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

I feel sick.

    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.

    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.

    • PREVIEW: Gold Coast

      Melbourne’s slow starts have been a troubling theme for a while. Against the Suns, they started slowly in both of their games, they trailed by 5.7.37 to 0.1.1 at quarter time at Peoples First Stadium in Round 16. This season, the story has remained the same and if the Demons fail to shake off this issue against the unbeaten Gold Coast Suns, they will be in serious danger of capitulating once again in their Easter Sunday showdown.

    • PREGAME: Gold Coast

      The Demons are back at the MCG for the second week in a row. They face the Suns off a 15 day break without their prized recruit and former Demon champion Christian Petracca. This will be a massive test for the Demons who will be facing a genuine Premiership contender. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • REPORT: Carlton

      The text messages started flooding in shortly after quarter time. One read: “Is Melbourne even at the ground?” Moments later, as Carlton’s Elijah Hollands kicked the first goal of the second term, the Blues held a commanding 43-point lead. By then, the Demons’ only score was a behind kicked by Brody Mihocek nearly five minutes into the game. Ironically, Mihocek would also register the last minor score of the day after the game took a dramatic turnaround.
