OMac playing well, at least. Don't think he's lost a contest and has looked far more proactive.

No he has fumbled easy balls causing our attacks to break down and kick has been shocking. A player with better awareness would have touhced the ball on the line.

West Coast a class above. Whenever finals come round, they'll be front and centre, just so much talent from one end to the other.

They look really good don’t they.

How did the dud centre bounce straight to Naitanui not get recalled? That was just a joke.  

Because it didn't bounce to Gawn

Alex Neal Bullen 1 disposal that quarter.

Someone again tell me what he brings to this side??

Thought we might struggle a bit. You can't name Bedford and Pickett as debutantes and keep ANB in without a worry.

Losing only one game for the season (given this will probably be the last game) is pretty good isn't it!

what a p*** poor effort, eagles chip the ball around with ease as our players playing meters away from or behind their opponents. another 6 or 7 weeks off may help our players to hand pass and kick the ball to their team mates. To think i have been waiting months for this game to come along.

depressing first quarter

 

I remembered watching the Adelaide game and thinking what have they changed in terms of forward set up and tactics, the answer watching that quarter is absolutely nothing. 

Still long bombing it to outnumbered contests instead of lowering the eyes. Are the forwards leading to space, demanding the ball? (Question not criticism)

Seriously we are playing against one of the best defences, don’t drop it on their heads!!!

He's fumbled it twice and still takes 5 years to get foot to ball. But yes, positive!

We've still got no system delivering into and performing in the forward line. 
Seems like poor coaching

If we’d kicked straight, and they kicked crookedly, we’d be well in front, despite Gawn losing hit outs to Nicnat.

Nullify Gawn, nullify MFC. It's too easy for the opposition to figure out.

He runs all day? ?‍♂️

And then he does that ?‍♂️

Only saw the least 5-10 minutes.  
Looked so like 2020 .... randoM inside 50s .... no goals.

Opposution easy systematic inside 50s .... easy goals. 
 

What have we learned?


Forward entry looks like we are still playing 2019 season. Not the start anyone wanted.

 

Pretty pizz poor so far.

Would it be wrong and insensitive to want the player's to start needlessly coughing and sneezing?

Would give us some more time and space ?

Horrendous. We have learned nothing and improved nowhere.

  • 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.
