Chin isnโ€™t the smartest footballer going around. Needs to stay composed and have some peripheral vision. 

 

Plenty of chances to clear and stuffed it up, losing the quarter 

 

Clarrys defensive work ethic in back pocket was non existent-  a few danger signsโ€ฆ


This is a really poor quarter 

We dont defend the handball chain through the corridor well at all, classic dees game, dominate most of the game and only up by 2 goals at halftime. 

 

Chin having a poor game. Should have left that ball in the goal area to Windsor but got in the way. Ball ends up with st Kilda and they get the goal


This is a horrible game. Getting derped out of it.

Clarry has zero defensive IQ full stop. Great midfield bull 

Narrm. Playing again are they ?

Two weeks in a row May is getting beaten. Needs to find some form.

And we don't have a gun tall fwd like a King.

Thank Goodness for Fritta but he can't kick all our goals.

You can predict which way this is going to go.

He looks COOKED!

Shocking skills and decision making that quarter, need to pull our finger out after halftime ๐Ÿ˜“

We have garbage forwards and zero structure, sack Stafford!

Neither mids or forwards have any idea what to do when we get it 80m out

Gee goody needs to fix these players attitude.  Pathetic quarter & our good players need to start dominating.

Tommo is playing well though 

 

You can also file this under the road to top 4 thread. 

We are not a top 4 team 

Sloppy skills, canโ€™t kick, weโ€™re making the saints look good now haha

Lame 

Sorry everyone, I went and put on a scarf in the first quarter break while watching at home in Sydney.  Haven't unpacked the gear from when I last visited Melbourne, so grabbed the premiership scarf which hangs by my bed instead.  Might have mozzed us for that quarter!

  • CASEY: Geelong

    There was a time in the second quarter of the game at the Cattery on Friday afternoon when the Casey Demons threatened to take the game apart against the Cats. The Demons had been well on top early but were struggling to convert their ascendancy over the ground until Tom Fullartonโ€™s burst of three goals in the space of eight minutes on the way to a five goal haul and his best game for the club since arriving from Brisbane at the end of 2023. He was leading, marking and otherwise giving his opponents a merry dance as Casey grabbed a three goal lead in the blink of an eye. Fullarton has now kicked ten goals in Caseyโ€™s three matches and, with Melbourneโ€™s forward conversion woes, he is definitely in with a chance to get his first game with the club in next weekโ€™s Gather Round in Adelaide. Despite the tall forwardโ€™s efforts - he finished with 19 disposals and eight marks and had four hit outs as back up to Will Verrall in the second half - it wasnโ€™t enough as Geelong reigned in the lead through persistent attacks and eventually clawed their way to the lead early in the last and held it till they achieved the end aim of victory.

  • REPORT: Geelong

    I was disappointed to hear Goody say at his post match presser after the teamโ€™s 39 point defeat against Geelong that "we're getting high quality entry, just poor execution" because Melbourneโ€™s problems extend far beyond that after its 0 - 4 start to the 2025 football season. There are clearly problems with poor execution, some of which were evident well before the current season and were in play when the Demons met the Cats in early May last year and beat them in a near top-of-the-table clash that saw both sides sitting comfortably in the top four after round eight. Since that game, the Demonsโ€™ performances have been positively Third World with only five wins in 19 games with a no longer majestic midfield and a dysfunctional forward line that has become too easy for opposing coaches to counter. This is an area of their game that is currently being played out as if they were all completely panic-stricken.

  • PREGAME: Essendon

    Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where theyโ€™ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

  • NON-MFC: Round 04

    Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the โ€˜G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sundayโ€™s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?
