Autopsy AFL 2025 Round 7 - Demons v Tigers Thurs April 24th 7:30pm AEST (MCG)

[MagpieExcalibur]

I don’t mind it as it gives me the Richmond line, but this is atrocious from Melbourne. Should be a 9-10 goal win but this quarter has been pathetic.

Will be interesting to see them play anyone but a flaky Freo away, and a bottom three team.

eh its junktime

 

[twiggy4PM]

Well they voted to merge a while ago, maybe they're just waiting for the right Tasmanian stadium to move into?

Tassie Demons.

The Van Diemen Demons has a nice alliterative sound to it.

 

[GOTHELIONS16]

Bailey …. who? Bailey Selfish

Would have to be the most selfish player in the game right now.

 

[Black Saab]

Well done for fighting that out Tigers. Not a great game, rubbish umpiring against, kicked the last 4. Great stuff.

 

[Black Saab]

That's not 15 in the backline but 15 in the forward line

That rule is trash.

 

[Stottzy]

Dees are still way off it.

 

[mrmonkey]

That rule is trash.

I've said this in other threads the umpires are clearly directed to try maximise scoring so 50/50 calls in the backline get paid play on because it's exciting, but a kick going into the forward line they're generally lenient on.

 

[THE_GUN]

well there are always a silver lining to everything

North go down to 17th - Pick #2 thank you North
Percentage went up 1.6%

I'd agree with that. But it just makes another rule farcical.

 

[krustyman]

max is saying melbourne are crap and not likely to play finals iany time soon.

 

[Black Saab]

Dees are still way off it.

Yeah they seem a world away from what they were. Gawn and Petracca are the difference but against teams that are going to be up there competing, Melbourne just don't have anything.

 

[Fitzey]

Tonight proved it, Max is still the best ruck in the league. I’m definitely biased but it’s truly incredible what he’s doing at his age.

 

[hutchy31]

eh its junktime

Melbourne’s percentage is in the 70s.

Put the hammer down and win by 10 goals ffs. They don’t play until next Saturday night, and there are 75k fans in the stadium.

That fourth quarter performance was pathetic imo.

 

[tropicaltiger]

is Bec Maddern on drugs??

that was one of the worst interviews I have ever heard
with two young demon players looking very awkward.....very cringy

 

[Mr Meow]

Yeah they seem a world away from what they were. Gawn and Petracca are the difference but against teams that are going to be up there competing, Melbourne just don't have anything.

They played 3 quarters in 2nd gear though, to be fair.

One quarter with the foot on the accelerator was all they needed tonight.

 

[Fitzey]

Dees are still way off it.

Will touch the Hawks up in two weeks, 4 in a row and the season will be going just nicely!

 

[Andyy]

Tonight proved it, Max is still the best ruck in the league. I’m definitely biased but it’s truly incredible what he’s doing at his age.

He's unbelievable man.

For someone to be so tall, athletic and coordinated is extraordinary.

At his age too. Fmd

 

[voorhees]

Gawn just killed the tiges once again (well played max)
some poor umpiring that totally favoured the dee's was again on show for all to see.
Richmond's kids again did well especially Dow who was great...kids just ran out of gas.

 

[Black Saab]

No they didn't.

Yes their third QTR was the difference but they aren't in good shape.

Nankervis will have nightmares about Nank until his old age. Always belts him.

 

[Mr Meow]

No they didn't.

Yes their third QTR was the difference but they aren't in good shape.

They absolutely did.

Third quarter ramped their pressure up, ran way harder and moved the ball with urgency.

With the game in the bag they then rested Gawn for half a quarter and cruised to let Richmond get some junk time goals.

Melbourne are not a good side but they didn't need to be tonight. Did enough without having to sweat.

AHAHAHAHA

Listen to you.

They won their second game. Their second.

Your moronic narrative doesn't change that.

Not sure why you need to revert to an emotional meltdown consisting of an emoji landslide and an insult.

They played AFL standard football for 1 quarter and cruised for the rest. I'm not saying they are good. But the junk time stuff meant literally nothing. Enjoy your evening.

Smart move by Melbourne to rest in the last quarter. Maybe some handshake agreement with Adem Yze

You pulling out all the typical, banal stops. You do this so often. You love the drive by stuff don't you?

You know what? If you tell yourself the Easter bunny did turn up at your house last weekend it's ok for you to believe that... but it doesn't make what you say objectively true just because you say it.
