Right now, Joel Smith's performance against Cameron is stacking up pretty well.

    this is turning into an entertaining shootout, way better than last nights bore fest

    To be fair watching grass grow was also more entertaining than last night’s disgraceful display of football.

    This game is a lot like the Dees/Lions game from last week so far, except the Lions are scoring more in a high-scoring game where Melbourne was able to keep ahead of the highest scoring team last week.

    The Dogs are the laziest side on turnovers. Just do not defend or spread at all. Their game plan falls apart if they aren’t winning clearances comprehensively.

    Any direction.

    Running one way then back the other doesn’t cancel itself out.

    Yes. Sadly changing direction often leads to umpires paying the free even if the total distance travelled isn’t too much.

    You clearly see the umpire head down looking at the line not the play. Waste of time for review.

    Entertaining game but skills are not the best. Port will be having a good laugh now.

    Cameron is a first quarter specialist. 

    Small sample size. Getting on top of the Melbourne defence is basically impossible. Let's see what he can do for this quarter and the rest of the game.

    I'm torn. As much as I'd like to see Brisbane win I've already exceeded my limit of hearing John Denver for this century.

    Just noted Hawkins and Selwood had 'incidents' looked at by our very special Mike Christian and as usual, they l walked away Scott free....

    Umpire 22 doing finals is not ok. I assume coz he’s in Brisbane he will go to Adelaide next week? No time to quarantine in WA?

    • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

      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.
