Marty Hore, great game young man.

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)...


What’s wrong with Preuss shoulder??

had him as an injury on the afl site

 

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!


Pert: "its good for the supporters"

Would be nice to hear him say "our" supporters. 

You're one of us now Gary

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

Is that the first time we've ever beaten a team with Buddy in it?

Yes


     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: West Coast

    Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.

  • GAMEDAY: West Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons have a chance to notch up their third consecutive win — something they haven’t done since Round 5, 2024. But to do it, they’ll need to exorcise the Demons of last year’s disastrous trip out West. Can the Dees continue their momentum, right the wrongs of that fateful clash, and take another step up the ladder on the road to redemption?

  • FEATURE: 1925

    A hundred years ago today, on 2 May 1925, Melbourne kicked off the new season with a 47 point victory over St Kilda to take top place on the VFL ladder after the opening round of the new season.  Top place was a relatively unknown position for the team then known as the “Fuchsias.” They had finished last in 1923 and rose by only one place in the following year although the final home and away round heralded a promise of things to come when they surprised the eventual premiers Essendon. That victory set the stage for more improvement and it came rapidly. In this series, I will tell the story of how the 1925 season unfolded for the Melbourne Football Club and how it made the VFL finals for the first time in a decade on the way to the ultimate triumph a year later.
