I think BRUCE shows our improvement of youth. 2 years ago B & F this year getting a game on rep. Love the bloke but needs to re invent himself or its curtains.

Very impressed with 2nd qtr. Great pressure still no fwd structure. We improve that and keep the pressure and we can win.

Garland from 50!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!

YESSSSSSS

Watch out for the "put Garland forward" crowd now.

Disagree. I reckon he was among the only players to stand up in the 1st Q.

Very pleasantly surprised with trailing by only 1 point when it looked like a 10 + goal loss 5 mins in.

Garland's playing his best game since his return and how good was his 55 mtr goal.

If we lose I hope it's not by under a goal. Can't handle more heartbreak against the Filth.

You must of missed his 3 turnover in the first qtr, 2 of which were scum goals. I love the bloke, I just think he needs new tricks

Yeah, I don't want to sound like an apologist, but with the exception of Bartram, our defenders will all make mistakes... No-one EVER mentions it when Bruce does well. EVER.

Oops... I what I mean to say is that Bartram hasn't had mnay goals kicked on him. Frawley is kind of the same too. But with the role Bruce plays, and the sheer amount of ball he gets he WILL have 6 or so bad touches. The fans will dwell on them exclusively, and ignore the good touches because they don't support their lame argument.

I hate to say it, but today would be a PERFECT day for Watts to stand up and kick 2-3 goals to give us the win. Our forward line is just a pure and utter shambles atm.

Posted

Actually, no more a shambles than Collingwood's...

Posted

Absolute disgrace.

It is officially the worst rule in the game, all at the hards of the over-interrupting AFL.


Posted

Maxwell gone for the day. Daisy in the rooms with a shoulder.

Posted

We have been the better side for 2/3 of the game. Let's see if we can finish it in the 4th.

Posted

Yup.

This MFC squad doesn't like Dick.

:D

I sensed trouble as soon as Dick came in. I just hope he doesn't kick the winning goal, as he'll be known as the Queens Birthday King.

Proud of the boys to be hanging around at 3qtr time.

Posted

Another shocking decision with holding the ball.

Posted

Can someone please start putting scores up- i'm on a train to Manchester n i can't handle not knowing margins!

GO DEES!

    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

We'll break down the Match SIM against North Melbourne and wrap up the preseason with insights into training and our latest recruits.

    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
