Absolutely pathetic quarter of football. Fritter is so lazy. ANB having a mare. Clarries poor form continues. Kozzie constantly overruns and goes for the ball one handed. Rivers impressive.

    pretty poor effort after  a half decent first quarter they have done absolutely nothing. if north kicked straight we would be in trouble, having said that i am not feeling overly confident the way we are playing. maybe sub off oliver he is playing a stupid brand of football giving away frees and 50 meter penalties. he needs more time to get his head straight, as well as get his game back on track.

    A totally different storey if they had kicked 5 goals too.    Yes if your Auntie had nuts she would be your uncle,  but we played poorly. Is the point


    What happened after the siren? Max very angry with a North player.

    Umpiring is absolutely diabolical! I mean I thought if you take possession and take on a tackler and get stripped of the ball its incorrect disposal. Not tonight.

    That's our season folks

    Regardless of the result, we're becoming pathetic 

    Silver lining is that maybe this precipitates Goodwin's farewell?

    Not sure the board has the guts but one can dream.

    Even game. We are not coping with their run  They are not coping with our possession game. 

    Hard tag and lots of physicality onto Clarry. Fritta being double and triple teamed. 

    Our spot-up kick, or 45 degrees line changing kick rarely working. Often being read early by the Roos and cutting it off.


    Name me a more lazy player for this team

    What is with our second qtrs this year? It seems that the opposition makes a few tweaks and then we have no answer.

    Kozzy is playing amateur style football, just pure chaos.

    Clarence is really off his game & it’s really annoying me. He’s always gotten sucked into off the ball stuff way too easily. He’s better than that

    All I saw was Cherry with an X run through our huddle as we were jogging off.  That might’ve started the melee

    Forward isn't a bad call.

    Getting paid might be the only thing they’re interested in…..by whom though?

    • PREVIEW: West Coast

      It was bad enough that the Melbourne Football Club created yet another humiliating scenario inside its wretched season at Marvel Stadium last Sunday, but the final insult is that it has been commanded to return to the scene of the crime to inflict further punishment on its fans this week. Incidentally, if this match preview, of a game that promises to be one of the most unattractive fixtures in the history of the game, happens to cut out of your computer screen three quarters of the way through, it’s no coincidence. I’ll be mirroring the Demons’ lacklustre effort against St Kilda from last Sunday when they conceded the largest last quarter turnaround for victory in the history of the game.

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.

    • CASEY: Sandringham

      The Casey Demons rebounded from a sluggish start to manufacture a decisive win against Sandringham in the final showdown, culminating a quarter century of intense rivalry between the fluctuating alignments of teams affiliated with AFL clubs Melbourne and St Kilda, as the Saints and the Zebras prepare to forge independent paths in 2026. After conceding three of the first four goals of the match, the Demons went on a goal kicking rampage instigated by the winning ruck combination of Tom Campbell with 26 hitouts, 26 disposals and 13 clearances and his apprentice Will Verrall who contributed 20 hitouts. This gave first use of the ball to the likes of Jack Billings, Bayley Laurie, Riley Bonner and Koltyn Tholstrup who was impressive early. By the first break they had added seven goals and took a strong grip on the game. The Demons were well served up forward early by Mitch Hardie and, as the game progressed, Harry Sharp proved a menace with a five goal performance. Emerging young forwards Matthew Jefferson and Luker Kentfield kicked two each but the former let himself down with some poor kicking for goal.
      Young draft talent Will Duursma showed the depth of his talent and looks well out of reach for Melbourne this year. Kalani White was used sparingly and had a brief but uneventful stint in the ruck.

      The Demons return to the scene of the crime on Saturday to face the wooden spooners the Eagles at the Docklands. Who comes in and who goes out? Like moving deck chairs on the Titanic.
