So far haven’t seen a team that I can see challenging us. 

Mick Malthouse disagrees 

 

Nasty nasty knee injury. Port are falling like flies. Not great. 

 

Some ridiculous mistakes in this game. Real howlers

I dunno. On paper they are so talented but I don’t rate their coach. They’ve had a gun team for so long but something is just NQR. 

I have it on good authority that s%^t went down badly when Davis was removed as captain in favour of a seconds player.

This game is a debacle. Horrible horrible skills. 

Agreed. The difference in quality between this game and the Sydney/GWS game earlier is night and day 

This is a real war of attrition - Port running out of players, but Hinkley is looking totally lost. 


Fun game to watch tho. Good pressure now from both teams and a tight contest.

Is the ball made of butter or something?

Hot and humid in Brissy, round 1, we were dumbly compared to the Dogs too.

Yep. So you’re just allowed to argue free kicks again with no penalty. 

They really bring the hate on themselves at times. Seriously why bring in a black and white rule then officiate it with all manner of grey immediately

I like how Sydney plays a lot. They’re hard and have skilful youngsters. If they can keep their top players on the park this year, they could go deep into finals. 

I'm not sure about the mini ponytail Mitch Robinson is sporting

Yeah I thought they were one of our toughest games last year and with a years improvement into their younger players I think they will be a real danger this season. 


God imagine languishing in the dreaded Sunday time slot in round 1…. What a terrible triple header. 
Hawks are irrelevant already.

Definitely. We didn’t win by much from memory. They play like a seasoned team in the attitude they have in that, they don’t seem to drop their heads and they just keep coming at you regardless of the score. Which is pretty impressive considering how young they are.

based on what i've seen so far this weekend, Norf are warm favourites to finish top 4.

  • REPORT: Sydney

    A few weeks ago, I visited a fellow Melbourne Football Club supporter in hospital, and our conversation inevitably shifted from his health diagnosis to the well-being of our football team. Like him, Melbourne had faced challenges in recent months, but an intervention - in his case, surgery, and in the team's case, a change in game style - had brought about much improvement.  The team's professionals had altered its game style from a pedestrian and slow-moving approach, which yielded an average of merely 60 points for five winless games, to a faster and more direct style. This shift led to three consecutive wins and a strong competitive effort in the fourth game, albeit with a tired finish against Hawthorn, a strong premiership contender.  As we discussed our team's recent health improvement, I shared my observations on the changes within the team, including the refreshed style, the introduction of new young talent, such as rising stars Caleb Windsor, Harvey Langford, and Xavier Lindsay, and the rebranding of Kozzy Pickett from a small forward to a midfield machine who can still get among the goals. I also highlighted the dominance of captain Max Gawn in the ruck and the resurgence in form in a big way of midfield superstars Christian Petracca and Clayton Oliver.

  • POSTGAME: Sydney

    The Demons controlled the contest from the outset, though inaccurate kicking kept the Swans in the game until half time. But after the break, Melbourne put on the jets and blew Sydney away and the demolition job was complete.

  • CASEY: Northern Bullants

    The Casey Demons travelled to a windy Cramer Street, Preston yesterday and blew the Northern Bullants off the ground for three quarters before shutting up shop in the final term, coasting to a much-needed 71-point victory after leading by almost 15 goals at one stage. It was a pleasing performance that revived the Demons’ prospects for the 2025 season but, at the same time, very little can be taken from the game because of the weak opposition. These days, the Bullants are little more than road kill. The once proud club, situated behind the Preston Market in a now culturally diverse area, is currently facing significant financial and on-field challenges, having failed to secure a win to date in 2025.

  • GAMEDAY: Sydney

    It’s Game Day, and the Demons have a golden opportunity to build on last week’s stirring win by toppling Sydney at the MCG. A victory today would keep them firmly in the hunt for a finals spot and help them stay in touch with the pack chasing a place in the Top 8. Can the Dees make it two in a row and bring down the Swans?
