Melbourne 4. 9. 33

Fockers 10. 5. 65

Well, we started the game really well with Davey slotting one through from 50 in the first 20 seconds of the match... But every goal we kicked was answered quickly by the travelling Fockers.... Byron kicked our second and Dunny our 3rd....

But this only sparked the Fockers into action.... They continued to kick the next 8 goals of the match and it was only a late goal (and an absolute ripper) from Yze that stopped the run....

We have injury problems again! Whelan first went down with what looks like an ankle injury, but also talk of a hamstring strain on top of that... Daniel Bell copped a huge knee to the back of the head not long after this and was out like a light! He has since got his bearings back, but concussion and a massive headache will see him most likely take no further part.... On top of this we have lost Nathan Jones with what was described as "an ankle the size of a grapefruit" :(

We are trying hard to stay in the game, but they have too many quality players and with only 1 bloke on the bench we could be staring down the barrel of a massive loss....

Adem Yze has had a ripper half of footy... 17 posessions, 6 marks and sweet goal...

Davey good with 13 posessions and slowly getting back to some sort of form...

Miller presenting nicely and James McDonald doing what he does best....

But the likes of Pavlich, Tarrant, Headland, Haselby, McManus and Sandilands will mean that this game will only get harder to control....

We have not given up and have tried our guts out.... But with no cattle on the pine it will always be tough...

  • The Clayton Oliver Thread

    Melbourne have held talks with Clayton Oliver and they’ve laid out where he fits in under Steve King’s vision and been frank about expectations. Oliver is still under contract for five years, but the door is open if he wants to explore his options elsewhere.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Essendon

    It’s Pink Lady night at Princes Park — a vibey Friday evening setting for a high-stakes clash between second-placed Melbourne and eleventh-placed Essendon. The wind-sheltered IKON Park, a favourite ground of the Demon players, promises flair, fire and a touch of pink. Melbourne has never lost a home-and-away game here, though the ghosts of two straight-sets finals exits in 2023 still linger.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: # 1 Steven May 

    The premiership defender has shown signs of wear and tear due to age, and his 2025 season was inconsistent, ending poorly with a suspension and a noticeable decline in performance. The Demons are eager to integrate younger players onto their list and have indicated that they may not be able to guarantee him senior games next season, in what would be the final year of his contract.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: # 2 Jacob van Rooyen

    The young key tall failed to make progress during the season, with a decline in his goal kicking output. His secondary role as a backup ruckman, which may have hindered his ability to further develop his game, and he was also impacted by the team's poor forward connection. It will be interesting to observe his performance under a new coaching regime.
