Trac was huge.Ā  My only issue with him is that he keeps looking to dish rather than taking the instinctive shot.Ā  His goal-scoring instincts have been trained out of him.Ā

His yips will get sorted out, but his contested work is as good as anyone in our team.Ā  As I said last week, he makes scores happen (for us, not them).Ā 


Frost - made an impact

I know Frost is far from popular on here but you can't deny the impact he had on this game. He was valuable and was there when we needed someone to step up and do something.

Salem - a f-ing gun

We might be seeing his best footy this season. Very good by foot and hard as nails.

Good call. Ā I'd rather him ping from 50 than lower the eyes. Ā He doesn't have touch.

Melbourne won't let him go with this instinct until Hocking brings super-goals in @ 2021.

Stretch - play tabletennis twitchy

Petracca - Stretch with muscles

Lewis - wig or dye?

Weren't many better

Clarry, Salem, Jones, Melk, McDonald were all better. I'd love it if he delivered on his potential but he doesn't do enough. He's never struck me as a deep thinker but It looks likeĀ he's over-thinking his footy, almost trying too hard.Ā 


T Mac - welcome to 2019

Frost - Reliable in defence

Petracca - Practice goal kicking!

Marty - Watch me Trac

TMac - Beat the clock

Game - Magic 18 seconds

  • 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.Ā  Top place was a relatively unknown position for the team then known as the ā€œFuchsias.ā€ 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.
