Hawks percentage will be in the 70s or 80s after this game

What is/was the score? I tipped GWS, but not by a huge margin.

Looks like the Hawks went clubbing last night,turned up hungover and forgot to change their clothes.

Hodgey might be in trouble as well. Dished out the usual head high coat hanger when he was getting beaten and some run ins with Stevie J.

Nup.  Were lucky to win last three games by less than a goal and had umpire help.  Just getting old (er) and cant keep up with young fast teams.  

13 goal victory to gws!  I reckon 90 rotations must really hurt hawks and their game.

We play them twice.  IF we turn up we are a chance.

If i were a Hawks fan (shudders at the thought), i might be disappointed, but ultimately wouldn't give a sh!t.

I'd have seen 4 premierships in the past 8 years.

I hate the look of that Power Rangers outfit.

Watching Gold Coast for the first time this year.

They look to be a 1 man forward line.

Geez what a job GWS did on the hawks. But as a hawks fan you cannot complain. Just watch the last 3 premierships instead. 

Id love to see port beat Richmond. Just add more pressure on them. 

Freo still winless. It's just strange to see them on the bottom.

That man is pretty good though.

But you're right - stop Lynch and you go some way to stopping GC.

Looking at tonight's game, I just don't think Geelong get enough free kicks at Kardinia Park.

Had we won today, we'd currently be above Hawthorn on the ladder.

Kind of hard to believe, really.

Hoping this is a sign that Hawthorn, without luck/free kicks, is one or two notches below the best this year.

How shite are the tigers? Hardwick must come under some scrutiny. Even if it's horseshit dumped by supporters outside his office

Good thing we have Tom McDonald to zone off him next week.

Very funny.

And what a gun at zoning he is.  No one does it better.

Yep, can't wait to see the next evolution of our defensive zones in action. T-Mac could end up matched on Malceski!

Speaking of Gold Coast, Geelong are unsurprisingly, proverbially [censored] on them from a great height. Who the hell starts favourites next week? I'll be devastated if it's us, because it's a certain loss. :P

We'll beat Gold Coast. I'm generally pessimistic but, for all the AFL assistance, they are rubbish. And it looks like they've picked up injuries.

Wait till they get Roughy and anyone else who is injured back for the finals run and have a full list for the GF as usual.  If they finish top 4 they will give it a big shake on their home ground MFC yet again! Those 3 close wins will give them a great shot at top 4.

Gold Coast are rubbish. There is no chance they'll make the 8, even we have more chance than they do.

Unfortunately that makes us the wildcard, because really there's a clear 8 teams who are above us and we need something drastic to happen for us to join that group.

That's the ticket! Declare victory for the next round only hours a sour defeat! 

Gotta love Dees supporters!

    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

    Join us LIVE on Monday night at 8:30pm—note that this special time is just for this week due to prior commitments. 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
