Apart from our usage inside 50, which is a bit rusty and very 2019 like, I feel like we've started quite well.

Trac in the guts has been sensational.  Loving his work.

 

Tomlinson and Langdon both looking decent.

Kozzie providing good pressure.

Jackson unsighted, but delivery going in has been poor.

Trac looking god around the ball, so hard to take down in a tackle!

Lever flying is good to see, just needs to stay fit!

We look better than them, but unless we start converting forward dominance on the scoreboard, we'll wind up losing all year again.

 

Great goal by Brown! He'll be a good pick-up as a freebie and could win our goal kicking.


Trac has it on a string. 

 

Defensive transition poor then.

Viney looks so much quicker than last year.

    We'll need to improve against teams that nail the short kicks. That entry was cakewalk for them, and then finding another player inside 50 again somehow?!

    Tomlinson looks poised 

    works between fwd and back well

    it's what the practice games are all about LT. Playing against teams that will have their own methods of countering our game-plan and adjusting accordingly.

    Langdon streaming down the wing? I like to see that.

    Brown’s second

    Great run by Langdon. We've lacked that hard running running wingman for years, and he'll be that for years to come.

    Loving Brown early.

    Umps already absolute [censored].  Thought we might get a praccie game in before that happened.


    Brown looking crafty. What a pickup.

     

    Brown infringed directly in  front misses

    • 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.

    • GAMEDAY: West Coast

      It's Game Day and the Demons have a chance to notch up their third consecutive win — something they haven’t done since Round 5, 2024. But to do it, they’ll need to exorcise the Demons of last year’s disastrous trip out West. Can the Dees continue their momentum, right the wrongs of that fateful clash, and take another step up the ladder on the road to redemption?

    • FEATURE: 1925

      A hundred years ago today, on 2 May 1925, Melbourne kicked off the new season with a 47 point victory over St Kilda to take top place on the VFL ladder after the opening round of the new season.  Top place was a relatively unknown position for the team then known as the “Fuchsias.” They had finished last in 1923 and rose by only one place in the following year although the final home and away round heralded a promise of things to come when they surprised the eventual premiers Essendon. That victory set the stage for more improvement and it came rapidly. In this series, I will tell the story of how the 1925 season unfolded for the Melbourne Football Club and how it made the VFL finals for the first time in a decade on the way to the ultimate triumph a year later.
