Not with you on this call at all. Been up and down this year and thought today was one of his worst.

Totally disagree. It was hard to fault our backline as a unit. I think he was on Ryan a lot of the time and beat him comfortably. I just wish he wouldn’t do those dump kicks into dangerous spots.

Hunt’s had far more ups and downs IMO.

Played 2 down games to open the season, but has been excellent in every other game including shutting down Bolton and Higgins.

However I agree he was ordinary today.

1 tackle. 12 disposals - 3 clangers, 5 turnovers.

Thought he was poor today.

Yeah probably fair to say more good than bad, his defending has improved a lot this year for sure. His disposal has just stood out a lot more without Salem around maybe.

Chandler - unduly rough play. 
 

Probably gets a fine but depends on Foley.  Assume he’ll miss with concussion next week.  Chandler was unlucky but had to try to turn Foley not jump and ride him into the ground with both arms pinned

Was going to do that M,  but I thought not being able to count was the lesser of two evils.


Bowey -  love this kid

             - tough as nails

             - just never panics

             - team's best disposer

             - hardly ever beaten

             - brilliant draft selection

  • POSTGAME: West Coast

    Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.

  • GAMEDAY: West Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons have a chance to notch up their third consecutive win — something they haven’t done since Round 5, 2024. But to do it, they’ll need to exorcise the Demons of last year’s disastrous trip out West. Can the Dees continue their momentum, right the wrongs of that fateful clash, and take another step up the ladder on the road to redemption?

  • FEATURE: 1925

    A hundred years ago today, on 2 May 1925, Melbourne kicked off the new season with a 47 point victory over St Kilda to take top place on the VFL ladder after the opening round of the new season.  Top place was a relatively unknown position for the team then known as the “Fuchsias.” They had finished last in 1923 and rose by only one place in the following year although the final home and away round heralded a promise of things to come when they surprised the eventual premiers Essendon. That victory set the stage for more improvement and it came rapidly. In this series, I will tell the story of how the 1925 season unfolded for the Melbourne Football Club and how it made the VFL finals for the first time in a decade on the way to the ultimate triumph a year later.
