Best.  May. Windsor. Gawn. Trac. 

Brown not a touch 

Fritsch chasing shadows

others are seriously down tonight 

umps are 🤢🤢🤡🤡🤡🤢🤡🤢🤡🤡

 

Solid half of footy.  We have been quite fumble at times, so a bit to tidy up.  Great to see McVee in great form.

Biggest frustration that half for me was Rivers kicking.  Missed a short one that gave up a goal which happens.  The real frustration is when he kicks long and it goes super high and takes for ever to get there.  Kick it long, fast and flat and it becomes a weapon.

Ch 7 / Kayo seem to be barracking for it.  I am sure Christian won't see that harmless act as a footy action

Threw out the elbow a bit. As an impartial I’d give him a week purely for stupidity. Not good timing as we need him for the Lions

His problem is he's got form.

Fair enough if he doesn't get the benefit of the doubt.

Needs to cut that stuff out.

 

Oliver, Salo and even Anb very quiet.

If they lift we are home.

We need to put the foot down and get 5 or 6 goals clear of the crows and umps (crumps) in the 3rd.

 

The best combination of defensive and attacking football I have sen from McVee. Under pressure a lot of the time too. 
 

Another JT special. 
 

Man fanning both atm

Yep that’s a week for sure, contact with the head tucked the arm in left the ground looked for the contact, if unlucky could be 2

ANB continuing the good form as well IMO. McDonald, Lever, and McVee have all been great as well in defence.

I love Riv, but I think his short disposal game can be questionable at times

That's because you flip flop, ya duffer.

No I don’t, I always said we were capable of first


Oliver's hand obviously hampering him big time.

 

WTF is wrong with Clarry?? Non existent, hand worse than thought? Never seen him have so little influence🥹

McVee BOG imo 

Kozzie will get 1 week for that due to the new rule of “potential to cause harm”

Refer the Liam Baker suspension last week.

Why does he keep putting himself in these situations?


umps normaly dont worry me but tonights its not what they are paying but what they arent

No force or impact or injury.

He is not a Pies player and will get suspended.

What I am seeing so far.

Windsor is all class as is Mc Vee.

Excellent game from Petracca so far and the work of the defence is just wonderful.

I like JVR's game so far as well. He is moving well and throwing himself about a bit.

I also like that the coaching team are using Gawn well. Giving him breaks as required and breaking up Crow's structure.

Viney is also having a very good game. Just doing what he usually does.

What I am looking for in the second half.

More midfield pressure and a bit more teamwork to break Oliver free. 

Defence to carry on as is.

Like that we just pushed on with the game.

Go Dees!

  • NON-MFC: Round 09

    Round 9 kicks off out west with the Dockers hosting a Collingwood side resting several stars. Fremantle need to make a statement on their home deck after some disappointing form on the road, while the Magpies will be keen to maintain their Top 2 position. Friday night sees a must-win clash between two sides desperate to stay in touch with the eight. St Kilda have shown glimpses while Carlton are clinging to relevance after a flat start to the season. Saturday’s twilight game at Marvel pits the Bombers against a struggling Sydney outfit. Essendon can’t afford another close match against a lower-ranked side, while the Swans risk sliding down the ladder even further. Up in Darwin, the fourth-placed Suns will look to extend their stay in the top four. The Bulldogs have hit their stride with three big wins on the trot and will be very keen to consolidate on their momentum. The always fiery Showdown looms as pivotal for both clubs. Adelaide are eyeing a spot in the Top 4 with a win, while Port Adelaide’s season could slip away if they drop another game and fall further behind the pack. Sunday begins with a yawn fest between Richmond and West Coast. The Tigers need to bank the points to stay clear of the bottom two, while the Eagles are still chasing their first win of the year. The Giants face one of the league’s toughest road trips as they travel to GMHBA Stadium to face the Cats. With GWS at risk of a third straight loss, Geelong will be eager to consolidate their position inside the eight and start their climb up the ladder. The round wraps up with the top-of-the-table Lions heading to Ninja Stadium to take on the second-last Roos. The Lions should easily take care of the struggling Roos who might be powerless against the best in the comp. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?

  • PREVIEW: Hawthorn

    Melbourne and Hawthorn who face off against each other this week have more in common than having once almost merged and about to wear a blue jumper with a red v triangle and an embroidered picture of a bird on the front. They also share the MCG as their main home ground, their supporters are associated with the leafy suburbs of Melbourne and in recent times, James Frawley graced the colours of both teams. Even more recently, both have bounced back from disastrous five game losing streaks to start off a season. Of course, the Hawks turned their bounce into a successful leap from the bottom of the ladder into a finals appearance, making it to the semifinals in 2024 and this year, they’re riding high in third place on the AFL table. The Demons are just three games into their 2025 bounce back, and are yet to climb their way out of the bottom four although they are sitting a game and percentage out of the top eight. However, with the current sportsbet odds of $3.90 to win this week’s encounter, it seems a forlorn hope that their upward progression will continue much longer.

  • 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.
