Not much love for JKH but he’s in so let’s get behind him.

Bugg should be playing not the spud

Exhibit a: how to acknowledge you’re not a fan of the player but get behind him anyway.

Exhibit b: how to throw a selection tantrum and throw in some unnecessary name calling for good measure.

Support Melbourne.

    Brayshaw also missed 3 in a row and gawd help us if Oscar ever has to take an important shot. No frikn idea. Even tmac spraying them. Brayshaw Just slotted a cpl and Jones kicking super straight now. 


    Backing JKH to have the game of his life today  -  28 possessions, 8 tackles and 2 goals.

    Bugg would've only added 1 Goal 3 Behinds and 1 Out on full

    Prefer JKH for his defensive run

    We’ll never know but I think you forget Buggs defensive pressure is tip top.

    Nothing surer, he will kick 5 straight during the match. 

    Just saw Dylan Shiel walk past and this legend near us yelled out "good luck at the bombers shiely"

    Get around JKH!

    It's not about us rallying for JKH... it's about him being useful to a team. Its not him....it's US.

    If he's cast forward I want to see him behaving like a bloody fwd...not a defender....

    He doesn't inspire me.

    Even with a finals spot locked up I am still too nervous to watch the game for some reason....  guess I REALLY want to get 5th spot and have our first final in 12 years to be on the MCG vs the handbaggers.

    Win today and we get a home final, lose and we play GW$ away. GW$ will also have up to 6 very hand players coming in for their first final. Although we’ve made finals let’s give ourselves the best shot when in them and win this game.

    Banner: they should apply the mercy rule. 23 nil. 160th Guernsey ... Very navy blue

    A win today on the back of last weeks, considering both opponents are worthy adversaries, will set our stage for finals.

    Yup... and we would be facing the Cats who have had two training drills vs garbage opposition.

    We will be much better prepared than them.

    OD? What about the bloke (Uhm me) who tipped it... meet you at the RACV club? :) 

     

    OMac channels his inner Travis Johnstone to launch that offensive play.

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      Melbourne and Hawthorn who face off against each other this week have more in common than having once almost merged and about to wear a blue jumper with a red v triangle and an embroidered picture of a bird on the front.  They also share the MCG as their main home ground, their supporters are associated with the leafy suburbs of Melbourne and in recent times, James Frawley graced the colours of both teams. Even more recently, both have bounced back from disastrous five game losing streaks to start off a season. Of course, the Hawks turned their bounce into a successful leap from the bottom of the ladder into a finals appearance, making it to the semifinals in 2024 and this year, they’re riding high in third place on the AFL table. The Demons are just three games into their 2025 bounce back, and are yet to climb their way out of the bottom four although they are sitting a game and percentage out of the top eight. However, with the current sportsbet odds of $3.90 to win this week’s encounter, it seems a forlorn hope that their upward progression will continue much longer.

    • REPORT: West Coast

      On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

    • PREGAME: Hawthorn

      The Demons return to the MCG to take on the High Flying Hawks on Saturday Afternoon. Hawthorn will be aiming to consolidate a position in the Top 4 whilst the Dees will be looking to take a scalp and make it four wins in a row. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • 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.
