Tigers have certainly got the rub of the green with the umpires, but we got away with 2 frees there ?

Hit more targets when under no pressure, and hold a few more chest marks, we win by 6 goals. 

Salem. Wow.

Hibbo. Wow.

We MUST keep Dusty out of the game - he can change it off his own foot in a 5 min burst.

Great 2nd quarter

Survived the early ambush. 2 forward half pressing teams. They got the jump early and we've got the ascendancy at the moment. Centre clearances so important

Luke Jackson has been great.. the pressure he and Gawn are bringing is unbelievable for two giants.

Hes holding his marks and is reading the play so well.

This guy will be a star.

It's been said before and I'll say it again.
The umpiring is a disgrace.

Other than that I'm forkin' feeling it boys.

Now is the time, the players must believe. 
they weathered a huge storm in the first Quarter, we were shell shocked, and then were able to get momentum back and kick away. 
this is the moment MFC Keep the foot down

Giving them no space whatsoever and getting on top of much of the stoppage play and one on ones.

Gawn, LJ, Gus, Salem, Tmac and Hibb were immense that quarter.  We are also beating them on the outside game.  They arent precise anywhere on the ground other than looking dangerous coming inside 50 which is to be expected given the quality talls.

How good are we at responding to pressure these days.

We just soak it up and then spit it back in spades.

Yep, Hibbo has been really good. Dusty will still have an impact, it is just about mitigating it and Pig is doing that very well...super physical.

I am so impressed again with us giving up an early lead and the.lm managing to re-group. This team has not been capable of that until this season.

foot on the throat time now...go Dees!

So Dusty can be tagged after all. Brilliant work Hibbo.

Pretty sure he’s done it before

    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

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the
