I miss the days prior to 1996 when games like this one weren’t televised and you’d get the 90 seconds highlights package on channel 7’s Sports World the next day.

We’d be spared the embarrassment of national TV exposure.

    The good news is if we continue like this we’ll be back to those Halcyon Days

    I am looking forward to the country football-esque score of the larger regional town, vs the township that we used to get on the ABC Country Football League Wrap Up on Saturday evenings.

    And, in the Western District Football League

    Heywood:  37.16

    Bessiebelle: 0.3

    and the Dee's are Bessiebelle ;)

    Geez I will miss the lack of effort, skills and consistency from the team.

    Thank the good lord the season is over. 

    Now to the good stuff ( trading speculation)

    I wouldn’t be too sure of that. I tuned into last night’s game expecting Collingwood to kick a cricket score against Essendon and they struggled to shake them off until after three quarter time.

    On second thoughts, it was a cricket score being close to what the Poms managed in their first innings.

    Everything in moderation - it was lovely in 2018 not having trade speculation as the most exciting part of the year... but we are back to what we know and love best :)

    We all hope the Dees win but for a team that is broken, with no leadership, no coaching clues and no pride playing the last game of the year in sub zero conditions you would have to say the Kangas by 85 with Brown kicking 14

    At the conclusion of today's game I would ask we all observe a minutes silence. In respect of the death of another Melbourne Season

    MFC building this as a "Chance to say thanks to Lewy"... just like our chance to say thanks to Roosey, expecting a 100 point flogging

    Exactly.

    We showed a complete lack of appreciation for Roos in his farewell game. Can’t see us giving a continental in Lewis’s farewell - particularly after he gave the players a deserved parting shot.

    Shows where we are at a club right now when everyone’s expecting an 80 + point flogging against a mediocre team that finishes 10th - 13th every year.

    I have no enthusiasm  for  game.

    I will watch it until it becomes obvious either we will get a jolly good flogging or Ronald McDonald head just pisses me off.

    At the risk of sounding in anyway positive the team on paper doesn’t look to bad. Clearly CHF is an issue but Preuss at full forward structurally look so much better. If he can just compete the like of Melksham; Fritsch; Petracca could kick a winning score. Just why we haven’t used Preuss in this role with the absence of key forwards defies any comprehension. He showed against the Swans early in the season a rare win the impact he can have. I do try to be positive but then I see Wagner and JKH and tell myself to get a grip on reality.

    Because he lasted about 1 quarter, he drops marks and is not agile.  Hopefully the off season can start to change this.

    • 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.
