The love for that fat man baby Ablett from the commentators. What a joke. 

Yes he’s been a superstar but he was crap last night. He isn’t a champion everytime he lays a tackle. Seriously!

    We’ve done well. This is now a free hit. Very proud of what we’ve achieved and beating the Cats who are one of our bogey sides is a big deal.

    Just watched Jetta on this

    http://www.afl.com.au/stats/stats-pro#/discover/CD_I281280/Jetta-Neville

    If anyone has seen a better 7 possession game in defence...well, 

    And his AFL ratings are below, which really make a mockery of what is useful in providing value to a side...

    Our forward pressure was insane. We will go a long way to winning next week if we replicate that performance AND nail those scoring opportunities. 

    We must convert our scoring opportunities next week. We won’t win kicking 1 goal 10 against the Dorks and we won’t get as many opportunities as last night.

    If it goes Cats, Hawks, Pies, Tigers, that will be pretty much the perfect 4 opponents.

     Breaking through the 2 teams who have given us the most pain through our dark years, then a preliminary final vs our ancient foe. Then a GF vs the defending champions. You couldn't script that better, and there's no 4 teams I'd like to beat more than them if we could do it.

    One week at a time though… 

    And it would mean we play each final at the MCG rather than having to go to Perth.

    Hopefully the AFL takes note of what happens when you give the dees a Friday night game in Melbourne.

    You get 91K fans and a cracking game.

    take note again next week afl, before working the fixture for next year.

    I think Gawny had a crack about Melbourne playing two Friday nights in a row during his interview with Eddie on Fox last night.

    Jordan Lewis just said on 3AW, the crowd last night was in the top 3 crowds he’s ever played in front of. He said the noise and support for us was phenomenal.

    No more clapping (polite applause) allowed !!!   only yell and scream for the mighty Dees.

     

    Make Noise... and Raise Hell Demons.

    An understandable mistake dc. That fellow is a very stylish dresser. I suspect we share the same tailor and fashion consultant.

    Never had this feeling before at all in my sort life barracking for the Dees... here’s to hoping something maybe brewing very soon!

    A lot of cheap late boat-anchor bumps etc.  A pale image of his former self.

    • 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.
