Ball kicked to Petty and he can't be bothered even competing

Soft if you need it lace-out

to lose to the puddy tatts with their best forward, their best two midfielders missing is very, very poor

Absolutely.

Letā€™s not totally blame ANB for the loss, we can also blame Fritsch for that idiotic dangerous tackle.

*Perfect tackle

Now we need bang, bang, bang, bang

There should be a lot of nervous blokes heading into the review. At least 6 who are horribly scared of body contactĀ 

Iā€™d love to see one game this year where we hit up targets instead of bombing it on heads.

Fritta and Kossie are not taking marks against this backline in the dry, no chance in the wet

Any chance of Gawn doing anything positive this year? There's more to being a leader than doing media appearances. Viney is putting him to shame at the moment.Ā 

Viney is putting a lot of guys to shame these last few weeks.

Amazing how we canā€™t keep an open forward line.Ā 

Oh who's the coach, that's right a ruckman and a coach who's allowed a dysfunctional forward line the last 2 years.


I want a national trust formed to ban us from playing on this ground for 5 yearsĀ

Our forward 50 work is absolutely freaking horrible.Ā 

This. We have to work far too hard to score.

This team is going to waste this talent we've got.

That kick sums up Max's nightĀ 

Melbourne 2021

Geelong 2022

Potentially Port 2023

All quick burst scoring with just sheer brute speed and perfection in the middle. Teams get spooked and you're behind before you even realise it's 10 goals difference.

We had our moment in 2021. The days of Richmond, Hawthorn, Brisbane type flags are over (for now).

32 years old next year. Heā€™s has knee recos and the back of his head has been caved in with the constant punches over the last few years. Heā€™s near the end and isnā€™t going to have much of a meaningful impact onfield going forward.

Ā 

Langdon one of them, what a difference with Hunter.

Only melbourne can make rohan look like an actual footballer.Ā 


Feels similar to the Port loss.. wet night, we didnā€™t adjust and the opposition took opportunities by more composureĀ 

Congratulations Gary Rohan, tonight's recipient of the Kent Kingsley Award For Spuds Who Play Well Against Melbourne award.

Full credit to Salem.

He hasn't played for eons.

Comes back and immediately asserts himself as a great player.

There are lot of players that could learn from his comittinment.

We played some good footy followed by dome really dumb footy.

Max needs to stop doing podcasts and focus on playing footy again.

Exactly they are a mid table team at best this year, this is slightly above the Essendon loss for our worst performance of the year. Our players pick and choose when they can be bothered, with the talent they have on the list it is infuriating that they are letting it go to waste. We should be dominating the competition but we are looking like also rans

  • REPORT: Geelong

    I was disappointed to hear Goody say at his post match presser after the teamā€™s 39 point defeat against Geelong that "we're getting high quality entry, just poor execution" because Melbourneā€™s problems extend far beyond that after its 0 - 4 start to the 2025 football season.Ā 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.Ā Since that game, the Demonsā€™ 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 theyā€™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 ā€˜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. Sundayā€™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 0ā€“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.
