Moving Baker forward is proving a smart move. Castagna unsighted the last two weeks

    I want the Dogs beaten so we can have a shot at top spot.

    Pretty straight forward I would’ve thought.

    On the other hand I don’t like seeing the Tiges win and the more games we put between ourselves and them the better I will feel. They’re not in form at the moment but they are liable to click and put a run of games together which could be enough to make Top 4. I’d prefer if they finished in the lower half of the 8. I'd prefer not to face them at all in September.

    This lot has played Norf and Sun gods, soft kills no wonder the have the best attack and defence.

    What did you think of our 56K odd last week?

    Better than the 52,000 tonight.

    It’s Richmond’s home game and they have 100,000 members apparently.

    It’s a Friday night.

    Perfect weather in Melbourne all day.

    Playing against the undefeated Bulldogs.

    The tigers are getting a decent run from the umpires 

    Makes up for the first half, though I do hate when that happens.

    Very lenient on incorrect disposal tonight I've noticed.

    Do you mean when a play has or has not had prior opportunity.

    Remember, when a player has not had prior opportunity they only need to attempt to dispose of the ball.

    Remmeber, when a player has not had prior opportunity they only need to attempt to dispose of the ball.

    I'll take more notice, but instances that would have been a free last year or even last week seem, in my mind anyway, to be play on tonight.  Could be imagining things.

    • 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.

    • CASEY: Coburg

      The Casey Demons returned to their home ground which was once a graveyard for opposing teams but they managed to gift the four points on offer to Coburg with yet another of their trademark displays of inaccuracy in front of goals and some undisciplined football that earned the displeasure of the umpires late in the game. The home team was welcomed by a small crowd at Casey Fields and looked right at home as it dominated the first three quarters and led for all bar the last five minutes of the game. In the end, they came away with nothing, despite winning everywhere but on the scoreboard and the free kick count.

    • PREGAME: Rd 18 vs North Melbourne

      After four weeks on the road the Demons make their long awaited return to the MCG next Sunday to play in a classic late season dead rubber against the North Melbourne Kangaroos. Who comes in and who comes out?

    • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

      The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.
