    I really hope this doesn't turn into a repeat of the weekend where every single result went against us. Fortunately Geelong lost so at least that's a plus, but wins by Hawthorn, North Melbourne, Port and Collingwood do us no favours. Here's hoping there's some upsets yet to come... And not against us!

    How does this impact MCG surface tho? genuine question. they water it anyway. and it never looks like that during the dry of summer?

    also melbourne has had heavy rain recently.

    Maybe the MCC are using a new grass strain. I have no idea. 

    Victoria isn’t being hit so hard. NSW and QLD are bone dry, whist sustaining a cotton industry!!

    it just don’t add up...

    We needed Ess to win that TBH

    Agreed, they were never going to get to 13 wins with their run home. We needed them to pinch 4 points off Hawthorn and give us breathing space. 

    Hawks could easily get to 14 wins now.

    The MFC has to keep winning. Will do us some good, win under pressure

    Brisbane are still in it. Brown would be much better off putting in a second and third effort instead of playing and flopping around for frees.

    Initially I was glad we had one less challenger for the 8 now but not so sure now.

    Terrible results for us so far

    All we need to do is worry about winning our own games, the rest will sort itself out.

    • PREVIEW: Hawthorn

      Melbourne and Hawthorn who face off against each other this week have more in common than having once almost merged and about to wear a blue jumper with a red v triangle and an embroidered picture of a bird on the front. They also share the MCG as their main home ground, their supporters are associated with the leafy suburbs of Melbourne and in recent times, James Frawley graced the colours of both teams. Even more recently, both have bounced back from disastrous five game losing streaks to start off a season. Of course, the Hawks turned their bounce into a successful leap from the bottom of the ladder into a finals appearance, making it to the semifinals in 2024 and this year, they’re riding high in third place on the AFL table. The Demons are just three games into their 2025 bounce back, and are yet to climb their way out of the bottom four although they are sitting a game and percentage out of the top eight. However, with the current sportsbet odds of $3.90 to win this week’s encounter, it seems a forlorn hope that their upward progression will continue much longer.

    • REPORT: West Coast

      On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

      The Demons return to the MCG to take on the High Flying Hawks on Saturday Afternoon. Hawthorn will be aiming to consolidate a position in the Top 4 whilst the Dees will be looking to take a scalp and make it four wins in a row. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.
