  • Demonland changed the title to 2023 MFC Top 5 Marks & Goals
 

Chandlers goal from early in the year where he sprinted down the wing then across from one flank to another to take the mark and goal was terrific as well. Would love to see it again.

 

Melksy’s mark and goal vs Brisbane, though. 🤯 Will never forget that moment. Same goes with Melksy’s mark and goal vs Carlton followed by Melksy feeding the ball out to Kozzie from under the pack, Kozzie kicking the winner, round 22, 2022.

Melksy is made for these moments.

PS Kozzie is a bona fide freak of nature. 

You watch these marks, and you watch these goals, and your juices start to flow, and you just want the f’ing footy to start again, now.

Memorable goal.  Crucial goal.  Match winning goal.  Inspirational goal.  Jump out of your seat goal.

BUT ... it was a relatively simple set shot from in front and only great because of the context.  Had it been the first quarter it wouldn't even be in consideration for one of the goals for the year.

I thought any Melbourne goal was worthy of GOTY contention purely because it’s just that… a goal. 😜

  • POSTGAME: Essendon

    Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

  • GAMEDAY: Essendon

    It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?

  • PREVIEW: Essendon

    As the focus of the AFL moves exclusively to South Australia for Gather Round, the question is raised as to what are we going to get from the  Melbourne Football Club this weekend? Will it be a repeat of the slop fest of the last three weeks that have seen the team score a measly 174 points and concede 310 or will a return to the City of Churches and the scene where they performed at their best in 2024 act as a wakeup call and bring them out of their early season reverie?  Or will the sleepy Dees treat their fans to a reenactment of their lazy effort from the first Gather Round of two years ago when they allowed the Bombers to trample all over them on a soggy and wet Adelaide Oval? The two examples from above tell us how fickle form can be in football. Last year, a committed group of players turned up in Adelaide with a businesslike mindset. They had a plan, went in confidently and hard for the football and kicked winning scores against both home teams in a difficult environment for visitors. And they repeated that sort of effort later in the season when they played Essendon at the MCG.

    Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?
