Goal umpires gun shy now

It's silly because if they call it a goal it will get reviewed anyway it's only when it's a called a point that there is a issue.

 

[censored] the the commentators. it’s like they are willing injures for us.

It’s not an ACL for Melksham as there is no knee twist. Could be an MCL which isn’t good either. 
Fingers crossed he’s ok. 
 

FOR THE LOVE OF GOD END THIS GAME

 

Hopefully May, Gawn and Trac can spend plenty of time on the bench in the last Q

So Melk has been subbed and what about Frit?

Fritta foot taped up and he's back on

 

WTF (why not what) do I read the game day thread.

Please someone with a real clue give me an update on injuries, freakin' the ef out here, and I live in a war zone.


We looked much better in that last 5 minutes. Laurie having an immediate impact.

 

Trac and Viney made the difference the second half of that quarter.

I have know idea why Tmac was not named sub. Why Laurie. Fritta was a gamble and who was going to replace him. Poor selection.

We're a disgrace and we're not worthy of top 4 and will be smashed by Collingwood.

Am I doing it right?

You missed Goodwin 🤪

Save the last 5 minutes, and it’d be pretty accurate

my opinion. 

Fritsch rolled his ankle. back on. he’s fine

Melksham tweaked something. doubt he’ll play in the next few weeks

I’d drop him regardless

Have been saying this for ages and now people are seeing it, that's why Turner should stay at least he has a bit of dog in him.

In the last 10 minutes of each quarter, the Demons have outscored the Swans 4.2 (26) to 0.4 (4).
 

now that’s an anomaly

Get on the phone to the PM Goody 

 

Jeez how good from Melksham to come back up and immediately start handing low-fives to the bench.

The man deserves a flag for all he's been through, and you'd think he won't get one now but that's not stopping him from doing everything he can to help out.

  • 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.
