Hore been very good

Its ridiculous how easy we get scored against on the rebound though 

 

Disapointing start with 3 late goals from sloppy possession by us and clean by them. I bet the oppo have that sticky stuff on their hands whereas we don't. Hopefully sopmehting changes after quarter time.

 

I’m missing Bachelor in Paradise for this!!!! 

Fuming!

Hibberd - putrid again

He is finished at years end

absolute garbage toast. Can’t even win contested ball now. Poor performers all round. 

A little credit to Trac though he’s having a dip.


Unacceptable from the mids. 

This is just frighteningly bad. Something smells off about this. Reminds me of previous regimes when things were about to implode.

Even the commentators have noticed how bad we are when the ball is on the ground.

Sydney are so clean but we struggle to keep the ball in front of us let alone pick it up without fumbling.

It's frightening how hard this hits home


The Nathan Jones effort to grab the Tom McDonald kick across the backline, albeit a crap kick, really is a great example of where we are at.

Didn't seem to care about getting the ball...was more focused on giving McDonald a stare down.

Can Oscar just [censored] off already? Give me Petty. Give me Keilty. Anyone but that guy. 

Disgraceful game of footy. Jones and OMAC have to be dropped. We look like the bottom side.


How can you all  put with this shithouse umpiring it absolutely reeks

I’m not an umpire blamer but they got some gifts

Kieren Jack lifted his arm to turn a legal tackle into an arm over shoulder. Thought that was to be play on?

That was the Melksham of old there!  

Lovely finish from Harmes as well.  More of that, please.

  • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

    The media has performed a complete reversal in its coverage of the Melbourne Football Club over the past month and a half. Having endured intense criticism from all quarters in the press, which continually identified new avenues for scrutiny of every aspect, both on and off the field, and prematurely speculated about the departures of coaches, players, officials, and various employees from a club that lost its first five matches and appeared out of finals contention, the narrative has suddenly shifted to one of unbridled optimism.  The Demons have won five of their last six matches, positioning themselves just one game (and a considerable amount of percentage) outside the top eight at the halfway mark of the season. They still trail the primary contenders and remain far from assured of a finals berth.

  • REPORT: Sydney

    A few weeks ago, I visited a fellow Melbourne Football Club supporter in hospital, and our conversation inevitably shifted from his health diagnosis to the well-being of our football team. Like him, Melbourne had faced challenges in recent months, but an intervention - in his case, surgery, and in the team's case, a change in game style - had brought about much improvement.  The team's professionals had altered its game style from a pedestrian and slow-moving approach, which yielded an average of merely 60 points for five winless games, to a faster and more direct style. This shift led to three consecutive wins and a strong competitive effort in the fourth game, albeit with a tired finish against Hawthorn, a strong premiership contender.  As we discussed our team's recent health improvement, I shared my observations on the changes within the team, including the refreshed style, the introduction of new young talent, such as rising stars Caleb Windsor, Harvey Langford, and Xavier Lindsay, and the rebranding of Kozzy Pickett from a small forward to a midfield machine who can still get among the goals. I also highlighted the dominance of captain Max Gawn in the ruck and the resurgence in form in a big way of midfield superstars Christian Petracca and Clayton Oliver.

  • POSTGAME: Sydney

    The Demons controlled the contest from the outset, though inaccurate kicking kept the Swans in the game until half time. But after the break, Melbourne put on the jets and blew Sydney away and the demolition job was complete.

  • CASEY: Northern Bullants

    The Casey Demons travelled to a windy Cramer Street, Preston yesterday and blew the Northern Bullants off the ground for three quarters before shutting up shop in the final term, coasting to a much-needed 71-point victory after leading by almost 15 goals at one stage. It was a pleasing performance that revived the Demons’ prospects for the 2025 season but, at the same time, very little can be taken from the game because of the weak opposition. These days, the Bullants are little more than road kill. The once proud club, situated behind the Preston Market in a now culturally diverse area, is currently facing significant financial and on-field challenges, having failed to secure a win to date in 2025.
