That final minute really was unhinged 🤣  Now they finally steered him back to footy

Please someone post it!

Brayshaw must have snorted a line, had 5 energy drinks, drank 3 cups of coffee and had a Boost drink. He is chirping along like a chipmunk.

May all your dreams come true.

If anyone wants to clip this magic moment and let us all lip-read her epic 'thank you', it is just after 3:38:00 on the Kayo broadcast.

Seriously, I nominate it for video of the week.  absolute   magnificent

Will try and find footage but hopefully it'll be on Kayo for when you and Mr Jaded get home!  Glad your boy's streak of only 2 losses has not been enlargened!


As far as backline goes, we look way more steady with the 3 talls down back with Petty freeing up one of May/Lever to intercept.

Mate I have ADHD and even I'm struggling to keep up 😂

Happy new recruit to the club 🤗

Positives - Viney immense, Oliver influential, Van Rooyen silencing the doubters, Chandler on the rise, Lever making key intercepts, Gawn/Grundy combination grinding the Tigers down, great team effort in the last quarter, huge crowd.

Negatives - vulnerable against speedy counter-attacks, a bit lucky the under-strength Tigers missed a few very gettable shots at goal, Steven May again below his best.

Verdict - a gritty win, and in the end that's all that counts.

Agree, Petty has to go back. Hopefully JVR can build confidence after that last Q and be our prime target up forward

Goody in the post match -

"We were thinking of subbing Rooey off."

What convinced you not to sub him off?

"He took one mark"

Love it. 🤣

Good win,  sometimes you need to grind it out.  I usually hate umpire bashing because I try take my Red and Blue glasses off but it is hard.  But after scrolling through twitter I wasn't alone in thinking it was horrible and sided with Rich.

Still some stuff to work out, Petty up fwd is done, only an in game move now.

Our back flankers and pockets need to sort out who is going for the tackle or smother, they and May are all sitting back to get the easy kick.

Gawn/Grundy can get back to it

And Ben Brown is needed to start in that side, can be subbed if not affecting the game, but with Gawn and Grundy he is a threat. More than Melksham anyways


25 points down would have to be the biggest lead we’ve pegged back since the Geelong round 23 2021 game?

Did anyone else think the umpiring was questionable, or was that just me?

When even my kid sister recognises the umpiring is [censored]... yes, it's questionable 

 

I know we won and it was more gritty than pretty football but what the eff, how shocking were the umpires !! 
They were a disgrace.  My mate who barracks for Richmond did not disagree. Using his words ‘we had a few dubious ones go our way’.

Anyhow, got the four points, one week at a time etc, etc.

Thats a relief. We gave up many similar leads last season.

  • REPORT: Geelong

    I was disappointed to hear Goody say at his post match presser after the team’s 39 point defeat against Geelong that "we're getting high quality entry, just poor execution" because Melbourne’s problems extend far beyond that after its 0 - 4 start to the 2025 football season. There are clearly problems with poor execution, some of which were evident well before the current season and were in play when the Demons met the Cats in early May last year and beat them in a near top-of-the-table clash that saw both sides sitting comfortably in the top four after round eight. Since that game, the Demons’ performances have been positively Third World with only five wins in 19 games with a no longer majestic midfield and a dysfunctional forward line that has become too easy for opposing coaches to counter. This is an area of their game that is currently being played out as if they were all completely panic-stricken.

  • PREGAME: Essendon

    Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

  • NON-MFC: Round 04

    Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

  • POSTGAME: Geelong

    The Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, falling to 0–4 after a more spirited showing against the Cats at Kardinia Park. Despite the improved effort, they went down by 39 points, and the road ahead is looking increasingly grim.
