Nothing beats a re-run of the malice in Alice.

    Well I tell you who wasn't at fault today, the list management and coaching team! No sir, no way they could be of any blame.

    Weren't we supposed to take every game like an elimination final? 

    We had been doing since the NM game, and suddenly we can't be bothered to try?

    5 more "finals" to come, but I doubt the hunger is really there.

    Well coached for the most part

    A massive Sparrow game

    Lever commanding in defence

    The first half was an absolute embarrassment 

    The coaches and players should hang their heads in shame

    Our older players can get stuffed. Sick of people defending Oliver too… wish I was paid $1m plus performing (or shall I say giving an effort) like that at work

    Btw we lost 5% today, we lost like 8% in Alice.

    13% lost against one single opponent, one of the reasons we are in this current situation.

    On a positive note, we still have a higher percentage than Hawthorn. Winning!

    Totally unacceptable performance

    The youngsters and May get a pass. The rest were awful.

    And how did that work for us today, Simon?  Fullerton left out and we got destroyed in the ruck. Why draft the bloke if you aren’t going to play him?

    I don’t like it one little bit, but I can accept being out-played.  
    However, what I find completely unacceptable, is being totally out-worked.   
    I’m gutted!

    I’m sorry to those that rate him but Sparrow is just a nothing player

    We pretty much knew that Jacko and Biff were going to dominate in the air but our lack of intensity and spread from the contest was really disappointing. Leb and Knuckle were good I thought. The commentary team were gushing about Freo for much of the game but when it really matters they are as flakey as any side.

    • REPORT: Adelaide

      The atmosphere at the Melbourne Football Club at the beginning of the season was aspirational following an injury-plagued year in 2024. Coach Simon Goodwin had lofty expectations with the return of key players, the anticipated improvement from a maturing group with a few years of experience under their belts, and some exceptional young talent also joining the ranks. All of that went by the wayside as the team failed to click into action early on. It rallied briefly with a new strategy but has fallen again with five more  consecutive defeats.

    • CASEY: Coburg

      The Casey Demons returned to their home ground which was once a graveyard for opposing teams but they managed to gift the four points on offer to Coburg with yet another of their trademark displays of inaccuracy in front of goals and some undisciplined football that earned the displeasure of the umpires late in the game. The home team was welcomed by a small crowd at Casey Fields and looked right at home as it dominated the first three quarters and led for all bar the last five minutes of the game. In the end, they came away with nothing, despite winning everywhere but on the scoreboard and the free kick count.

    • PREGAME: Rd 18 vs North Melbourne

      After four weeks on the road the Demons make their long awaited return to the MCG next Sunday to play in a classic late season dead rubber against the North Melbourne Kangaroos. Who comes in and who comes out?

      The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.
