Rules what rules!

Makeshift backline could be our undoing here. The question is going to be if we can kick a big enough score to overcome the goals we're going to leak up the other end. Still, at least we're kicking goals and looking like a decent team. Next week with More, Salem, May and Lever in ... look out.

Spot on

 

Oscar warming up the seat for Steven May next week

Enjoy. I’m not going. Incantation next gig for me.

Brutal Assault is my next gig ?

 

Geez Jenkins is a spud. I wish OMac didn't give away crap frees like that, but if you're going to, Jenkins is not a bad guy to give the ball haha


Oliver’s kicking is really starting to [censored] me off.

OMac is totally outmatched on Jenkins. 

Which is scary because Jenkins isn’t very good 

Wagner should be blamed for dropping an easy mark in our attacking 50. 

A tall forward is Spargo 


Is Spargo going to make the distance?

What's happened to his penetration? He just hoicks it high nowadays.

A free kick in OUR forward line would be nice.

Oscar makes me physically angry, just shows how slow he is physically & psychologically when he’s losing contests to Jenkins of all players.

Seriously can’t wait till May comes back & we can send Oscar where he belongs.


Where was everyone in our backline just then? 

 

We are totally [censored] if we keep letting Adelaide get the ball inside 50 because our backline is trash today. 

Some absolutely belting match-ups we're seeing out there tonight.

Two absolute stars of the game in Omac vs Jenkins.

And of course the epic battle of Wagner vs himself.

  • REPORT: Hawthorn

    Melbourne and Hawthorn who face off against each other this week have more in common than having once almost merged and about to wear a blue jumper with a red v triangle and an embroidered picture of a bird on the front.  They also share the MCG as their main home ground, their supporters are associated with the leafy suburbs of Melbourne and in recent times, James Frawley graced the colours of both teams. Even more recently, both have bounced back from disastrous five game losing streaks to start off a season. Of course, the Hawks turned their bounce into a successful leap from the bottom of the ladder into a finals appearance, making it to the semifinals in 2024 and this year, they’re riding high in third place on the AFL table. The Demons are just three games into their 2025 bounce back, and are yet to climb their way out of the bottom four although they are sitting a game and percentage out of the top eight. However, with the current sportsbet odds of $3.90 to win this week’s encounter, it seems a forlorn hope that their upward progression will continue much longer.

  • REPORT: West Coast

    On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

  • 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.
