    Nearly 100 possessions between Oliver, Petracca and Salem.

    Hardly a surprise we dominated (minus in front of goal)

    We've got to take our chances going forward. We weren't perfect, but the scoreline flattered the Saints. But wth half a forward line, and now 2-0 it's a great outcome. Can't ask for more than that, we can only get better from here!

    Man I love beating the Saints!

    Oh and go Kossie! ELECTRIC!

    We played bloody well... except we couldn’t nail goals. If we did, it would have been a thrashing.

    Nice to see our midfield back dominating. Backline is still a thing of beauty. Tomlinson was just wonderful. 
     

    If we can keep scraping out wins until we get Brown on the field... look out! 

    Or hold marks.

    Good to get the win. 19 behinds is deplorable though, and letting Howard just amble back and take intercept marks is poor form. We need a forward line. Good to see Petracca lower his eyes inside 50 at times, hopefully some of the others saw that and realise that it can be done. Its basic football and we are beyond pathetic at delivering inside 50. Good signs from a lot of players (mostly those not in the forward line). Majority team effort.

    [censored] Yea!!!!! Always good to knock off a side that rate themselves way too much.

    Ugly footy at times and bad in front of goal, but went three goals down and came back as well as holding off a couple of Saints charges.  Have grown as a group, in past years were out of the contest by 3/4 time.

    Well I thought we would be out paced and out coached.

    I am glad to admit I was wrong. 

    Well done MFC.

    We obliterated them in every single way except for the score, we flattered them massively with our poor kicking for goal. It will cost us games if it doesn’t get fixed, once against Freo for first game back you can forgive, second time in a row starts to build a pattern.

    Scrappy win, not complaining, convert a third of our missed shots and its a 40-50 point win.

    End of mini rant go and get plastered.

    Played tough when we needed, and the skills in the first half were excellent but for goal kicking. Only fell off when the pressure dropped... 

    Good win with plenty to work on. I’ll take it.

    Only watched 2nd half and we put together some really positive chains of ball movement. Skills let us down a fair bit though (dropped about 5 sitter marks, kicking was poor as well), topped with some bad finishing and it took a bit of shine off a really good win. Should have been 40+. Kozzy looking really special in the middle. 


    Go Dees.

    Awesome win. Saints are a good team and Pickett one day will take a screamer. It's a good start & just builds confidence.

    Bring on the giants next week.

    • 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.
