    I'd rather win the AFLX than have T Mac available for 6 meaningless home and away games.

    MelXham won the AFLX Brownlow last season so he’s the only walk-up start. 

    I see what you did there.

    Well played sir. Well played.

    Yeah exactly, AFLX is what we all dreamed of winning growing up as kids

    Based on Preussy's classic rag dolling of T Mac in last year's AFLX, surely he is a must for inclusion.

    Maybe this is why so many delistings. This way, we will have plenty of new kids with nothing better to do with their time and a chance to show a bit without anyone really caring about the result. They can fill the AFLX numbers, fans get a look at them, and none of our core group faces the daft risk.

    All a cunning plan.

    AFLX is no time for kids mate, only the best of the best get gifted the opportunity to play on the glorious night

    We won the first one,  thats all that matters, no one will remember who wins the rest.  Cause we'll be the quiz night questions answer "winner "Melbourne" 

    I think it was important last year to build confidence.  It also helped us in practise some precise kicking and the run to break zones towards the forward line.   The format is not that taxing on the players compared to a traditional preseason game.  The downside is you can't use them to refine your game style is the real thing.

    Did Jennings coach us to the championship?

    I'm already desperate for some footy. But I'm not that desperate. 

    Having said that, I think there is a future for the AFLX concept, but just not with AFL present-day players. I can see it being a useful product to offer in non-AFL markets where finding appropriate oval grounds can be problematic. It's sort of like an Auskick for adults.

    Not exactly silverware but it's still a kind of ware.

    ... at least get 4-5 solid pages of meltdowns in 'is Goodwin the right guy' thread.

    • POSTGAME: Geelong

      The Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, falling to 0–4 after a more spirited showing against the Cats at Kardinia Park. Despite the improved effort, they went down by 39 points, and the road ahead is looking increasingly grim.

    • GAMEDAY: Geelong

      It's Game Day, and reinforcements are finally arriving for the Demons—but will it be too little, too late? They're heading down the freeway to face a Cats side returning home to their fortress after two straight losses, desperate to reignite their own season. Can the Demons breathe new life into their campaign, or will it slip even further from their grasp?

    • PREVIEW: Geelong

      "It's officially time for some alarm bells. I'm concerned about the lack of impact from their best players." This comment about one of the teams contesting this Friday night’s game came earlier in the week from a so-called expert radio commentator by the name of Kane Cornes. He wasn’t referring to the Melbourne Football Club but rather, this week’s home side, Geelong.The Cats are purring along with 1 win and 2 defeats and a percentage of 126.2 (courtesy of a big win at GMHBA Stadium in Round 1 vs Fremantle) which is one win more than Melbourne and double the percentage so I guess that, in the case of the Demons, its not just alarm bells, but distress signals. But don’t rely on me. Listen to Cornes who said this week about Melbourne:- “They can’t run. If you can’t run at speed and get out of the contest then you’re in trouble.
