12.

Fix'd


I hate Hawthorn and I cannot stand the thought of another inevitable procession towards a Hawthorn flag, so I'll generally barrack for whoever their opponent is each week.

It's tough when the opponent is Geelong (and will also be tough when the opponent is Sydney).

Hawthorn, Sydney and Geelong have won 9 of the last 11 flags (add West Coast, who have the 10th of the 11, and you have four of this year's premiership contenders).

Heaven help the AFL (and the supporters of 14 or so clubs) if Hawthorn, Sydney, Geelong and West Coast make up this year's top 4.

Yeah it came up in our fourth quarter, with around 5 minutes to go.

Classic AFL "match day experience" gimmick.

Every team that won in round 1 plays a team in round 2 that lost which means it's mathematically possible for us to win next week and remain 9th.

also possible for us to be the only undefeated side and a game clear on top :roos:

You say that in Jest i hope...They certainly stood up today

Games against clubs like these i want to see Nathan Jones stand tall....

Really interesting start to the season, some beltings but some bloody good games from some teams (Dogs, Swans, Eagles). Only 3 teams kicked less than 10 goals, Dons, Pies and Freo.

Round 1 I know, but will be interesting to see how the reduced interchange hits a team like the Hawks and their older list. Delayed started after finals and some out but Cats ran over the top of them handily in the end.

  • 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.
