Goal to Hitchcock. This is over now IMO.

13.5.83

7.10.52

One of the rare games this year where our defence is being beaten in most match ups. No midfield pressure either.

Port goal, up by 31 points... I thought we had become a club that cares about things like milestones, important games etc but obviously the minds are already on post-season... How disappointed Junior must be in this horrible effort

Game ovahhhhhh.

cannot win a f%^ing contest on the ground

Haven't scored in the last 10 minutes, since Jurrah's MOTY. And probably only 1 or 2 inside 50s in that period. It's all Port. Gonna have to hope this is all the wind and we can come home strong but I can't see it happening.

Hardly hearing the names Green Moloney Jones Frawley ... What's going on ?

What a disgusting way to send off our captain in his 250th game.

We should be ashamed of our efforts. We've had such a good season and we're just throwing it all away with this effort. Truly pathetic, and we will never ever be any good until we learn to win interstate.

Listening to the game on the AFL site and it's the same old carp we serve up every time we go interstate and in particular to Adelaide. We are always going to be run of the mill until we can do better there. Port are a pretty ordinary side and they are making us look even worse. To be down by 37 points is pathetic.

Don't want to overreact and say a single game can ruin the impression of a season... but geeez it's close to doing that for me

No inside 50s, overusing the handpass due to being pressured by Port, defence is being beaten one-on-one which is Port's method of manning us up.

Jamar 3 disposals.

Bennell 5

Green 10.

Trengove 11.

Bartram 12

They're stopping us from zoning off and helping each other out by manning us up and spreading us.

Goal again to Schulz. Warnock's been killed.

15.5.95

7.10.52

Crap.

Only listening to the game, but my impression is we are being outcoached... anyone watching it? does it seem that way? Sounds like Primus has had answers for everything and Bailey has no ideas.

Yep, that's over-reacting.

This game is terrible, goes alongside West Coast and North Melbourne as our worst of the year. The margin could yet be our worst for the year. But we've made so many gains this year, to say one game late, with players out, with a young side, on the road, defines our year, is wrong.

Newton finally does something, but misses the goal.

    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.
