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:

    • CASEY: Geelong

      There was a time in the second quarter of the game at the Cattery on Friday afternoon when the Casey Demons threatened to take the game apart against the Cats. The Demons had been well on top early but were struggling to convert their ascendancy over the ground until Tom Fullarton’s burst of three goals in the space of eight minutes on the way to a five goal haul and his best game for the club since arriving from Brisbane at the end of 2023. He was leading, marking and otherwise giving his opponents a merry dance as Casey grabbed a three goal lead in the blink of an eye. Fullarton has now kicked ten goals in Casey’s three matches and, with Melbourne’s forward conversion woes, he is definitely in with a chance to get his first game with the club in next week’s Gather Round in Adelaide. Despite the tall forward’s efforts - he finished with 19 disposals and eight marks and had four hit outs as back up to Will Verrall in the second half - it wasn’t enough as Geelong reigned in the lead through persistent attacks and eventually clawed their way to the lead early in the last and held it till they achieved the end aim of victory.

    • REPORT: Geelong

      I was disappointed to hear Goody say at his post match presser after the team’s 39 point defeat against Geelong that "we're getting high quality entry, just poor execution" because Melbourne’s problems extend far beyond that after its 0 - 4 start to the 2025 football season. There are clearly problems with poor execution, some of which were evident well before the current season and were in play when the Demons met the Cats in early May last year and beat them in a near top-of-the-table clash that saw both sides sitting comfortably in the top four after round eight. Since that game, the Demons’ performances have been positively Third World with only five wins in 19 games with a no longer majestic midfield and a dysfunctional forward line that has become too easy for opposing coaches to counter. This is an area of their game that is currently being played out as if they were all completely panic-stricken.

    • PREGAME: Essendon

      Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

    • NON-MFC: Round 04

      Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?
