    It was a hard game to watch. We aren’t out of the woods by any means and we have a lot of improvement to do yet. But that was a gusty hard fought win and absolute credit to Jones. Led from the front tonight.

    3.2 in the second half to Sydney on a small ground, with a makeshift backline... maybe I am being reductionist - but the system works, when the parts of the system work hard... (two way running, yadda yadda yadda)...

    Oliver’s contempt for Roaming Brian makes me love him even more.

    Just landed in Paris! Scrambled to get to my hotel to listen live....OMG! Picked up the last five minutes and the crew on 3AW were saying that the Swans were:

    1. Out played

    2. Being toyed with

    3. Sinclair was cooked! 

    4. And I heard Gawny's name and C Oliver's named several times

    Fantastic effort! I love this team and Paris awaits!

    Night all, soak it up!

    Why was Oscar in the track suit? Obviously was poor but I can’t imagine he’d just be dragged but didn’t see him in the second half.

    Unfortunately for him we were better when he was off....

    Roaming Brian............words fail me

    Jones, Hunt, Petracca, The Wagners, Fritsch and the usual suspects all put in

    Really pleasing to grind it out!

    And Frosty... even when he fxcked up he tried to redeem himself

         Nathan Jones take a bow  3 goals tackles great character from the Co Skipper.  You have your doubters but you    were one that lifted when it was needed. 

         Frosty you did the job and i hope that is a confidence builder that you needed. 

         Petracca you are back in town boy. Your knockers won't be happy.

    We are good on the smaller grounds now to defend the MCG properly....great effort after halftime by the boys tonight

    The negatives. 

    Sydney are rubbish. 

    No Preuss no Melbourne and he definitely looks like he’ll miss a few. 

     

     

    The positives. 

    We won’t go winless this year. 

    But seriously, Hunt and Petracca were very good, exciting and involved. Jones goal seem to be a release of pressure, we were free flowing after that. You just can’t completely shut out Oliver and Brayshaw. 

     

    Overall i I still think we have big issues, especially defensively, but a good win against a [censored] of a team. Hopefully [censored] gets going from here.

    I knew this was coming. It wasn’t a question of if, it was a question of when. 

    Time to refocus. Sydney is not an impressive scalp these days but given the circumstance and the fact it’s was at the SCG makes it highly pleasing indeed. 

    If we can get 3 to 4 on the trot now we are well and truly back in it. 

     

    Go dees!!!!

    • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.

    • PREVIEW: North Melbourne

      Can you believe it? After a long period of years over which Melbourne has dominated in matches against North Melbourne, the Demons are looking down the barrel at two defeats at the hands of the Kangaroos in the same season. And if that eventuates, it will come hot on the heels of an identical result against the Gold Coast Suns. How have the might fallen? There is a slight difference in that North Melbourne are not yet in the same place as Gold Coast. Like Melbourne, they are currently situated in the lower half of the ladder and though they did achieve a significant upset when the teams met earlier in the season, their subsequent form has been equally unimpressive and inconsistent.

    • 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.
