WELL DONE DEES

PAST THE TEST OF NOT LOSING TO ANY BUM TEAMS FOR THE LAST 4 WEEKS.

THE NEXT 3 WEEKS ARE A TOUGHER TEST BUT I'M SURE WE WILL PASS IT WITH FLYING COLOURS.

GO THE MIGHTY DEES

    I was constantly surprised as how easily Lever would spin out of tackles, sometimes amongst 3 Carlscum players.

    ... maybe a forward inside that skin.

    would love it if he was also capable to swing forward, when warranted.

    What a game that was. Even contribution across the field. Viney was pretty ineffective but will be much better for the run. For those saying that Hogan didn’t impact the game, I must insist that you look at our goals again. He must have directly assisted 4-5 which is a ridiculous number. 

    He has become a supreme team player this year. Last year really transformed his from a boy to a man. Our best player wth Max so far this year.

    We have momentum now. It’s a 50/50 game against Adelaide next week, win and we really set ourselves up for a good year.

     

    Next match against the Crows is a big ask, after a month of wins.  We are still a little bit underdone yet, but hopefully Viney will be better for the run.

    I can't see any changes from this lineup, unless there are injuries.

    For some reason I’ve always been suspicious he’d go somewhere, I did think Collingwood and also Carlton. Don’t think his wife would let him again though!

    Even wifey wouldn't mind 2 mill a year :)

    Wonderful win ... we beat the four teams that we were expected to beat but what was good was that we are demonstrably improving as a team.

    Hogan playing up the ground together with the purple patch being enjoyed by Gus Brayshaw has been wonderful to watch. Fritsch seems to be growing in confidence by the week. Kudos of course to so many others including Lever and Tom Mac who have contributed to the last four wins.

    Lots to like and I will be disappointed if we cannot win the next three and turn at the bye at 8-3.

    Go Dees

    The QB game could be a 85k crowd if Pies win the next two. (mind you..hope they lose both).

    ANB lost his grandad, hence the armband. Did him proud. Played some sort of game today. His kicking was excellent!

    Very timely comment.  Mitch Robinson just took a gutsy mark for Brisbane (who are smashing the Dorks!!)

    Robinson may have uttered the words; but have no doubt, it is what Carlton thinks about us...  narcissistic plonks.

    Lever reads the play beautifully and is the best field kick in the team. Worth every dollar.

    The quite fair criticism of our side is that they lost matches they should have won and that messed us up in September last year. We are now winning those games so we’ll done to everybody at the club.

    Geez Gus was good today. 

    24 possessions and 12 tackles. That’s 12 tackles what a great effort. 

    Keep it up.

    Re Max going over the mark, I didn't quite catch it, but I thought he just jumped leaning forward and his feet did not go over the mark even when he landed.   If that is right I'm surprised that the rule prohibits that.

    You will amazed to learn (ie, won't be amazed) that the rules do not say ANYTHING AT ALL about this situation.

    16.3.2  Encroaching The Mark while Player is Kicking for Goal
    If the Player standing The Mark encroaches The Mark whilst a Player is in the act of Kicking for Goal, the following shall apply:
          (a)  if a Goal is Kicked, the field Umpire shall signal ‘All Clear’ and a Goal shall be recorded; and
          (b)  if a Goal is not Kicked, the Player may elect to take another Kick, in which case the Player shall also be awarded a Fifty-Metre Penalty.

    And what is "encroaching"? Not defined. Rules are silent.

     

    The umps are refereeing the game to a set of rules that exist only in someone's head.

    I got so accustomed to the theme of today, I turned away in the last quarter as I drank my pint in the MCC and laughed without a care in the world, like I was a Hawthorn supporter...

      A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.

    • GAMEDAY: Fremantle

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons return to the MCG wounded, undermanned and desperate. Still searching for their first win of the season, Melbourne faces a daunting task against the Fremantle Dockers. With key pillars missing at both ends of the ground, the Dees must find a way to rise above the adversity and ignite their season before it slips way beyond reach. Will today be the spark that turns it all around, or are we staring down the barrel of a 0–6 start?

    • PREVIEW: Fremantle

      A month is a long time in AFL football. The proof of this is in the current state of the two teams contesting against each other early this Saturday afternoon at the MCG. It’s hard to fathom that when Melbourne and Fremantle kicked off the 2025 season, the former looked like being a major player in this year’s competition after it came close to beating one of the favourites in the GWS Giants while the latter was smashed by Geelong to the tune of 78 points and looked like rubbish. Fast forward to today and the Demons are low on confidence and appear panic stricken as their winless streak heads towards an even half dozen and pressure mounts on the coach and team leadership.  Meanwhile, the Dockers have recovered their composure and now sit in the top eight. They are definitely on the up and up and look most likely winners this weekend against a team which they have recently dominated and which struggles to find enough passages to the goals to trouble the scorers. And with that, Fremantle will head to the MCG, feeling very good about itself after demolishing Richmond in the Barossa Valley with Josh Treacy coming off a six goal haul and facing up to a Melbourne defence already without Jake Lever and a shaky Steven May needing to pass a fitness test just to make it onto the field of play.
