Question.

Were Oliver and Trac cojoined twins at some stage. They have a great symbiotic relationship.

    Don't have Kayo so am enjoying myself following this on the North bigfooty game day thread. It's very satisfying having our team talked about like this.

    A couple of times we’ve been caught out going forward with turnovers because have they been pushing back hard defensively and we are getting outnumbered .

    Melbourne's defence is hard to beat.

    they've split us open now

    Good reality check. Stops the uncalibrated preseason chugging off.

    Not a bad quarter of football but we saw about 5 minutes of play from the Dees that shows the difference between the Premiers and Wooden Spooners. They are a class above and we saw it late in that quarter.

    They move the ball quickly we were not able too

    Melbourne too strong and too good for us to play silly.

    Melbourne read the ball ahead of what we are doing as much as its about poor execution.

    We stagnate we should be playing on quickly but Melbourne don’t allow it

    Melb numbers behind the ball and numbers in front of the ball....

    We are winning out fair share of contests but the Melbourne backline is picking off everything.

    Melbourne with ascendency across the ground. Running with numbers, more numbers around the contest, cleaner with the footy.

    Melbourne are very good at smothering kicks in close

    How long till Round 1, 2023?

    They are just out working us on the spread offensively and working back a lot harder defensively. There are a lot of lessons today let’s hope we learn from them .

    We're getting crushed by melbs stronger mids.

    There are a lot of skill errors, but most of those would be because of the pressure being applied by the defending premiers.

    We just hemorrhaged 8 goals in a row and as soon as the pressure came we played like under 10s

    Their last two games were an absolute dismantling of Geelong, and then kicking 46 goals in a row to smash the Dogs and win a flag.

    Melbourne are really good

    At the ground, effort is ok skills & structure the glaring difference. 
    Seems an odd set up with the personnel we have on the field, allowing them huge outnumber behind the ball playing into their hands. likewise around the contest their positioning is much effective, better spacing allowing clearer outlets despite what looks like an extra there for us.

    It's still hard to believe what I am reading!

    Only a practice game but how good are Melbourne how bad are North or is it both.

    probably both. North haven't really fired a shot since 10 minutes into the first quarter...

      We’re back! That was fun. The Mighty Dees’ Season 10 campaign is off toa flying start with a commanding 48-point winover the Western Bulldogs, retaining the Hampson-Hardeman Cup in style. After a hard-fought first half in slippery conditions, the Dees came out in the second half and showcased their trademark superior class, piling on four goals in the third termand never looked back.

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      The final score in Saturday's game against Hawthorn was almost identical to that from their last contest three months ago. Melbourne suffered comprehensive defeats in both games, but the similarities ended there.When they met in Round 9, the Demons were resurgent, seeking to redeem themselves after a lacklustre start to the season. They approached the game with vigour and dynamism, and were highly competitive for the first three quarters, during which they were at least on par with the Hawks. In the final term, they lapsed into error and were ultimately overrun, but the final result did not accurately reflect their effort and commitment throughout the match.

    • CASEY: Box Hill

      The Casey Demons ended the regular season on a positive note and gained substantial momentum leading into the finals when they knocked the Box Hill Hawks off the top of the VFL ladder in their final round clash at Casey Fields. More importantly, they moved out of a wild card position in the finals race and secured a week's rest as they leapfrogged up the ladder into fifth place with their decisive 23-point victory over the team that had been the dominant force in the competition for most of the season.

      The final game of the 2025 Season is finally upon us and the Demons may have an opportunity to spoil the Magpies Top 4 aspirations when they face them on Friday Night. Who comes in and who goes out?

      The Demons were sloppy all day and could not stop the run and carry of the fast moving Hawthorn as the Hawks cruised to an easy 36 point win. Is the season over yet?
