:o Could we lose it from here? - Roughead first goal, Williams a shot at goal, and Morton kicks a goal.

im worried too...


If we win or not, I want someone new to step up e.g Grimes, Frawley or Martin.

i totally agree

HEARTBROKEN !!!

 

We are a [censored] joke. Absolute joke.

Also, [censored] you Bartram.

Unbelievable. Actually, no, typical.

I love barracking for Melbourne :unsure:

That Grimes smother was awesome though, and Cheney and Spencer showed a lot. In the end, it was our poor kicking in front of goal and our midfield (which is seriously terrible, aside from McLean) that lost us the match.

Oh, and Newton is an absolute joke of a footballer, and I sincerely hope to never ever see him in a Melbourne jumper again.


How did that just happen. Just lacked the polish and quality in the end.

Looking at the positives Frawley was superb. Bail looked good and Grimes had a fine last quatar under pressure.

The likes of Sylvia & Newton really need to step it up. Both lacked impact in a big way.

That was a friggen terrible game, even when we were in front it was becaue the Hawks weren't trying.

We have too many players with poor skills, ie Frawley, Bell, Bartram, PJ, Dunn, Newton...bah, makes me mad just thinking about it.

If we continue like this pencil us in for last


Why do I put myself through this? Why do I care about the MFC???

Oh well, we're off to the sticks! Who's gonna guess the first serious knee injury on a concrete oval??

I think we're at Princes Park next Saturday.

Wow how did we lose that :unsure:

Didn't we have 8 weeks more preseason than them.

Pathetic last quarter - and that was the only quarter of football that was anything like what Melbourne will experience this year.

In the first three quarters, I would have looked good out there. The opposition wasn't trying.

What we can take out of the game is that Newton's time is up. He will not be at the club next year.

Sylvia was exceptionally disappointing.

Miller still does not have good enough football brains.

Did we really expect any other result? lol I mean, Melbourne 30 points up at 3 quarter time is hardly in the bag.

Its only the NAB cup. Surely an expected result before the game started.

that was shithouse 1MIN to go and they cant keep possesion, i about to throw a brick thru the TV.

I think we need to look at this game in a constructive way - first game at Launceston and none of our draft picks from last year except for Bail. Lots of room for improvement - Watts in the Forward line :wub:

I disagree, we should have won the game

The tradition of the mentally weak MFC continues.

  • PREVIEW: Carlton

    Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.

  • REPORT: North Melbourne

    I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

  • CASEY: Werribee

    The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

  • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

    The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
