  • 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    I posted on their gameday thread (post game), however, my posting privileges on that thread have been revoked.  

    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. ;)

    • POSTGAME: Essendon

      Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

    • GAMEDAY: Essendon

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?

    • PREVIEW: Essendon

      As the focus of the AFL moves exclusively to South Australia for Gather Round, the question is raised as to what are we going to get from the  Melbourne Football Club this weekend? Will it be a repeat of the slop fest of the last three weeks that have seen the team score a measly 174 points and concede 310 or will a return to the City of Churches and the scene where they performed at their best in 2024 act as a wakeup call and bring them out of their early season reverie?  Or will the sleepy Dees treat their fans to a reenactment of their lazy effort from the first Gather Round of two years ago when they allowed the Bombers to trample all over them on a soggy and wet Adelaide Oval? The two examples from above tell us how fickle form can be in football. Last year, a committed group of players turned up in Adelaide with a businesslike mindset. They had a plan, went in confidently and hard for the football and kicked winning scores against both home teams in a difficult environment for visitors. And they repeated that sort of effort later in the season when they played Essendon at the MCG.

    • PREGAME: Essendon

      Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?
