Few senior players braving the conditions in the stands including Dogga. For a guy seemingly on the way out he does still seem very invested. 

He is an odd unit. Very active on the Instagram reposting Melbourne stuff too. 
Has he checked out? Or is he genuinely just vague?

    It is indeed

    Great goal Smith. I would seriously consider bringing him to play as a “tall” forward. He could cause some chaos, which is bad in the backline but could be good up forward.

    Smith is having a great game so far, he’s second efforts and forward pressure is something I wish for weids to have. 
    If he continues to have a great game then he needs to come in next week. We need something different up forward

    Brought in by Casey apparently when Daw retired, but had a calf injury I believe so this is his first game.

    Smith’s work rate has been fantastic, unlucky not to get a free kick then.

    Yes we do. JVR is showing nothing in this game. So yes, Smith.

    Tomlinson and Bowey are a class above this level.

    Harmes looks like a VFL player in the AFL, and a VFL player in the VFL

    Bring in Howes instead

    The Blues hit the front in the shadows of half time.

    If you ever want to a game that illustrates:

    a) the value of small forwards

    b) the reason not to pack a team with ordinary talls

    c) Why Harmes is in the 2’s

    then this is it

    Interesting first half.

    The conditions don't suit forwards today, but having watched the first half pretty closely the pick out of the forwards has been Joel Smith. His work rate has been impressive.

    Harmes and Dunstan can’t get any separation at the clearances. Laurie (stuck forward) and White should be given the hit outs.

    Umpires rob us a goal from sheer panic. Maybe evens up the Smith one from the first quarter

    • REPORT: Adelaide

      The atmosphere at the Melbourne Football Club at the beginning of the season was aspirational following an injury-plagued year in 2024. Coach Simon Goodwin had lofty expectations with the return of key players, the anticipated improvement from a maturing group with a few years of experience under their belts, and some exceptional young talent also joining the ranks. All of that went by the wayside as the team failed to click into action early on. It rallied briefly with a new strategy but has fallen again with five more  consecutive defeats.

    • CASEY: Coburg

      The Casey Demons returned to their home ground which was once a graveyard for opposing teams but they managed to gift the four points on offer to Coburg with yet another of their trademark displays of inaccuracy in front of goals and some undisciplined football that earned the displeasure of the umpires late in the game. The home team was welcomed by a small crowd at Casey Fields and looked right at home as it dominated the first three quarters and led for all bar the last five minutes of the game. In the end, they came away with nothing, despite winning everywhere but on the scoreboard and the free kick count.

    • PREGAME: Rd 18 vs North Melbourne

      After four weeks on the road the Demons make their long awaited return to the MCG next Sunday to play in a classic late season dead rubber against the North Melbourne Kangaroos. Who comes in and who comes out?

    • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

      The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.
