We've had a lot of below par performances. Rivers, Salem, Billings, Howes, Sparrow all average

    Midfield getting owned 


    Too often outnumbered at the contest and second to the ball 

     

    Our midfield is having a shocker. What is going on with our clearances? 
    That is a killer goal to give away from an easy centre clearance 

    Quiet night from Oliver.

    13 touches no marks.

    Viney exactly the same.

    Salo mia.

    No midfield 

    No fwd line.


    We are done

    aside from patches we haven’t played well enough to win

    That's a  handy break now 

    Quiet night from Oliver.

    13 touches no marks.

    Viney exactly the same.

    Salo mia.

    No midfield 

    No fwd line.

    This game is gone.


    Have to say this is the worst team performance this season for mine.

    Players running past the ball far too often.  Players fumbling.  Handballs at players feet.  Rivers playing on and handing it straight back.

    Kicks falling short.  Losing the clearances at CBs and stoppages pretty badly surely?

    It's so dodgy.

    We are in this game purely by grunt and effort. Our skills are sub standard tonight. Along with our handball link play. 

    We're not as close as the scores suggest. They are smacking us in the air, on the ground, and at stoppages. 

    Port is an average good side but they always play their Grand Final against us and we get sucked into their ducking.

    Lever and our defense have been incredible. To concede I my 10 goals so far from this inside 50 onslaught is admirable. Shame our midfield aren't performing to help dig us out of a hole. Still time here but it's tough going.

    • 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.
