Sweet, sweet Lord. I am not going to survive this season.

I think I broke my hand tonight? 

We played one good quarter. Not enough against good teams.

    The moment Joel Smith unnecessarily rushed his kick from a mark early in the last quarter I knew we were in trouble.

    Zero game sense.

    A really good tough win ... in terms of important wins,  that is our best win for the season.

    The Crows were always going to come back at us in the last quarter - they are no mug side and they're on their own turf. 

    But we matched it with them in the first half and hung in there and then played a great 3rd quarter. 

    A great win!

     I don't think we are weak in recent last quarters.  Both Geelong and Adelaide have recently had 10 day breaks.  Whereas we have had 7 day breaks after a Darwin game a few weeks ago.  Huge effort to almost hold on last week

    Adelaide should have been much fresher than us and we had a few walking wounded tonight eg Hogan and Harmes.  A mammoth effort for the team to hold on.

    Very proud of the lads.

    Some smart football throughout tonight and after weathering the early storm a getting over a lot of fumbling the boys were very good in their decision making and playing the percentages.

    Tmac was exceptional with his body work and plenty of smart body work by all around the stoppages

    Love how much hate we are getting on bigfooty.

    If we get viney hibberd & hunt (back to his best form) we are going to be very scary in September.

    Winning ugly is ok

    Adelaide had their season on the line

    We only needed 1 goal in the last Q and we got it.

    2 things: 

    1. Clayton Oliver is unbelievable. He is the best player I have seen in a Melbourne jumper. Ever. 

    2. If Frost can stop touching things: eg- the ball, the opposition etc, I really think he could be a player

    I love this club. It makes me anxious, frustrated and angry sometimes but wins like that just make your weekend. I’m happy for the club and all of you guys, the supporters. Heart still racing!

    Big club circle for the song and FMD, Goodwin showed emotion. So happy right now.

    FFS enjoy it. They are a good side. We played hard tough footy in the first half but lacked polish. We then dominated in a hostile environment and held them out in the last.

    Don't be like that, Jaded!  You can't tell me you didn't fire up when Nibbler kicked that sealer at the end.  I won't dispute your point above, but that's for later on.  Enjoy a win in enemy territory that keeps our season well and truly alive!!!

    That sealer... dancing around the kitchen after that! ""We're going to win! [censored] you Adelaide ! Get [censored] Adelaide!"

    Eddie is one of my favourite non-Melbourne players to watch. He absolutely saved our asses with that miss

    Jesse Hogan winning that 1 on 1 in those conditions with 20 seconds and the give off to Trac to ANB for the goal was awesome.

    Couple of great tackles in defensive 50 by O Mac and Salem really helped us in the dying stages.

      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.
