Hard to see us overcoming Brisbane midfield. In another class to Jordan and Sparrow. Not just classy but damaging.

This is going to be a huge margin to recover in this final quarter. 
But when you look at the game, we have been dominant, but sloppy. 
 

Looking like another, wasted game on our way to trying to win multiple premierships. 

I think the multiple premiership dream, in the next 3 years, is gone

22 was the year 

Probably this, but it’s gone too

 

Been a long time since we conceded 100+ points. 
A big mistake letting this game turn into a shootout. A big mistake.

Love McVee tonight but how do players not know how much time is left. 

it was touched 


Mcvee should have had awareness then. I get he probably wanted to find a better option but gee Judd just take a shot 

Need to score the first two goals to be a chance.

 

Second to the ball, no winners in the air getting smashed when the ball hits the ground they are bullying us.

I hate to admit it.

We look slow.

Four Umps out there and not one is watching for what for exactly what we added an Ump for.

Its always the umpires fault when MFC loses.

 

The dees dynasty is over

Just dumb football 

Dumb footballers play dumb football 

Hard not to conclude that Goodwin just isn’t the guy to take this list forward. They don’t seem to have the work rate, look uninterested and don’t seem to be able to execute under pressure. Quite a few looking for others to do the hard stuff. Our leaders seem to tolerate underperformance.

Unfortunately our backline played like our fwd line tonight.

Soft as butter free


Why don’t the umpires call play on when Brisbane players go off their line. They throw their hands up but no loud shouts come through the telecast.

Actually pretty poor by May

  • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

    The media has performed a complete reversal in its coverage of the Melbourne Football Club over the past month and a half. Having endured intense criticism from all quarters in the press, which continually identified new avenues for scrutiny of every aspect, both on and off the field, and prematurely speculated about the departures of coaches, players, officials, and various employees from a club that lost its first five matches and appeared out of finals contention, the narrative has suddenly shifted to one of unbridled optimism.  The Demons have won five of their last six matches, positioning themselves just one game (and a considerable amount of percentage) outside the top eight at the halfway mark of the season. They still trail the primary contenders and remain far from assured of a finals berth.

  • REPORT: Sydney

    A few weeks ago, I visited a fellow Melbourne Football Club supporter in hospital, and our conversation inevitably shifted from his health diagnosis to the well-being of our football team. Like him, Melbourne had faced challenges in recent months, but an intervention - in his case, surgery, and in the team's case, a change in game style - had brought about much improvement.  The team's professionals had altered its game style from a pedestrian and slow-moving approach, which yielded an average of merely 60 points for five winless games, to a faster and more direct style. This shift led to three consecutive wins and a strong competitive effort in the fourth game, albeit with a tired finish against Hawthorn, a strong premiership contender.  As we discussed our team's recent health improvement, I shared my observations on the changes within the team, including the refreshed style, the introduction of new young talent, such as rising stars Caleb Windsor, Harvey Langford, and Xavier Lindsay, and the rebranding of Kozzy Pickett from a small forward to a midfield machine who can still get among the goals. I also highlighted the dominance of captain Max Gawn in the ruck and the resurgence in form in a big way of midfield superstars Christian Petracca and Clayton Oliver.

  • POSTGAME: Sydney

    The Demons controlled the contest from the outset, though inaccurate kicking kept the Swans in the game until half time. But after the break, Melbourne put on the jets and blew Sydney away and the demolition job was complete.

  • CASEY: Northern Bullants

    The Casey Demons travelled to a windy Cramer Street, Preston yesterday and blew the Northern Bullants off the ground for three quarters before shutting up shop in the final term, coasting to a much-needed 71-point victory after leading by almost 15 goals at one stage. It was a pleasing performance that revived the Demons’ prospects for the 2025 season but, at the same time, very little can be taken from the game because of the weak opposition. These days, the Bullants are little more than road kill. The once proud club, situated behind the Preston Market in a now culturally diverse area, is currently facing significant financial and on-field challenges, having failed to secure a win to date in 2025.
