[censored] I wish the Weed was as good as Curnow…

Could’ve grabbed McKay too (one of the few mistakes JT has made).

    Then we wouldn't have had the glory of Tom McDonalds after the siren goal in the Grand Final.

    (surely a trivia question this year at your local pub trivia...)

    Can see why we got rid of Hannan.

    He isn’t surrounded by much. Naughton aside their forwardline is full of plodders. 
    Instead of constantly stocking up their midfield they should have gone and found some defenders and forwards.

    Essendon on the bottom 🤣 Hope the lions do a number on them. There leading goal kicker is out for covid reasons. By the way how came they don't have to travel until round 9, yet we as reigning premiers we have to travel r2.

    Love Essendon on the bottom, but the travel thing, I don't care that we travel (I used to hate it), but now we are just as scary on the road as we are at home. Every team fears/respects us anywhere, I think it is amazing that we are now easily the best travelling side. Anywhere anytime as Max says. Kudos again to the coaching team for making this a strength.

    Goal of the year from Hannan. Give me that marvel over any dumb dribbler from the boundary.

    Big difference between Carlton this year and Melbourne last year.  Carlton cannot play much better then they are at the moment, Melbourne last year had heaps of upside to come.

    This is the problem with playing hectic footy. It’s unsustainable for four quarters. Carlton look so tired and are incredibly lucky Dogs can’t kick a goal.

    • 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.

    • CASEY: Coburg

      The Casey Demons returned to their home ground which was once a graveyard for opposing teams but they managed to gift the four points on offer to Coburg with yet another of their trademark displays of inaccuracy in front of goals and some undisciplined football that earned the displeasure of the umpires late in the game. The home team was welcomed by a small crowd at Casey Fields and looked right at home as it dominated the first three quarters and led for all bar the last five minutes of the game. In the end, they came away with nothing, despite winning everywhere but on the scoreboard and the free kick count.

    • PREGAME: Rd 18 vs North Melbourne

      After four weeks on the road the Demons make their long awaited return to the MCG next Sunday to play in a classic late season dead rubber against the North Melbourne Kangaroos. Who comes in and who comes out?

    • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

      The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.
