When losing is the only way to win its not losing it is the way. 

That is exactly what was said on here 10 years ago. We all know what happened 

Don’t even consider planning any Strategy to lose. This club checks out far too many times already. 

WIN THE LAST 2 GAMES.

 

Given our percentage we're not moving up with one win anyway.

If Carlton and Sydney can both beat St Kilda (doubtful, but possible) then we could win both games and still not move up from 17th.

My main concern if they did happen to win their last two games would be that it might lull the football department, players etc. into another false sense of security ahead of pre season and next season, and the opportunity to continue with the usual positive spin “We always believed in the game plan, we’re playing “the Melbourne way” with those last two wins of the season, launches us positively into next season, no need for a review, overhaul. rebuild, just need to tweak a few things” etc.

Not that I particularly want them to lose their last two games either, but at least that would leave the stark reality for all to see of so few wins for the season and keeps the heat on all concerned at the club to try to actually do something about it.

now lets just sit back and watch us win last 2 games to lose pick two in the draft, Melbourne are so predictable!  i know some posters will say we should aim to win, but im pretty sure Sydney will be tanking like theres no tomorrow!!!

If we beat Sydney the way we are travelling then they  certainly will be tanking, However we tank without realizing that we are tanking.

We are set in default mode.

I just want this season to be over and done with?

Once the siren sounds for the last match in two weeks time, the 2019 sticker will be ripped off my ute, never straight into the bin, as well as washing all my Demon gear. to rid the rid the stench of this s*#^ year.

You watch the likes of slobo, caro, and that purple twit?, say are the Dee's tanking?

So just ended please!

If they actually watched any of our games they'd realise we were just hopeless.

  • The Clayton Oliver Thread

    Melbourne have held talks with Clayton Oliver and they’ve laid out where he fits in under Steve King’s vision and been frank about expectations. Oliver is still under contract for five years, but the door is open if he wants to explore his options elsewhere.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Essendon

    It’s Pink Lady night at Princes Park — a vibey Friday evening setting for a high-stakes clash between second-placed Melbourne and eleventh-placed Essendon. The wind-sheltered IKON Park, a favourite ground of the Demon players, promises flair, fire and a touch of pink. Melbourne has never lost a home-and-away game here, though the ghosts of two straight-sets finals exits in 2023 still linger.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: # 1 Steven May 

    The premiership defender has shown signs of wear and tear due to age, and his 2025 season was inconsistent, ending poorly with a suspension and a noticeable decline in performance. The Demons are eager to integrate younger players onto their list and have indicated that they may not be able to guarantee him senior games next season, in what would be the final year of his contract.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: # 2 Jacob van Rooyen

    The young key tall failed to make progress during the season, with a decline in his goal kicking output. His secondary role as a backup ruckman, which may have hindered his ability to further develop his game, and he was also impacted by the team's poor forward connection. It will be interesting to observe his performance under a new coaching regime.
