Get up boys, it's unlikely but who knows ... we need Hogan to kick a bag which is entirely possible, I'm excited to watch them after last week ... keeping in mind that after the way we played last week not to expect too much this week ... come on dees:-)

Start well play hard here we go , Vandas is a big loss will have to play Wattsy higher as a link man. Go dees.

I would love nothing more than to dump North out of the 8, but I'm yet to see this Melbourne side back up a decent performance, so who knows.

Brent Harvey is a champion and an ornament to the game.

400 games is really an astonishing feat.

and he is a credit to himself and his family.

I am hoping he manages to have his nose spread across his ugly face today.

Something I would very much like to see.

By the looks of him that's already happened a few times!

I'll be rocking up again today without too much confidence. Which usually translates into a win....

I do think our forwardline can stretch them, particularly with Firrito out, we just need to get it in there enough times!

The AFL were giving out free tickets for Mulitcutural Round. However they failed to notify that you needed to print them out by Thursday. Well done AFL

Looks like we aren't going after all

No changes, ANB sub. I know Chunk has been battling the flu this week, hopefully it doesn't affect him too much.

Need to move the ball quickly today. Holding it and inevitably bombing it down the line won't work - Petrie, Goldstein, Brown etc will have a field day picking off the high ball.

And for the love of god, can someone just flatten Harvey? Fairly, unfairly, I don't particularly care.

Already talking margins on the Norf bigfooty board.

God, if we are to win one game for the rest of the year, please let it be this one.

Jamar is out on the ground warming up and taking plenty of shots at goal. Late change?

Don't the team sheets with any changes get submitted 90 minutes before the game? We've been listed as no change with ANB as sub.

We need to move the ball quickly today if we are going to be a chance....if we stop and prop every time we get the ball today we will be in trouble, let's make it easier on the forwards by getting the ball in their quickly and fluently...

Changes seem OK if someone is injured in warmup

    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

    Demonland Trackwatcher Gator ventured down the freeway to bring you his observations from Friday morning's Match Simulation out at Casey Fields. Rehab: Jake Lever and Charlie Spargo running laps.  Lever was running short distances at a fast click as well as having kick to kick with a trainer. He seems unimpeded. Christian Petracca, Kade Chandler, Shane McAdam and Tom Fullarton doing non-contact kicking and handball drills on the adjacent oval.  All moving freely at pace.  I didn’

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
