I would like to think we start off like we did in the JLT game against Richmond and keep it up for four quarters rather than go into a shell as we did that day.

Of course, the real thing is all about intensity. I think we have the team to do the job.

Let's roll DEMONS

Any win is a good win today being Round 1

Could be 100 points or 2 points

Just win

Win it for Max, Win it for the Club Members, Win it for yourselves.

Believe that you can win every quarter...

Go in hard...

 

 

I feel like we can't lose when you're up and about, SWYL.

How many thousands who normally go in by train are missing out today?

That photo was taken ages ago. There are now 8 people in that section.

Anything could happen today. Port will go in hard, i have no doubt. 

Today will give us a good idea how much the players have matured. I saw it last night, late in the game. The Filth had 3 experienced players on the bench who couldn’t get on the ground. 

Players will now have to do some coaching on the ground, and sometimes they will have to hurt late in a quarter, like the old days. 

I like it. The runners became an obstacle on the ground

it’s round 1. An ugly scrappy win is fine by me, just win.

This will cost the teams with selfish players. Teams with team orientated players will benefit. 

Commentators on Thursday and Friday were noting that players on the ground were ignoring the bench to stay on the ground. I'm not sure if this was 100% accurate but if so it's not great from those individuals.

I can see the day coming soon when players will carry pagers to get them off the ground.

Maybe we could find a use for those jiggers that Darren Weir no longer needs?

    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

    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
