Sloppy first half but Hawks pressure was high. 

Happy to secure the second chance. 😮‍💨 
 

 
 

I’m getting used to this top 4 thing!

Great game by Lever. Rivers, Gus and Melk good, too

 


I only got to see the last half due to other commitments, but the game went fairly much to script I would have thought. The Hawks are no easy beats, and they took it right up to us.

Our stoppage and clearnace work looked a but shaky (this is an opinion, I haven't looked at the stats) 

Lever, Melksham, Rivers and Viney looked like standouts. 

I think all but one of Bowey's disposals were turnovers or goals - he is a bit of a worry. 

Our ability to defend from anywhere on the ground is a thing of beauty. Brayshaw, Hunter, ANB getting back to help out time and time again keeps us in every game we play. 

JVR - chills.

Top 4, and looking as strong or better than the other 3.

 

Were playing finals and Geelong aren't.

Why was trac handballing, does he have a sore foot?

Oliver looked like someone who hasn't played alot of footy this year. Laurie showed enough. Tmac needs to return. Kozzie looks disinterested, needs a week at Casey to wake him up. Viney is a beast... McVee looks good, Rivers is a potential captain.  Hope Fritch is ready for finals. Van rooyen = a long year for a debut season.

A one dimensional team this is not.

Sit on Oliver and keep Trac quiet, we can still beat you.

Viney and Brayshaw have been very good

Jake Lever marked everything that came his way

For some bizarre reason he double punched one right in front of the interchange bench. Otherwise he would have gobbled that up too.

Apologies to Jake Bowey but he made some rank mistakes the last 2 weeks. Needs to be better than that. Schache a strange sub.

He just really had his eye in today. Like a radar 

I’m just glad we got the win and no injuries. Hawks were always going to be hard to beat. Double chance secured so let’s go to Sydney and play with a little more freedom and fluency.

anb was excellent. Lever Gus jvr Viney also impressive.

looking forward to finals.

go dees

Kozzie is never playing at Casey.

I wonder if some are still shivering? 😝

Port will know at h/f break that Melbourne won. Be interesting to see how they perform in 2nd half.

They want to finish 3rd????. and play at the Gabba.   BS

I dont . Ive said all along lock in 4th.

If by some miracle Essendone win we'll know beforehand and then rethink the Buddy Circus.

Pies will finish 1 and we'll be waiting.

  • Demonland changed the title to POSTGAME: Rd 23 vs Hawthorn

Well they beat the Pies and the Dogs, but they can’t beat the mighty Dees

To me it looks like Bowey has been told to be more offensive? I reckon McVee is still the more defensive HB, with both of Salem and Bowey trying to hurt the opposition with their ball use, however it hasn't worked as of late.

So he is a worry for giving up a goal...every player makes mistakes.

Terrific win but the second chance is a priority asset as you mention. We will need it - just for injuries, most likely; perhaps, a drop in form over a gruelling finals season might cause a hiccup, regretfully. Good call, McQueen.

 

Credit to the club and players for securing top four for the 3rd successive season. Something completely unprecedented in my time following the Demons, and something to be very grateful for. I actually felt we were getting a bit shaky for finals before the last win streak so top four is a massive result. 

Do they have it in them to find a way to 3 more wins this year? I'm not sure but they have given themselves a chance to fight for it...if we can't take home the ultimate prize I hope we make another team really earn it on the way out...

  • Thank You Simon Goodwin

    As Demon fans, we’ve ridden a rollercoaster of emotions over the decades; the heartbreaks, the near misses, the wooden spoons, and the endless waiting. But through it all, we clung to hope. And then came Simon Goodwin. Before he ever wore red and blue, he was a champion in his own right. A five-time All-Australian, two-time Best and Fairest, and two-time premiership hero and Captain with Adelaide, Simon Goodwin was always destined to lead. When he transitioned from the field to the coach's box, first as an assistant at Essendon, he began shaping a new legacy.

  • PREVIEW: Western Bulldogs

    Long ago and far away, the Melbourne Football Club replaced its coach in difficult circumstances after the team suffered a devastating loss. In the aftermath, I penned the following words: “Then came the politics, the intrigue, the axing, the sound of the football world laughing at a club, the circling of the media vultures, the reinvention of history, the anger, the irony, the pathos, the hurt on the face of the president, the dignified departure of the coach, and the determination of the newly appointed caretaker.” Today, we’re back in the same place although one difference here is that the coach who was terminated this time is Simon Goodwin, the man who four years ago

  • REPORT: West Coast

    The Charles Dickens novel, A Tale of Two Cities, opens with, “It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, …”  This phrase highlights many of the significant challenges that humanity encounters in life, ranging from experiencing remarkable highs to living in times of despair. This is a concept that should resonate with all supporters of the Melbourne Football Club this morning as they reflect on its comprehensive 83-point victory over the struggling West Coast Eagles at Marvel Stadium. The outcome proved beyond doubt that they are the worst of clubs and that we are the best of the worst.

  • PREGAME: Western Bulldogs

    With only 3 games to go, all against Top 8 fancies, the Demons face a daunting task as they return to the MCG when they play the Western Bulldogs. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • POSTGAME: West Coast

    The Demons return to town fresh off a thumping win over the back-to-back wooden spooners, the West Coast Eagles, played in front of a sparse crowd at Marvel Stadium, the same venue that hosted last week's heartbreaking loss.
