TMac on fire.  🔥

This is almost comical. Two teams that don’t know how to score.

Macadam is such Garlett type no strength in the contest

Let's hope he's a Bartlett type. We would gladly take 40+ goals year after year.


Switch across the middle on occasions to change angles coming inside 50.

Almost always kicking in straight lines.  Too easy to defend unless the kicker is an elite short pass which we have very few of.

Look to get it into the hands of ANB where possible for the last kick inside.

Today if it’s not Tmac it’s Tommo. Never mind May or Lever

This is typical of Melbourne games this year. 

Messy. No flow. Slow transition.  Clogged forward line.  Poor/wasted final kick.  Inaccurate.  Leaning on defence.

We're kidding ourselves if we play this style against the big boys. 

 

 

 

 

Thank goodness vines decided to take the game on, much better transition from the back half.

Sick of us leading to the pockets.

3 years now?

Come on that’s bang, bang. Where is the next

What has happened to Tom Sparrow this year?

Was meant to be the next midfield beast, and is just a ‘meh’ player at best.

Big boys don't flood or run 15 tags.


Petty. [censored]. Can’t hold a chest mark. Trips over. Well win this with Chin, Petty and McAdam with no goals between them.

Better

2nd Q’s are our worst

we need to kick 3-4 early or this will be an arm wrestle right to the end

good call mate

 

I do like it when that little goal umpire signals a goal.   I remember him playing

  • 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.
