Great result for us. 
A win for us this week will cement top 4 by a win and decent % 

 

I think most of us were hoping for another draw

    That was epic Daicos. Clinical. Blues won’t lose 3 on the trot unfortunately.

    They will. 
    they are [censored] in the semi last year we dominated with with no forward line. Carlton won’t get within 4 goals of us next week..

    Not great when Pies win, but great when Blues lose.

    Love that the Blues lost, hate that the Filth won.

    Cripps was Crapp !

    Dam, I think it's worse that they won by such a small margin.

    Was hoping for a draw in the end.

    Of course it had to be daicos that kicked the sealer.

    That final centre bounce was horrible by the carlton mids.

    Although I laughed that hodgey was saying that was deliberate when pendles kicked it. That would make the pies fans happy

    Zero defensive pressure on Daicos in that stoppage set up in that last score.

    Absolute coach killer. Tight game like that with a minute to go everyone who's played footy would know that the golden rule in that situation would be to go full lock down on your opponent and number up around stoppage.

    Turn the contest into a complete grind by not only chewing up as much seconds as you can but also gain as much metres forward as possible.

    Someone is going to cop it in the Monday team review..

    Carlton have been really good at winning close ones recently but have lost three in a row. 

    Walsh got left behind by Daicos. He’ll be filthy. Expect him to come out red hot next week.

    The Zac Williams sub is to blame for that.

    Anyone have an idea of the %win rate for teams on back to back 6 day breaks in recent years?

    Carlton are on back to back 6 day breaks next week which surely isn’t a bad thing for us.

    • 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.

    • GAMEDAY: Sydney

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons have a golden opportunity to build on last week’s stirring win by toppling Sydney at the MCG. A victory today would keep them firmly in the hunt for a finals spot and help them stay in touch with the pack chasing a place in the Top 8. Can the Dees make it two in a row and bring down the Swans?
