They should just put the padlock on the gates at GC, let the kids go back to their home state to their families.

    Sydney are rubbish.  If we can't beat them then we don't deserve to play finals.

    My only issue with today was our kicking inside 50.  It's still poor.

    Huge man crush on Brayshaw. 

    Thought he was really good today and so far this season.

    A strong win against weak opposition today.  Sing the song:  enjoy the win:  recover well;  review the game;  and move on quickly to prepare for next Sunday arvo at the 'G".  The demands increase every week from now on boys.  Go Demons.

    If we beat the Swans AND some other results happen next week are we mathematically LOCKED IN?

    Anyone who wants Gaff at Melbourne next to Gus Brayshaw needs to think again.

    If we beat the Swans, the Hawks beat Geelong and the Dogs beat the Kangas, we will be locked in to the finals after next round.

    Edit -  unless we lose our last two games by 10+ goals and Geelong win their last two by 10+.

    The AFL has a bit of a problem on its hands with this GCFC experiment.

    1 beat Swans - go to 52 points. 

    2. Hawthorn beat Geelong. Cats stay on 44

    3. Footscray beat North. Kangas stay on 44. 

     

    Then - either one of them must win both last 2 games AND makeup 12.5 % if we lost last two and surrendered 12.5%. 

    Go Dees

    Hawks

    Dogs

    Gaff will be out for Dees game I can guarantee that, so that’s a positive.

    About 5-10mins ago sue, so about 15min mark of 3rd. You’ll see a replay soon enough anyway

    Great work, got the job done. Now the real work starts.

    Shame about Smith, was looking promising today, just needs to tidy up his decision making/disposal. Hopefully it’s a confidence thing.

    Clayton Oliver is that good! 

    Would say it was a Dusty/Dangerfield display... but it was a Clayton Oliver display.

    Smashed their confidence in the 1st and just preserved ourselves for next week and beyond.

    Joel Smith the only blemish. Hope the lad is ok, doesn't look good tho.???

    Great game and always, it is fantastic to have a win - and one so convincing as this game against the Suns. However, we must all wish Joel a complete, speedy recovery from a 'dangerous tackle' slinging him to the ground. His game, today, was the best he has played for the MFC with some great intercepts and running pick-ups, good disposals and coverage of his opponents. Well done - best wishes with the recovery.

    • REPORT: Adelaide

      The atmosphere at the Melbourne Football Club at the beginning of the season was aspirational following an injury-plagued year in 2024. Coach Simon Goodwin had lofty expectations with the return of key players, the anticipated improvement from a maturing group with a few years of experience under their belts, and some exceptional young talent also joining the ranks. All of that went by the wayside as the team failed to click into action early on. It rallied briefly with a new strategy but has fallen again with five more  consecutive defeats.

    • CASEY: Coburg

      The Casey Demons returned to their home ground which was once a graveyard for opposing teams but they managed to gift the four points on offer to Coburg with yet another of their trademark displays of inaccuracy in front of goals and some undisciplined football that earned the displeasure of the umpires late in the game. The home team was welcomed by a small crowd at Casey Fields and looked right at home as it dominated the first three quarters and led for all bar the last five minutes of the game. In the end, they came away with nothing, despite winning everywhere but on the scoreboard and the free kick count.

    • PREGAME: Rd 18 vs North Melbourne

      After four weeks on the road the Demons make their long awaited return to the MCG next Sunday to play in a classic late season dead rubber against the North Melbourne Kangaroos. Who comes in and who comes out?

    • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

      The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.
