Every one except the selectors - what's wrong wither giving Trenners a go.

Couldn't agree more. If nothing else he would be match fit.

They are very disciplined defensively and Curnow and Casboult with Silvagni as a third mobile tall is a very solid forward structure 

We were much better that quarter but hard not to be given our poor first

Need to stop their easy sweeps from half forward to half back and nullify Kruezer and Gibbs in the second half

T Mac looks like a natural forward

Looks like they have a couple down....we will see if they come back. Hopefully some of our down players can lift

Trac takes a while to fire up and always finishes hard and strong. May dominate the centre from now on. Cripps out

I like the kid, but so far I have to agree.  Makes you wonder if JFK and Kennedy did something really wrong beyond what Kent did.  I've thought Kent has been ok, but was very supprised Kenedy didn't get the nod.  

...let's see what Smithy can do in the second half.

Bit harsh on JFK.  Poor bloke never saw it coming.

Curnow is towelling up Joel Smith. He looks like Buddy out there.

Very underdone - IMO rushed back in but will still trust the match committee

Cripps and white are out.

Joel Smith struggling but also Jayden Hunt not playing great. He's struggled since the concussion 3-4 weeks back. He's just not providing the same run and defensive intensity we're used to from him. Thank god for Hibberd and Jetta!

Eventually the question is gonna need to be asked about whether T Mac just stays forward now. He's killing it.

I bet Jessy Hogan is envious of his ability to win free kicks.  Turning the tables on that from his time in defense and playing smart.

Need to take advantage of Carlton probably 2 players down. Much better because we didn't handpass as much. 

Gee we better win because I have some annoying Carlton fans near me. 

They are all annoying. Lol !!!

We could be 10 goals up and you muppets would still whine about something.

In case anyone has a beef with the umpires, the free kick count at half time is 12 - 7 in our favour.

I still have a beef with them -- stats don't tell the full story

It is not the count, it is the decisions.  In which other game, ever, would the bump by ANB in the middle EVER has resulted in a free kick downfield?

Have been more even in the second Q.

Cripps and White out for the game. 2 players down. Must win now.

Both from collisions with Jayden Hunt?

    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.
