Clear lift in effort in the middle that quarter. But still lost the CP count.

-12 CPs, -12 hit outs, even in clearances, but the telling stat, +12 in inside 50s for a 5-point lead.

Melksham's putting in yet another half-hearted shocker. Fritsch is nowhere. Jones took a quarter to get going. vandenBerg and Harmes are making too many errors. May's a step behind where he was last week. TMac's not a ruckman and not working into it.

Petracca, Weideman, Oliver and Lever are carrying us at the moment. We have a lot of room for improvement and should, if we have any self-respect, win this game well.

Bring back O'Mac. He's a role-player, and the defensive structure seems to work that much better, which is where their goals are coming from (breakdowns in the backline).

Spargo also playing a good game.

But unfortunately you won't see that on here.

Thought Jonesy had a ripper quarter with some nice goal assists.

 Im loving Spargo back in.

Trac too strong as is Weid.

Would like Milkshake and Fritta  to get involved more and the umps less.

Spargo is a footballer in a team that plays rugby union

Soooooo many missed free kicks to us that quarter.  Kossie being held on to was so obvious.  Then how many times did we have them holding/dropping the ball and not have it paid.  Were taken high - play on.

I know our goal kicking has let us down a bit, but for crying out loud.

North do not deserve to be in this game.

Jones really lifted that quarter.

Can't say the same for skipper Melksham..

Rivers also showing plenty.

Maybe that umpires  (not sure what number) but maybe his whistle is broken and thats why we aren't getting fks

That last goal they got was very annoying.

Lever leaving his opponent, May not getting a fist to the ball and then Rivers not making the tackle. 

All over them but unfortunately the scoreboard doesn't reflect it. If we want to make finals we need to take the percentage today.

Same umpires as crows game same umpiring. 9-1 first quarter now 10-2 .

That is fair enough Redleg but gee over the course of the year and even those games we've had some discipline issues.

Spargo is finding space and using his strengths to advantage.

Vision and delivery inside 50. It's a huge weakness in our game that he is capable of fixing if he is at his best

enjoying his game.

    HIGHLIGHTS/LOWLIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Melbourne traveled across the continent to take on the Fremantle Dockers in sweltering conditions at Mandurah south of Perth in a game that delivered the club both its highlight and its lowlight in the first minute.  But first, let’s start by doing away with the usual cliches used in connection with the game. It was just a practice match and the result didn’t matter. Bad kicking is bad football. The game was played in severe heat, the swirly breeze played havoc with both teams resulting in

    TRAINING: Friday 28th February 2025

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers headed down to Gosch's Paddock to bring you their observations from today's training session before the Demons head off to Perth for their final Practice Match. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Beautiful morning, not much wind, more than a couple of dozen spectators.  The players were up and about, boisterous and having fun. One of their last drills were three teams competing in a hard at it, handball game in a small area. Goody

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom
