I actually think Tmac has provided a genuine round the ground contest.

I agree with the commentatorts (not often mind you) but it has been a very good game. Freo have the capacity to move the ball , lucky when you have Fyffe, Hills and walters. But we just need to mave a bit better (and kick a little better) and not give goals via clangers in the middle of the ground. Gee we are lucky that one of the MacDonalds did not do the stuff ups that lead to goals in 1st Q

 

Ive got the answer!!!!

Send Bitters down to training with his cat o' nine tails and give Goodwin a jolly good.

    OMG. They actually can run the ball and get a goal?

    GO DEES!

    Just think his confidence is shot.

    you dont think hes carrying something, more than a niggle ? I do

    I dont believe one iota of the rubbish that emanates from DeeHQ.

    Last year we managed to drive half the team into the ground . Thats why many arent out there. Tmac was injured...i'll lay london to  brick hes getting jabbed just to play the mediocre rubbish currently on display...No wonder he plays like he does. He KNOWS he cant give it 100% He's persisted with , imho, because there really arent too may options.

    We're quite a dumb club unfortunately  , currently reaping what we sowed.

    Quite simply ...he cant perform as he was...because he cant. He knows it, must be soul destroying. That said...he's not doing himself any favours.

    I’ll be so pleased to see Hannan & Wagner out of the Team. 

    Lockhart is the big story thus far. 

    Wags & Petty couldnt win it between them.  See Lever & Hibberd

    Holy f  k and chit and then it is followed up by one of the worst pieces of totally Melb play I have ever seen!!!! Worked it up the ground really well to then pizz fart around with it around the 50 for Freo pressure to turn it over and then they push it down the ground for a terrible turn over goal.

    That Wagner fumble in the forward line directly resulted in the Fremantle goal there. Wagners are kryptonite for smooth fast-handball chains.

    Hannan's been out for months.  He'll be fine with another game or so under his belt to find his touch and match fitness

    • PREVIEW: Richmond

      A few years ago, the Melbourne Football Club produced a documentary about the decade in which it rose from its dystopic purgatory of regular thrashings to the euphoria of a premiership victory. That entire period could have been compressed in a fast motion version of the 2025 season to date as the Demons went from embarrassing basket case to glorious winner in an unexpected victory over the Dockers last Saturday. They transformed in a single week from a team that put in a pedestrian effort of predictably kicking the ball long down the line into attack that made a very ordinary Bombers outfit look like worldbeaters into a slick, fast moving side with urgency and a willingness to handball and create play with shorter kicks and by changing angles to generate an element of chaos that yielded six goals in each of the opening quarters against Freo.

    • NON-MFC: Round 07

      Round 7 gets underway in iconic fashion with the traditional ANZAC Day blockbuster. The high-flying Magpies will be looking to solidify their spot atop the ladder, while the Bombers are desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top eight. Later that evening, Fremantle will be out to redeem themselves after a disappointing loss to the Demons, facing a hungry Adelaide side with eyes firmly set on breaking into the top four. Saturday serves up a triple-header of footy action. The Lions will be looking to consolidate their Top 2 spot as they head to Marvel Stadium to clash with the Saints. Over in Adelaide, Port Adelaide will be strong favourites at home against a struggling North Melbourne. The day wraps up with a fiery encounter in Canberra, where the Giants and Bulldogs renew their bitter rivalry. Sunday’s schedule kicks off with the Suns aiming to bounce back from their shock defeat to Richmond, taking on the out of form Swans.Then the Blues will be out to claim a major scalp when they battle the Cats at the MCG. The round finishes with a less-than-thrilling affair between Hawthorn and West Coast at Marvel. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • REPORT: Fremantle

      For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

    • CASEY: UWS Giants

      The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

    • PREGAME: Richmond

      The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?
