Great team effort and great to see the team defence back in motion.

 

 

Most pleasing was how we chased and harassed till the end, despite the score.

looked more like 2021, keep the hunger. 

Just tidied up a bit of business!!

 

Melbourne now has the best win/loss ratio of any team at Optus Oval.

 

Ha ha brilliant

That’s our DNA.


We basically don’t lose when May/Lever/Petty are all in and doing their bit. Petty is becoming an incredible player. 

Was at the game. Our system was absolutely perfect. I was looking for more pressure ‘effort’ but honestly it wasn’t even needed. Every player on the ground worked in unison in plugging the gaps, peeling off and getting into space. 
 

We completely shut them down and they couldn’t get into the game at all. Very glad I came over!

 

That's what I'm talking about !!!!

Binman Genius.


Jack Viney - he’s the man that sets the standard - outstanding 

Great team effort well done Dees 

No Luke Jackson singing the song after the game - wtf is that about 

It got messy after the rain and the ground went to crap. Would have been a 12 goal win if it stayed dry.  Hopefully Jackson is ok.  Not in the song for some reason.  Onwards to September we go.

What is this about get paid the free kick when grabbing around the legs, bearing in mind that the direction from maggots is if the tackle slips below the legs it's a free against the tackler

Said earlier today we are going into Flag Mode

Went off with the doctor

Defence is hitting form

Rivers best game for a while, Hibbo going beast mode & Salem regaining some touch

Thank [censored] Brayshaw played well & we won or else Goody would never throw him in the middle again


Probably as good a defensive performance as I've seen from this club over the last two years. Rivers and Hibberd have both slotted back into our defence seamlessly. 

Petty is a deadset gun!

Thought I couldn’t see Dogga, did go off injured, maybe still getting treatment?

Loved watching that. We were much cleaner in disposal and steadier than we have been for most of the year (except for a LOT of slipping over or running over the ball). A few passengers but even they had moments of being effective.

Best thing - this was a very Melbourne game. Stifle the opposition and kick classy goals. 

Viney the beast again, great to see Brayshaw in the middle, Fritsch is a freak, and our backline back to its best.

Potentially a concussion test?

  • 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.

    It's Game Day and there are only 5 games to go. Can the Demons find some consistency and form as they stagger towards the finish line of another uninspiring season?
