Has Q4 started yet? When are we coming out? 

 

Game over, I’m switching off like the boys have already done. 

So glad we didnt trade all those picks for Harley Reid.

 

Salem has disappeared in the second half as well


Grundy close to BOG tonight. Good on him. Disappointing from Gawn tonight. Had his colors lowered for the first time in years.

 

Goodwin 

you who let Grundy go

and who has no idea how a fowardline works 

Please go


Goodwin is killing this list. Even if we win he is useless 

Where is the passion for [censored] sake!

Welp. Some serious soulsearching required by this club after tonight's performance. Feels like a continuation of the end of last year.


Goal JVR - it was below knee.  We actually had a review in our favour.  Long time coming.

Maybe, can’t deny Grundy hasn’t deliberately contributed to that. He’s followed the same pattern all game and Horse is a waaaayyyyy better game day coach that Goodwin.

Goodwin is a coach that can only deliver when everything goes his way unfortunately.

We desperately need Petty in the side.

We need a new COACH

It's hard to admit, but our reject ruckman has outplayed Max tonight.

Poor coaching. End of story 

No skills by hand.  No enough instinctive tap ons.

No forwards have stood up other than a few sneaky opportunist goals from Fritta.

Open players everywhere when we turn the ball over.

Where's the close checking hard nosed pressure and defense in general play?

And 2022, and...

  • 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.
