    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.

    • PREGAME: Sydney

      Just a game and percentage outside the Top 8, the Demons return to Melbourne to face the Sydney Swans at the MCG, with a golden opportunity to build on the momentum from toppling the reigning premiers on their own turf. Who comes in, and who makes way?

    • GAMEDAY: Brisbane

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons are back on the road with a massive challenge ahead — facing the reigning premiers, the Brisbane Lions, at their Gabba fortress. The Lions are licking their wounds after a shock draw in Tasmania last week, while Melbourne’s season hangs in the balance. Can the Dees defy the odds and pull off a miracle to keep their razor thin finals hopes alive?

    • NON-MFC: Round 10

      The Sir Doug Nicholls Round kicks off in Darwin with a Top 4 clash between the Suns and the Hawks. On Friday night the Swans will be seeking to rebound from a challenging start to the season, while the Blues have the Top 8 in their sights after their sluggish start. Saturdays matches kick off with a blockbuster between the Collingwood and Kuwarna with the Magpies looking to maintain their strong form and the Crows aiming to make a statement on the road. The Power face a difficult task to revive their season against a resilient Cats side looking to make amends for their narrow loss last week. The Giants aim to reinforce their top-eight status, while the Dockers will be looking to break the travel hoodoo. The sole Saturday game is a critical matchup for both teams, as the Bulldogs strive to cemet their spot in the top six and the Bombers desperately want break into the 8. Sundays start with a bottom 3 clash between the Tigers and Kangaroos with both teams wanting to avoid the being in wooden spoon contention. The Round concludes with the Eagles still searching for their first win of the season, while the Saints look to keep their finals hopes alive with a crucial away victory. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?
