Reckon if 3 players absolutely smash the door down then they'll be in the team next week. If nothing else we need fresh legs next week, today was inexcusable.

    Think we'll find Brayshaw will play at least a couple of games in the two's.

    Agree on the other 4, but it's our defence that needs strengthening. Grimes and Garland anyone?

    can't say grimes and garland really excite me

    the backline were abysmal, but to me the error was the defensive game plan. playing consistently 20m away from your opposite number in some strange version of zone defense and at the same time positioning yourselves so far up the ground was suicide, made worse by the failure to change tactics especially in the 2nd qtr when it became obvious that this structure was failing and being exploited. The backline started to resemble witches hats but still they refused to man up and cover.

    Goal to Hullett 3.3 to 1.0. Brayshaw concussed by the ball hitting him in the face from an ANB kick. 

    ANB really wants to make the seniors

    ANB should come in next week regardless. Kid has been killing it for Casey but can't get a game. 

    Also pleeeeaaaase can we drop Lumumba and bring in an actual defender? Garland, Grimes, it's time to shine!

    Your kidding...Grimes, Garland- defenders....your judgement has not changed in 5 years...they are pathetic defenders,worse than H.

     

    play both Grimes and Garland on the wings.Give Frost a chance at playing FB or CHB.

    Is Brayshaw actually concussed? Off the ground? Done for the day?

    Brayshaw was taken to the rooms... still not sure if he will come back on. Oliver doing quite well. ANB, Michie and Garland getting regular possessions. Windy Hill is windy and wet.

    Brayshaw now out of rooms but still can't walk without support. 

    They need to put him on ice. He's already had a concussion a few weeks ago and not looked the same since. Time to give him a week or two off to get right.

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.

    • GAMEDAY: West Coast

      It's Game Day and the Demons have a chance to notch up their third consecutive win — something they haven’t done since Round 5, 2024. But to do it, they’ll need to exorcise the Demons of last year’s disastrous trip out West. Can the Dees continue their momentum, right the wrongs of that fateful clash, and take another step up the ladder on the road to redemption?

    • FEATURE: 1925

      A hundred years ago today, on 2 May 1925, Melbourne kicked off the new season with a 47 point victory over St Kilda to take top place on the VFL ladder after the opening round of the new season.  Top place was a relatively unknown position for the team then known as the “Fuchsias.” They had finished last in 1923 and rose by only one place in the following year although the final home and away round heralded a promise of things to come when they surprised the eventual premiers Essendon. That victory set the stage for more improvement and it came rapidly. In this series, I will tell the story of how the 1925 season unfolded for the Melbourne Football Club and how it made the VFL finals for the first time in a decade on the way to the ultimate triumph a year later.
