MM: "Putting yourself in a position to contest a mystery ball"

- what is a 'mystery ball' exactly?

Running back into a pack, eyes on the ball. You know it will hurt, but when?

do you keep going or duck out of it....

 

Great Article. Bang on the money

MM may be percieved as quite mad, but he is a very smart man, still. 

 

And thanks for Jeff...

Agree with those who bothered to read it before commenting. Good, balanced responses from Malthouse to the questions posed.

And yes, thanks for Jeffy 

 

Wont read it - he ruined carltank with his character based crap and game plan and his protege Neeld did the same at the dees.

Likewise Clayton Oliver. You don’t need to respond to every comment made against you. Especially not to an elite athlete (Damien Martyn) who has played very well at the highest level in his field.  Mick Malthouse

MM was never one to hold his tongue that often when dumped on. I would say that Clarry (who is playing in his highest level) is just as if not more elite an athlete as Martyn. Ive played both cricket and footy and for me the latter doesn't just test your courage more, it takes higher levels of fitness.

Couldn't care less what this fossil has to say. Most irrelevant opinion in football next to Mark Mclure.

Well done - made me fall off my chair

  • REPORT: Sydney

    A few weeks ago, I visited a fellow Melbourne Football Club supporter in hospital, and our conversation inevitably shifted from his health diagnosis to the well-being of our football team. Like him, Melbourne had faced challenges in recent months, but an intervention - in his case, surgery, and in the team's case, a change in game style - had brought about much improvement.  The team's professionals had altered its game style from a pedestrian and slow-moving approach, which yielded an average of merely 60 points for five winless games, to a faster and more direct style. This shift led to three consecutive wins and a strong competitive effort in the fourth game, albeit with a tired finish against Hawthorn, a strong premiership contender.  As we discussed our team's recent health improvement, I shared my observations on the changes within the team, including the refreshed style, the introduction of new young talent, such as rising stars Caleb Windsor, Harvey Langford, and Xavier Lindsay, and the rebranding of Kozzy Pickett from a small forward to a midfield machine who can still get among the goals. I also highlighted the dominance of captain Max Gawn in the ruck and the resurgence in form in a big way of midfield superstars Christian Petracca and Clayton Oliver.

  • POSTGAME: Sydney

    The Demons controlled the contest from the outset, though inaccurate kicking kept the Swans in the game until half time. But after the break, Melbourne put on the jets and blew Sydney away and the demolition job was complete.

  • CASEY: Northern Bullants

    The Casey Demons travelled to a windy Cramer Street, Preston yesterday and blew the Northern Bullants off the ground for three quarters before shutting up shop in the final term, coasting to a much-needed 71-point victory after leading by almost 15 goals at one stage. It was a pleasing performance that revived the Demons’ prospects for the 2025 season but, at the same time, very little can be taken from the game because of the weak opposition. These days, the Bullants are little more than road kill. The once proud club, situated behind the Preston Market in a now culturally diverse area, is currently facing significant financial and on-field challenges, having failed to secure a win to date in 2025.

  • GAMEDAY: Sydney

    It’s Game Day, and the Demons have a golden opportunity to build on last week’s stirring win by toppling Sydney at the MCG. A victory today would keep them firmly in the hunt for a finals spot and help them stay in touch with the pack chasing a place in the Top 8. Can the Dees make it two in a row and bring down the Swans?
