Feel a bit sorry for Hunt & Dunstan

Even though l don’t agree with the Melksham decision he’s still a Demon & we should get off his back & support him

 

Milkshake.....really?

Wasn't he super lucky to get to play his 200 and pick up his 5 possies as per usual.

Sounds tough but this is the critical end folks.

 

He's served us well bit doesn't see a patch of his former self.

If opposition fans were to read these boards they’d likely be confused. “Wow. This is how they talk about one of their own?!” It’s disgraceful.

Hope Tomlinson puts in a better performance than his last start when Sam Reid of all people taught him an absolute footy lesson.

Sam Reid is a very good footballer...has been cruelled by injury.

One of the best swing men in the game when he can get on the ground.

WCW, you may be related to my wife. She says all the time; "I don't understand boy humour"

All I can think of is Goody is trying to baffle the Port match committee with these selections just as much as us supporters

That being the case Im completely baffled🤯

Jump on bigfooty and check out every team boards team selection thread.

You'll be in for a huge rude culture shock.

This is nothing compared to others..

Both Max and Jacko played last week and it didn't help Brown though.

Yes, but just be nice to see what mainly Max forward, rather than mainly Jacko forward looks like 

I am not thrilled with these selections but I trust the coaches. They’ve done a good job the last two season.

Melks selection is a joke 

Does he have pics of the coach

Almost unbelievable

Makes me sick 

Bedford and Spargo can count themselves very lucky.

I hope Jake cashes in on the lifeline he has received.

Would be good if you’re taking the port coaching reins this week then fence 😛

Dunstan must be regretting his decision to join us, and Chandler must be regretting staying with us. Form counts for nothing. The one saving grace is that Weid isn't in the side.

Will Melk and May run through the banner together as a sign of solidarity?

Melksham & May warm up will be 3 rounds of boxing??

Rivers and Tommo I get.

Melk’s selection confounds me   He looked well past it in the last couple of games he played 

Has he been starring at Casey ?

 

Agree, Melksham has looked a mile off AFL standard this year! Would have picked Dunstable or Hunt well in front of him.

I’m talking about THIS forum. (I know I wouldn’t last five minutes on BigFooty and similar which is why I wouldn’t bother to even momentarily visit those sites.)
But I believe the standard of THIS forum is such that nastiness purely for the sake of nastiness doesn’t belong. Constructive criticism? Sure, bring it on. But straight-up insults, yeah nah. 
 


Melksham has shown good form at French restaurants so why not the Alice??!

Oh, I understand boy humour. I understand all humour. But this [censored] isn’t humour. For in order for it to be classed as humour, it needs to be funny. Or clever. These comments are neither. Ergo… not humour. 😁

He was great 2 years ago

Much much faster than now and hungry as ever. 

Seems to be totally different now

Love to be proved wrong and we see milk of old

 

 

 

Sparrow into the pure mid role and milkshake to HFF? 

Rivers is a good addition to our side imo

Bill there are 2 issues here . One is expressing an opinion and questioning a selection based on form. 
Supporting the player is another issue. He’s playing for Melbourne so I hope he proves me wrong and plays a blinder

  • 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?
