Melbourne approached the game like millionaires and paid the price. It was also a day of infamy for the umpires.

    I would be really p*ssed off if we didn’t give this mob a real pasting after that performance in Adelaide.

    It would be a really nice way to lead into finals.

    As much as I'd love to belt the Crows, and we really should, because it's the right thing to do, I'll take an honest win that doesn't cost us any injuries. It also means we stay on top and the game against the Cats is for the minor premiership!

    I get why but Bb dropped after three games earlier this was in hindsight a big mistake.

    H2o under the bridge and im glad hes had time to run into form.

    As Richardson said last night, not many blokes who have kicked sixty plus three years in a row.

    Big game and statement from him coming up v the crows.

    • 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.
