Hawks are very gettable today. If we can just tidy up our deplorable skills.

    The difference between Spargo and Garlett? Spargo straightens up and has a shot, or looks for a teammate in a high % position.

    Garlett goes for the checkside low % kick. And sprays it.

    The other thing I don’t see is the physicality from last years final, we look scared of hitting them hard.

    Tracc 2 touches.... 

     

    Garlett needs an old fashioned dragging. This is an astonishingly bad career ending game from him.

    I said it at the start of last season and I’ll say it again, Jeffy is done. Selfish, lazy and shocking decision making.

    It feels like we are literally fumbling everything. And yet we are still in the game.

    Tmac can’t take a mark to save himself.

    Get Fritch off, seriously. Has been shocking today.

    Fristchs kicking this year is amongst the worst I’ve ever seen. His kicking skills used to be his strength!


    Why kick it to him outside the boundary...keep it inside and make him mark it there!???

    Mcdonald Garlett and Fritsch are making absolute fools of themselves. Embarrassing. ALmost a parody

    He is 1 of 4 players with 2 or less touches.... 


    Oscar ffs. 

    Jones & Lockhart have been good.  Harmes starting to come into it.  Some nice outlet short passes from Lewis on the kick ins to open up the field.

     

    Sideways. Back. Sideways. Back. Sideways. Turnover.

    We are back to the days of being excruciating to watch.

    • 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.
