What if May had of come to pre season fit?

What if J Smith had 've been taken off the ground rather than aggravate his groin?

What if McDonald & Weed were in form? 

What if Lewis wasn't so slow?

What if Jones passed the ball off instead of breaking tackles?

What if Clarry kicked the ball more?

What if Lever hadn't of gotten injured?

What if Goodwin tried a different plan?

What if he played Fritter as a forward?

What if he played Frost & Hunt on the wings?

What if the ladder was upside down? What if this season is just a nightmare & we all wake up 2moro morning?

What if.........?

    I look forward to seeing 'when' rather than 'what if'!

    He WAS taken off the ground.

    Did a fitness test on the boundary line, looked in agony, so obviously we sent him back onto the ground in a meaningless game.

    What if we held firm and demanded pick 5 off of Freo, and drafted Rozzee.

    What if we didn't sell the farm for Lever.

    What if Oliver didn't sh*t himself everytime he had the ball in close and dished it off like a hot spud.

    What if Petracca wasn't scared to take the game on.

    What if Brayshaw didn't turn the ball over so much and had penetration in his kick.

    What if we had two Christian Salem's.

    What if we didn't overrate Tom McDonald as a forward. He isn't a forward's a-hole.

    What if Gawn was an effective tap ruckman.

    What if Goodwin could coach.

    What if we dropped Lewis back to the VFL - where he belongs.

    What if Hibberd went with him.

    What if we had of kept Bernie Vince.

    What if.

    Agree with Rozee call, though we would have taken Bailey Smith

    Early candidate for Post of the Year, KingDingALing. Reading that didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.

    What if we all just accept this year is a write off as disappointing as it is.

    What if we all stop blaming our coaches & players.

    There will be some serious egg on face in 12 months.

    We'd still be slow?

     

    The sad fact is that some of those were preventable (recruiting Lewis, who Cornes reckons would not have been offered a likeable deal by any other club) long ago.  Lewis didn't suddenly slow down over the pre-season.  He was slow when he walked in the door.

    The other sliding doors moment happened during the finals in 2018, where Scott and Geelong totally revamped their stocks (youth, talent), where we were comfortable beating slow teams on the G.  In contrast, we traded our way out of the super-draft, and paid big money for icing rather than cake.

     

    When this club has review at the end of 2019, all it had to do was read the preview here in the past few years.  That is the sad reality.

    • AFLW REPORT: Gold Coast

      The forecast said wind. The ladder said mismatch. The scoreboard said obliteration. Melbourne didn’t just beat Gold Coast — they dismantled them: 13.15 (93) to 0.6 (6). An 87-point obliteration, the Suns held goalless, and the Demons delivering their second-highest winning margin and third-highest score in AFLW history.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #28 Will Verrall

      It was a tough ask for him to break through as a 199cm ruckman in the shadow of an all-time great in that position who is also the club captain. He had some good days at Casey but was unable to progress and was delisted at the end of the season.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #29 Tom Campbell

      The 33-year-old Campbell has yet to play AFL football for Melbourne, but his Casey form has been strong and he has been retained as a ready-made ruck depth option who is widely regarded as someone who is excellent for the culture of the club.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #30 Harry Sharp 

      The Demons acquired an interesting player in Sharp, who narrowly missed securing a spot in the Lions’ premiership team last year. The 22-year-old medium forward played in the opening round this season and ended up with 18 senior games, although he was substituted in or out in for ten of those matches. He demonstrated glimpses of form, but ultimately ended the year on the margins of the team.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #31 Bayley Fritsch

      Worked his way back after a slow start and a further slump in form going into the midseason but became a solid contributor for the club in the latter half of 2025. Closing in on 300 goals for the club.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Gold Coast

      On Friday, the Demons return to our Casey Fields fortress where they have a 77% win rate. The scent of September is in the air and the struggling Suns are on the horizon. The Cranbourne weather forecast? Ominous, like the match itself: a strong chance of carnage. Let’s be honest, last week’s first half against the West Coast was a training drill but we dropped our guard in the final quarter. While this match is a mismatch on paper — second versus seventeenth — football is won in the wind, the contests, and the moments.
