Shades of last week(s) here.

We need to convert one now and go into the break with a tidy lead.

It's nothing like the past couple. Pressure is back.

It's identical. Start strong then teams we play against are suddenly are aerial perfectionists

    Play on, you’re wearing red and royal blue 

    It's ok Gunna, we have good medical staff on stand-by.

    He can be rebuilt. We have the technology. Bigger, stronger, faster. @2022 bionics

    Royal Blue? 

    I thought this was our designated home game.

    Finish the quarter boys. We are still not ourselves. Guarding space. Second to the ball. It’s hard watching us struggle when they up their pressure. Still looks like some have heavy legs. Petracca. He couldn’t be tackled six weeks ago. Now it’s easy. Despite looking ordinary we are up and in the game. 

    Is it only me or we seem to always been too slow when chasing opposition? We ought to run harder towards our back pocket, I am talking about our mids

    Ugh, we're getting carved up by the Pies' quick movement through our defence. Lever realllllyyyy needs May out there. We have really lost our mojo and teams have worked us out. Not a good combination.

    We need to come out breathing fire and being much smarter with our disposals, plus taking our chances, because if the pies start taking theirs, we're in trouble.


    Time to put this Ginnivin kid on his [censored]. Little [censored] mouthing off to Gawn. Who the hell do you think you are? Have you won a flag or been an AA 5 times? No. So shut the [censored] up!

    Dominate first 20 minutes of quarter don't convert, momentum swings rinse repeat.

    58% to 35% efficiency inside 50.

    We simply do not win from here if the second half continues as it's been. Every time they go forward they look like scoring. That's really concerning. 

    Our boys looked absolutely gassed when the siren went then. Every single one of them hands on knees bent over.

    • CASEY: Geelong

      There was a time in the second quarter of the game at the Cattery on Friday afternoon when the Casey Demons threatened to take the game apart against the Cats. The Demons had been well on top early but were struggling to convert their ascendancy over the ground until Tom Fullarton’s burst of three goals in the space of eight minutes on the way to a five goal haul and his best game for the club since arriving from Brisbane at the end of 2023. He was leading, marking and otherwise giving his opponents a merry dance as Casey grabbed a three goal lead in the blink of an eye. Fullarton has now kicked ten goals in Casey’s three matches and, with Melbourne’s forward conversion woes, he is definitely in with a chance to get his first game with the club in next week’s Gather Round in Adelaide. Despite the tall forward’s efforts - he finished with 19 disposals and eight marks and had four hit outs as back up to Will Verrall in the second half - it wasn’t enough as Geelong reigned in the lead through persistent attacks and eventually clawed their way to the lead early in the last and held it till they achieved the end aim of victory.

    • REPORT: Geelong

      I was disappointed to hear Goody say at his post match presser after the team’s 39 point defeat against Geelong that "we're getting high quality entry, just poor execution" because Melbourne’s problems extend far beyond that after its 0 - 4 start to the 2025 football season. There are clearly problems with poor execution, some of which were evident well before the current season and were in play when the Demons met the Cats in early May last year and beat them in a near top-of-the-table clash that saw both sides sitting comfortably in the top four after round eight. Since that game, the Demons’ performances have been positively Third World with only five wins in 19 games with a no longer majestic midfield and a dysfunctional forward line that has become too easy for opposing coaches to counter. This is an area of their game that is currently being played out as if they were all completely panic-stricken.

    • PREGAME: Essendon

      Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

    • NON-MFC: Round 04

      Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?
