I can't make my mind up on ANB. He's a mixed bag. Every time I think I'm a fan he does something VFLish.

Maybe the truth is somewhere in the middle.

We just know how to win the ball. The problem is conversion. We are so manic with the ball that we sometimes don't know what option to use. We flood our own forward line. They had 5 inside 50s for 4 shots. Each shot coming from transition or an error at how half forward. 

We should be 8 goals up.

With sheer weight of numbers we should stroll this one in. But then I said that last week…and the week before too.

But we don't get value for our dominance should be 2 goal up at least

Kid is really improving and could eventually be quite handy. Give him a bit more time i reckon.

"Role player".  He's an average user of the ball which is being exacerbated by the wet.  Has been good up until this week.

Back 6 looking solid.

Hunt, Hibberd & Tmac on top with assistance from Mr Vince.

Hogan running under ball a few times.

Jones in everything but keep your feet son.

Cool hand Clarry has it on a string, bringing others into the game, clearance King.

Our gang tackling through the roof.

Viney kick quickly forward when you get a break... Hesitating a little too often and hand balling back to players under the pump or to no one. Looking close to his better form though. Just clean it up a little and go more direct when free instead of wide / backwards

Hibberd made the fatal mistake of hand balling to Melksham who turned it over.

    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
