Windsor's two stupid 50m penalties were the momentum swingers. 

Worrying last quarter.

Viney, Gawn and ANB showed outstanding leadership in the last 5 mins.

Not sure what was in Kozzie's head tonight but he looked timid and disinterested

A LOT of youth tonight - Kolstrup, Brown, Turner, Howes, Windsor. Kolstrup showed a bit.

    Don't blame the umpires, we were garbage in that last quarter. Look within 

    “Look within”.

    Indeed, and the inquiry show go back to pre-season 2022.

    Any reason why there was more Kangaroo's supporters tonight? It's our home game right?

    there wasn't.  they were just spirited and going for the kill. reminded me of when we beat Hawthorn in 2016. They were top of the ladder, coming off 3 flags, won like 10 games in a row up to that game, and we steamrolled them in the last. Sounded like we had 90k there that day.

    He needs to walk the plank ED14, along with the Pres who came in riding the coattails of GB, and has managed to oversee a breathtaking case of ignorance and complacency

    I'm concerned that they "the coaches" are scared of subbing Oliver out of the game. A lot of coaches would have dragged him just for the silly frees he gave away.

    Send Oliver to the vfl

    seriously his metres gained when 50s and down field decisions are included would be negative 

    furthermore where is the standard setting at the club

    to serve that up and have no consequences on his money

    sheet he should join me in the Victorian public service

    On the TV it looked like it, maybe the MCC had the majority of our supporters. On the AFL members side it did look like dominated by North supporters.

    Agree. They’re terrified of dropping him too, apart from the fact there’s nobody to come in. Imagine the noise if we sent him back to Casey

    Umpires are a bloody disgrace, just abysmal 

    Free kicks were 24 to 27. Had nothing to do with how we capitulated in that last quarter. You can blame the coach and team trying to protect the lead. Pathetic

    Putrid and pathetic. I can barely handle losing but when the umps interfere like they do, I go off my dial.

    Incoming 90 points loos against Brisbane. 

    I wish there was some hope for the team but not really, I will still torture myself and watch the game because I will sink with this ship.

    Hoping for a brighter future in the next couple of years, still have some very good talents in our list.

    May was a match winner. Larkey is a star and was invisible.  Most important player in the team . Rising 33 and he is irreplaceable. Champion.

    • 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.
