The Last Time They Met

This was a night of pain in early July for the Melbourne Football Club which was thrashed in a must win game. It was an ominous sign for the future that came to well and truly haunt the club later that month.

One of the worst games I have been to in recent times. Was the 1st game after Sean Wight's passing, and the players gave very little. Was an emotional time for my family (personal reasons), and then had the passing of Sean who was my favourite player growing up and beame a fairly good friend during his footy career, then to see that dismal performance.

I sincerely hope that the players that run out on Sunday just don't embarrass themselves and the Club. Stynes' legacy is being celebrated before this game, and the greater AFL community will be hoping we can get over the line. This will hopefully be the last time we can go to that "emotional well" looking for inspiration, so after Sunday, it's going to be a very long year.

It's sad that we are coming up against a team that is 0-3, and I'm praying that we will be at least competitive.

Interesting 8 of that team of 22 will not be there on sunday

and a couple of others are very doubtful.

As hard as I try I cannot see the result being much different

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Geelong

    It’s been a season of grit, growth, and glimpses of brilliance—mixed with a few tough interstate lessons. Now, with finals looming, the Dees head to Kardinia Park for one last tune-up before the real stuff begins.

  • DRAFT: The Next Generation

    It was not long after the announcement that Melbourne's former number 1 draft pick Tom Scully was departing the club following 31 games and two relatively unremarkable seasons to join expansion team, the Greater Western Giants, on a six-year contract worth about $6 million, that a parody song based on Adele's hit "Someone Like You" surfaced on social media. The artist expressed lament over Scully's departure in song, culminating in the promise, "Never mind, we'll find someone like you," although I suspect that the undertone of bitterness in this version exceeded that of the original.

  • AFLW REPORT: Brisbane

    A steamy Springfield evening set the stage for a blockbuster top-four clash between two AFLW heavyweights. Brisbane, the bookies’ favourites, hosted Melbourne at a heaving Brighton Homes Arena, with 5,022 fans packing in—the biggest crowd for a Melbourne game this season. It was the 11th meeting between these fierce rivals, with the Dees holding a narrow 6–4 edge. But while the Lions brought the chaos and roared loudest, the Demons aren’t done yet.
