    Very proud of the effort so far. Viney just insane. Nobody takes Melbourne being attacked more personally than Jack!

    The boys are playing with passion, giving their all and are in front. What more can a supporter ask for?

    Seriously slow and lazy, has to decide over summer if he wants to be an afl player again. The concern is to get him fit he might have to risk doing the hammy again and then he’s stuffed. 

    Agree with all but one word - no way is Salo lazy

    Viney and Max playing very well. Turner and Petty also looking good up forward. 
     

    Nibbler and Rivers having games to forget. Rivers has picked up a few possessions but has butchered the ball. Both need to lift.

    you reckon he is out there not giving 100%?

    Wow. 

    I think he’s going at about 70% of what’s needed.

    Whether he’s lazy, unfit or or just doesn’t have any more capacity doesn’t really matter.


    The boys are having a dip. There's a win here if they can keep this up in the second half

    Captain Viney flying the flag today.

    Sending a message to all, he's staying and he'll fix our leadership group.

    Join him or leave.

    1 handball to half time?  

    Prior to the last round against the Power when he was very good, he played three poor games in a row. Today's he looks off as well.

     

    I have a secret that I must reveal:

    I love Jack Viney ❤️

    Yeah we’re making some mistakes but I am actually really enjoying how we are playing today. Max and JV have been fantastic, Turner and Petty pretty good and I think Howes has also been pretty good. 

    It would be fantastic to pull away in the 3rd Quarter 

    After Halftime has been a slogfest this Season

    well as you have no [censored] idea how about you don’t call him lazy , not trying, lacking leadership?

    Viney sent a big msg flexing the guns after his set shot. He ain’t [censored] leaving Angry Leonardo Dicaprio GIF

    The show goes on!

    It’s either a coincidence or he’s doing too much, surround by new players, out of position. He’s having a dip. Anyone suggesting otherwise is mental 

    Stop giving him the benefit of the doubt. By playing him we risk injuring him anyway & there goes any trade value. Imagine if he does an ACL. Will get nothing for him. We’ve known for a whole month. Would much rather get games into Kynan Brown.

    While Missing Trac Clarry and May, 3 of our best 5 players. 
    But no doubt supporters will still complain because nothing bring Melbourne fans more joy than complaining.

    See sawing affair. GC have missed some easy shots but we've looked more dangerous inside 50.

    Turner having a great game in the forward line. Viney ferocious. 

    Pickett needs to get involved if we're going to hold on.

    So just sit our fittest player on the sideline when half our team doesn’t run? It’s stupid. Any of the 23 out there could get injured and impact our plans for next year and their summer. You have to play someone so it may as well be one of our better players, regardless of his plans for next year.

    Kynan Brown is a battling skinny kid who does not need afl games yet. If he name was Kynan Smith he probably wouldn’t be on an afl list and/or no one would care that he’s in the VFL.

    • REPORT: West Coast

      On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.

    • GAMEDAY: West Coast

      It's Game Day and the Demons have a chance to notch up their third consecutive win — something they haven’t done since Round 5, 2024. But to do it, they’ll need to exorcise the Demons of last year’s disastrous trip out West. Can the Dees continue their momentum, right the wrongs of that fateful clash, and take another step up the ladder on the road to redemption?
