Where do people think we are on the Premiership Clock? 

I have us somewhere between 5-7pm as of today.

I have only had us around 11pm once, the year our beloved Stynes ran over the mark.

I think it is like a window but with a clock in it? 

"A symbolic clock is as nourishing to the intellect as a photograph of oxygen to a drowning man."

 

Currently broken. The hands are missing, the springs are loose, the cogs are worn, the glass is cracked and the battery is flat. The alarm still works. If it can be fixed who knows?

The Clock blew up last September in Perth

No one has any idea how to fix it, but we always dress smartly at Functions

What a load of crock

WTF?  It may be a load of crap or a crock of schitt but that saying makes no sense at all!

And don't forget to take off half an hour because, you know, all those South Australians ruining the club.

If you threw that premiership clock out the premiership window, you could watch time fly.

Yes, it's Sunday and I'm bored.  Come at me.

If you threw the premiership clock out the premiership window in summer it could be a premiership drought, however at MFC never a premiership hangover.

Premiership clock is least of our issues......

Club can't sustain success for long enough period to even contend for a flag!

Tigers & Pies are an example of clubs that can

Tigers 3rd prelim in a row

Pies 2nd prelim in a row


It’s called a premiership century rather than window/clock for all long suffering Demons, next year were 56 years in deep!

Or if you want to be positive and talk this century, we’ve only been waiting 20 years!

I have an awful feeling that we actually had a very small premiership window in 2018. A couple of close losses meant we ended up in Perth for a Preliminary Final instead of the MCG and our window shut.

  • REPORT: Hawthorn

    Melbourne and Hawthorn who face off against each other this week have more in common than having once almost merged and about to wear a blue jumper with a red v triangle and an embroidered picture of a bird on the front.  They also share the MCG as their main home ground, their supporters are associated with the leafy suburbs of Melbourne and in recent times, James Frawley graced the colours of both teams. Even more recently, both have bounced back from disastrous five game losing streaks to start off a season. Of course, the Hawks turned their bounce into a successful leap from the bottom of the ladder into a finals appearance, making it to the semifinals in 2024 and this year, they’re riding high in third place on the AFL table. The Demons are just three games into their 2025 bounce back, and are yet to climb their way out of the bottom four although they are sitting a game and percentage out of the top eight. However, with the current sportsbet odds of $3.90 to win this week’s encounter, it seems a forlorn hope that their upward progression will continue much longer.

  • REPORT: West Coast

    On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

  • 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.
