Front on contact. The rules are as clear as day. 

 

Melksham v Hurley summary: High, high, high, holding, push in the back.

No free play on.

 

But yes our problems are still there. Such an easy goal to McD-T Goody's contention is probably that it doesn't matter when all our stars are dominating. But when do ALL a team's stars dominate for an entire season?

    4 unpaid free kicks in a row to Melksham.........unpaid....Disgraceful   .

    That's about 4 throws out of congestion from the Bongers so far...NONE spotted!  

    Mustn't have gone to Specsavers!

    Make that 5!

    Turn around due to spark from C Wagner and Lockhart

    Be careful they’re going to come at us with everything in the 3rd

     

    We are getting hung on to, smacked, pushed, and are getting nothing from the umps.

    In the meantime, if we even breathe heavily near and Druggie player they get the whistle out.

    Disgraceful

    The lift came suddenly! All started with that bit of confidence from Clarry to Melky. Keep it up!

    It feels a little similar to the same game last year.  We struggled early, then everything clicked and we ran over the top of them.  Let's hope the second half is similar to that one tonight.

    Stringer is the biggest piece of scum on this earth. I hope his foot blows up. Piece of [censored].

    What a great quarter. Defensively looked 10000 times better, seems our mids got back and supported a bit more. Its funny what happens when you run and make space for your team mates. 

    Umpires missed a few frees close to goal for us there. Need to keep the peptides in it somehow 

    Wagner and Frost have been our 2 best defenders.

    It’s nowhere near as congested as I was expecting it to be

    T Mac being forced off actually created space i50 - putting him on the wing upon return kept that forward line open

    Now keep going Dees

    you are kidding this phthetic

    Theres a heatbeat...


    Shiel is destroying us. Curtail him and I reckon we can win this. 

    We still look miles off, but they worked hard this quarter and finally got some decent ball movement happening. 

    Salem and Oliver are class.

    Wow, what is happening?! I did not see this coming the way we were playing 

    we weren't playing that was the trouble.

    Now they decided to have a dip, and maybe the bummers thought they have us.  easing the pressure off

    We are away now, and should be able to find some faith again.  Our season is just starting now, still rusty, and tactics need a tweak.

    With KK, Lockhart, Wagner x2, all relatively new to team, it took the first to gel. Was much better in second. Pieces starting to click, end to end.

    • 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.

    • GAMEDAY: Collingwood

      It's Game Day and the Demons face a monumental task as they take on the top-of-the-table Magpies in one of the biggest games on the Dees calendar: the King's Birthday Big Freeze MND match. Can the Demons defy the odds and claim a massive scalp to keep their finals hopes alive?
