    Anyone think Windsor has Butters-like potential? Didn’t play the greatest game today but I’ve seen many flashes

    His disposal is an issue. I’m a big fan but he must improve this aspect of his game

    That last center bounce sums up my frustration.

    Best ruck in a generation, supposedly

    But he hits it to space and no Melbourne player in sight.

    Be nice to know how so many times max gets hit out, but goes to opposition ???

    One of the best games of the season, a lot to like, but we can’t be happy either. Would love an analysis on our close games from 2024-2025, I feel like we never win them. Never.

    I really enjoyed Fritsch, Melksham, Langford and others kicking snags and reviving the crowd up, was really fun to this game without too much pressure on the result.

    We had a crack. We tried some things that helps us look different. I liked the midfield mix early, and Bowey forward in the last.

    If I was a Dogs fan I’d be concerned. They need to kick 120 points to guarantee a win. No disrespect to our forward line but putting almost 100 points on them says more about how they defend than anything about us.

    COME ON GWS/FREMANTLE!

    At the ground, carrying on from dogs fans is embarrassing. Smug, arrogant and all round unbearable.

    Very agricultural from bulldogs fans today, wouldn’t be so arrogant considering they are perennial down hill skiers who only beat up on teams below them.

    Looks like they played their grand final today. They’re pretty rubbish so won’t expect them to even make the 8 let alone contend.

    Agree, love Windsor, but his kicking today was below par. He’ll get there.

    Langford and Culley are 2 monsters that can mark anything and play forward

    Exciting for the future

    These tight games are invaluable for our young guys

    Hamstring or cramp late ??

    I'm convinced that if we played Culley over an underdone Tholstrup earlier in the year we finish with 2-3 more wins.

    Neutrals probably enjoyed it as an exciting game. Me? I hate valiant narrow losses.

    Looks like he was trying to hit it to Viney. Terrible idea to be honest.

    2025 has been the year of dishonourable losses

    6 losses by 13 points or under now

    Not fit enough to run out games

    In 2022 and 2023, we also lost a lot of close games. Wonder what the overall stats would be, an area for growth for us.

    We kicked 4.0 in that last qtr, which is great considering most games we only managed anywhere from 0-2 goals, didn’t fade out as I feared we were going too.

    Thought we brought the pressure as the game went on.

    We may not turnover the ball more or less than other teams, but I feel like when we do, it’s a BAD turnover. Turnovers that cost us when we have momentum and gift them goals.

    For starters they play different positions, but they've been building Culley as a wing over the last 10 weeks or so, he's only come on enough recently.

    • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

    • PREGAME: Hawthorn

      The Demons return to the MCG this time as the visiting team where they get another opportunity to put a dent into a team's top 8 placing when they take on the Hawks on Saturday afternoon. Who comes in and who goes out?

      The Demons lacked some polish but showed a lot of heart and took it right up to the Bulldogs in an attempt to spoil their finals hopes ultimately going down by a goal at the MCG.
