If tmac has done his ACL we can continue this awesome form into 2020

    McDonald just says he “doesn’t think he did his ACL”. Jesus Christ! 

    This year is cursed. Horrible game. Skills are embarrassing. Season needs to end fast.

    Wow.

    That scoreline hilariously, and perfectly reflects where this team is at. We're 5 points better than the Blues, thanks to a goalpost.

    A draw would have been better, because I'm sure somebody in the club will actually see today as some sort of a win.

    Even though we won, I'm still disgusted. That was a pyrrhic victory.

    How many watching from home stood up from their couches and urged the Hannan kick to at least touch the post at the end?

    Kind of sums up the season, yeah, yeah, yeah then just ploop!

    We might not be able to field a team by the end of the season the way we are going

    Don't know the last time I saw a ball sit on the goal line. Too funny.

    That kick was the perfect summation of our season. Absolute joke.

    (Was a good kick don’t get me wrong, but how it just stopped on the line?!)

    I'm happy with the win, even if most on here will be negative. 3 down on the bench for the whole last quarter and we fought out a win. Wasn't pretty, but too show that heart says something about the group

    I love footy.

    I still love all of you.

    I'll be back another day, but don't be a [censored] - just enjoy a win.  No matter how bad it is.  I'd rather a W than an L.

    Cheers.

    6 - Saty for having a whinge about the game day thread, in the game day thread, during the game. Comedy gold

    5 - MFCSS is alive and well, and something that needs some serious government funding to complete a study on

    4 - the $50 bottle of red I’m going to be getting from a bloke I work with for the win

    3,2,1 can go please themselves for all I care.

    WHen you consider it we gutsed it out in the last quarter even though I feel we were out on our feet.

    Sensational effort from Oliver, In just about every contest.

    Preuss was pretty handy actually

    I only started watching right about the time Carlton made a comeback so you can blame me.

    Hunt redeemed himself after being truly deplorable in that last quarter with disgusting skills.  Full credit to him.

    I look forward to watching the part where we dominated.

    If the focus this pre-season isn’t 100% about improving skills and decision making then Goodwin will be gone by halfway through next year.

    I've never seen it. Appropriate that it happened to us, especially this year. Like the rest of our footy this year, comedy gold (if you happen to be fortunate not to take it to heart), and tragic.

    • PREVIEW: North Melbourne

      Can you believe it? After a long period of years over which Melbourne has dominated in matches against North Melbourne, the Demons are looking down the barrel at two defeats at the hands of the Kangaroos in the same season. And if that eventuates, it will come hot on the heels of an identical result against the Gold Coast Suns. How have the might fallen? There is a slight difference in that North Melbourne are not yet in the same place as Gold Coast. Like Melbourne, they are currently situated in the lower half of the ladder and though they did achieve a significant upset when the teams met earlier in the season, their subsequent form has been equally unimpressive and inconsistent.

    • REPORT: Adelaide

      The atmosphere at the Melbourne Football Club at the beginning of the season was aspirational following an injury-plagued year in 2024. Coach Simon Goodwin had lofty expectations with the return of key players, the anticipated improvement from a maturing group with a few years of experience under their belts, and some exceptional young talent also joining the ranks. All of that went by the wayside as the team failed to click into action early on. It rallied briefly with a new strategy but has fallen again with five more  consecutive defeats.

    • CASEY: Coburg

      The Casey Demons returned to their home ground which was once a graveyard for opposing teams but they managed to gift the four points on offer to Coburg with yet another of their trademark displays of inaccuracy in front of goals and some undisciplined football that earned the displeasure of the umpires late in the game. The home team was welcomed by a small crowd at Casey Fields and looked right at home as it dominated the first three quarters and led for all bar the last five minutes of the game. In the end, they came away with nothing, despite winning everywhere but on the scoreboard and the free kick count.

    • PREGAME: Rd 18 vs North Melbourne

      After four weeks on the road the Demons make their long awaited return to the MCG next Sunday to play in a classic late season dead rubber against the North Melbourne Kangaroos. Who comes in and who comes out?

    • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

      The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.
