Our defenders having a nice rest 😁

 

Ttacc's IQ coming inside 50....very costly

    Too slow to react there

    Dees pressure on Cameron's around-the-body was perfect. 

    Max took the mark (tallest man on the ground), and two of our fastest manned the play-on. Cameron misses.

    Could have claimed a prelim berth...shocking kicking but thats us I guess.

    Credit for the domination.

    I like 2nd quarter Cameron much more than 1st quarter Cameron. 

    If not for some atrocious goal kicking, that was great to watch. Well on top. Great footy to watch.

    That was much better. We could have killed this game if we kicked straight. Game is still there to be won but we are doing very well. Brisbane will reset and come out firing. 
    We must come out strong after half time.

    Fantastic quarter. A player who has really impressed me is ANB. His endurance running has been excellent and his kicking is improving out of sight. It isn't the first time he's performed in a final.

    Lions went out to hard in the beginning.  I expect them to regroup after half time. Not over yet.

    5 goals up at half time.
    Gotta be happy with that.

    Still, this game would be over if we kicked straight that qr.
    One sacrificial goat not enough for finals obviously.
    2 next game.

    With straight kicking it almost could’ve been. But I’ll definitely take the 30 points at 1/2 time

    Should be 12.7 or 13.6 and game over

    Maybe we are scared of leading by 44 points, after last week.

    If Trac could kick this would be done. His kicking technique is nasty.

    Just need that belief in front of goals, the tentative vibe is creeping through the whole team and it's been an issue all year.

    Brilliant behind the ball and loving our contest work.

    Just focus on winning this quarter and we've got it.

    • CASEY: Geelong

      There was a time in the second quarter of the game at the Cattery on Friday afternoon when the Casey Demons threatened to take the game apart against the Cats. The Demons had been well on top early but were struggling to convert their ascendancy over the ground until Tom Fullarton’s burst of three goals in the space of eight minutes on the way to a five goal haul and his best game for the club since arriving from Brisbane at the end of 2023. He was leading, marking and otherwise giving his opponents a merry dance as Casey grabbed a three goal lead in the blink of an eye. Fullarton has now kicked ten goals in Casey’s three matches and, with Melbourne’s forward conversion woes, he is definitely in with a chance to get his first game with the club in next week’s Gather Round in Adelaide. Despite the tall forward’s efforts - he finished with 19 disposals and eight marks and had four hit outs as back up to Will Verrall in the second half - it wasn’t enough as Geelong reigned in the lead through persistent attacks and eventually clawed their way to the lead early in the last and held it till they achieved the end aim of victory.

    • REPORT: Geelong

      I was disappointed to hear Goody say at his post match presser after the team’s 39 point defeat against Geelong that "we're getting high quality entry, just poor execution" because Melbourne’s problems extend far beyond that after its 0 - 4 start to the 2025 football season. There are clearly problems with poor execution, some of which were evident well before the current season and were in play when the Demons met the Cats in early May last year and beat them in a near top-of-the-table clash that saw both sides sitting comfortably in the top four after round eight. Since that game, the Demons’ performances have been positively Third World with only five wins in 19 games with a no longer majestic midfield and a dysfunctional forward line that has become too easy for opposing coaches to counter. This is an area of their game that is currently being played out as if they were all completely panic-stricken.

    • PREGAME: Essendon

      Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

    • NON-MFC: Round 04

      Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?
