Says it all really I thought it was bad but not this bad.

Basket case for so long.

Now is the time to push for a great next decade

Starts now.

No wonder there is pessimism around here.

    We were horrible for 5 years of that. Not close to AFL standard. Those days are over.

    Who cares. Not sure anyone would have expected any different.

    I knew we were bad, but I didn’t think we’d be worse than Carlton. That’s pretty damning. When will we finally come good?! It’s been 50+ years!

    2020 is a fresh start. Here’s hoping we show some improvement for [censored] sake.

    With the exception of not winning a premiership I would take the 90s/00s any day over the 10s. 

    Agreed we had a good side in the 90s if not for injury to some key players could have pinched a flag, the old what if Schwartz never did his ACL 3 times and Jakovich and his back

    Of course.   Id like to see a decades ladder for those two decades though .     I bet we are sill well outside the 8 in both the 90s and 00s.

    Gillon Mc has seen this and granted the Dees some compensation.  We will get

    1st priority pick in 2020 draft

    mid 1st round pick in 2021 draft

    exclusive access to Gippsland zone for the next 5 years

    Gillon Mc said “for the benefit of the game and the long term strength of the code, we need every team being competitive across many years”  

     

    sorry- it was all a dream!! we are not the Suns

    At least we get our fridge magnets right, unlike team #1.

    Am 87 to 91 was all top 4, 2000 are not all bad a grand final, finals in 2000 2002 2004 2005 2006, so, the only decade we need not play finals was 70' s

    If we ran a ladder from the 70's through to now I'm guessing we would be holding the thing up at the bottom.

    • CASEY: Williamstown

      The Casey Demons issued a strong statement to the remaining teams in the VFL race with a thumping 76-point victory in their Elimination Final against Williamstown. This was the sixth consecutive win for the Demons, who stormed into the finals from a long way back with scalps including two of the teams still in flag contention. Senior Coach Taylor Whitford would have been delighted with the manner in which his team opened its finals campaign with high impact after securing the lead early in the game when Jai Culley delivered a precise pass to a lead from Noah Yze, who scored his first of seven straight goals for the day. Yze kicked his second on the quarter time siren, by which time the Demons were already in control. The youngster repeated the dose in the second term as the Seagulls were reduced to mere

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Collingwood

      Narrm time isn’t a standard concept—it’s the time within the traditional lands of Narrm, the Woiwurrung name for Melbourne. Indigenous Round runs for rounds 3 and 4 and is a powerful platform to recognise the contributions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in sport, community, and Australian culture. This week, suburban footy returns to the infamous Victoria Park as the mighty Narrm take on the Collingwood Magpies at 1:05pm Narrm time, Sunday 31 August. Come along if you can.

    • AFLW REPORT: St. Kilda

      The Dees demolished the Saints in a comprehensive 74-pointshellacking.  We filled our boots with percentage — now a whopping 520.7% — and sit atop the AFLW ladder. Melbourne’s game plan is on fire, and the competition is officially on notice.

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      It was yet another disappointing outcome in a disappointing year, with Melbourne missing the finals for the second consecutive season. Indeed, it wasn’t even close, as the Demons' tally of seven wins was less than half the number required to rank among the top eight teams in the competition. When the dust of the game settled and supporters reflected on Melbourne's  six-point defeat at the hands of close game specialists Collingwood, Max Gawn's words about his team’s unfulfilled potential rang true … well, almost.
