Take joy in the suffering of others

Go Dees!!!

    All these people saying the Dogs have no forwards have t obviously been paying attention to Naughton. The young guy is a gun. 

    He's certainly talented and capable of tearing us apart, but consistency is not his thing.

    He's kicked 22 goals but 9 of those have been in two games (5 when he ripped Richmond to shreds, 4 last week vs Geelong) meaning 13 in the other 12 games.

    He'd only kicked 4 goals in the previous 6 games before last week.

    We have to back May in to be able to stop him.

    Their forward line is hopeless, and our backline is stacked. Can’t see them scoring enough. We win this 

    They still have the Bont if we can't lock him out sufficiently.

    We do play this ground better than most other grounds now but i fear the injury gods have crueled us too many times too often now to think we won't be effected in matches like today.

    Injuries and last week's 2nd best game for the year aside, our forward set up / personel is still as poor as it gets and we are still very skilled giving the opp way too many easy turnovers.  The better teams will cruel us on those and the mediocre ones like the dogs will probably do enough to beat us on the day.

    Never been able to put more than one win together other than the Hawks/GC rounds and we know how bad the GC are going.  Confidence and belief can't be great within the four walls right now.

    We do have Clarry though.  Can win a game off his own boot if he plays clean and smart like he did last week so we just might sneak in another cheeky victory if everyone turns up and plays four quarters.

    Great mark Jayden. Really nicely brought down. Very clever. 


    Hunt must have a decent conversion % on set shots vs most of his team mates up forward

    Soft hands Harmes he was 3 feet away lol.  How was that NOT holding the ball on the flank there.  Clearly dragged it in and made NO attempt

    Who would have thought Hunt would lead our goal kicking for the year


    No 6 for the Dogs has one ugly haircut. He mustn’t have any friends.

    Poor Jetta looks so rusty. 

    Lewis is soooo slow. I hate him in the midfield.

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.

    • GAMEDAY: West Coast

      It's Game Day and the Demons have a chance to notch up their third consecutive win — something they haven’t done since Round 5, 2024. But to do it, they’ll need to exorcise the Demons of last year’s disastrous trip out West. Can the Dees continue their momentum, right the wrongs of that fateful clash, and take another step up the ladder on the road to redemption?

    • FEATURE: 1925

      A hundred years ago today, on 2 May 1925, Melbourne kicked off the new season with a 47 point victory over St Kilda to take top place on the VFL ladder after the opening round of the new season.  Top place was a relatively unknown position for the team then known as the “Fuchsias.” They had finished last in 1923 and rose by only one place in the following year although the final home and away round heralded a promise of things to come when they surprised the eventual premiers Essendon. That victory set the stage for more improvement and it came rapidly. In this series, I will tell the story of how the 1925 season unfolded for the Melbourne Football Club and how it made the VFL finals for the first time in a decade on the way to the ultimate triumph a year later.
