Turning into a decent game now. Both teams still lacking polish to make the most of possession chains.

Jobe's special commentary is not all that special. 

Yeah he doesn’t really offer any insights? He just points out the obvious that everyone can see is happening.

Daisy is legitimately the best special comments person IMO. She teaches me things about the game. 


i love watching the blues play well before choking 

 

Cats are [censored]. even if they win this

they are done 


That was OOB on the full 😱

Hawkins conned the ump somehow he was having a shot.  Poor umpiring really.

Bro to think we picked up Weid ahead of McKay AND Curnow…

Lol imagine one of those blokes in our F50


Just occurred to me there won't be a Queens bday game. Will it be Kings? How odd.

How hard is it watching games where you hope both teams lose. 

Yeah Jeelong starting to show age Very very slow. HATE both but would prefer a draw

Stewart’s ability to win 1v1, absorbing repeat entries and intercepting capabilities being missing in this game really hurt the cats defence. They don’t have a replacement and it’s showing.

Ah well, he's a good boy at least!

 

This has been dreadful footy. Like Melbourne 2012 and 13.

I could handle a draw.

  • PREVIEW: Hawthorn

    Melbourne and Hawthorn who face off against each other this week have more in common than having once almost merged and about to wear a blue jumper with a red v triangle and an embroidered picture of a bird on the front. They also share the MCG as their main home ground, their supporters are associated with the leafy suburbs of Melbourne and in recent times, James Frawley graced the colours of both teams. Even more recently, both have bounced back from disastrous five game losing streaks to start off a season. Of course, the Hawks turned their bounce into a successful leap from the bottom of the ladder into a finals appearance, making it to the semifinals in 2024 and this year, they’re riding high in third place on the AFL table. The Demons are just three games into their 2025 bounce back, and are yet to climb their way out of the bottom four although they are sitting a game and percentage out of the top eight. However, with the current sportsbet odds of $3.90 to win this week’s encounter, it seems a forlorn hope that their upward progression will continue much longer.

  • REPORT: West Coast

    On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

    The Demons return to the MCG to take on the High Flying Hawks on Saturday Afternoon. Hawthorn will be aiming to consolidate a position in the Top 4 whilst the Dees will be looking to take a scalp and make it four wins in a row. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • POSTGAME: West Coast

    Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.
