A lot to look forward to.

Recommended Posts

With the emergence of Tom McDonald, and the excellent form of Mitch Clarke and Jeremy Howe this year,next season should see some rapid improvement.

With the likes of Jurrah and Gawn returning from injury, and the addition of Jack Viney.

We also have 3 excellent picks to trade for another experienced body or some more good young talent.

Just have to continue to play with intensity and spirit for the remainder of this year, it looks pretty good, after all the doom and gloom earlier on this year.

Keep it up boys!

The MFC has made me become a realist. I only believe what I see when I see it. Don't get me wrong I like what I see from a fair few lads but as I said I'll truly believe when I see.

HG I think this is the reality bit

Agree with you 100%. Earlier this year I was really shaking my head, wondering what was going on but I think we have turned the corner. Our games aren't perfect and we still aren't doing any where near enough to beat most teams, let alone the good ones, but I've seen glimpses and I think we will get there. Mark Neeld is the man and I have full faith in him to take us ahead, albeit one step at a time. After going to one of the forums the club is running (and cudos to them for doing that) I was so impressed with what he had to say and what he is doing. I feel like we are finally on the right track and its exciting, but still a bit frustrating!! Good times to come Dees fans!!

How sweet would it be to do the Lions on the weekend. This place is going to go off. We are about where I was hoping we'd be before the season started. I hoped to see evidence of a game plan on the field some of the players improving and I thought 1 to 2 wins by the end of round 1a, plus a solid win over GWS. I'm seeing all that now although I it wasn't looking too good after the Swans game. This weekend will say a lot about the rest of the season but I'm expecting to see the team improve considerably as they get on top of the game plan and start to be freed up to play more creative footy. I hope to see Blease, Strauss and Tappy as permanent fixtures for the rest of the season. Perhaps a few games later from Cook where he kicks a few bags full.

Is this against the same Brisbane team that beat WCE at the Gabba a fortnight ago? The same team that pumped the Doggies at Etibad?

Yes it would be sweet, but rather unlikely.

    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

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last
