I’m convinced when our coaching staff say “we need to get better at kicking it inside 50” they really mean we’re going to focus on our contested possesion and keep boming it long inside 50

    Brayshaw having a pot from outside 50 isn't going to help things. Can't imagine that was a Goodwin instruction.

    And another wild shot from Hibberd. Moronic.

    Nice goal Melksham.  We're smashing them; get the radar right and we can kick away.

    the longer the game goes the slower it will get.... we should be 6 goals up which would allow us to control the pace of the game.

    Instead we are chasing our tail

     

    Love our NT jumper.

    Should be 4 goals up. A worry! 


    Statistically this is a complete and utter annihilation. That we can't capitalise is a major incitement on our finals capabilities.

    Ok now even Tom McDonald is missing. It's panic stations now people.

    Hard shots for goal - easy. Set shots -  hard.

    Not making excuses, just pointing out it's a bad example.  If they were playing at another oval in Darwin then you would have a point.

    Nothing can incite our finals capabilities at this point.

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.

    • GAMEDAY: West Coast

      It's Game Day and the Demons have a chance to notch up their third consecutive win — something they haven’t done since Round 5, 2024. But to do it, they’ll need to exorcise the Demons of last year’s disastrous trip out West. Can the Dees continue their momentum, right the wrongs of that fateful clash, and take another step up the ladder on the road to redemption?

    • FEATURE: 1925

      A hundred years ago today, on 2 May 1925, Melbourne kicked off the new season with a 47 point victory over St Kilda to take top place on the VFL ladder after the opening round of the new season.  Top place was a relatively unknown position for the team then known as the “Fuchsias.” They had finished last in 1923 and rose by only one place in the following year although the final home and away round heralded a promise of things to come when they surprised the eventual premiers Essendon. That victory set the stage for more improvement and it came rapidly. In this series, I will tell the story of how the 1925 season unfolded for the Melbourne Football Club and how it made the VFL finals for the first time in a decade on the way to the ultimate triumph a year later.
