Looks like we softened the dawks last week.

Watch them come home late, they only had a training run last week against us and they run out games better than any...

I''m so sick of the absolute fawning about Rioli. Yeah yeah, he's a really good player but so sick of that fat [censored] Taylor gushing about him. Even in the last minute when Rioli didn't take a handball near goals, Taylor was blaming the handball.

For me Mitchell was BOG. An absolute freak. I hate to say it, but Frawley was sensational. Rivers was good last night too. As if MFC can afford to lose those players!!

It was a really good match. Glad Hawthorn lost.

i think the Hawks played well below their best, and wouldn't be all that concerned by the loss,

Luke hodge would have made a difference

Well below their best.....the game was a ripper, came back from six goals down against the Swans. Missed a few missed set shots that's all. Rioli was cm's away from winning it.

"Only Cyril can do that!!!"...after taking a pretty regulation mark one on one in the goal square, and played on and kicked the goal. See that happen in every bloody game.

Good player, but it was all a bit much.

and as I recall little or nothing was said at the time about his (certainly uncharacteristic) fumble in front of goal in the dying seconds.

swans were good but ultimately lucky

hawks had plenty of opportunities and blew them with bad (uncharacteristic) kicking for goal

still it shows that even hawthorn lose their composure if you apply enough pressure

maybe man-on-man football has a future as a game plan, especially against sides with more talent

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

We'll break down the Match SIM against North Melbourne and wrap up the preseason with insights into training and our latest recruits.

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo. The play start time was brought forward from the initial 11am bounce, due to the high temperatures forecast.  The match sim will consist of four 25-minute qu
