Good to see we have learned how to stem a team getting a run-on. FMD. Talk about resting on our laurels over the off-season.

 

Sack Troy Chaplin. Single handedly turned our backline into a shambles

    The depressing part is there very little at Casey. Seriously who can contemplate a year of watching O Mac and Frost.

     

    We're a fraudulent side. We gather inside 50s by putting more numbers at the source and forward of ball. Fraud. The numbers are irrelevant. We leave 4 oppo forwards goalside ALL GAME

     

     

    What is it with un-pressured errors?

    Simple, uncontested marks dropped.

    Un-pressured kicks going sort-of near a target but never hitting.

    And we are getting slaughtered at the ball drop, which was our strength.

    Melksham, Kolodjashnij, Omac, Hibberd having absolute howlers.

    No composure.
    No class.

     

    Whats happened to Hibb??? Seems to have lost half a yard?

    Two turnig points: ANB dropping an uncontested mark. And Captain Viney passing up having a shot on goal to stem momentum.

    Frost and O Mcdonald are not AFL footballers.

    And what about Petracca's missed marks and non contests... when he stands back waiting for the ball to come to him,  while his opponent is in getting it, and gone>>>


    Frost can’t even take a chest mark. Kinda garden stuff

    And gained half a tonne

    At least The Ashes is on this year


    Frost again so predictable

    • 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?

    • POSTGAME: Collingwood

      Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.
