No excuse this week for a decent go of it today. The teams well rested missing Sylvia and Mcdonald is significant

however I'll be disappointed if we don't win. Must win game for our development and to ensure we progress beyond the bottom 4.

Vince is at 80-90% he generally carves us up looking at a hard tag from Jones or Mckenzie to nullify him.

Up against St Kilda at Ethiad next week which we are notoriously bad at playing at and Riewoldt looks to be back next week.

So MFC must win this week to set up a productive 2nd half of season.

Oh God please win.

I can't stand 5AA commentary, I can't stand Adelaide and their boring team, I just want to finally win there FFS.

5AA are awful. 'Matthew Warnock was going to be a ruckman before he went back'.

WTF?

SEN are covering it as well... They're not too bad usually, although they do have Radar and the man who missed his call as an Italian soccer player Matty Lloyd on I think...

really need to start well.. absolutly no crowd at the ground, bandwagon is off over in adelaide

wouldnt mind watts doing some nice things, especially if he is lined up on davis/jaensch

a win would take us to 10th and only 6 points out of the 8 with a decent run home.. BIG GAME with a BIG START

cmon boys!!

Anyone else listening to SEN? Any chance they're gonna stop talking about Collingwood and Geelong and focus on the game that starts in 15 minutes?!

Ha.. The 5aa guy just claimed todays call will be 'absolutely fair and unbiased!'

They must read here at Demonland..

Go D's

EDIT:

for those who dont like 5aa, go to the afl website, click the matchday centre tab and when that loads, click the live radio tab..

and listen to 3aw / mmm!

anyone watching the game? have adelaide's shots on goal been under pressure or have we been lucky? not a great start despite all our "talk" about starting well...

Tippet has missed one 20 out in front and they should have had another couple. Just kicked their second

clear free kick to bater for a hold missed.

jones gets caught holding the ball after he handballs the ball

It's not our day

That's the worst goal of the year

    CROSSROADS by The Oracle

    Melbourne stands at the crossroads.  Sunday’s game against the West Coast Eagles who have not met the Demons at the MCG in more than ten years, is a make or break for the club’s finals aspirations.  That proposition is self-evident since every other team the club will be opposed to over the next eight weeks of footy is a prospective 2024 finalist. To add to this perspective is the fact that while the Demons are now in twelfth position on the AFL table, they are only a game and a half b

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well

    POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Brisbane

    The Demons once again went goalless in the last quarter and were run down by the Lions at the Gabba in the final minutes of the match ultimately losing the game by 5 points as their percentage dips below 100 for the first time since 2020.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 16 vs Brisbane

    It's Game Day and the Dees are deep in the heart of enemy territory as they take on the Lions in Brisbane under the Friday Night Lights at the Gabba. Will the Demon finally be awakened and the season get back on track or will they meekly be sacrificed like lambs to the slaughter?

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi
