    Each game brings its unique challenges which are different from the assumptions made prior. This is a good test. And yet we are double their score.

    Fair dinkum, the biased umpiring in the West Coast games should come under investigation. Of course nothing will happen with the protected species they are. Makes watching so hard. 

    The Ump #6 is atrocious.  Dumbfounded by his calls thus far.

    In a game like this you look for positives........

    Fritsch ... maybe

    I'm positive we could use the ball betrer and umps could start to ping eagles players for incorrect disposal.

    Fritta on fire. Oliver his usual self. We are using are wings again well. Anb working hard.

    We are doing ok. It’s hot, the Eagles have a plan, and 4 supporters on the field pretending to be umpires.

    I feel like some of our players are doing well. Jack Viney is growing with every game, Nibblers tackling has been great, and Fritta knows where the goals are.

    Koz needs more work on his goal kicking. It’s a raffle. He’s much better in traffic.

    I’m not at the game, 640MD. I’m watching it on the big screen at a pub in Richmond, celebrating another crazy Dee’s birthday.

    And a 6 day break and yet, Saints and Bombers yet to leave Victoria.

    LOL how quickly it goes from 100 point thumping percentage booster to I just want a win.

    Good sides bury this mob with 7 out, it's all about percentage for this game.

    If we ratchet up our own pressure and really crack in and win contested footy, we’ll do much better from stoppage and that should hopefully clear up transition from d50.

    Trac has 2 contested possesions, no tackles and 1 clearance so far. Needs to lift.

    He will.

    The Eagles are cracking in and taking it on. Nothing wrong with our effort but our focus and attention to details is lacking. Would prefer us to simplify and stop the Hollywood handballs. 

    Yeah credit to WC for putting in the effort but we have not come to play. We are taking it too easy. Playing loose and not enough effort with ball use.

    I always worry about games we should win easily that we get to complacent and dont come out to play. today seems to be a bit like that, we lose to bottom sides too frequently. We need them to focus on beating this mob, playing our brand of good football not their wresting match which leaves many decisions in the umpires hands, either to ignore frees that are there or pay them. so far we seem to have gotten the short end of the stick. Given the heavy eagle crowd i dont see that changing in the second half. We need percentage and show that we can beat sides well.

    We're a good side but that's just not the Melbourne way.

    WC will hit a wall at 20-minute mark. Will still be a 10-goal win.

    • GAMEDAY: Port Adelaide

    • PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      With both sides precariously positioned ahead of the run home to the finals, only one team involved in Sunday’s clash at the Adelaide Oval between the Power and the Demons will remain a contender when it’s over.  On current form, that one team has to be Melbourne which narrowly missed out on defeating the competition’s power house Collingwood on King's Birthday and also recently overpowered both 2024 Grand Finalists. Conversely, Port Adelaide snapped out of a four-game losing streak with a win against the Giants in Canberra. Although they will be rejuvenated following that victory, their performances during that run of losses were sub par and resulted in some embarrassing blow out defeats.

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

    • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

      The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?
