She is a defender. 183cm. It’ll be interesting to see who she’s replacing. Excited for her! 

Described in the MFC article as a key forward 🤷‍♀️ Let's go with versatile! Hopefully the scan comes up clear for Maddi.

Love what her teammates say about her.

Unfortunately it’s looking as though predicted strong winds means we won’t be able to raise her milestone banner tomorrow. (Yet another Casey negative.) It’s especially disappointing because the players helped us make this banner so it’s pretty special. The Guard of Honour will just have to be twice as long as usual, which may mean it starts from the carpark, such is the length of our usual GoH 🤣

 

reckon it might be a touch windy at Casey today!

Y’ think???? 😜

It’s a good thing there’s so many windbreaks at Casey! 🙄

Hullo from Bribie Is (where they're also having such a touch!)

An extra dose of concentration required from the girls, then. With only half a game to score in, and the other half presenting a heightened defence challenge, this is the sort of game that can slip through the collective fingers.

Go (carefully) Dees!

game plan - 

give to Bannan and she runs it into the square 

an incorrect disposal free straight away. Fair enough but I hope the umps are consistent for the rest of the day

 

If there was ever a good shot for goal that ended up a point that one from Galway Gall was one. Most AFLW players wouldn’t get near the distance kicking in to the breeze from there. She looks a talent

it really is appalling

we're hitting the scoreboard and making it count now


Trademark inexcusable mistake from Birch and then Wilson beat dead in the foot race. 

didn't get near full value for our dominance in that quarter. left 3-4 goals out there.

Freo are game but if we hold them in the 3rd we're home.

Death, Taxes and DeeSpencer having a crack at Birch.

Or paxy. He thought she should have retired about 5 years ago. 


Just now, whatwhat say what said:

that holding the ball call can get in the bin

You know its bad when the commentary expresses their surprise 

how are we not 50 pts+ up? 

lazy kicking.  especially that Zanker one from 10m, can’t blame the wind for that

  • 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.
