Mmm, everyone notice how good the hi-def video slow mos are in the Olympics.

The tech is available but nope.

Put a fork in us!

80 Point thrashing coming up


Oliver to be managed or Casey.

His disposal work is terrible and decision making even worse.

We genuinely should be 50 points down.

 

How the [censored] are they walking thru every tackle? Are we made of paper?

What's happened to our tackling over the last month or two? It feels as though opposition players break out of them way too easily.

We are reacting.

So many tackles where we are moving towards a dog's player.

Easy to step around or shake.

And not low enough...easy to shrug.

Our tackles tonight have been so bloody soft it's embarrassing.

Deplorable


Clarry doesn’t want to be out there. Missed tackles, overrunning the football, just getting rid of it at all costs. He’s a liability. Would’ve much rathered seen Kynan Brown get a gig. Desperate for tackles that stick atm

So much dumb footy, after the slow play finally worked we went back to max speed stuff.

We’ve got a young backline and a midfield that can’t run. Slow down and play some tempo.

Yeah unlike us.  

Oliver a shadow of himself. Sad to see, end of the season can't come soon enough for him.

I hope Binman can finally stop the delusion and accept this season is a bust.

Looking forward to March 2025.


Goody needs to put a [censored] big rocket up em at the huddle. I want the towels rushed out after to wipe the spray off. I can forgive some play but this is not good enough.
No wonder [censored] all rocked up last week. 

 

Chandler overated.

Kozzie overpaid.

 

It’s like we don’t want to get suspended from tackling them. 
Just get in there FFS

  • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

    The media has performed a complete reversal in its coverage of the Melbourne Football Club over the past month and a half. Having endured intense criticism from all quarters in the press, which continually identified new avenues for scrutiny of every aspect, both on and off the field, and prematurely speculated about the departures of coaches, players, officials, and various employees from a club that lost its first five matches and appeared out of finals contention, the narrative has suddenly shifted to one of unbridled optimism.  The Demons have won five of their last six matches, positioning themselves just one game (and a considerable amount of percentage) outside the top eight at the halfway mark of the season. They still trail the primary contenders and remain far from assured of a finals berth.

  • REPORT: Sydney

    A few weeks ago, I visited a fellow Melbourne Football Club supporter in hospital, and our conversation inevitably shifted from his health diagnosis to the well-being of our football team. Like him, Melbourne had faced challenges in recent months, but an intervention - in his case, surgery, and in the team's case, a change in game style - had brought about much improvement.  The team's professionals had altered its game style from a pedestrian and slow-moving approach, which yielded an average of merely 60 points for five winless games, to a faster and more direct style. This shift led to three consecutive wins and a strong competitive effort in the fourth game, albeit with a tired finish against Hawthorn, a strong premiership contender.  As we discussed our team's recent health improvement, I shared my observations on the changes within the team, including the refreshed style, the introduction of new young talent, such as rising stars Caleb Windsor, Harvey Langford, and Xavier Lindsay, and the rebranding of Kozzy Pickett from a small forward to a midfield machine who can still get among the goals. I also highlighted the dominance of captain Max Gawn in the ruck and the resurgence in form in a big way of midfield superstars Christian Petracca and Clayton Oliver.

  • POSTGAME: Sydney

    The Demons controlled the contest from the outset, though inaccurate kicking kept the Swans in the game until half time. But after the break, Melbourne put on the jets and blew Sydney away and the demolition job was complete.

  • CASEY: Northern Bullants

    The Casey Demons travelled to a windy Cramer Street, Preston yesterday and blew the Northern Bullants off the ground for three quarters before shutting up shop in the final term, coasting to a much-needed 71-point victory after leading by almost 15 goals at one stage. It was a pleasing performance that revived the Demons’ prospects for the 2025 season but, at the same time, very little can be taken from the game because of the weak opposition. These days, the Bullants are little more than road kill. The once proud club, situated behind the Preston Market in a now culturally diverse area, is currently facing significant financial and on-field challenges, having failed to secure a win to date in 2025.
