One of my pre season punts was on Norf to have the least wins in the comp.

Round about way of saying ‘wooden spooners’?

so hard to watch, even with fox commentary turned off

We still have WCE and GCS to take it to a lower standard. 

 

actually not a bad crowd, but I reckon nth fans would have thought they'd win. Noble was not happy in the box. 


Kelli Underwood is the worst commentator by the length of the flemington straight

The worst song in the last 20years. Don't see the appeal at all

I know round one is always rusty with skills especially when the weather is hot or humid, but my god skills so far this round have been subpar. We stand out significantly with our skills. 

 

Gee, Mundy's still a quality player. Could give 400 games a nudge if he wants to play on next year and if his form holds up.

Watching Adelaide and Freo attempting to kick footballs…

Watching the Hawthorn and North game reminder me so much of 2009 Melbourne when we would battle other bottom 4 teams.

Game littered with skill errors, but was fast and exciting at times.

The Crows are [censored] !!!!

And ...... I have a good punt going on Freo!!!!

They will battle it out with Norf and Hawks for the spoon.

Agree hence why I listen to the radio when she commentates

Can't watch Freo and Adelaide. Kelli Underwood spoils it for me. Kelli is a commentator at best not a game caller.

Kelli can tell you where the players were born but not where the ball is.

Since when does it mean the Adelaide side is playing the corridor when clearly the are kicking it along the wing 

Since when do Adelaide" open their account "by kicking their second goal

I reckon BT has his name permanently etched on the "Worst Commentator " award!

This will be a demolition, especially if Freo continue to kick straight. 
Adelaide are woeful.

I just don't get the appeal. It is such a terrible "song". 

Freo got on the cans at halftime 

21 frees to 9 Crows way. That's a fair leg up.

Freo can't kick straight.  It'll cost them

Lobb's ball drop is atrocious for a forward, or any player for that matter.

On Saturday the Suns, buoyed by 3 wins on the trot, face the Dockers in a clash crucial for both teams' aspirations this season. The Suns want to solidify their Top 4 standing whilst the Dockers will be desperate to break into the 8.

  • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

    The media has performed a complete reversal in its coverage of the Melbourne Football Club over the past month and a half. Having endured intense criticism from all quarters in the press, which continually identified new avenues for scrutiny of every aspect, both on and off the field, and prematurely speculated about the departures of coaches, players, officials, and various employees from a club that lost its first five matches and appeared out of finals contention, the narrative has suddenly shifted to one of unbridled optimism.  The Demons have won five of their last six matches, positioning themselves just one game (and a considerable amount of percentage) outside the top eight at the halfway mark of the season. They still trail the primary contenders and remain far from assured of a finals berth.

  • 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.
