Jeez we are good at turning an advantage call into a mess. 

Some bloody composure would be nice FFS.

 

1 goal 6 same [censored] AS PREVIOUS JUST SHIZZEN GOODNIGHT!

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.

 

1st quarter

Xx kicking efficiency horrible 

Xx goalkicking Spargo Fritsch

Back to Van Diemens Land

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.


Looks exactly the same as last year so far

WASTING POSSESSIONS

Fix it up Goodwin

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.

  • 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?

  • FEATURE: 1925

    A hundred years ago today, on 2 May 1925, Melbourne kicked off the new season with a 47 point victory over St Kilda to take top place on the VFL ladder after the opening round of the new season.  Top place was a relatively unknown position for the team then known as the “Fuchsias.” They had finished last in 1923 and rose by only one place in the following year although the final home and away round heralded a promise of things to come when they surprised the eventual premiers Essendon. That victory set the stage for more improvement and it came rapidly. In this series, I will tell the story of how the 1925 season unfolded for the Melbourne Football Club and how it made the VFL finals for the first time in a decade on the way to the ultimate triumph a year later.
