Given we gave the cats a run for their money and could have just as easily pinched the Lions game, Im starting to think maybe the port game was the odd game out.

Surely despite cwoods outs we did the business and have asserted our right in the 8.

Tonight's game aside, we've lost to the other 5 teams we've played above us

We've beaten 12, 13, 15, 17, 18  as well as a depleted Pies at 7

I'm happy, just not getting carried away

    Vander's was one of the most influential players on the ground in the first half. He splits packs, makes us walk taller and puts the fear of God in the opposition. I couldn't care if he had no stats!

    Couldn't agree more.
    And he's down there with May for the tag team.
    Sick of watching us get beat up over the years.

    Hopefully somebody got on us for a 40+ point win for $14 odds with Sportsbet.

    If we had beaten cats and lions we would be 2nd.

    Happy your happy but just saying we were only thumped once.

    Go Dees.

    Just a beautiful afternoon watching us dismantle the hated filth from the couch....great to see Gus play well with Viney back in, perhaps it’s more about his form than the presence of Jack but it worked well today

    Sensational effort boys. 2nd Quarter was very impressive. Didn't stop running all day, showed some real hunger.

    Not gonna lie, beating the filth always feels just that little better.

    Were you brought up in West Heidelberg?

    You play what's put on the park.

    We had a horrible 2019. Let us supporters at least enjoy this win for once.

    Great team effort tonight albeit against a banged up Pies unit who still had some great players, Sidebottom, Adams, Grundy et al. But looking at the game we had a few passengers so there is ample room for improvement on paper of course. Do we have better options for Tomlinson, Jones, TMac, AVB? Don’t change all but there are some options to include one or more of Hannan or OMac if the matchups are there.

    Loved it. That contest accidentally knocking out a pies player was a defining moment.

    Commentary will be pies were banged up and the schedule was getting to them but I don’t care. Anytime we [censored] the pies it’s a good thing.

    No where near that yet, but we are definitely getting back to our 2018 form.

    Its one week at a time. Doggies game huge next week.

    We've beaten three depleted teams in a row

    Granted, we won and won well as we should have - which is better than losing

    But let's wait until we replicate this a few times against better sides before we get carried away

    Should be another comfortable win if we take in our current form. 

      The Dogs are no good,  its a joke how hyped they were in the preseason. They're soft as.

    OK, I just want to get this out first.  Preuss did a great job.  His first game for the season coming up against one of the big AA rucks and while he didn't break even he certainly put in a good contest.  24 Hitouts to 35 and 12 disposals to 15.  That's a really good game against Grundy, especially keeping his disposals down.

    I know the last 3 games have been against teams coming off 4 day breaks but we have done exactly what we should have and absolutely torn them a new one. Continue on this path lads and continue the awesome connection into our F50 in the coming weeks.

    Go you mighty fu#$*&@ Demons.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Essendon

      It’s Pink Lady night at Princes Park — a vibey Friday evening setting for a high-stakes clash between second-placed Melbourne and eleventh-placed Essendon. The wind-sheltered IKON Park, a favourite ground of the Demon players, promises flair, fire and a touch of pink. Melbourne has never lost a home-and-away game here, though the ghosts of two straight-sets finals exits in 2023 still linger.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 1 Steven May 

      The premiership defender has shown signs of wear and tear due to age, and his 2025 season was inconsistent, ending poorly with a suspension and a noticeable decline in performance. The Demons are eager to integrate younger players onto their list and have indicated that they may not be able to guarantee him senior games next season, in what would be the final year of his contract.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 2 Jacob van Rooyen

      The young key tall failed to make progress during the season, with a decline in his goal kicking output. His secondary role as a backup ruckman, which may have hindered his ability to further develop his game, and he was also impacted by the team's poor forward connection. It will be interesting to observe his performance under a new coaching regime.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #3 Christian Salem   

      Salem proved to be a valuable contributor as a reliable and solid one-on-one medium-sized defender in what was undoubtedly his most impressive season since the premiership year. He remains a highly capable rebounding option for the Demons as he approaches his 200th game at the club.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

      Following an injury-interrupted start to the season, McVee struggled to maintain the standard he established in 2025 as he pursued an expanded role within the team structure. He remained a firm fan favourite and the club had hoped to negotiate a new contract with the former rookie selection from Western Australia, whose partner, Lily Johnson, plays for Melbourne's AFLW side. Those hopes were dashed when he expressed his desire to return to his home state and play for Fremantle. Like all players who have worn the red and blue and are leaving this year, we wish him well in the future.
