  • Time for the coach to go. Our structure is shot. Players not playing for him. In fact sack anyone that had anything to do with signing Trengrove
  • I don’t think anyone can argue against the point that we’re in a complete rebuild phase. There’s a lot of things to fix/improve etc
  • If anyone says at least it was only 8 goals, I’ll spew up
  • In summary, we led by around 18 points at some stage in the first quarter. 11+ goal turn around for the remainder of the game.
  • I was a little under-whelmed by Melbourne. They'll be there or thereabouts in September but not sold yet.
  • Congratulations to Nathan Jones too on 248 H&A games.
  • Time to organize the trades. Dalhouse Boyd and Roughead. Delistings - Honeychurch, Dickson, Smith, Crozier, for starters. Boyd need to do something about him. Cut our losses and move on.
  • Boyd just isn’t the answer I’m afraid. Bloke looks like Tarzan but plays like Jane
  • Noooo dogs how could u let a salary cap breaching club like Melbourne beat u..they dont even have training facilities
  •  just an opinion this is.... in my heart NOW.. yes..2016...this group did play well..but...i am fully convinced to the hilt...it was just as about every other premiership certain club's won..IT WAS GIVEN TO THEM...by th AFL... n.. that's FARKIN SAD.!!.. 1f60e.png?
  • Are the Doggies that bad or are the Demons that good. What is going on.
  • Go Dees, had to beat the umpires as well as the Bulldogs.
  • Boyd and schache run away from the ball haha
  • What’s actually happened to Bevo? Seems a shell of the coach that led us in 2015 and 16. I just don’t understand what he’s trying to achieve, and the players look absolutely lost. It’s concerning.

    Congratulating Nathan Jones on '248 H&A games' is absolute gold.  I could see that poster yelling it out as Jonesy was chaired from the ground, frustration and anger written all over his face as he has nothing else to yell out.

    It means in his whole career he's only played 2 finals games, the other 248 are in the home and away season.

    Yes played 2 finals in 2006 but can’t fathom what point he is trying to making.

    I prefer them after a win. 

    Watching Geelong smashing the Suns, now us only beating them by 69 feels like a loss. 2 losses in one day

    I'm not sure why.

    In response to one of their fans saying they were "underwhelmed by Melbourne".

    It was our worst performance in 6 weeks on the back of being up for a fair while, a six day turn around and a trip to Alice.

    Glad we scraped over the line.

    Salary cap breaching club???

    WTF are they on?? Last time I checked they were the team that went and paid 1m a season to Tom Boyd whiles retaining their entire list. 

    If anyone's cap should be questioned it should be Hawthorns, can't see how we are close to breaching.

    I see ‘wowlace’ stole your avatar @ProDee

    In fairness, he was first.

    He took the incredible "amazeballs" expression, which left me with the incredible "you're a $%#$^%$ idiot" expression.

    Well it depends on your definition of "played". He was on the ground for the game.....didn't really display any football though. ;)

    • PREVIEW: Richmond

      A few years ago, the Melbourne Football Club produced a documentary about the decade in which it rose from its dystopic purgatory of regular thrashings to the euphoria of a premiership victory. That entire period could have been compressed in a fast motion version of the 2025 season to date as the Demons went from embarrassing basket case to glorious winner in an unexpected victory over the Dockers last Saturday. They transformed in a single week from a team that put in a pedestrian effort of predictably kicking the ball long down the line into attack that made a very ordinary Bombers outfit look like worldbeaters into a slick, fast moving side with urgency and a willingness to handball and create play with shorter kicks and by changing angles to generate an element of chaos that yielded six goals in each of the opening quarters against Freo.

    • NON-MFC: Round 07

      Round 7 gets underway in iconic fashion with the traditional ANZAC Day blockbuster. The high-flying Magpies will be looking to solidify their spot atop the ladder, while the Bombers are desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top eight. Later that evening, Fremantle will be out to redeem themselves after a disappointing loss to the Demons, facing a hungry Adelaide side with eyes firmly set on breaking into the top four. Saturday serves up a triple-header of footy action. The Lions will be looking to consolidate their Top 2 spot as they head to Marvel Stadium to clash with the Saints. Over in Adelaide, Port Adelaide will be strong favourites at home against a struggling North Melbourne. The day wraps up with a fiery encounter in Canberra, where the Giants and Bulldogs renew their bitter rivalry. Sunday’s schedule kicks off with the Suns aiming to bounce back from their shock defeat to Richmond, taking on the out of form Swans.Then the Blues will be out to claim a major scalp when they battle the Cats at the MCG. The round finishes with a less-than-thrilling affair between Hawthorn and West Coast at Marvel. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • REPORT: Fremantle

      For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

    • CASEY: UWS Giants

      The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

      The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?
