How did Viney escape that tackle? Trac torched that play, but that was vintage handball chains c. 2018 there.

 

Something seriously needs to be done about Tracc's kicking action. Its terrible.

    Tracc pls get your kicking right mate.  Give him no other task on the track this week but working on his kicking on the run and set shots.  Stretch the same!  How far off it is Gus!????

    Lockhart is going from strength to strength. Very clever, the kind of smart footballer we need more of. Creative.


    Twice in a row Tim Smith doesn’t jump when he’s in the vicinity of TMac. The first one TMac misses the mark by a whisker, the second spills out the back and he gets a goal out of it. Forwards who don’t spoil each others marks - it’ll never catch on.

    A nice stat....

    Melbourne have outscored West Coast 3.1.19 to 1.2.8 from stoppages. All three of Melbourne's stoppage goals have been from throw-ins in its forward half.

    Fritsch of 2019 is a liability and adds nothing to the side. His kicking has turned to [censored] and he’s getting beaten in the air. Needs a spell at Casey big time.

    Why do we keep slipping over?

    VFL-level awareness there from the 1st gamer. We were off there.

    Oscar panic handball to Salem ...sells him in to trouble as he has no legs at all


    Baker struggling with the pace of the game, but getting to the right spots to link up. Could be decent if he gets used to the step up in pace.

    Few games and he’ll be right I reckon

    Ouch. Not to be heartless but shouldn’t we have the ball since no one touched the ball after the kick in?

     

    Oscar has been quite good tonight. I almost don't fill my pants every time he's near the ball, which is nice.

    • 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.

    • GAMEDAY: Sydney

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons have a golden opportunity to build on last week’s stirring win by toppling Sydney at the MCG. A victory today would keep them firmly in the hunt for a finals spot and help them stay in touch with the pack chasing a place in the Top 8. Can the Dees make it two in a row and bring down the Swans?

    • NON-MFC: Round 11

      Round 11, the second week of The Sir Doug Nicholls Round, kicks off on Thursday night with the Cats hosting the Bulldogs at Kardinia Park. Geelong will be looking to to continue their decade long dominance over the Bulldogs, while the Dogs aim to take another big scalp as they surge up the ladder. On Friday night it's he Dreamtime at the 'G clash between Essendon and Richmond. The Bombers will want to avoid another embarrassing performance against a lowly side whilst the Tigers will be keen to avenge a disappointing loss to the Kangaroos. Saturday footy kicks off as the Blues face the Giants in a pivotal clash for both clubs. Carlton need to turn around their up and down season while GWS will be eager to bounce back and reassert themselves as a September threat. At twilight sees the Hawks taking on the Lions at the G. Hawthorn need to cement themselves in the Top 4 but they’ll need to be at their best to challenge a Brisbane side eager to respond after last week’s crushing loss to the Dees on their home turf. The first of the Saturday night double headers opens with North Melbourne up against the high-flying Magpies. The Roos will need a near-perfect performance to trouble a Collingwood side sitting atop the ladder.
