Melbourne out of hell: Demons on the rise

Great article and right on the money!

    From the article:

    "Jack Viney is the spiritual leader. Concrete takes a backward step when it sees him coming.."

  • Quote

    This one is straight from here...

    "Although there will be those hardy fans whose pessimism is so ingrained they would refuse to believe in progress at Demonland even if they saw Nathan Jones holding a premiership cup aloft on grand final day."

    Thanks for the read

    still plenty of work to do but the players must be seriously believing they can match any side...

    I agree with the spirit of the article however we need to put the runs on the board. 3 of the teams we have beaten have been terrible and we were lucky to get away with a win in Round 1. There are great signs but we need to start winning the games we should win and take a few scalps along the way. The Demons ARE on the rise.

    I know the author well. Knowing his dislike for all things MFC it must've pained him to write it.

    I find it hard to believe that people hate Melbourne, other than those who have supported them their whole lives.

    I know him too although haven't spoken to him for years.

    He's a die-hard Richmond supporter but I didn't think he minded the Dee's all that much?

    The author looks EXACTLY like someone I know who has absolutely no interest in sport. Weird.

    it's nice to know that some are starting to pick up the scent. A Giants v Demons GF in a few years doesn't take a vivid imagination.

     

    Okay, maybe a little vivid...

    Cam has a lot of Demon mates that love to stir him up.

    Can't agree with this. We won because we played better than them.

    Was a seriously good come from behind victory against a side that has since beaten Geelong and Hawthorn. Don't know why people try and downplay it. Easily our most impressive victory of the year.

    Oh really? I read the article, but to be honest I thought it read like a well written post on here.

    I thought he must have been a demon supporter.

    • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

      Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.

    • PREGAME: St. Kilda

      With just over two weeks until their opening match of the 2026 AFL Premiership season, the Demons are already well on the path to redemption and have the Saints firmly in their sights ahead of their mid-March clash at the MCG. What do you think the team will look like when they run out on to the G?

    • REPORT: Richmond

      Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.

    • POSTGAME: Richmond

      The Dees ran another clinic for the second week in a row as they easily accounted for the Tigers in the lightning interrupted shortened match at Mars Stadium in Ballarat.

    • VOTES: Richmond

      Kozzy Pickett was the man of the match last week and has a vote lead over backup ruck Max Heath who didn't play this week and 5 votes over former Saint Jack Steele. Who gets the votes in this weeks shortened match win over the Tigers? Your votes please. 6, 5, 4, 3, 2 & 1.

    • GAMEDAY: Richmond

      It's Game Day and the 2026 AFL Premiership season is almost upon us as the Demons take to the field for their final practice match before the first ball is kicked in anger in 16 days time. What are you expecting to see from the Dees today as they take on the Tigers at Mars Stadium in Ballarat?
