Well it ain't working with

Tmac

JVR

Petty.

BBB.

So what have you got?

 

 

Petty and JVR have played about 2.5 games together up forward including tonight, and on the basis of forward half ball movement tonight I'd hardly judge them.

    A couple of times we were almost out the front of the stoppage, only to have a little fumble letting Richmond turn it over and go through other way. Clean this up and we'll score quickly. Also as Richmond appeared to tire a little bit we started to actually get some intercepts and structure. Umps can get stuffed

    Fmd, calm down, we're 2 goals down and have been playing 2 teams out there, positive energy and thoughts y'all 

    Will try, we need to be a lot better and harder.

    Viney has stepped up and we've started clunking marks around the ground. Big 3rd q coming up.

    Same as last week. So predictable. Should Kick the ball on angles and low into the forward line like every other team does against us!

     

    The good game day  coaches must love Goodwin

    How about we move 5 players sling the 60 arc and leave the rest of the space for Fritch from FF

    Hi all from up here in Qld. Can someone tell me if JVR is playing in this game as I have not seen him.

    A bin average half of football from us. Second to most balls, not working the extra 5% to help each other out. 50+ opposition points in the board by half time again, yay.

    I don't care if they umpiring has been bad, there was no point in that 2nd quarter where I thought we'd get a run on. Every little ricochet, soccer kick, flick on favoured Richmond and they sliced us through the middle. We suck right now and are not playing the correct football to win.

    Something is not working in the middle, get Gus in there, change it up a bit. We need to win some god damn ball out of the middle, get more inside 50s.

    The one redeeming factor is there is 14 points in it. But if we don't come out absolutely striking fear into their hearts then it will be a long night. Find your Demon spirit and apply it. 

    It's going to be hard work, Richmond have a head of steam up now and are running much harder than us, impossible your physicality and unlock the Demon within. One more time, FORGET about the umpiring and win the ball. 

    Yep, swing Brayshaw into the middle and leave Trac down forward.

    JVR is being out-muscled but I would just get him to move more. Apart from BBB he is our best forward option and one I like. TMac is probably done, and I am no believer In Schache.

    We miss Salem so much. Bowey, Rivers and McVee poor tonight and making horrid decisions.

    Would put Big M to CHF.... grundy in the ruck.

    Sub Bill on for JVR

    Yes. What's the point of having the two big rucks? We need a target.

    Checked the rule book as I couldn’t understand the free against Lever. 
     

    still not sure I understand…

    Balta took his eyes off the ball to body Gawn. Lucky he marked it cause that wouldn’t be called in our f50

    • 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.

    • GAMEDAY: West Coast

      It's Game Day and the Demons have a chance to notch up their third consecutive win — something they haven’t done since Round 5, 2024. But to do it, they’ll need to exorcise the Demons of last year’s disastrous trip out West. Can the Dees continue their momentum, right the wrongs of that fateful clash, and take another step up the ladder on the road to redemption?

    • FEATURE: 1925

      A hundred years ago today, on 2 May 1925, Melbourne kicked off the new season with a 47 point victory over St Kilda to take top place on the VFL ladder after the opening round of the new season.  Top place was a relatively unknown position for the team then known as the “Fuchsias.” They had finished last in 1923 and rose by only one place in the following year although the final home and away round heralded a promise of things to come when they surprised the eventual premiers Essendon. That victory set the stage for more improvement and it came rapidly. In this series, I will tell the story of how the 1925 season unfolded for the Melbourne Football Club and how it made the VFL finals for the first time in a decade on the way to the ultimate triumph a year later.
