People are rightly farked-off beyond belief at this Melbourne performance, but Collingwood's pressure and disposal today have been very good.

McDonald forward. Nice to see Simon Goodwin being proactive...

BUt our pressure has been non existant.

Pies have just stepped around our tackles all day.

we are a soft club and have been exposed big time.

There's a sense of history about today - much like it was with the final round of 1987 when many of us travelled to Footscray and watched Melbourne's famous victory. Back then, we depended on Hawthorn

I was there that day as 9 yo Jack.  Still one of my favorite footy memories and pretty hard to beat from that perspective.   What great day of drama. Standing up the back of the hill, up aga

I am somewhat grateful that MFCSS has prepared me for this outcome and shields me from disappointment.

Seriously though the second half of the season has been pedestrian at best

None of them want to play finals. Jones has never been worse. Hibberd and Lewis can't hit targets. Tomald back to being a complete goose of a [censored]. Gawn no longer knows how to ruck, he's a training pad. Tyson is rubbish. Hunt can't grab a simple ball.

Lost to Buckley with his worst side possibly ever. 

Well done  

 

Jamie Elliott on the team sheet always has me worried. Very underrated player and pivotal to their scoring ability.

Another kick under zero pressure straight to black and white jumper as I type this. Unbelievable.

And Pedo coming off the ground lol

All going to script.

I don't care what all you losers think. This season is still not over for us. We have 40 minutes today to show what we've got, and I'll be watching the Adelaide game with great interest.

Could there be anything more "Melbourne" than this?

I don't think I've been as negative as Jaded. Of course I've been negative. Today is a dagger in the heart. I haven't taken potshots at Nathan Jones though like many have.

I think it's ok to ask questions of our captain in such an important game when he has gone totally missing!

Just about done with this footy club.....

Decades of pain apart from some successes which have always unravelled into infighting etc

Though Goody 1st year...he needs to find tougher/stronger leaders  in this team...

I called it 4 weeks ago when we lost to North.

When push comes to shove our leaders are losers. Jones should be offered to the highest bidder.

Something drastic has to happen or the last 3 years have been pointless. 

Whenever the pressure is really applied HARD

Our leaders Fail badly

"Jones played a superb Captain's game against Gold Coast" people tell me

For like the millionth game in a row, Melksham kicks another crucial goal. One more and I'd be happy this quarter.

Team continues to fall over at crucial moments...supporters have every right to be [censored] off from another pea hearted effort!

    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

    PODCAST: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    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. I apologize for skipping our annual season review show at the end of last season. After a disapponting season filled with off-field antics and a heated trade week, I needed a break. Thankfully, the offseason has recharged me, and I’m back—ready t

    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
