For anyone watching at home, which going by the crowd was most of you, was JVR a tactical or injury sub?

    Really hoping that Clarry and Viney put on ice. Jack was enormous early but faded. I suspect both require surgery so do it now. I'd add Max to that list but not happening.

    Another who was perhaps unwell, or was suffering the effects of? He certainly looked pretty rough on the bench.

    Yes that’s very possible. He looked stuffed trying to get to the bench. 


    CLARRY DEFINATELY UNDER THE WEATHER IS MY INTEL, Plus a few others as well!

    Lose to GC and beat Collingwood and you've got a deal.

    From what Goodwin said last night after the game, it sounds like he isn't going to put away any players. 

    Against Collingwood I'd put any of our top players away cause who knows what they'll do

    Giving games to the youngsters has to be the go. It's what end of season dead rubbers are for.

    We are already playing plenty of youngsters. Throwing them to the wolves without the protection of senior players is not the way to end the season. Hoping for no more injuries so those still standing can hit preseason with intent. 
    that said, if moniz is good to go, would like his speed back in. Good to see Howes and hore back in, but hoping MC picks whatever side matches up best to win rather than experiment.
    Or throw fritta to halfback to see which media needs to lay the boots in, for funsies.

    Remarkable result given that, which is what many of us suspected.

    Jeffersen for Melks

    Yeah Melk could be on the chopping block for team selections this week. 

    3 disposals against the doggies previous week and was pretty ineffective as a sub.

    We need to bring in Ray Biffin and Rod Grinter to play on Moore and Maynard.

    Roy did actually take a one-grab mark close to the boundary line.

    • 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.

    • GAMEDAY: Sydney

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons have a golden opportunity to build on last week’s stirring win by toppling Sydney at the MCG. A victory today would keep them firmly in the hunt for a finals spot and help them stay in touch with the pack chasing a place in the Top 8. Can the Dees make it two in a row and bring down the Swans?
