If we can hold Brisbane to 27 goals we can consider it a win.

Clarry's been quiet too. We appear to be half arsed in our tackling. Hope they get their act together in the next couple of weeks.

Only positives so far are Hunt and Petracca playing to their strengths and having an impact. Gawn is wining taps, but it's not leading to any effective clearances. Everyone else is playing poorly, and the effort is non-existent.

Hope the coach gives them a rocket and makes them have a crack. We're getting shown up by a worse team than us who are more organised and working harder.

attitude going into, preparing for this game

JLT melts in full swing...

Not sure if you've noticed Sisso, but going back to early 2000's, our season proper has generally reflected our pre-season form.

Imagine having to go to Amersfoort ?

I've been to both Cranbourne East and  Amersfoort. There are an awful lot of Dutchmen there but frankly, I prefer Amersfoort.

Lions taking this game very seriously. Dees taking it half arsed. Scoreline reflects it. 

Is it for four points? No. Just get through boys.

Started ok with their first 2 goals coming from Oscar McDonald being a total turnip.

After that it’s been lazy tackling, poor skills, inability to get balance at a clearance or a crumb and the backline going to [censored].

Why we are playing a spare behind the ball in a practice game is beyond me. Are we really that slow????

Not surprised Brisbane are good. More disappointed we can’t string any midfield skill together

I backed him last week, but he missed a handball, slipped over etc. He had a bit of a mare early.

Possibly, can’t find it in myself to get worried about this yet though

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

    Join us LIVE on Monday night at 8:30pm—note that this special time is just for this week due to prior commitments. We'll break down the Match SIM against North Melbourne and wrap up the preseason with insights into training and our latest recruits.

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo. The play start time was brought forward from the initial 11am bounce, due to the high temperatures forecast.  The match sim will consist of four 25-minute qu
