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.

    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

    • 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?
