My prediction - Petracca will play an absolute blinder.

In the second half?

Been very quiet.

He's been good this year when available, surprised me haha

Is ranked No.8 this year up to this match. Had him about 28th of 36 players that played last year. Biggest improver in the team stat wise

Slightly obscure one, but loving Frost's attitude today. He's making some errors but he's taken on the backline philosophy of run at all costs and when it's mucked up he's just gone straight back about his business, no fuss, no dropping the head. Good signs for him in that way.

Matt Jones seriously looks a different player. So much cleaner with his ball use.

Leaner, stronger, smarter. Has looked good since the first pre-season game.

Hunt has 5 possessions. I think all 5 have been part of a string that led to a goal. He looked Fyfe-like kicking that goal.

Same thing happened a few weeks ago when he I was amazed he only had something like 13 possessions.

Combine those line breaking disposals with all of those defensive pressure acts, and he seems a lot more involved than his possessions suggest.

A much better quarter from Kent, but Gawn stepped up and Hunt is going to be a star. He hasn't had it lots, but he directly created two important goals in that second term.

Nathan Jones needs to stop putting team mates under pressure and kick those crucial goals.

Need more from Jesse too. 

Want a big quarter from the very clean Truck.

Dawes is killing us.

In what way is he killing us? Other players have turned it over more and in more costly ways, why single out Dawes? Because it's "fashionable"?

What about Tmac's disposal?

Great analysis champ. Thought you would have spat the dummy and promised to never post again after the first quarter.

Shocking start to the quarter 

Try turning it around this quarter and see if we can get a run on.

I wonder if Tex would be getting these with Chip on him instead of Tmac

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo. The play start time was brought forward from the initial 11am bounce, due to the high temperatures forecast.  The match sim will consist of four 25-minute qu
