Some funny vision was Spargo sitting on the bench and has a chat on the phone.  Was it to the Coach?  'Cos Goody was sitting right behind him (also on the phone).  LOL

    Saw this quote tonight which I thought you would all enjoy:

    If you want to measure an angle, use a protractor.  If you want to win a game, use a Petracca.

    Saw that at the time and had a chuckle but I don't think it was Goodwin, I think he handed that off to Richo in the box and was listening in.

    Did Goodwin make enough changes for everyone's liking? Or did he have nothing to do with the win? Just thought I'd check in with the 'sack Goodwin' mafia on here

    .....you could tell by the crowd reaction i reckon..

     Have a look at the Melbourne girl with the flag saying its a goal, it's a goal. Made me laugh out loud and the goal umpire agreed.

    Richardson in the box

     That was an ugly win, but we’ve had two ugly losses to cats and bears so it’s all swings and roundabouts

    Saints recruiters would be feeling a bit flat about that draft you would think.

    When they got hold of us, it was because we backed off the gut running.  As soon as we lifted this rating, they had nowhere to go.  We actually showed that they are a one trick pony, and you will see other teams go to school of that.

    Thought we had a system that help up.  Our basic skills let us down often, but the effort got us back into it.  Several performances to like, but the defense was superb and Trac is awesome.  Max made a difference, even though he had a tough competition in the middle and looked a little proppy.  Viney tea high 6 tackles.  Kozzi needs to commit and keep his feet. Waiting for the oppo to take the ball then tackle them (then going to ground) is not a winning strategy.

    I am so happy for Steven May. I hope the media give him the credit he deserves. He has been outstanding all season and tonight he was just so reliable. 

    Langdon is becoming a very good player. I can see why we wanted him. 

    Trac set it up beautifully in the 1st quarter. 

    I'm just happy. It's a relief to get a win and against a team that was above us.

    Fair call. Maybe not Jones but his Wagmer call was good.

     Ratten should go back to Carlton he doesn't belong in St.Kilda. Cleary his eyesight is gone, I saw it over the line and called a goal but why wasn't it paid a mark it was wasnt it or do I have Rattens glasses on. Close to goal of the year. 

    Best user name on this forum, just quietly

    So, just curious - is there anyone who still questions the value of recruiting Steven May?

    May is a jet...and if we take a King we (probably?) don’t take Jackson...I’m content

    • CASEY: Geelong

      There was a time in the second quarter of the game at the Cattery on Friday afternoon when the Casey Demons threatened to take the game apart against the Cats. The Demons had been well on top early but were struggling to convert their ascendancy over the ground until Tom Fullarton’s burst of three goals in the space of eight minutes on the way to a five goal haul and his best game for the club since arriving from Brisbane at the end of 2023. He was leading, marking and otherwise giving his opponents a merry dance as Casey grabbed a three goal lead in the blink of an eye. Fullarton has now kicked ten goals in Casey’s three matches and, with Melbourne’s forward conversion woes, he is definitely in with a chance to get his first game with the club in next week’s Gather Round in Adelaide. Despite the tall forward’s efforts - he finished with 19 disposals and eight marks and had four hit outs as back up to Will Verrall in the second half - it wasn’t enough as Geelong reigned in the lead through persistent attacks and eventually clawed their way to the lead early in the last and held it till they achieved the end aim of victory.

    • REPORT: Geelong

      I was disappointed to hear Goody say at his post match presser after the team’s 39 point defeat against Geelong that "we're getting high quality entry, just poor execution" because Melbourne’s problems extend far beyond that after its 0 - 4 start to the 2025 football season. There are clearly problems with poor execution, some of which were evident well before the current season and were in play when the Demons met the Cats in early May last year and beat them in a near top-of-the-table clash that saw both sides sitting comfortably in the top four after round eight. Since that game, the Demons’ performances have been positively Third World with only five wins in 19 games with a no longer majestic midfield and a dysfunctional forward line that has become too easy for opposing coaches to counter. This is an area of their game that is currently being played out as if they were all completely panic-stricken.

    • PREGAME: Essendon

      Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

    • NON-MFC: Round 04

      Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?
