    Well hopefully after the delay we can actually control the football for a bit.

    Ok, so this I don’t quite understand.

    not showing incident. Happy to when it’s a potential suspension

    I know right,  it wasn't that bad

    When are our boys going to glance inside 50 first and at least try and kick to our forward's advantage on occasions?

    Instead we rush many of then load up the high looping tumble punts.

    Guthrie on Picket is a big win for the Cats atm.

    No one front and square at any marking contests so far.

    Our small and mediums just don't get to where they need to be often enough to impact and assist.

    I think Kozzy may have been at the drop of one spillage but over ran the ball.

    Kozzy & Chandler need a rocket message off the bench and need it now.  Get to the front of the contests.  And certainly no flying for pack marks!!

    Shouldve been a major focus in the build up but so far doesn't appear as if any message, if there was one, has sunk in.

    Agree with what you have said but Koz was in the perfect spot at one point front and center inside our 50m but none of our talls went up for the mark so Koz was just watching a cats player take an uncontested mark. He can’t win, in hindsight he needed to contest but we also don’t want him flying for everything

    Your being kind it was more like 15m. Would have been a nice settler for us 

    Haha sorry I was exaggerating for comedic value saying he was a ruler length away from goal, but it failed lol. Yeah was about 15m, too close to miss those 

     

    He was out before he hit the ground

    In all seriousness if that was an opposition player it’d be 4 weeks. I don’t say that to be funny. I say it because it shows you what a raffle it is.

    The width of this ground is shockingly narrow.

    Lots of oof by opposition

    We are winning absolutely everything and then turning it over by kicking it down their throats at half forward.

    6 weeks for Rohan there

    we should win this easily now. 

    slowly grind them down MFC

    Maybe with Cameron off we can put Petty forward and get a mark inside 50?

    • REPORT: 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.

    • 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.
