Tmac just looks so sketchy with ball nowadays

Nowadays? I'm still haunted by his first 100 games in defence.

Turner looks like he will be a terrific third tall. Mobile, good defensive pressure, bit of nasty in him. We just really need someone else to step up.

Sparrow just do a syndesmosis? 

Does look like it. Hopefully not. 

I feel like our gameplan of trying to lock it into our forward half just leads to turn over pain like constantly against Freo.

 

Squirmy Dermott irks me more than Brian Taylor.  He is the most self infatuated tool I’ve come across 

Jack Viney looks so checked out… 🙄😂😁

What a magnificent man.

The morons on TV seem to think he has already gone. 🙄


After the first ten minutes I think our effort has been pretty good. Hope they can keep it up. 

Good follow up by Fritsch but should have swallowed that with two hands. Pure showboating.

27 degrees today, Ed Langdon is gonna get sunburn on his tongue

I can count on one hand the number of games where our effort this year has been unacceptable. 
It has been the execution that’s been letting us down mostly. 

There are five kids at Casey who should be playing over Kolt. Doing neither him nor us a favour by playing him now.

Sparrow subbed

This season keeps on giving. 
I hope he will be ok and it’s nothing too serious.

Boy that is the worst post this year

 

With every word you know Brereton thinks he’d be doing it better than the modern players. And he hates MFC

I love Nibbler but this is his worst game for some time. A couple of times he has shirked contact and looked very sheepish.

  • 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.
