IF anyone is at the game, and still has any enthusiasm at all, who is playing back up ruck to Max?  (Serious question so don’t  say Spargo)

I know Melksham took at least one ruck contest.

As well as either kicking or setting up our entire score.

How is it possible for that to be the case when he doesn't even seem to be having a particularly good game?

    Listening to Pert today on the MFC podcast he is 100% Goody is the right coach... Bartlett was the same not long ago... it’s hard to keep the faith.

    Remember, though - they're asking for faith and patience. Another 5, 6, 7 or 8 years. That's all!

    It's all just wrist slashing if you ask me. 

    You're all overreacting. 

    I think you're right. I mean what were we expecting with OMac out injured????

    Where's Oliver? Please don't tell me he's injured.

    He’s there.  He’s just decided it’s better for his career to stay away from the ball.

    Maybe Pert and Bartlet are not the right guys also

    Disgusting performance! That's what happens when you put your worst team out on the park. T.Mac is our most important player without him we are a disgrace.

    This would have to be one of the worst games of football by Melbourne Ive seen in the last 50 years.

    They must have given up.

    They clearly have not tried. Swans intent evidenced by their fierce tackling ......its night and day.

    You could see it on their faces when they ran out onto the ground. Petracca looked utterly disinterested.

    • PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      With both sides precariously positioned ahead of the run home to the finals, only one team involved in Sunday’s clash at the Adelaide Oval between the Power and the Demons will remain a contender when it’s over.  On current form, that one team has to be Melbourne which narrowly missed out on defeating the competition’s power house Collingwood on King's Birthday and also recently overpowered both 2024 Grand Finalists. Conversely, Port Adelaide snapped out of a four-game losing streak with a win against the Giants in Canberra. Although they will be rejuvenated following that victory, their performances during that run of losses were sub par and resulted in some embarrassing blow out defeats.

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

    • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

      The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Collingwood

      Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.
