Great goal from Grundy. He has special skills for a guy his size. 
I like Moniz Wakefield in the middle. Could that be his role at AFL level?

    BG seems to have a long torso but shorter legs which could be the reason he’s so good at ground level. Huge unit though. Seems to cover the ground relatively quickly for a big guy too.

    Very obvious free to Grundy not paid. Absolute rubbish. 
     

    Adams looking likely. Doing some nice work.

    If Schache could be this good at AFL level we’d be laughing. 

    We’ve only played him 1 game. We really should have given him more given time how much we’ve let JVR coast at AFL level.

    There is a reason we are his third AFL club. And he was a top 10 pick. 
    It’s because he hasn’t been able to perform at the highest level in basically any role, even playing for very good teams.

    What’s with the commentary being so over the top when Coburg does anything? 🙄

    Jefferson is special. Adams also looks the goods at the other end. 
     

    Seston not doing much.

    seriously good play and goal from Jefferson

    Watching him closely last few weeks I think he’s going to be someone Special in the future

    He has his own way of going about the game and continues to surprise each week as his confidence grows

    How is Brodie looking up forward?

    Just ok.

    But could have 4 goals if he kicks better

    Not good for mine

    gives away free kicks

    doesnt lead and has no leap

    doesnt convert 

    you can’t make a silk purse…

    He’s a ruckman

    Verrell is much better and further ahead of Farris White. Which isn’t surprising. 
    Verrell looks good. No idea who his opponent is to be fair.

    Hibberd being rested this quarter ??

    Fair enough too. They obviously just wanted to get a run in his legs after a few weeks off with the kidney injury. 
    Nothing he can learn at this level. He’s waaaay too good for VFL it’s laughable.

    • PREVIEW: 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.

      The Demons return to the MCG to take on the High Flying Hawks on Saturday Afternoon. Hawthorn will be aiming to consolidate a position in the Top 4 whilst the Dees will be looking to take a scalp and make it four wins in a row. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • 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.
