This has to be the worst surface in the AFL, worse than Marvel.

You are  the biggest exaggerator in the world CB. It's still VFL Park.

Need to be a lot cleaner going inside 50. Shouldn’t be hard playing against an absolutely ****house team. Eagles are Neeld era bad and will have percentage in the 40s after today! Cmon boys put the foot down and be ruthless!

    The umpires must clearly see the elbows to the throats and neck. I don’t get why they don’t stamp it out of the game there and then.

    Too many passes that hang in the air a bit too long. If we just put our heads down the game would be much easier. They are creating more opportunities this quarter which is unacceptable.

    Kellie Underwood described Sparrow as being "concussed" by the hit he sustained early in the game. He's out there now.

    There's inaccurate and then there's just plain irresponsible. Don't describe a player as being concussed without a shred of evidence that he is.

    I'm a huge fan of the contribution women are making to footy all round. But Underwood is doing the cause no good tonight.

    Umpires starting to listen to the crowd. 😞

    Petracca needs to completely revamp his set shot routine.

    Hope Trac gets his goal kicking radar back online before finals. His set shots have been poor this year.

    Hard game to call, feel sorry for the umpires.

    Poorest quarter for year,  no excuse for poor i50 connection, our fwds have oceans of space.

     

    Not the prettiest quarter but held them out. Would have liked a couple more on the board

    • PREVIEW: West Coast

      It was bad enough that the Melbourne Football Club created yet another humiliating scenario inside its wretched season at Marvel Stadium last Sunday, but the final insult is that it has been commanded to return to the scene of the crime to inflict further punishment on its fans this week. Incidentally, if this match preview, of a game that promises to be one of the most unattractive fixtures in the history of the game, happens to cut out of your computer screen three quarters of the way through, it’s no coincidence. I’ll be mirroring the Demons’ lacklustre effort against St Kilda from last Sunday when they conceded the largest last quarter turnaround for victory in the history of the game.

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.

    • CASEY: Sandringham

      The Casey Demons rebounded from a sluggish start to manufacture a decisive win against Sandringham in the final showdown, culminating a quarter century of intense rivalry between the fluctuating alignments of teams affiliated with AFL clubs Melbourne and St Kilda, as the Saints and the Zebras prepare to forge independent paths in 2026. After conceding three of the first four goals of the match, the Demons went on a goal kicking rampage instigated by the winning ruck combination of Tom Campbell with 26 hitouts, 26 disposals and 13 clearances and his apprentice Will Verrall who contributed 20 hitouts. This gave first use of the ball to the likes of Jack Billings, Bayley Laurie, Riley Bonner and Koltyn Tholstrup who was impressive early. By the first break they had added seven goals and took a strong grip on the game. The Demons were well served up forward early by Mitch Hardie and, as the game progressed, Harry Sharp proved a menace with a five goal performance. Emerging young forwards Matthew Jefferson and Luker Kentfield kicked two each but the former let himself down with some poor kicking for goal.
      Young draft talent Will Duursma showed the depth of his talent and looks well out of reach for Melbourne this year. Kalani White was used sparingly and had a brief but uneventful stint in the ruck.

      The Demons return to the scene of the crime on Saturday to face the wooden spooners the Eagles at the Docklands. Who comes in and who goes out? Like moving deck chairs on the Titanic.
