Too far. We can’t take a [censored] trick. 

Haven’t seen a step count replay yet. Any other big club would’ve had replay after replay and the commentators saying “we don’t want that in our game”

    Has Windsor hit a target by foot or hand in the past 6 weeks? 

    He’s running on fumes, but there’s no one to come in for him.

    The umpire paid a free kick to Lowman because he feel heavily. 🤷‍♂️

    He called it for high contact. I hit rewind and watched it again. There was no head high contact. 100% paid for the reason you stated.

    Umpires are getting under my skin. You know what town you're in. Stevic you rat. Thirteen steps is too many?

    I know we've always been a low skill-level team, but damn this year it is so incredibly painful watching us try to move the ball up the field.  Every possession is a 50% chance of morphing into a turnover.

    Was that the one where the umpire took forever to blow this whistle, but the crowd were booing so he thought he better do something….

    i think the pressure just builds as the season goes on. i don't think he is running on fumes. he'll be better for the run.

    Rivers took 13 steps.

    After 4 howlers against us for goals last week now 6-1 frees and a goal taken off us AGAIN.

    When I think of Charlie Cameron I think of a motorbike revving then I think of John Denver then I think of a plane crashing into a mountain then I feel better.

    Good to see all of JVR, Turner and Petty clunk a mark or two early.

    Effort  and energy is good as are  the attempts to move the ball. I just need some composure and a touch of luck (Rivers robbed). Hopefully we dont drop our bundle and go again.

    At least we are playing like we give a s—t . But the end of the day one goal a quarter ain’t going to cut it. Umpires playing to home ground crowds makes me puke.

    As soon as you see umpire 22 on the field you just know the game is cooked

    I really feel that they paid the free kick to Lohman because everybody stopped and looked guilty. Looked like just a normal body spoil on the smaller player.

    Just re-watched the Rivers non goal 9 -10 steps max. Ridiculous 

    I counted roughly 15 but that's fair also.

    Nick would be allowed another 5 meters!

    It was also paid by the umpire 50 metres away, not the guy right there.

    1 free kick in a quarter of football, several missed.

    The numbers do not lie:

    • PREVIEW: Richmond

      A few years ago, the Melbourne Football Club produced a documentary about the decade in which it rose from its dystopic purgatory of regular thrashings to the euphoria of a premiership victory. That entire period could have been compressed in a fast motion version of the 2025 season to date as the Demons went from embarrassing basket case to glorious winner in an unexpected victory over the Dockers last Saturday. They transformed in a single week from a team that put in a pedestrian effort of predictably kicking the ball long down the line into attack that made a very ordinary Bombers outfit look like worldbeaters into a slick, fast moving side with urgency and a willingness to handball and create play with shorter kicks and by changing angles to generate an element of chaos that yielded six goals in each of the opening quarters against Freo.

    • NON-MFC: Round 07

      Round 7 gets underway in iconic fashion with the traditional ANZAC Day blockbuster. The high-flying Magpies will be looking to solidify their spot atop the ladder, while the Bombers are desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top eight. Later that evening, Fremantle will be out to redeem themselves after a disappointing loss to the Demons, facing a hungry Adelaide side with eyes firmly set on breaking into the top four. Saturday serves up a triple-header of footy action. The Lions will be looking to consolidate their Top 2 spot as they head to Marvel Stadium to clash with the Saints. Over in Adelaide, Port Adelaide will be strong favourites at home against a struggling North Melbourne. The day wraps up with a fiery encounter in Canberra, where the Giants and Bulldogs renew their bitter rivalry. Sunday’s schedule kicks off with the Suns aiming to bounce back from their shock defeat to Richmond, taking on the out of form Swans.Then the Blues will be out to claim a major scalp when they battle the Cats at the MCG. The round finishes with a less-than-thrilling affair between Hawthorn and West Coast at Marvel. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • REPORT: Fremantle

      For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

    • CASEY: UWS Giants

      The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

    • PREGAME: Richmond

      The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?
