McDonald to Grundy at the top of the square was brilliant. If Brodie marks like that in the forward line we are going to have a good season 

 

It'll be a huge bonus if Grundy can mark and kick goals like this during the season.

Very good first quarter. Everyone looking reasonably sharp (other than Brown)

Wow. Brodie 2 goals. I'm liking the look of this.

Tell him as a Melbourne major sponsor our game should take priority. 

I think they know, but I seem to be the only supporter. 

They have opened upstairs, but no commentary,  and the commentary in downstairs areas cannot be heard.

Early days but Bucks has gone out and said McStay better than Grundy … 🤔 I think not.

Brown had a hair cut

Can McVee tighten up on their champion. Martin can turn games

Any breeze there? Doesn't look like it on the box

Slight breeze (8km/hr ) favouring our end in the first qtr.

Lol

Grundy kicks his third.

Martin beats McVee one on one and snaps Richmond's first of the day. Tricky match up for the rookie

39 - 9


BB disappointing

Got away with a big and obvious jumper hold.  Not sure how none of the 4 umps saw it.

 

Pity about that Prestia injury. I know no-one cares but still not nice to see.

Brown gives away a free kick and Balta takes advantage of the breeze to slam home a goal for the Tigers.

  • 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.
