Can't agree with that RJay (although I detect underlying sarcasm)

Bernie's (quite legal) shirtfront on Daisy is something to behold and something you'd never see our Dom do.

Hogan, Look closer please

Hogan underrated by most, or they just don’t see, he was involved in many of the goals, he’s a gun.......

Agreed he played a better than serviceable game today, but I wish he would stop playing for free kicks. Just suck it up princess and beat them next time, it's one flaw in his game that makes me cringe.

Just having a bit of a go at 'joeboy' 'small'...

He needs new a whipping boy.


Max Gawn

What did he do to cause the 50 metre penalty? Watched it several times on replay and I am none the wiser. What did I miss?

Watching replay and reckon Hogan handpassed and passed to goalkickers at least 8 times, he played beautifully

He has been much improved with this and his body language this season, however, on 2 occasions he went back to his old ways.

The first was when he didn't get the free kick and stopped playing to complain to the umpires. It was a clear free kick but you have to play to the whistle.

The second was when Simpson was 1 on 2 or 1 on 3 and Hogan went to ground way too easily.

Hard to fault any players performance on a day like this. Very satisfying win.

Haven't seen it but on the radio broadcast (SEN) they thought the umpire had believed Gawn had stepped over the mark. The commentators talked about how Gawn took a couple of steps back and then came forward the same number of steps when McKay took the kick. However, they didn't confirm whether Gawn actually stepped over the mark or not. 

PS: The SEN early Sunday game commentary team is not bad. Gerard Whately and Peter Donegan calling the action with Adam Cooney adding interesting comments from the boundary. They also have Danny Frawley but I don't see that he adds much value. My favourite Frawley-ism of the day was when he claimed during the game that all the Melbourne  forwards had kicked at least one goal. At that time Hogan, Smith and Spargo hadn't.

he didn't step forward, but he did jump forward just as mckay kicked. was about a foot or so. there is one video sequence (side on) that clearly shows this.

if he hadn't gone over mckay would still have kicked into him but

I actually think the 50 worked in our favour as it triggered a scuflle. And we came out at the start of tbe 2nd Q fired up.

I still think he was within the actual mark..his action made it look otherwise perhaps...ie.he moved forward....but for me it was from behind the mark.

All moot now.

 

Max was right . Umpire wrong.

McKay judged to kick where Max stood...NOT allowing where the mark was.

Max a little clever was denied by umpire error.

Add to the revelations this year that he is one of the best field kicks in the side.

  • REPORT: Geelong

    I was disappointed to hear Goody say at his post match presser after the team’s 39 point defeat against Geelong that "we're getting high quality entry, just poor execution" because Melbourne’s problems extend far beyond that after its 0 - 4 start to the 2025 football season. There are clearly problems with poor execution, some of which were evident well before the current season and were in play when the Demons met the Cats in early May last year and beat them in a near top-of-the-table clash that saw both sides sitting comfortably in the top four after round eight. Since that game, the Demons’ performances have been positively Third World with only five wins in 19 games with a no longer majestic midfield and a dysfunctional forward line that has become too easy for opposing coaches to counter. This is an area of their game that is currently being played out as if they were all completely panic-stricken.

  • PREGAME: Essendon

    Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

  • NON-MFC: Round 04

    Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

  • POSTGAME: Geelong

    The Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, falling to 0–4 after a more spirited showing against the Cats at Kardinia Park. Despite the improved effort, they went down by 39 points, and the road ahead is looking increasingly grim.
