Umpiring is fine, win the contested ball we win, umpires irrelevant 

 

Jeez, the 5m zone rule is half baked. Def needs refinement over summer

    It's been fine except for the Jetta HTB. That should have been called high if the one 30 seconds earlier was.

    The one on ward, in the last minute, yes same as Nev's.

    BWS have kicked poorly.

    Vandenberg 50, nev at the end of qtr, no way is that holding the ball. A couple others for good measure too.

    what game are you watching?

    Get real, both were there. The VDB one is just a stupid rule interpreted correctly

    That was there. It's just a terrible rule.

    Agree to disagree.

     

    In this day an age it’s probably expected to lose a match if your 2/3 down at half time... it’s been a good account thus far ... whether we win or lose - we reset with viney.

    Gawn is a marking machine today. Won't kick this though.

    EDIT: Shows what I know he's done it!

    Finally Petracca is finishing

    Petracca is a deadset idiot.

    Fuddy ain't chess.

    Harmes is absolutely Viney-like.

    Can't wait to see Viney, Oliver, Harmes, Brayshaw, Gawn all in the one side.

    Jesus Harmes is looking like Ablett in his prime

    Good efforts from JKH. He can smell a finals spot, and he's not looking out of place.

      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.
