Has been a big bear of mine but when did they take the chopping the arms rule out of the game?!?! 

Feel like we need to get a big lead by half time as we’ll fade out.

ps there are some Dogs players I really enjoy watching play footy. And like to see Schache playing some good footy too.

14-4 clearances Dogs way. We really took notice of the first time we played them.

Jones is angering me now. He is the main 'handball to someone under the pump' guy and he turns over by foot. He genuinely is an issue, a Melbourne of old player. His defensive running is outrageously slow too.

Based on the evidence thus far, we will come second today.

Umpiring gets worse every week if that is possible.

We are just pumping it into our 50M with zero reward.

How long can we keep doing this?

Carbon copy of our game Vs Saints atm. Dogs working harder to win the ball.

This. 1000 times this. 

Don't know if it's effort or structure or talent, but they killed us there last time.

Gonna be an offensive slog today. Just gotta win it, and the best defensive running team across 4 quarters will get the win.

Glad I pay for WatchAFL and woke up early (UK) to watch a screen showing me how many minutes I'm missing

If ever that happens, try coming in through Channel (in the middle up the top), rather than Matches.

Just figured that one out, thanks! Good to know next time these muppets can't get their website working. Looks like I didn't miss much

More certain than death and taxes is that Melbourne will blast away inside 50 with long kicks not to advantage 

Its rinse and repeat isnt it.

There is no poise or class. Its spray and pray.

so much crowding of the wings when we have the ball, who the he'll coaches these Muppets, creating space is a junior footy tactic

Garlett, JKH are both cooked. Garlett's lack of forward pressure is infuriating. He's "throw the hands out to show you're making an attempt to tackle" stands out so much.

throw him in the middle.

doggies just like the saints moving it by hand fast and opening us up in the back half. Already been discussed how sides can do this to us. Saints openly talked about it after the game...SURELY they have something up their sleeve?????

    TRAINING: Friday 28th February 2025

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers headed down to Gosch's Paddock to bring you their observations from today's training session before the Demons head off to Perth for their final Practice Match. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Beautiful morning, not much wind, more than a couple of dozen spectators.  The players were up and about, boisterous and having fun. One of their last drills were three teams competing in a hard at it, handball game in a small area. Goody

    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
