    What’s happened to Petty’s marking? Seems to be misjudging the flight of the ball.

    His marking has been very strong the last few weeks, same as Keilty

    Dunno what’s going on with both of them

    Troy Chaplin is what’s going on with them.

    Keilty was clunking everything that came his way the last 2 weeks

    Dunno what’s happening today

    Big difference in foot skills. Chandler the only one to maybe get excited about at this stage.

    Gotta be the wind, all our players going up 2 secs too early

    This looks like a complete training drill for the Hawks

    Our easy exits from defensive 50 are an embarrassment at both afl and vfl level - really sub-standard defensive efforts

    2 goals 2 for the quarter with the breeze compared to 4 goals 2 into it...not good!

    They look as bad as the seniors

    Bombing it forward, shambles in defence. Look like our 1sts. 

  • Quote

    Chandler and Stretch the only 2 having a go the rest are pathetic. If Smith could kick he might be a good player.

    have never really understood why we exclusively play the same gameplan at VFL as at AFL.

    Sure play it for a half or every second game ...but experiment !!!

    Frankly at VFL level the chaos theory is more of a scrum that does not encourage skills

    So far In: Preuss, Stretch

    Out: T.Mac (if injured) (if not) O.Mac and ANB.

    I can't believe O.Mac gets another game due to this performance.

    Is Chaplin the worst coach in history? Must be close.

    Stretch has been killing it. Showing genuine speed. I'd bring him in for KK.

    Hawks run & carry (able to link up more often with quick ball movement) and have more players capable of side stepping / baulking or turning their opponents to run into space or switch play.  They are more fleet of foot also.  We have mostly slow/pedestrian plodders in comparison.

    They are also hitting so many more targets by foot and finishing in front of goal beautifully.

    have to remember that the Casey team is almost unrecognizable from that which played last year. I'd love KC to give us the numbers but it's probably 50% turnover if not more.

    What the hell was Hore doing? Left his man and allowed him to take an easy. Woeful recruit go back to Collingwood!

    Baker not showing much, pity.

    • GAMEDAY: Port Adelaide

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons are on the road for the next month and will be desperate to claim a crucial win to keep their finals hopes alive against Port Adelaide.

    • PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      With both sides precariously positioned ahead of the run home to the finals, only one team involved in Sunday’s clash at the Adelaide Oval between the Power and the Demons will remain a contender when it’s over.  On current form, that one team has to be Melbourne which narrowly missed out on defeating the competition’s power house Collingwood on King's Birthday and also recently overpowered both 2024 Grand Finalists. Conversely, Port Adelaide snapped out of a four-game losing streak with a win against the Giants in Canberra. Although they will be rejuvenated following that victory, their performances during that run of losses were sub par and resulted in some embarrassing blow out defeats.

    • NON-MFC: Round 14

      Round 14 is upon us and there's plenty at stake across the rest of the competition. As Melbourne heads to Adelaide, it's time to turn our attention to the other matches of the Round. Which teams are you tipping this week? And which results would be most favourable for the Demons’ finals tilt?

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

    • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

      The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?
