    As much as I hate to admit it, the performance tonight was no better than 2015. Our preseason optimism has no basis. Prepare for Tigers mark 2

    Yep. I'm putting the lid back on and screwing it down for another year. Too many basic skill errors and some really dumb Demons footy. The ball movement of the Eagles was way better. We had no counter. and We lost too many centre clearances, despite the fact that our rucks dominated. .

    Yeah, I always judge our seasons based on practice matches. Especially ones against quality sides on their home turf in summer weather.

    It's classic Dees fan logic to write the season off after a decent hit out against a quality opponent.

    Have a feeling we'll have a strong start to the season then slow down. I predict somewhere between 6th (which I think is quite optimistic) and 11th. 

    Pretty mjuch that. I have us 9th.

    I've seen and heard enough this pre season to be confident that we won't lie down in any game in 2017.  That should mean winning more than our share of the tight ones, and refusing 'point blank' to be beaten by the likes of Essendon and Carlton.  As we all know, good teams find a way to win, even on their 'off' days, and I have a hunch that we will see that characteristic emerge this year.. My strong gut-feel is that we'll finish 5 or 6 with around 14 wins ......... a perfect launching pad for 2018 and beyond.

    Besides, I'm sick and tired of waiting!

    ALL going well, looking at the fixture it's 13 wins for mine.

    That would see us around 7 - 8th.

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.

    • GAMEDAY: West Coast

      It's Game Day and the Demons have a chance to notch up their third consecutive win — something they haven’t done since Round 5, 2024. But to do it, they’ll need to exorcise the Demons of last year’s disastrous trip out West. Can the Dees continue their momentum, right the wrongs of that fateful clash, and take another step up the ladder on the road to redemption?

    • FEATURE: 1925

      A hundred years ago today, on 2 May 1925, Melbourne kicked off the new season with a 47 point victory over St Kilda to take top place on the VFL ladder after the opening round of the new season.  Top place was a relatively unknown position for the team then known as the “Fuchsias.” They had finished last in 1923 and rose by only one place in the following year although the final home and away round heralded a promise of things to come when they surprised the eventual premiers Essendon. That victory set the stage for more improvement and it came rapidly. In this series, I will tell the story of how the 1925 season unfolded for the Melbourne Football Club and how it made the VFL finals for the first time in a decade on the way to the ultimate triumph a year later.
