Hibberd can't hold a mark. Butter fingers tonight. 

I reckon the ground and ball are slippery  

Hibbo is still finished.

    Lockhart has been our best player.

    Uses the ball extremely well.

    We’ve lost the plot the last few minutes 

    Rather lose it now than in two weeks time.

    Hibberd looks a shadow of his 2017/18 self.

    Nice goal from Jack!

    Other than being a former All Australian.. what exactly does Hibberd contribute to the team?

    If the round one choice is between him and Lockhart, the choice is pretty clear.

    Tomlinson kick was a shocker, but it wouldn't have had to happen had ANB not fluffed a simple kick in the first place.

    I’d say Salem in Hibbo out. 
    We miss Salem’s kicking.

    Neal-Bullen continues to be a chain killer.  Every period of good clean possession ends when he gets it.

    It's either a fumble or a ridiculous attempt at a handball.

    arguably best on ground

    I honestly don't know what to make of that first half.

    We've done some good stuff... but have been terrible frustrating at the same time.  

    Our usage forward of centre continues to be a problem, as do our skills (although the dew doesn't help), but then I feel as though we look terrific defensively and when it all 'clicks'  I can see us putting multiple goals together in quick succession.

    I feel more positive than negative but we'll need to improve to have a shot at the Eagles in Round 1 at this stage. 


     Neither team could hit the water if they fell out of a boat tonight 

     

    Hibberd another shocker he's close to being out of my side. Tomlinson, Langdon and Petracca playing well.

    • REPORT: Adelaide

      The atmosphere at the Melbourne Football Club at the beginning of the season was aspirational following an injury-plagued year in 2024. Coach Simon Goodwin had lofty expectations with the return of key players, the anticipated improvement from a maturing group with a few years of experience under their belts, and some exceptional young talent also joining the ranks. All of that went by the wayside as the team failed to click into action early on. It rallied briefly with a new strategy but has fallen again with five more  consecutive defeats.

    • CASEY: Coburg

      The Casey Demons returned to their home ground which was once a graveyard for opposing teams but they managed to gift the four points on offer to Coburg with yet another of their trademark displays of inaccuracy in front of goals and some undisciplined football that earned the displeasure of the umpires late in the game. The home team was welcomed by a small crowd at Casey Fields and looked right at home as it dominated the first three quarters and led for all bar the last five minutes of the game. In the end, they came away with nothing, despite winning everywhere but on the scoreboard and the free kick count.

    • PREGAME: Rd 18 vs North Melbourne

      After four weeks on the road the Demons make their long awaited return to the MCG next Sunday to play in a classic late season dead rubber against the North Melbourne Kangaroos. Who comes in and who comes out?

    • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

      The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.
