This team is in sync today 


LOVED the psychically and relentlessness of our play that quarter. Best full quarter in a long time. If guys like Trac have better quarters watch out. It’s been a long time since we bullied the Swans. Love you see it.

 

 MORE PLEASE!!

    Now can we get a few centre clearances this quarter? Grundy seems to be misjudging the bounce badly

    Spargo is such a good decision maker.

    Elite. Probably our best or at least top 3.

    Great start. If we could start evening out the center clearances and Petracca can find his kicking boots we’ll be in for a good ride. 


    That's the way Dees now keep working hard.

    CHAAAARLLIIEEEEE Spargo now equal leader of the competition for goal assists.

    I continue to believe he is on the cusp of becoming something special.

    Yep that centre clearance trend won't continue. A great response from us.

    Now, the trick is to KEEP THIS UP! 

    We’ve seen teams erode our leads, and the swans have done it recently, a lot. They’re a team capable of fast scoring.

    We need to come out firing and blast these swans away.

    Petty to play forward.

    Hip hip HOORAY!!!!  Finally.  Doing ok as well.  Lets hope he gets a block of at least 3 matches to settle in.  This is a much more dynamic mobile line up.

    Give the Swans something to think about albeit its also a solid backline

    One quarter. Keep it going, don't back off

    • PREVIEW: West Coast

      It was bad enough that the Melbourne Football Club created yet another humiliating scenario inside its wretched season at Marvel Stadium last Sunday, but the final insult is that it has been commanded to return to the scene of the crime to inflict further punishment on its fans this week. Incidentally, if this match preview, of a game that promises to be one of the most unattractive fixtures in the history of the game, happens to cut out of your computer screen three quarters of the way through, it’s no coincidence. I’ll be mirroring the Demons’ lacklustre effort against St Kilda from last Sunday when they conceded the largest last quarter turnaround for victory in the history of the game.

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.

    • CASEY: Sandringham

      The Casey Demons rebounded from a sluggish start to manufacture a decisive win against Sandringham in the final showdown, culminating a quarter century of intense rivalry between the fluctuating alignments of teams affiliated with AFL clubs Melbourne and St Kilda, as the Saints and the Zebras prepare to forge independent paths in 2026. After conceding three of the first four goals of the match, the Demons went on a goal kicking rampage instigated by the winning ruck combination of Tom Campbell with 26 hitouts, 26 disposals and 13 clearances and his apprentice Will Verrall who contributed 20 hitouts. This gave first use of the ball to the likes of Jack Billings, Bayley Laurie, Riley Bonner and Koltyn Tholstrup who was impressive early. By the first break they had added seven goals and took a strong grip on the game. The Demons were well served up forward early by Mitch Hardie and, as the game progressed, Harry Sharp proved a menace with a five goal performance. Emerging young forwards Matthew Jefferson and Luker Kentfield kicked two each but the former let himself down with some poor kicking for goal.
      Young draft talent Will Duursma showed the depth of his talent and looks well out of reach for Melbourne this year. Kalani White was used sparingly and had a brief but uneventful stint in the ruck.

      The Demons return to the scene of the crime on Saturday to face the wooden spooners the Eagles at the Docklands. Who comes in and who goes out? Like moving deck chairs on the Titanic.
