That surface is ridiculously poor. Great match but that ground area is a disgrace.

Players slipping and falling over in that forward 50. It’s going to cause a bad knee injury soon !!!

 

Logan Morris and now Joel Freijah

Every week we’re being reminded of the second round picks we traded to move up and grab Tholstrup in 2023 😭

(still love you Kolt)

don’t forget about the dozen of 2nd round picks that are average players or barely play an AFL game

We obviously don’t rate the odds of the second round in the draft. Whether a it’s bringing in Langdon or Hibberd or trading up for Kozzi or Kolt, overall we have more wins than losses (eg McAdam)

Sydney win by 4 goals if they kick remotely straight.

Dogs dodged a bullet

I agree it’s clear we don’t rate it but I reckon that’s been a problem the past few years and has left our depth exposed

I reckon we had/have multiple areas of need that should have been identified and tried to be fixed with more picks from the draft, rather than moving up marginally or trading for NQRs like Billings, McAdam etc (I mean when was the last time we bought in a Hibberd or Langdon?)


Jeez the Bont is all class. Fav non Melbourne player. Unbelievable talent and humble as.

Reckon it’s just me but I don’t mind Papley. Gets in people’s faces and they fall for it. Love his energy and wish we had him

Yeah. Sorry Dub. It might just be you.😀

From a show of hands, most people I know just want to beat the little [censored] with a stick.

Probably like most “agitators” in other teams, to be fair. They are great when they are playing in your team, otherwise not so much.

What annoys me most about Papley is he was a Casey development player and we let him slip

Anyone seeing him play underage footy at Bunyip could see he was going to make the big time

Plus Grandson of a legend

If the players association had any balls, they would at least stir the pot and try to get the matches moved due to the unsafe surface.

well, clearly not seeing as he went so late in the rookie draft!

he's a big time player that's for sure

Gee it must be exciting for dogs fans each week to go along to watch the bont, Darcy & freija play

We can watch the ‘21 GF, whilst their hearts are breaking…


 

Umpires nice to let Nick Daicos know to get out of the 5 m exclusion zone as he ran right though it.

  • PREVIEW: North Melbourne

    Can you believe it? After a long period of years over which Melbourne has dominated in matches against North Melbourne, the Demons are looking down the barrel at two defeats at the hands of the Kangaroos in the same season. And if that eventuates, it will come hot on the heels of an identical result against the Gold Coast Suns. How have the might fallen? There is a slight difference in that North Melbourne are not yet in the same place as Gold Coast. Like Melbourne, they are currently situated in the lower half of the ladder and though they did achieve a significant upset when the teams met earlier in the season, their subsequent form has been equally unimpressive and inconsistent.

  • REPORT: Adelaide

    The atmosphere at the Melbourne Football Club at the beginning of the season was aspirational following an injury-plagued year in 2024. Coach Simon Goodwin had lofty expectations with the return of key players, the anticipated improvement from a maturing group with a few years of experience under their belts, and some exceptional young talent also joining the ranks. All of that went by the wayside as the team failed to click into action early on. It rallied briefly with a new strategy but has fallen again with five more  consecutive defeats.

  • CASEY: Coburg

    The Casey Demons returned to their home ground which was once a graveyard for opposing teams but they managed to gift the four points on offer to Coburg with yet another of their trademark displays of inaccuracy in front of goals and some undisciplined football that earned the displeasure of the umpires late in the game. The home team was welcomed by a small crowd at Casey Fields and looked right at home as it dominated the first three quarters and led for all bar the last five minutes of the game. In the end, they came away with nothing, despite winning everywhere but on the scoreboard and the free kick count.

  • PREGAME: Rd 18 vs North Melbourne

    After four weeks on the road the Demons make their long awaited return to the MCG next Sunday to play in a classic late season dead rubber against the North Melbourne Kangaroos. Who comes in and who comes out?

  • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

    The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.
