Max just look for the short lateral or handball pls ....another ****ty turnover and goal from our own poor disposal

 

5 entries for 3 scoring shots.

 

Clear HTB not paid again.

Why not holding the ball again?

It’s a dead set lottery 

 

We sold our future for this defense. GC can just stroll in whenever they like. 5 forward 50 entries by them for 2 goals this quarter. Lucky our midfield is actually working hard, even if it just hacks it up in the air.


Garry Lyon needs to be excommunicated from the club completely

    Holding the ball rule changes from week to week, game to game, quarter to quarter.

    I wish our kicking skills would get excommunicated from the club too.

    Lack of forward pressure has dropped in the last 5 mins. Need to keep that up.

    Why do our players try and take it from the oppositions hands when the ump is about to pay holding the ball!!!???

    Because they don't pay it very often.

    There should be a rule, if our midfielder have nothing on offer, hold onto the ball and draw players until there is something on offer. Just rushed players. If you're going to play chaos ball at least teach your players to hit targets and not just bomb.


    If you ever needed evidence that Clarry needs to find some finesse and finish in the middle...somehow.... that was it.  Had a paddock in front, very little pressure and still manages to kick it into the player's back straight in front of him

    • 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.
