The problem with the saints game plan is that everything needs to go perfectly well for them to look like a good footy side.

Exactly the same as the MFC


For every 5 things St Kilda do right, they make 1 mistake which completely kills all momentum they had and hands back momentum to the opposition. What an infuriating team to watch.

Saints lose by 4 after a billion opportunities to score a goal. Heartbreaking. 

Hawthorn leadershipjave fear of losing . Ours don’t.

Wow both games a cracker in the end. Not sure clarko would be happy with that

a lot happier than our mate Goodwin... but I get what you are saying

So the winner of next week's match Hawks V Sydney get top 4, loser down to 5th probably. Either way, top 4 aspirations are cooked for us. Just a [censored] fight to stay in the 8 now, as we expected.

Goodwin would take a 1 point win over anyone at this point.

Why?

they had an off night and still won. We at the MFC can only dream such scenario’s. 

It will be forgotten about by Monday afternoon 

Feels like a real slow death this time. Every little result sucking a bit more life out of us. 

Hawks know how to win, we know how to lose.

It's like the entire round 23 2017 weekend (after we lost to Collingwood and all saw what was coming) spread out over an entire month. It's like I've been stuck in a slow-motion car crash ever since that Sydney loss, arguably even since the [censored] Geelong loss.

If Freo beat Coll in Perth and we win both, we can finish 4th?

Yeah pretty much. We’re just watching it all unfold in slow motion this time.

They’re a totally different team at home and Pies have a huge injury list, anything can happen as we almost saw with Saints tonight.

  • PREVIEW: North Melbourne

    Can you believe it? After a long period of years over which Melbourne has dominated in matches against North Melbourne, the Demons are looking down the barrel at two defeats at the hands of the Kangaroos in the same season. And if that eventuates, it will come hot on the heels of an identical result against the Gold Coast Suns. How have the might fallen? There is a slight difference in that North Melbourne are not yet in the same place as Gold Coast. Like Melbourne, they are currently situated in the lower half of the ladder and though they did achieve a significant upset when the teams met earlier in the season, their subsequent form has been equally unimpressive and inconsistent.

  • 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.
