Don't care who it is. I just want this season over, with Draft Picks Thankyou.

Don't care as long it's a home game in the social club. I want draft picks!

Doesn't matter...

But if I could dream, our 4th win of the year would be a round 22 victory over St Kilda against all odds. And after losing to Richmond, Nth, Freo and Carlton in the lead-up, i'll have the fortunate foresight to put $1000 on the Dee's at the very healthy odds of $15 to beat the Saints, who'd be 21-0 at that stage.. Not gonna happen :(

Most likely to beat Freo, but to be honest i really couldn't care less, as long as it's not 5 wins...

I would gladly lose the Freo game if it means we beat Rapetank and destroy their finals hopes.

It's tipped as being Fremantle, however I would hope for all our sake that it would be round 22 against the Saints so we can feel relief before a game and play to win knowing we have secured two early picks.

A draw in each of the final two rounds.

But seriously, it's gotta be the Saints. I can't wait until this season is over to barrack for my team again, but I'd love it if we were on 3 wins and were actually able to have a sneak preview of what it's like to barrack for your team again, if only for one week. Plus, it's one thing to snatch one by a couple of goals against a club who has nothing to play for. It's another entirely to ruin the Saints perfect season, and beat the best team in the league to make people raise their eyebrows.

And as a side note, in that scenario if Freo beat us and no-one else, they'll be on 4 wins too. Which would mean that we might be fighting our way off the bottom of the ladder if our percentage was good enough. 15th, no wooden spoon and picks 1 and 3. Scully and Trengrove with a WC midfielder staying at home to play for Freo.

I would like to beat Carlton - but if we win another game it will most likely be Freo

Much as I'd like to thrash Carlton, I think I'd prefer to not win any of the remaining games and get the best possible picks. It would ensure us bottom spot, putting us ahead of Freo and should WC somehow slip up and win another one it would guarantee us the top two picks. Winning is simply not worth it at this point.

That's the first time i have seen that written in all these last few weeks.

Would really stuff up Worsfolds plans if we got home winless from here.

Good post. Bigus

Has to be North hands down.

We've been their [censored] for years, and we need to learn how to win at Etihad if we're going to rise up the ladder.

Freo would be the least exciting and satisfying win.

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo. The play start time was brought forward from the initial 11am bounce, due to the high temperatures forecast.  The match sim will consist of four 25-minute qu
