it is great to see us getting reward for our forward 50 attacks. Great goal kicking. Keep it going Dees.

 

Well this 4th Maker's mark is going down well.  The two mountain goat starters didn't even touch the sides.  A bit like our kicks for goal... straight down the middle.

We're ahead yeh?

Game by far over. We need to bury this mob. 

Haven’t seen this footy since the second half of the Grand Final.

Zorko must have gut punched ANB to make him spew like that.

Watch Christensen fine ANB for staging.

Not a single like. Very disappointing 

 

I'll give it one now.


bang! bang! bang! bang! bang! bang! , bang! bang! bang! bang! bang! bang! , bang!

Given that percentage IS important (we get to see the Dees at the MCG!) let's f*&ng [censored] them. No mercy. Go the kill.

The key now is not winning margin but keeping Brisbanes score low. Ie if both teams kick 10 goals in the second half we lose a lot of percentage.

Yep. We have to keep Brisvegas dry…

26 inside 50 to each team.

We are just brutally efficient tonight. Won’t happen every week but you take it when you can. 
 

We need to put this game to bed this quarter. The Lions will come out firing so we just need to hold strong for 5-10 and not give them any momentum.


Brisbane brought a knife to a gun fight, and I’m talking the blade on a a pair of fingernail clippers to a 155mm Howitzer.

TV already making excuses for the Lions tackle on brown. disappointing to see.

If it knocked only sense into him and no delayed concussion issues, I’m not overly fussed

He has been for years!

That was almost a faultless first half. Every kind of entry whether long kick or lowering the eyes we executed perfectly every time. Winning contested ball like absolute animals and 16 shots from 26 inside 50s is incredible. 

Brisbane getting hot under the collar, I don't know whether it was to find a spark but it is working against them big time. Matthison is such a bin Dipper of a footballer.

Winning almost every 50-50 right now. I'll be happy if we build the lead in the 3rd then rest guys and take the sting out in the last. 

Come on Dees, let's Bin Diesel these bottlers!

What a sight to see us so effective inside 50. The eyes are wide, we're looking for targets, it's manic, we're relentless, we're CONVERTING!

This is exactly the sort of motivation we need going into the finals. Shots fired, watch out everyone else. 

Lions = pretenders.

Now let's bury em.

Yeah, " momentum of the tackle yadda, yadda , yadda."
Didn't matter when Chandler got 2.

I thought up until Max took took those two late contested marks, that he and perhaps ANB and Spargo were the only ones just going.

The rest have been scintillating. Jackson  May, Kozzie, BBB, Rivers, Langdon, Harmes, Tracc, Gus...

I don't hate on players instantly like so many on here 😛


We made need more condiments on table for second half, the boys are in feast mode ❤️💙

Brissy will have to take it on.

Can we defend a team coming hard at us and score on the counter-attack. 

I notice the rubbish default kick to the FP has been turned on its head.

The default is now lowering vision for the hit up pass...or kicking to the hot zone just outside the square.  The surprise marginal option is now kicking out to the flank or pocket then cutting straight back in on the angle.

And look at that...we've scored our rough average score for the season in the first half!

Good to see Harmes playing....a lot of extra muscle with him...Trac...Sparrow and Viney.

May standing tall.

Gus 17 touches. Oliver 14.

I think Rivers has been good 

My $ on kozzie for 7 Sausages.

 

Bbb 5 marks...3 goals.

17 at 35% and many of those awful no look flick or kick out of a pack which almost never works to our advantage…

Absolutely love the bloke.  HATE his flick out possessions.

  • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

    The media has performed a complete reversal in its coverage of the Melbourne Football Club over the past month and a half. Having endured intense criticism from all quarters in the press, which continually identified new avenues for scrutiny of every aspect, both on and off the field, and prematurely speculated about the departures of coaches, players, officials, and various employees from a club that lost its first five matches and appeared out of finals contention, the narrative has suddenly shifted to one of unbridled optimism.  The Demons have won five of their last six matches, positioning themselves just one game (and a considerable amount of percentage) outside the top eight at the halfway mark of the season. They still trail the primary contenders and remain far from assured of a finals berth.

  • REPORT: Sydney

    A few weeks ago, I visited a fellow Melbourne Football Club supporter in hospital, and our conversation inevitably shifted from his health diagnosis to the well-being of our football team. Like him, Melbourne had faced challenges in recent months, but an intervention - in his case, surgery, and in the team's case, a change in game style - had brought about much improvement.  The team's professionals had altered its game style from a pedestrian and slow-moving approach, which yielded an average of merely 60 points for five winless games, to a faster and more direct style. This shift led to three consecutive wins and a strong competitive effort in the fourth game, albeit with a tired finish against Hawthorn, a strong premiership contender.  As we discussed our team's recent health improvement, I shared my observations on the changes within the team, including the refreshed style, the introduction of new young talent, such as rising stars Caleb Windsor, Harvey Langford, and Xavier Lindsay, and the rebranding of Kozzy Pickett from a small forward to a midfield machine who can still get among the goals. I also highlighted the dominance of captain Max Gawn in the ruck and the resurgence in form in a big way of midfield superstars Christian Petracca and Clayton Oliver.

  • POSTGAME: Sydney

    The Demons controlled the contest from the outset, though inaccurate kicking kept the Swans in the game until half time. But after the break, Melbourne put on the jets and blew Sydney away and the demolition job was complete.

  • CASEY: Northern Bullants

    The Casey Demons travelled to a windy Cramer Street, Preston yesterday and blew the Northern Bullants off the ground for three quarters before shutting up shop in the final term, coasting to a much-needed 71-point victory after leading by almost 15 goals at one stage. It was a pleasing performance that revived the Demons’ prospects for the 2025 season but, at the same time, very little can be taken from the game because of the weak opposition. These days, the Bullants are little more than road kill. The once proud club, situated behind the Preston Market in a now culturally diverse area, is currently facing significant financial and on-field challenges, having failed to secure a win to date in 2025.
