No announcement who it is yet, according to family's wishes. But saying a Melbourne legend of the 70s.

I feel sick.

 

im worried its Robbie Flower

Sen reporting MFC legend has passed away. They have not said who it is as there waiting for family to find out.

 

A star from the 70-80's I heard

Maybe a Hall of Famer


Some speculation on Bigfooty that it may be Robbie Flower. Please not be.

 

a legend of the 70s and 80s

Just tonight was told and with 3 aw announcing passing of legend it is my all time legend

Our past players have not enjoyed a good run in recent times

Unfortunately some incredibly sad news tonight guys, with the death of the great Robbie Flower. Robbie had dramas with his heart recently and was placed into a coma a couple of days ago only to lose his battle this afternoon. Was the reason I started following this great club. Farewell to the great man


If the information is correct, it can only be the great man.

Hoping it is a mistake.

Am close friends with Robbies nephew and received a call about an hour ago. It's a huge shock to the family at the moment as you would expect.

RIP great man.

Loved the way he played.

Was and will always be a true champion

What a horrible day for the MFC

I don't choose to believe this


devastated, my childhood hero

Great player , very sad day for the family.

wow. So sad.

R.I.P Robbie Flower.

Although i was too young to ever have the honour of seeing you play, your passion for the game, ability to play it and uncompromising love for the MFC is the stuff of legend. You'll live forever in the hearts, souls and words of the MFC faithful.

  • AFLW REPORT: Port Adelaide

    Well, that was a shock. The Demons 4-game unbeaten run came to a grinding halt in a tense, scrappy affair at the sunny, windy Alberton Oval, with the Power holding on for a 2-point win. The Dees had their chances—plenty of them—but couldn't convert when it mattered most. Port’s tackling pressure rattled the Dees, triggering a fumble frenzy and surprising lack of composure from seasoned players.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

    The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

  • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

    A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

  • CASEY: Frankston

    The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

    Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.
