Why do players fucken stand still looking for an option after a mark? Run back 5 meters then u dont kick into the man on the friggen mark!!!

I've been ranting about this for years.

Also, we play on from marks too often, usually while under pressure forfeiting the advantage of kicking from a free kick or mark.

You can only do it if you have tatts, maybe he needs more 

Come on dees 1 more to go. We need this. Just get back to basics and stop hand balling, they are two down.  

 

If we win today it's a huge bonus and somewhat of a miracle with Stretch, Melksham, Vince,  Hunt and Hogan (understandable) all having mares so far.  And no we haven't won yet I realise....just saying

We're 9 points up with a quarter to go.

Yes a number of our senior players MUST lift, Vince, Lewis, Gawn, Pederson, Melksham, Kent, but they all have huge upside, if we barrack hard in support of them maybe they will show us their best. This is a must win game while down 5 of our best players. We just need to win.


We are out of the 8 if the Cokers win.

Not even an option MFC.

The sooner we have enough depth that Melksham and Kent aren't selected, the better.

Both crap. Don't know y Goodwin was so keen on Melksham. I'm not keen at all. At least we could always trade Kent.

With Carlton two men down, shouldn't we try and keep the game moving quickly to take advantage?

If we don't make so many mistakes I think we'll hang on

WE CAN DO THIS! CARN THE MIGHTY DEMONS!


Been listening on and off. Sounds like Tommy "Plugger" Mac is having a great day and Melksham's going to be playing for Casey next week. 

It would be completely unacceptable to lose to a bottom 4 team who are two men down for over a half of a match. 

Cmon Dees just get the job done!

Oliver amazing in close. 

TMac great up forward. 

Defence (Frost Hibberd Hunt and OMac) all solid. 

We should win this from here.  We dont have the finesse that we get from having Salem, Watts and Jones in the side but we are getting it done now. 

Really missing Watts and his kicking into the F50 - no bloody idea why but nobody else seems to be able to do it.

Vince, Lewis and Stretch could be joining him.

Seen him pull it off plenty of times. Not so much today tho.

 

Umpires have been shocking both ways. They've lost control of the game and make really bad calls.

  • 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.
