a lot of positives so far tonight, playing well as a team. poor disposals are still there but not as many and not hurting us as badly as past weeks.  we certainly in with a chance regardless of the umpires.

 

Petty looks a player. Hasn't done much but a good intercept Mark and a few spoils nice size looks composed..

    We went in undercooked this year but I wasn’t expecting it to include the coaching staff.

    They’ve evolved.

    Lacking the polish that would have us almost home

    But loving the aggressive movement through the middle

    This is what I don’t understand, how isn’t this addressed, Carey, BT, Dunstall have all spotted the issue, yet he’s shanking them left and right every week.

     

    Trac needs to chat to a specialist goal kicking coach, clearly Melbourne don’t have one.....

    No he needs to see a psychologist. This is purely mental. He is terrified of missing and you can see it clearly in his face.

    Ok we are still in front, they are potentially 2 down. We need to take advantage of that. I like our run and play on but sometimes I feel we are doing one to many handballs where we should just be getting it long. 

    I like how Baker went in to stand up for harmes in that quarter. 

    If we can get 2 or 3 goals from Trac and Tommy finds his 1st quarter form we can hold on. 

    Maxy is rucking brilliantly. 

    Come on dees we can do this.

    Needs to talk to Russell Robertson. I remember he went through a similar faze earlier on in his career, fixed it up and become one of our most accurate kicks for goal.

    We lost our energy after that small break in play. Hopefully we can capitalise this qtr

    100%

    from memory he lowered his ball drop, learned to take a big breath before beginning his approach, and relax then kick through it

    Couldn’t hurt as he is putrid at the moment. Makes Casboult look like a dead eye.

    Trac is a good long kick. 

    But his kicking for goal whether from a mark or snapping or on the run is horrible. He needs help

    Incidentally, Elliot Yeo is up to ten tackles at half time.  Say what you will about his ducking cheating rubbish wehn he has the ball, he's putting in the effort. 

    I hope one day he ducks and someone actually really hurts him. Cheat!

    I love the way we are playing this game. I like the games of Baker, Petty and also T. Smith.


    Come on Melbourne 


    Stretch's kicking inside 50 ....blah !!!   TRAC THAT IS [censored] RUBBISH!!!!

    I don’t think we’ll win this but this has been reassuring. May Lever Jetta melk Hannan and we’re back

    OTOH please can we get pe-trarckarh’s kicking sorted

    Would love a straight drop punt......yes!!!! Jeffy alleluia alleluia

    • PREVIEW: Collingwood

      Way back in March we contemplated the possibility of a Demon resurgence after Simon Goodwin’s summer of love. Many issues at the club had seemingly been addressed, key players were returning from injury and a brand new day was about to dawn. We imagined the coach pulling a rabbit out of a hat. The team would roar up the charts, push aside every opponent and make its way to a Grand Final ending in ultimate triumph with Goody and Max holding the premiership cup aloft under a shower of red and blue ticker tape.

    • AFLW REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      We’re back! That was fun. The Mighty Dees’ Season 10 campaign is off toa flying start with a commanding 48-point winover the Western Bulldogs, retaining the Hampson-Hardeman Cup in style. After a hard-fought first half in slippery conditions, the Dees came out in the second half and showcased their trademark superior class, piling on four goals in the third termand never looked back.

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      The final score in Saturday's game against Hawthorn was almost identical to that from their last contest three months ago. Melbourne suffered comprehensive defeats in both games, but the similarities ended there.When they met in Round 9, the Demons were resurgent, seeking to redeem themselves after a lacklustre start to the season. They approached the game with vigour and dynamism, and were highly competitive for the first three quarters, during which they were at least on par with the Hawks. In the final term, they lapsed into error and were ultimately overrun, but the final result did not accurately reflect their effort and commitment throughout the match.

    • CASEY: Box Hill

      The Casey Demons ended the regular season on a positive note and gained substantial momentum leading into the finals when they knocked the Box Hill Hawks off the top of the VFL ladder in their final round clash at Casey Fields. More importantly, they moved out of a wild card position in the finals race and secured a week's rest as they leapfrogged up the ladder into fifth place with their decisive 23-point victory over the team that had been the dominant force in the competition for most of the season.

      The final game of the 2025 Season is finally upon us and the Demons may have an opportunity to spoil the Magpies Top 4 aspirations when they face them on Friday Night. Who comes in and who goes out?
