    Wow, this is everything that was bad about our game last year. 


    Great passage of play, but look where we kick it to - the pocket, which may as well be the 10th row.

    Looks like it's the exact same Melbourne we saw last year. No difference whatsoever.

    It’s interesting to watch the clash of styles, good kicking versus terrible kicking. Which will win?! Tune in to find out.

    Worst sports job in Australia would be playing in Melbourne's forward line.

    Bad kicking is bad football and all that 

    Really is as simple as that 

    Game style hasn't and just won't change.

    Not looking sharpe at the moment, they look like they are rusty in the touch if the footy.  Had opportunities l, just need to capitalise on the this qtr.   swan got a definite plan going. 


    Didn't like that first quarter. Our ball movement is still stagnant or kick in hope. We're burning all our chances. We've got a few who are seriously lacking intensity out there too.

    Viney digging in as always though. Such a warrior and the ultimate team mate. Follow his lead boys!

    Liking some of the efforts by Schache. Sparrow looks stronger than previously.

    • 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.

    • 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.

    • GAMEDAY: West Coast

      It's Game Day and the Demons have a chance to notch up their third consecutive win — something they haven’t done since Round 5, 2024. But to do it, they’ll need to exorcise the Demons of last year’s disastrous trip out West. Can the Dees continue their momentum, right the wrongs of that fateful clash, and take another step up the ladder on the road to redemption?
