To Hell and Back.    What an arrogant bunch of flogs to sell that rubbish to us.

That's the way guys, let's get stuck into the 7th gamer when all of our core leaders are playing poorly. You muppet, he's possibly one of about 2 of our players who are playing well.

Triple M commentary:  "Simon Goodwin standing 3 metres from me with his thumb in his mouth,  clueless what to do next. " Says it all really.

Rebuild time. Rip that band aid off. 

Rebuild may be hard when we gave away our top 3 pick in this draft already, and our so clever recruiter thinks he is smarter than he actually is.

What a joke. Jason Taylor needs the flick

We could have taken Serong to. Absolute star, instead we take an amateur basketballer. Combo of Serong/Georgiadis would have been nice.

The misery continues for members & supporters for well over a decade apart from one season which was another false dawn.. I just wonder how Bartlett & Pert expect members & supporters to be subjected to another failed season & expect $$$ from them!

The tackling efforts tonight, particularly by our forwards and mostly by our mids, has been the worst I can recall. Maybe similar to the prelim, but that was mostly a case of us not having the ball. We've had the ball a bit in this game, but as soon as we give it up they run through us.

Most people don’t get sick at all with the virus.

If Melbourne wasn’t going to push me over the edge tonight... you’ve just done it. Congratulations.

The team can't run. It's the difference between a team that can run and a team that can't.

4 day break.

It’s a variable but not as much as you’re making of it.

You're a young fella aren't you?

We've had a couple of false dawns in almost 6 decades. Don't waste your time. The Hawks will have a full rebuild and start winning multiple flags again before our blokes realise we have a coach who is taking us backwards.

That's not quite the irrefutable response I was looking for to prevent a sink into tiddely winks...

This is far more of a problem than gameday moves.

I get people are frustrated but there is so much rubbish in this thread. There's plenty wrong with the club but complaints about Lever (possibly our best), Pickett (7th game) and Goodwin not flipping magnets is ridiculous and doesn't address the real issues: turnovers, gameplan, lack of leadership, inability to play football unless we win CPs/clearances, lazy midfielders.

Pickett would look like a superstar if he was playing with Port tonight.

We'll probably ruin him by mid season next year.

Ah good one.

If we play like this, all 17 clubs are better than us.

Meanwhile the Dogs won a flag four years ago. When did we ever "go past" them?

Can’t argue the 4 day break. But they only had one extra day. 
We have no injuries yet we brought in a slow tall to help with the legs off a short break?

    HIGHLIGHTS/LOWLIGHTS by Whispering Jack

    Melbourne traveled across the continent to take on the Fremantle Dockers in sweltering conditions at Mandurah south of Perth in a game that delivered the club both its highlight and its lowlight in the first minute.  But first, let’s start by doing away with the usual cliches used in connection with the game. It was just a practice match and the result didn’t matter. Bad kicking is bad football. The game was played in severe heat, the swirly breeze played havoc with both teams resulting in

    TRAINING: Friday 28th February 2025

    A couple of Demonland Trackwatchers headed down to Gosch's Paddock to bring you their observations from today's training session before the Demons head off to Perth for their final Practice Match. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Beautiful morning, not much wind, more than a couple of dozen spectators.  The players were up and about, boisterous and having fun. One of their last drills were three teams competing in a hard at it, handball game in a small area. Goody

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the
