Always a little overwhelmed by people on this site who know so much more about footy than I do, but jeez it hurts listening to how the Doggies are going. I love the way they play - so free-flowing, attacking and confident. When will I be also to say that about our mob?

I hate the way we mostly play - if we do get the ball, our first reaction seems to be to stand there looking like a shag on a rock and then dish off a hospital hand pass.

Sorry Cards - didn't mean to steal your thunder - we said the same thing at about the same time.

I hope our guys are watching North v Bulldogs, they could learn something about tackling.

With Vanders, Kent and Brayshaw out have no idea who'll lay the tackles.

What a game, dogs v kangas. End to end stuff, plenty of hard contested ball as well. When the ball comes out both teams just go bang let's move it fwd.

God I love seeing those sookie c Scott twins whinge. GFY Scott.

If we our team had any doubt what 'playing like maniacs' looks like they only need to watch the Bulldogs today!

WB were challenged then fought back, challenged then fought back, challenged then ran away with it.

Awesome performance.

Great win.

Edit. And, they used their 8th debutante for the year, today!

wow what a turn around by the dogs. After there disastrous off season they have surprised everyone. Now they are playing finals. How exciting for there fans. Lets hope we get there soon. Funny that Ryan Griffen ends up on the bench today with a knee injury while his old team has a great win on there way to September.

I hope the Dons chit all over the tigs tonight, have a bunch of tig mates who are insufferable.

[censored] that. I'd love to see those drug cheats finish with 17 broken legs

How's the jumper clash in the glaring sun today you reckon?

Last four five to the Eagles...don't write them off just yet. Top spot (and the chance to avoid Hawthorn in the first final) beckons.

However, I love that this year the bottom half of the top 8 are going to be in ripping form in the finals. In fact, right now I'd probably put Adelaide, the Dogs, Richmond and North ahead of Sydney and Fremantle.

It should be an entertaining finals series.

Crows absolutely embarrassing the Eagles today, 50 point lead in the third quarter.

If the Eagles drop next week's game to the Saints, Hawthorn will almost definitely get a home final.

    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

    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.
