What a dam shame we got Meth Coke before they left home...

When was the last time we played West Coast at the G?

Fixture indeed.

    About a minute before Jeremy Howe’s injury, I was just saying how much we could do with him at Melbourne and how he was far superior to anyone we have in our defence, then ... 

    True Jack but let's never forget Howe walked on us. Or at least he and his manager made it impossible for him to stay.

    Starting to look like Charlie Dixon is the standout tall forward of the season, and by a significant margin.

    Although, horrifyingly, Ben King might be his main rival at present.

    Come on T.Mac, come on Weid, there's a loose All-Australian spot up for grabs for any tall forward who actually kicks goals this year!

    Let's remember we tried to get rid of him a year before to GWS.

    We are above west coast on the ladder and played two less games. 
     

    Let that sink in. ?

    I just realised that today's games are like some kind of special championship event featuring all the teams where the only thing I care about is the particularly disliked teams losing!

    I checked the season guide and sure enough, the AFL have this marked in as 'shaudenfreude round'.

    Ports drafting the last few years has been top notch.  They have some serious young talent.

     

    Reckon Rivers, Kozzie and Jackson are our “nailed it at the draft table“ year

    Saints running hard both ways and good disposal.

    What a difference it makes!

    Theyre also not having 3 players getting sucked into tackling one opponent.

    Go saints.

    I'm glad I saw your comment, because I'd written it off and just flicked it on in time to catch the Butler and Bolton goals and for the first time this season outside watching Demons a game is holding my attention!

    And they took Duursma,  who would have looked good in RednBlue.

    We're not so bad... if Tim Membrey can jag 3 against the reigning premiers...

    It is hard to pick a winner this season. These shorter quarters are stuffing things up nicely. I don't think we will do any good out of them. We trained well over summer but the fast handballing skills are not there. We would do much better with a normal game time. Hope I am wrong.

    • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.

    • PREVIEW: North Melbourne

      Can you believe it? After a long period of years over which Melbourne has dominated in matches against North Melbourne, the Demons are looking down the barrel at two defeats at the hands of the Kangaroos in the same season. And if that eventuates, it will come hot on the heels of an identical result against the Gold Coast Suns. How have the might fallen? There is a slight difference in that North Melbourne are not yet in the same place as Gold Coast. Like Melbourne, they are currently situated in the lower half of the ladder and though they did achieve a significant upset when the teams met earlier in the season, their subsequent form has been equally unimpressive and inconsistent.

    • 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.
