Last year we seemed to cop teams at the worst possible time, this year we've had a decent run which continues this week against the Crows with their current injury problems. If we're fair dinkum this is 5 on the trot.

Of course they were training the house down!

 

Did the house fall on T-Mac's foot?

The only positive thing is that Pedo is in very good form so he is a good replacement.

If it really is the same injury  he is likely done for the season.

This club is cursed.

Hardest game coming up is Collingwood, 1CW will have their eye on this and i think we'll arrive having won 6 on the trot. Spargo for Jeff i reckon he's had enough of Casey and will provide some defensive pressure in what could be his last chance for another 4 weeks.

 

TMAC and a foot?..........faaaaaaarrrrrrrrrrrrkmedead

How does SEN know it’s the same foot? 

Cameraman: “Tom McDonald is down”

Reporter: “Is it the same foot?” 

Cameraman: “I’ll zoom in......No he’s holding just above his ankle”

Reporter: “Zoom out.....what can you see now?”

Cameraman: “It’a a bit blurry from here, he seems to be holding something.”

Reporter: “Could it be his foot” 

Cameraman: “It could be his foot” 

Reporter: “He’s done the same foot again.”

Wasn't it DV8 who said we all need to be more positive and less negative?

Maybe the borderline veil of negativity/nervousness is a self protection measure. I've already conceded we'll lose so I can be all frowny face "I KNEW IT" (grumble grumble) rather than actually disappointed.

 

(Note to DV8, post made in jest do not take seriously)

I don't EXpect to lose this game, but do not want US to go in a bit unprepared. not hungry enough or sharp enough.  Up against it is where we play our toughest footy.

We are coming off a soft game last week, and that is always dangerous in the players head-department.

Staying tuned.

 

Beware the Crow, feasting on carrion.

Foot is the new knee.

 

Wonder how Viney has been pulling up. Seems to be a bastard of a thing to shake.

Surprised by everyone’s confidence on this game. Crows have beaten Sydney away and beaten the tigers easily. They were The best team in the H&A season last year. They have had a few injuries all year but they’d building up now. 

Reckon its 50-50 but im quietly confident

I agree as well.

A lot here are severely underrating Adelaide. Remember they beat Sydney in Sydney with an even more depleted side than what they'll put out on Sunday.

Would be one our great wins in recent year if we could get out of Alice with a win over a bona-fide top side.

Yeah, it is a bastard of a thing to shake, thank heavens it is not the foot.

    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
