Not a bad 5 disposal game from Naughton!!

    On the one hand, Adelaide are appalling so the Dogs look better than maybe they really are.

    On the other hand, our recent form is a result of beating Adelaide and North.

    The Dogs have a quality midfield (Bont, Macrae, Libba, Dunkley, Hunter) and with Naughton up forward (and likely Bruce to return next week) we will be in trouble if we don't match them, at the least, in clearances.

    That Bombers teams team is deplorable. Can’t wait to play them in the last round

    I'm not really concerned about who wins between St K and the Bombers. They both have a pretty hard run home and I wouldn't be surprised if they both missed finals.

    Regardless of result, [censored] Essendon’s list is overrated, closer to a rebuild than a flag

    That is actually crazy! Wonder how many after the siren shots to win we have missed over the years? It was only last year Weid missed against Adelaide for one.

    Jeff White is probably the closest we have had. I thought the old Smokers Stand was going to collapse that night. 
    Everybody went nuts!!

    I wouldn’t have thought the Weid shot would have made the above list (had he kicked the goal) as there was still a couple of seconds after his shot.

    Yep 2005 round 21 vs Bulldogs.

    Leoncelli in 2001 Vs Adelaide was probably a second left on the clock.

    We'd beat Essendon today on a zero day break. They are awful

    Yeah I reckon the McKenna thing might work in our favour to a degree. Essendon May have beaten us a month or two ago but they are rooted now

    • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.

    • PREVIEW: North Melbourne

      Can you believe it? After a long period of years over which Melbourne has dominated in matches against North Melbourne, the Demons are looking down the barrel at two defeats at the hands of the Kangaroos in the same season. And if that eventuates, it will come hot on the heels of an identical result against the Gold Coast Suns. How have the might fallen? There is a slight difference in that North Melbourne are not yet in the same place as Gold Coast. Like Melbourne, they are currently situated in the lower half of the ladder and though they did achieve a significant upset when the teams met earlier in the season, their subsequent form has been equally unimpressive and inconsistent.

    • REPORT: Adelaide

      The atmosphere at the Melbourne Football Club at the beginning of the season was aspirational following an injury-plagued year in 2024. Coach Simon Goodwin had lofty expectations with the return of key players, the anticipated improvement from a maturing group with a few years of experience under their belts, and some exceptional young talent also joining the ranks. All of that went by the wayside as the team failed to click into action early on. It rallied briefly with a new strategy but has fallen again with five more  consecutive defeats.
