    Hard to believe that a club can be in the GF nine years after its inception and of course been in the finals for three years before.

    Out of interest who is credited with their now brilliant policy of draft young and trade. Looking at GCS and where they are you have to give it to them.

    West Coast won within seven years of entering the comp and Adelaide within six.

    Trying to see some positives from an MFC perspective but staring at the GC priority pick and their Darwin zone it's hard to see.

    Watching the captains/coaches press conference today, I’m struck by the vast chasm between theirs and ours when it comes to confidence, eloquence and overall intelligence. 

    We’re not going to win a premiership until we have that kind of leadership. Right now, we are not even close.

    So true. I wonder if a new Captain will be announced next week?

    Well it will either be close or Richmond will blow gws out of the water. 

    I know we have spoken of scully but I wonder how shiel feels today as well 

    I just think how marlion feels today waking up. You think of the legends who never won a premiership. Lockett, ablett skilton and this guy could just waltz in win a flag in his 1st ever game and get life membership

    There's a touch of arrogance with the Tiges bringing in Pickett for his first game.

    No matter what the party line the 2 boys who were pulled from a GF last week must be feeling it.

    They not only didn't get to play in the GF, they didn't get to audition for a spot in the big one.

    Must ruffle some feathers.

    If GWS have them covered at half time I think they (GWS) will run away with it.

    Richmond let teams get head starts and they have a belief in their ability to run them over.

    One day they are not going to come back.

    I hope it's this one...

    I think the Giants will win today. I used to hate their guts with a passion, as their inception and player drafting coincided with the time we needed it most. However, I now see a team that plays for each other and is passionate about the guernsey. They seem to have hit a sweet spot with the guys who have stuck with them on their list.

    Will barracking the Giants home today and I actually think they will win. Certainly don't deserve to be $3.30 outsiders, closer to a 50/50 game I would've thought.

    Some game being played today according to the news. Believe it involves Richmond and, ummm, the other mob

    I'm doing what I did last year as I can't bare to watch it properly.

    I'll watch from three quarter time onwards if it's close. I expect Richmond to win easily. Urgh.

    Sounds very much like you're more hopeful than anything else, mate.

    Richmond win it unfortunately.

    • 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.
