We need to start turning the sprinklers on before the game and during quarter breaks at home games.

McVee is absurd in the wet.

Rivers... what an absolute gun.

Rivers has certainly stepped up and showing what a quality player he is... given the opportunity. I miss Trac but I'm glad to see Rivers displaying some great skills. Go you good thing.

    Why is McGrath’s head so big?!

    Because it's full of peptides and rocks.

    given that Trac returns Rivers is going to be a great addition to the midfield rotations.

    Umpiring is disgraceful but hey what’s new I guess. It is concerning that Melbourne players can continued to get tackled for a lengthy period of time without even being close to the ball. Holding the man non-existent.

    the commentary is an Essendon love fest which is making my ears bleed.

    rivers is an absolute gun, the man is playing out of his skin and it’s awesome to see.

    the boys are having a red hot crack and I’m loving the intensity, just pray they keep it going into the second half.

    FCS what were you expecting? He has put his hand up. 

    Undermanned in the ruck, Petty being towelled up apparently but guess what we are winning the clearances just. Got to wonder about dominant rucks. Their real value is marking, spoiling around the ground, forcing teams to go wide, rather than the number of hit outs. Which is code for me saying we should have kept Grundy 😀! 


    the question now is can we maintain or even increase that lead over the next 2 quarters. the boys have done well. Petty has to lift 5 disposals and given away 3 free kicks in the half when he on the ball a fair bit of the time is not great. certainly need sparrow to lift as well

    • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

      It seems like only yesterday that these two sides faced off against each other in the centre of the continent. It was when Melbourne was experiencing a rare period of success with five wins from its previous six matches including victories over both of last year’s grand finalists.  Well, it wasn’t yesterday but it was early last month and it remains etched clearly in the memory. The Saints were going through a slump and the predicted outcome of their encounter at TIO Traeger Park was a virtual no-brainer. A Melbourne victory and another step closer to a possible rise into finals contention. Something that was unthinkable after opening the season with five straight defeats.

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.
