Interested in the concept? Will they play the full games on the Dees website? There is no other way of watching the reserves play. Is there a way to persuade them to play the games on the Dees website.

    Would be great if they did.  Perhaps they could get the guys that did the Nth Melbourne practice match back in.  That was a great little production really. 

    Always like to see the reserves and I'm glad the AFL and the clubs have got together and enabled these games to happen.  With a nearly completely fit list (for once) but also plenty of developing talent and depth, I think it's an advantage for the MFC for these games to be going ahead.

    It's suppose to be about 16 a side so this is what the team could look like.

    Has a scratch match against Carlton this week been locked in?

    I doubt Pruess or Petty will play, they didn’t appear in the match sim. But fingers crossed

    wow that backline is tiny @WERRIDEE

    I think one of Smith or OMac will be in the curtain raiser and playing Key DEF given Lever is fit

    Why don't they play Spargo in the Back Pocket they won't be able to see him.

    Yep, latest injury report has Petty (groin), Preuss (Achilles) and Hore (toe) sidelined. At least a month for all of them.

    Yes disappointing.

    Petty is one bloke that I really want to see progress this year either as a tall back or key forward. He might be on the trade table at year end unfortunately as the Crows may dial up his number and he be tempted. 

     Preuss is fragile for a guy that looks like an absolute warrior.  

    Toes must be the new AFL issue !!

    Remember that anything goes with these matches . It's open to the clubs to swap players, reduce numbers etc etc

    I think that one of them will play and the other will be carryover emergency. So I don't think either will play.

    With Hore, Preuss and Petty out. It doesn't look good for Petty. I have had to change the team.

    I reckon we stack our reserves with best 22 and focus on this match. Carlton will never see it coming.

    Interesting. 

     

    We are playing at Princess Park against the blues Saturday at 11 i think. Be fun to sneak in and watch

    A bit strange the clubs involved in tonight’s game didn’t provide any score updates or reports for their supporters. Wonder if it was an AFL directive as the broadcasters were trialling some TV tricks.

    • NON-MFC: Round 14

      Round 14 is upon us and there's plenty at stake across the rest of the competition. As Melbourne heads to Adelaide, it's time to turn our attention to the other matches of the Round. Which teams are you tipping this week? And which results would be most favourable for the Demons’ finals tilt?

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

    • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

      The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Collingwood

      Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.
