Harmes injury being blown out of proportion I think. He broke his hand last year and played the same week. Wouldn’t surprise me at all if he still played round 1

    Anyone ever fumbled more than ANB?

    I just get the impression ANB is a bit of a panicker.

    Hunt has been disappointing in the second half. Should have kept him forward. 

    Agreed, he'd offer us something we seriously lack in the forward line and that's speed. He' 187cm and got 15 on Spargo, but could he be the quick and agile crumber we are crying out for? Worth a try i'd have thought.


    4 sausage rolls to Smith..

    Joel Smith on one leg is better than Joel Smith on two legs? ?

    I sense he's over-trying...  trying to force himself to the next level.  This will make himself fumble,  trying to be too slick.    Let it happen lad,  don't force it.

    Has anyone ever deserved a punch more than Mitch Robinson?

    Would like to see the contested making stats inside 50. It feels like they have slaughtered us in that regard.

     

    Umpires need another month to get some competence.

    Perhaps we had to shift him into other rolls when both JKH and Harmes went down injured?  Or maybe Goody is just trying a few different things while there are no points up for grabs?  Either way, I think he showed enough down forward to suggest he can be handy down there if need be.

    Joel Smith has been excellent today as well.  Surely it puts him in contention for Round 1?

    Softest free ever. Shithouse.

    Smith is a lock for rd 1. 

    Milkshake, Viney and Jones all due to come in.

    That pass was barely 10 let alone 15, lol.

    But how about a bit of awareness Max and Christian.

    Look last year thought he was a solid contributor but have seen instances of it over the past couple of years.

    • REPORT: Adelaide

      The atmosphere at the Melbourne Football Club at the beginning of the season was aspirational following an injury-plagued year in 2024. Coach Simon Goodwin had lofty expectations with the return of key players, the anticipated improvement from a maturing group with a few years of experience under their belts, and some exceptional young talent also joining the ranks. All of that went by the wayside as the team failed to click into action early on. It rallied briefly with a new strategy but has fallen again with five more  consecutive defeats.

    • CASEY: Coburg

      The Casey Demons returned to their home ground which was once a graveyard for opposing teams but they managed to gift the four points on offer to Coburg with yet another of their trademark displays of inaccuracy in front of goals and some undisciplined football that earned the displeasure of the umpires late in the game. The home team was welcomed by a small crowd at Casey Fields and looked right at home as it dominated the first three quarters and led for all bar the last five minutes of the game. In the end, they came away with nothing, despite winning everywhere but on the scoreboard and the free kick count.

    • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

      The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.
