We also settled above St. Kilda on the ladder too. Considering the amount of excessive praise they had in the back half of the season, this gives me some satisfaction.

We NEED salem to become a midfielder for 2016, he has speed, amazing skills and creativity, he personifies the type of player our midfield desperately needs.

unfortunately we need his kicking off half back also.

Good to see the Young kids leading the way today

Thanks Crossy. Hope you stay as a coach next year

Will be fascinated how the list is culled and refilled this summer.

He's the elite distributor we need off half back. Stretch et al need to develop in to our class outside mids.

Sorry, I know Harmes did well today however it's now ingrained in me to cringe at bad disposal and Harmes is a big culprit who often turns it over in our forward line. He is young and has time to work on it.

Good win today go dees

No problem. I think the site was just emulating the club's performances over the past month (today excepted of course :lol:)

Probably because no one was actually at the game and all on Demonland.

Positives: White, Harmes, Viney, Salem, Maxy ( how good will he be ? ) Jones.

Negatives: What's my excuse now for drinking too much scotch ? Respect umpires ????? Give us a reason to or shut up !!!!!

Where was that effort in the last month?

Thought we were actually pretty good by foot today, especially by the younger blokes.

Harmes looks to be a future star and showed some tricks I don't people expected. One bloke who seems to fly under the radar a bit is Stretch. Always looks very composed and creates space for himself. Really looking forward to what he's like after a preseason.

One bloke who I thought did well today was Michie. It's a shame he's only hitting his stride now, because I think he's started to develop nicely towards the end of the year. The same thing happened last year and he seemed drop off after the gap. Hopefully not this time, because I like the way he tries to move it on and create inside 50s.

Good win Dees

Was out and checked the score in the 4th quarter ... holy moly! Well done Demons!

Revenge against GWS.

Going out on a win.

Giving us a tonic to get us through the summer.

Giving Cross the high note that he deserves.

And it's fathers day! Yay for the dads.

Apart from not quite going on with it in the last quarter, I don't think you could have asked for a better afternoon from the boys.

Amazing how two hours of football can have so much bearing on the next six months. All of our sudden, we've reached our target of 7 wins, we've broken the Etihad curse, we've unearthed some decent young talent in Harmes, White, Newton and Stretch, and the off-season suddenly doesn't look so gloomy.

Very pleased.

JKH needs to do more

Do us all a favour. Take your negative garbage and [censored] right off and let us supporters enjoy this win.

You are the typical negative supporters Roosy is talking about.

Today's side had Viney, Gawn, Salem, Michie, Harmes, White, OMac, Newton, Stretch, Hogan, Brayshaw, JKH and ANB.

Most experienced of these players is Viney with 49 games.

Tyson, Kent, Frost, VDB, Toumpas and Petracca also on the list, none with more than 50 games experience.

He is slow and doesn't know how to find enough of the ball. He also struggles to find space. Will be lucky to be on our list after next year I would say

Scary times ahead.

There's a reason he was one of the 1st three on my ignore list

White was good, love his skill set. Hope he becomes a regular in 2015. 3 rookie upgrades would be a first

Pfft coming from a moron who wanted to trade Christian Salem this year HAHAHAHAH!!

Can anyone seriously believe this guy?

Put Petracca and another run and carry player into the mix, hope that one of King or Hunt steps up and away we go. Icing would be a composed, self believing Toumpas.

    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
