Looks like if it’s any ducking at al that results over the shoulders contact it’s not a free. 

Understand the need to prevent ducking, but sad to see it applied where it's legitimately just a player picking up a ground ball

Nervous defensively. Petty a little off. Doggies sharper around the ball. it’ll be a close game I reckon

Until it’s a Doggies player then there is a special clause in the rules of the game.

We look more dynamic on the fast break but they are very good in close with those quick hands…be a close contest all night I reckon

Feels as if we gifted the dogs their goals. It doesn't look like they are doing much to keep it close.

If Harmes is tagging Bont it ain't working.

Grundy's hit outs are not really to advantage.

Max bog.

Kozzy dangerous.

Lever good.

Clarry, Langdon quiet.

Nice goal by Tommy Sparrow.

Pickett should have passed to Spargo in perfect position, but selfishly shot for goal and missed.    Also Riv could have kicked out to Spargs all alone, but kicked to a contest instead.

Rivers seems to be lacking confidence in his short kicking, he'd rather kick a bomb every single time.

I think it’s going to be one of those rule adjustments with frustratingly unintended consequences…

Tell me again how May isn’t the glue that holds us together down back. 
Also please put someone better on Bont.

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo. The play start time was brought forward from the initial 11am bounce, due to the high temperatures forecast.  The match sim will consist of four 25-minute qu
