The game

Featured Replies

alistair lynch is so the guy from blokesworld.

a bit astonished. it's just like it's not even the same team. this time last year, if neitz had half the half chances he's had today he'd have at least 4. when you're s-14 you're 3-14 and the rub of the green just doesn't go your way.

i just hope neita pulls something, would hate to watch us lose to the pies by 100 points in neita's 300th

 

New plan; instead of throwing my shoe at the TV, I will go to the game next week and throw my shoes at the Melbourne players to wake them up to the fact that their opponent is half-way down the ground.

What the hell is going on at this club? How can so many Sydney players be on their own, consistently, for 3 quarters.

Forget our kicking, marking, clearances etc etc... just man-up for the love of god. It's probably the easiest and first instruction you get when taking up the game at 3 years of age.

At least we're still going in hard at the contest, and Miller just snapped a goal around his body! :o

This is a joke.

The only thing I care about right now is what Nathan Carroll has done to his hair.

have to say they are putting in, l reckon Neitz might be finished he looks slow and is dropping his marks

I have to laugh at the media frenzy surrounding Carlton and their apparent "Tanking"

I am pretty sure the reason Riley isn't getting questioned is because the media can actually see how [censored] we are!!!

Barracking for Melbourne has never (in my life) been so embarrassing! :(

Juice is going to be a great FF at least! But unless we get some midfielders who can deliver to him, then he will want to be traded in a few years!

Just a question..... How many times does Brad Green kick around his body without looking?!!!??

 

LMAO!!!!

Dwayne Russell is actually Captain Obvious!!!

3:45 to go in the 4th Qtr

"The difference in the skill levels is apparent"

No $hit Sherlock!!!!!

This is a disgrace. It makes me angrier by the week.

Looking forward to R22 where I can cheer carlton to a well fought victory


is it wrong i just loudly celebrated the last 2 minutes?

Good last quarter by juice, good second half from chook on kirk i think it was about 12- 4 chooks way after kirk killed us early, miller was not bad in the last playing forward, holland got his 3rd and deserved it too,

nietz was out of sorts, he could not hold a mark today and why he passed from 50 min the third has me stuffed.

Jamar your career with melbourne is done.

Jamar and about 6 others

just got back from he game, live not far from ground...

well that was a terrible effort, No midfied, No man marking, No forwar pressure and absolutely no run anywhere on the ground.

i dont know how u go from being the best tackling team last year to the worst this year, but we ve done it...

some of the tackles were like girl slaps they just fell off so easily.

our skills are terrible, blokes like ward brown and buckley may need to be shown the drop punt cause a floater pass or a grubber makes it f@#kin hard to mark.

I ve defended miller upto now but i concede, he is nowhere need the standard required.

we are years off being anywhere near te top again.. id say 3-5years

major clear out, new coach and along road back....

Right now 'FOOTY SUX'

Just got back from the game...player analysis....it was a comedy from start to finish!!!!! Why bother!!!

Jones, Holland and Newton were really the only 3 I noticed!

Was that the master plan for our guys to lose weight so we can run all day and do the 'run and carry' style?

The funniest thing about this was that half the supporters could see what was happening from the very start of the season...

So sad but very true.

I I I I- We gotta face these obstacles and get back on the road, but not like the performance yesterday

  • PREVIEW: Richmond

    A few years ago, the Melbourne Football Club produced a documentary about the decade in which it rose from its dystopic purgatory of regular thrashings to the euphoria of a premiership victory. That entire period could have been compressed in a fast motion version of the 2025 season to date as the Demons went from embarrassing basket case to glorious winner in an unexpected victory over the Dockers last Saturday. They transformed in a single week from a team that put in a pedestrian effort of predictably kicking the ball long down the line into attack that made a very ordinary Bombers outfit look like worldbeaters into a slick, fast moving side with urgency and a willingness to handball and create play with shorter kicks and by changing angles to generate an element of chaos that yielded six goals in each of the opening quarters against Freo.

  • NON-MFC: Round 07

    Round 7 gets underway in iconic fashion with the traditional ANZAC Day blockbuster. The high-flying Magpies will be looking to solidify their spot atop the ladder, while the Bombers are desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top eight. Later that evening, Fremantle will be out to redeem themselves after a disappointing loss to the Demons, facing a hungry Adelaide side with eyes firmly set on breaking into the top four. Saturday serves up a triple-header of footy action. The Lions will be looking to consolidate their Top 2 spot as they head to Marvel Stadium to clash with the Saints. Over in Adelaide, Port Adelaide will be strong favourites at home against a struggling North Melbourne. The day wraps up with a fiery encounter in Canberra, where the Giants and Bulldogs renew their bitter rivalry. Sunday’s schedule kicks off with the Suns aiming to bounce back from their shock defeat to Richmond, taking on the out of form Swans.Then the Blues will be out to claim a major scalp when they battle the Cats at the MCG. The round finishes with a less-than-thrilling affair between Hawthorn and West Coast at Marvel. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?

  • REPORT: Fremantle

    For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

  • CASEY: UWS Giants

    The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

  • PREGAME: Richmond

    The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?
