Yep, ideal result for us really. Would have spent a lot of petrol tickets and got the win to escape scrutiny and maybe rest on their laurels.

Yes. Indeed. We must go hard

If this is the best Geelong can do against this mob its going to be horrible for them next week.

Agree. I’m starting to feel a 4-0 season start .

Haha Frosty showed why we were happy to get rid of him. Continues to run around like a headless Chook and butcher the footy with that last kick.

I hope we have learnt from this short chipping keepings off crap these mugs have served up over the years.

Put them in their place Dees.

 

Geelong are absolutely beatable next week.

They haven't looked that good in any of their three games so far. They don't play a style that traditionally scares us (i.e. they play slow), and Hawkins aside they don't have a forward line that scares me. They set up well behind the ball but the way we have moved the ball so far this year, I think we're capable of scoring against them.

Game played right to the last minute, big hits, injuries, hot day, extra day break, all the perfect ingredients of fatigue.

Beautiful.

[censored], you would have to start scrolling the record books for the first 4-0 start in MFC history.

I'd say somewhere in the 50's or 60's

Agree they are gettable.  Need to keep the speed in the game, and respond to their short kicking bs (that drove me nuts when we played them last year).  Dominate the forward half play, have better method going forward and use more speed and we can split them open.  Need to be disciplined as the umps love them and they are a bunch of ducking snipers.

1994. Which is also our last 5-0 start.

Edit: unless you actually mean our first, which was in 1897.

Oh frosty I was sad when you left but watching our backline and how they have started and seeing you do vital errors today I really don't miss you now. 

Obviously stopping Hawkins is so vital next week but confident May can step up. I'm hoping Jezza does not play. 

anyway it was a good game but dumb turnovers in the final quarter wrecked it for hawthorn.

Big crop arrived at Port Geelong last night, i hear..

They really know how to milk and play for free kicks. The bastards obviously train for it

Definitely Scott's influence (along with Selwood). They probably justify it by the 'whatever it takes' mantra

If Geelong employ the same rope a dope tactics against us we’ll win. We have a proper set-up now behind the ball so they won’t be able to counter. We cover them easily in the match-ups around the ground as well.

We will need to be ready for their s**those tactics though. They will duck, dive, pinch, poke and do whatever it takes to knock us off our stride. They really are a very dislikeable team.

Yep. They know exactly what they need to do to win, and they will push it beyond the limits 

(Watch the Guthrie Goal in the first Quarter) the new rule is far from perfect, the concept is great. But Guthrie exploited it to the max. 
They scraped through and got 4 points

Higgins out is massive, he’s the kind of player that tends to cut us up.

Higgins is done...he's had very little influence in the first 3 games, just a couple of nice cameo's.

Collecting his pension down at the Cats...at least it's not us.

No excuses whatsoever next Sunday 

We play hard and fast Footy for 4 Quarters, we win

IF we switched on 4quarters every week we would win every week.  Doing better but still a way to go.

    The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.

  • PREVIEW: North Melbourne

    Can you believe it? After a long period of years over which Melbourne has dominated in matches against North Melbourne, the Demons are looking down the barrel at two defeats at the hands of the Kangaroos in the same season. And if that eventuates, it will come hot on the heels of an identical result against the Gold Coast Suns. How have the might fallen? There is a slight difference in that North Melbourne are not yet in the same place as Gold Coast. Like Melbourne, they are currently situated in the lower half of the ladder and though they did achieve a significant upset when the teams met earlier in the season, their subsequent form has been equally unimpressive and inconsistent.

  • REPORT: Adelaide

    The atmosphere at the Melbourne Football Club at the beginning of the season was aspirational following an injury-plagued year in 2024. Coach Simon Goodwin had lofty expectations with the return of key players, the anticipated improvement from a maturing group with a few years of experience under their belts, and some exceptional young talent also joining the ranks. All of that went by the wayside as the team failed to click into action early on. It rallied briefly with a new strategy but has fallen again with five more  consecutive defeats.
