May and Lever got some old creaky bones. We clicked into gear in that last couple minutes. Patience required.

    Don't you just love these MFC games where we hand the other team momentum, they pulverise us and then our star players forgot how to kick a goal from 15 metres out

    May and Lever are liabilities at the moment. They need to find form quick.

    Can we please stop selling games to Alice Springs?

    Maybe if our “fans” weren’t so fickle and didn’t drop off with their membership and attendance, we could afford to stop selling this game.

    We play this at the MCG and we are lucky to make a dime. This game is worth a million dollars.

    They all need a kick up the backside but boy does May need a bloody rev up.

    I'd be telling him Macca's coming for his spot if he doesn't get his head in the game.

    Tbf, Macca has been better than him all year.

    Turner forward. Petty back - on Keeler. May - bench.

    Can't afford to move Turner.

    This is what Goodwin and his bunch of clowns get for messing with a defence that wasn't broken. McDonald was our best defender and we dropped him for no reason. Lever in contrast is a disaster.

    Johnson is just a waste of space and his ruck work is inept. The sooner Van Rooyen returns, the better.

    EXACTLY..... DOUBLE AND TRIPLE DOWN ON THIS! Plus the in form forward JEFFO!

    I still think we find a way back into this.

    Usually yes. But We all know om how Ross coaches. Goals will be very hard to come by at the best of times.

    Expect a much improved performance starting NOW


    Not enough pressure on the Saints ball carriers. They're moving the ball too easily, leaving our defenders panicking

    • PREVIEW: West Coast

      It was bad enough that the Melbourne Football Club created yet another humiliating scenario inside its wretched season at Marvel Stadium last Sunday, but the final insult is that it has been commanded to return to the scene of the crime to inflict further punishment on its fans this week. Incidentally, if this match preview, of a game that promises to be one of the most unattractive fixtures in the history of the game, happens to cut out of your computer screen three quarters of the way through, it’s no coincidence. I’ll be mirroring the Demons’ lacklustre effort against St Kilda from last Sunday when they conceded the largest last quarter turnaround for victory in the history of the game.

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.

    • CASEY: Sandringham

      The Casey Demons rebounded from a sluggish start to manufacture a decisive win against Sandringham in the final showdown, culminating a quarter century of intense rivalry between the fluctuating alignments of teams affiliated with AFL clubs Melbourne and St Kilda, as the Saints and the Zebras prepare to forge independent paths in 2026. After conceding three of the first four goals of the match, the Demons went on a goal kicking rampage instigated by the winning ruck combination of Tom Campbell with 26 hitouts, 26 disposals and 13 clearances and his apprentice Will Verrall who contributed 20 hitouts. This gave first use of the ball to the likes of Jack Billings, Bayley Laurie, Riley Bonner and Koltyn Tholstrup who was impressive early. By the first break they had added seven goals and took a strong grip on the game. The Demons were well served up forward early by Mitch Hardie and, as the game progressed, Harry Sharp proved a menace with a five goal performance. Emerging young forwards Matthew Jefferson and Luker Kentfield kicked two each but the former let himself down with some poor kicking for goal.
      Young draft talent Will Duursma showed the depth of his talent and looks well out of reach for Melbourne this year. Kalani White was used sparingly and had a brief but uneventful stint in the ruck.

      The Demons return to the scene of the crime on Saturday to face the wooden spooners the Eagles at the Docklands. Who comes in and who goes out? Like moving deck chairs on the Titanic.
