Two weeks ago the Crows beat the Cats who  we could not beat with Clarry in the side.

How on earth will we beat the Crows on their home patch with or without Clarry?

4 weeks ago, Bulldogs beat Geelong by 2 points.

2 weeks ago, Melbourne beat Bulldogs by 50 points.

1 week ago, Geelong beat Melbourne by 2 points.

Old Dee, your argument is so illogical.

This season more than others, it is noticeable that certain teams just match up well against others. There are 14 teams that on their day can beat each other irrespective of ladder position.

We're not a genuine contender.

But we are a genuine contender to get into the finals series. Just not do very much when there.

But that's fine...  as we are onward upward.   And we are growing older and maturing, getting stronger, getting better.

It's all part of the deal.

I differ somewhat.  I don't think we'll make it, but I think if we do we can do some damage.  I think our mental hurdle is our absence from finals, not the premiership drought.  Make finals and I think we'll play with more freedom and be more dangerous.  Not saying by any means that making the finals should be a measure of success, that should always come down to premierships.  I don't think many sides would want to face us if we made it to the finals.  But, alas, I don't think we will this year ?

No more of this stuff please Dees, lets have a crack at the title.

Just as I was beginning to forget about this debacle. Thanks Febes

De Goey out for at less two weeks with bone stress in lower leg. Maybe there is some truth to Gosch's Paddock surfece

Except they don't train there.

That said there has been questions asked if they Olympic park (where they do train) surface is a contributing factor in their soft tissue injuries.  Which would be weird given it was purpose built for pies to train on

OK, thought they trained on opposite ovals beside each other, managed by same curator? Never been there

I think we can do some damage in the finals series, but I don't think we are ready to go all the way.

We're a bit immature, a little bit short of what it takes IMO.

We need to try to recruit a couple in the 26 yrs to 28yrs bracket.


I reckon most of the emergencies should travel this week.

Vanders for Harmes, just in case he doesn’t come up

Weideman for Hogan, just in case Hoges doesn’t get over his man flu

Wags for JKH, on the off chance the match committee realise they’ve made a mistake

Peds because he’s a worthy inclusion

  • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

    When the Demons blew their 46-point lead at Marvel Stadium in Round 20 last year, the fallout was enormous. Like an event straight out of a Shakespearean tragedy, Melbourne’s final-quarter collapse left fans reeling and the club grappling with the aftermath.

  • PREGAME: St. Kilda

    With just over two weeks until their opening match of the 2026 AFL Premiership season, the Demons are already well on the path to redemption and have the Saints firmly in their sights ahead of their mid-March clash at the MCG. What do you think the team will look like when they run out on to the G?

  • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

    Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.
