Chin isn’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 signs…


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 😓

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, can’t kick, we’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!

  • 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?
