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.

    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.

      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.
