Well it does show we are clearly on our way up.  

We have passed Carlton this year

 

Richmond and Brissy sitting fairly low but both have won 4 flags between them as opposed to Saints, Freo, North & Crows

We could win all 22 games next season and still be in 15th place.

Yup, its been a rough start to the century but the tide is turning.


surprised to see WC so low.

We had some good years, particular 2000, 2002 and 2006. Not enough though. 

I've said it once and I'll say it again..Melbourne supporters deserve a bronze statue out the front of the MCG.

It will be easy to find. It'll be the one absolutely covered in pigeon excrement.

Now you know why SWYL gets angry at this club from time to time. 

This list doesn’t include the 42 years previous, where we would still be down in the dark....

You must be chief flagellator at your local BDSM club Febes!

I've followed this club for around 60 years. I guess the above stats go some way to explaining why I'm so [censored] up.

Wow Brisbane surprise me a bit here, they were strong from 2000 to 2005, dropped out of finals, then pushed back in under crazy vossy didnt they? Shows how poor they have been every other year.

I even gave cats 1 less flag to make it look better! Just goes to show that it’s an awful past back to 65. Only made the finals 6 times outside of Daniher years. Let’s hope we build something special like the hawks and cats did. Exciting times ahead

  • 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.

    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?
