If we lose, then

1- Goodwin should resign and acknowledge he is not capable of leading Dees to glory 

2- Players will be advised to stop drinking their own bath water 

3- media will enjoy the week and make Melbourne FC the laughing stock

4- Dees supporters will have another period of shame and despair

5- the holiday camp in Maroochydore will be under extreme review 

 

If we win, then...  (According to the media and special commentators) it’s because the Crows are hopeless and it proves nothing until we beat a good team.

    If we lose this then I seriously won’t watch another MFC game until the next round.

    I reckon we will lose this game.

    The best we could realistically expect is an unsatisfying 2 goal win after going missing in the second half again.

    And Norf will beat us easily next week while smashing us physically.

     

    If we lose to the Crows.......I wont be surprised in the slightest.

    Nah, upon reflection I think I’ll be done. 
    It’s already been too exhausting this year and I won’t let the misery get to me. 
    Change channel.

    I can very easily see us losing this game. Crows home crowd, they’ve made 8 changes and brought in a few debuts who some of the fans have been screaming for. 

    The crows will smell blood and they have just as big of a point to prove.

    No matter how many upgrades Demonland has had it will crash.

    And Goodwin may as well quit.

    Agree. Goodwin cannot continue if we lose this. It’s a “186 point loss “ no matter how big the scenario of a loss.

    Yep this game has massive ramifications, while I don’t think he would quit I would see it as the end of the road for Goodwin and it would be just about when he gets sacked rather than will he.

    So we got about another ten games or so to go and we only have to win two more to improve on last year. Look on the bright side...

    Why do i continue to think of our game against the drug cheats when they had lost a majority of their list to suspension and had not looked like winning a match all season?

    The more I think about this game the more I can’t work out how we actually win it. Adelaide are horrible this year but we know who their one win will be against for the season don’t we!

    Decided not to watch this one.  Football life sucked out of me by a club who never can be trusted.  They will lose and club back in crisis again looking for a new coach.

    If we lose, this board will go bananas.

    If we win, even by 100 points, this board will shrug its shoulders, dismiss it as an irrelevant performance, and expect us to lose to North.

    I cant decide if this is a no-win game or a no-lose game.....

    No-Win scenario:

    If we lose.... well that speaks for itself.

    If we win..... that should be expected so its not really a win (unless its by a gigantic margin).

     

    No-lose scenario:

    We lose...... more ammunition to use against the club and its coach. Can feel vindicated for past criticism of same.

    We Win...... Also speaks for itself. 4 Points and we are still in the race for finals.

     

    I think no matter what happens i will still be left feeling flat. Its what the club does well.

    Dear Melbourne Football Club,

    If you lose this week I will hide in my house. No visitors. No going out for a coffee. No shopping. Will live on my supplies.

     Greetings from Lockdown City,

    Wish you were here.

    P.S. Remember us?

    • PREVIEW: West Coast

      Saturday’s election night game in Perth between the West Coast Eagles and Melbourne represents 18th vs 15th which makes it a tough decision as to which party to favour. The Eagles have yet to break the ice under their new coach in Andrew McQualter who is the second understudy in a row to confront Demon Coach Simon Goodwin who was also winless until a fortnight ago. On that basis, many punters might be considering to go with the donkey vote but I’ve been assigned with the task of helping readers to come to a considered opinion on this matter of vital importance across the nation. It was almost a year ago that I wrote a preview here of the Demons’ away game against the Eagles (under the name William from Waalitj because it was Indigenous Round).  I issued a warning that it was a danger game, based on my local knowledge that the home team were no longer easybeats and that they possessed a wunderkind generational player in Harley Reid who was capable of producing stellar performances playing among men a decade and more older than he.  At the time, the Eagles already had two wins off the back of a couple of the young man’s masterclasses and they had recently given the Bombers a scare straight after their Anzac Day blockbuster draw against the then reigning premiers.

    • NON-MFC: Round 08

      Round 08 of the 2025 AFL Season kicks off on Thursday with a must-win game for the Bombers to stay in touch with the top eight, while the struggling Roos seek a morale-boosting upset. Friday sees the Saints desperate for a win as well if they are to stay in finals contention and their opponents the Dockers will be eager to crack in to the Top 8 with a win on the road. Saturday kicks off with a pivotal clash for both sides asthe Bulldogs look to solidify their top-eight spot, while Port seeks to shake their pretender tag. Then the Crows will be looking to steady their topsy turvy season against a resurgent Blues looking to make it 4 wins on the trot. On Election Night a Blockbuster will see the ladder-leading Pies take on the Cats, who are keen to bounce back after a narrow loss. On Sunday the Sydney Derby promises fireworks as the Giants aim to cement their top-eight status, while the Swans fight to keep their season alive. The Hawks, celebrating their centenary, will be looking to easily account for the Tigers who are desperate to halt their slide. The Round concludes on Sunday Night with a top end of the table QClash with significant ladder implications; both Queensland teams are in scintillating form. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • PREGAME: West Coast

      The Demons hit the road in Round 8, heading to Perth to face the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium. With momentum building, the Dees will be aiming for a third straight victory to keep their season revival on course. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • REPORT: Richmond

      The fans who turned up to the MCG for Melbourne’s Anzac Day Eve clash against Richmond would have been disappointed if they turned up to see a great spectacle. As much as this was a night for the 71,635 in attendance to commemorate heroes of the nation’s past wars, it was also a time for the Melbourne Football Club to consolidate upon its first win after a horrific start to the 2025 season. On this basis, despite the fact that it was an uninspiring and dour struggle for most of its 100 minutes, the night will be one for the fans to remember. They certainly got value out of the pre match activity honouring those who fought for their country. The MCG and the lights of the city as backdrop was made for nights such as these and, in my view, we received a more inspirational ceremony of Anzac culture than others both here and elsewhere around the country.

    • CASEY: Richmond

      The match up of teams competing in our great Aussie game at its second highest level is a rarity for a work day Thursday morning but the blustery conditions that met the players at a windswept Casey Fields was something far more commonplace.They turned the opening stanza between the Casey Demons and a somewhat depleted Richmond VFL into a mess of fumbling unforced errors, spilt marks and wasted opportunities for both sides but they did set up a significant win for the home team which is exactly what transpired on this Anzac Day round opener. Casey opened up strong against the breeze with the first goal to Aidan Johnson, the Tigers quickly responded and the game degenerated into a defensive slog and the teams were level when the first siren sounded.
