    So far we have seen Gawn and Grundy sharing ruck duties.

    Oliver, Viney, Pickett, Harmes, Sparrow and Petracca have all rotated at centre bounce.

    Petracca is impressive.

    Hunter is a great addition. Owning that wing spot that we have struggled to fill for years now.

    Dominating play but hitting up leading forwards is still very poor.

    Can’t see anything at ground level. Can’t wait for nosebleed seats at the G with a balmy 2 degree southerly in my face. 
     

    Look to have a few turnovers this quarter and no signs of the quick play on through the corridor that we were hoping for.

    I have have seen enough to ink Hunter for round 1 and pencil McVee for round 1 as well. Whilst they have both had their moments I really dont like a forwardline with both TMac and Brown and we do still scream for a crumber at the spill when Koz not there. Our clear want to move forward with short quick kicks and also our spinning of more players through the midfield are positives. Granted neither Harmes or Sparrow have really made the most of the time.

    I didn’t get the email from Kayo to activate the voucher. I assume you didn’t either. I had to ring the membership and they fwd to me.

    I’m going to give benefit of the doubt and put it down to the unpredictable conditions. Our ball movement has been pretty good. 

    We’re dominating play and are not getting a fair run from the umps. 

    They’ve missed some howlers and given them some really soft ones that haven’t been reciprocated at the other end.

    View from the top of the stand is excellent if you can find room

    Just getting the early rust out of the system.

    If we can still clean up our forward 50 entries then we'll be fine this year.

    Not sure about Spargo’s headband. Looks like Phil Lesh from The Grateful Dead.

    Kayo extended highlights during the breaks are bloody annoying. Put a commercial on FFS.

    Was just thinking that

    I’m really looking forward to seeing JVR. Surely old knee Brown and old foot McDonald are done. 

    Compression bandage on J Adams knee. Walking around just fine on the ground. 
     

    More Casey guys so 18 warming up for the next game so far. Haven’t seen Verrell or Schache.

    Have to think JVR and Jj get a run soon in the main stuff

    • 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?

    • POSTGAME: Geelong

      The Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, falling to 0–4 after a more spirited showing against the Cats at Kardinia Park. Despite the improved effort, they went down by 39 points, and the road ahead is looking increasingly grim.
