North are a horrible team. If we can’t pull away there is no point in trying to make finals

    Weideman is not there to tackle. His role is to mark or neutralize contests. That’s his forward pressure. And he has done it very well. 
     

    On top of, tackles recorded are only those which cause the ball to spill. In the forward 50 you might lay 5 tackles in a sequence with building pressure but only the last tackle that causes the spill is actually listed as a tackle.

    Kick it!!!!

     

    Even Uncle Byron is upset about the umpiring! TRIP!

    Maybe I'm alone here but this looks like a good team simply frumbling its way through a match against poor opposition. I'm okay with how we are playing so long as we steady. We are better than North but you just know they will pull a few goals out of their [censored].

    There are no stoppages!  The players are going to be cooked after this.

    Blowout by someone in the last quarter for sure, hope it's us!

    Vandenberg has been terrible tonight.

      The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?

      A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.

    • GAMEDAY: Fremantle

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons return to the MCG wounded, undermanned and desperate. Still searching for their first win of the season, Melbourne faces a daunting task against the Fremantle Dockers. With key pillars missing at both ends of the ground, the Dees must find a way to rise above the adversity and ignite their season before it slips way beyond reach. Will today be the spark that turns it all around, or are we staring down the barrel of a 0–6 start?

    • PREVIEW: Fremantle

      A month is a long time in AFL football. The proof of this is in the current state of the two teams contesting against each other early this Saturday afternoon at the MCG. It’s hard to fathom that when Melbourne and Fremantle kicked off the 2025 season, the former looked like being a major player in this year’s competition after it came close to beating one of the favourites in the GWS Giants while the latter was smashed by Geelong to the tune of 78 points and looked like rubbish. Fast forward to today and the Demons are low on confidence and appear panic stricken as their winless streak heads towards an even half dozen and pressure mounts on the coach and team leadership.  Meanwhile, the Dockers have recovered their composure and now sit in the top eight. They are definitely on the up and up and look most likely winners this weekend against a team which they have recently dominated and which struggles to find enough passages to the goals to trouble the scorers. And with that, Fremantle will head to the MCG, feeling very good about itself after demolishing Richmond in the Barossa Valley with Josh Treacy coming off a six goal haul and facing up to a Melbourne defence already without Jake Lever and a shaky Steven May needing to pass a fitness test just to make it onto the field of play.
