    Incredible win by May and Trac! Well done lads, ice up and look to carry the team next week.

    What a breath of fresh air on the after game show too...

    Word just in May has been charged with regicide after tonight's performance.

    May saved it. 

    Trac won it.

    Oliver rose when it mattered in the last. 

    Unusual to see us win when we don’t have control of playing our way.

    That was a true grinding win.

    Good tough win under pressure against a side above us on the ladder, and we didn’t really play our best, but showed real grit.

    My nerves were on end, what a relief!

    May and Trac were outstanding.

    It was nerve racking but geeze we sure looked composed in the last 5 minutes 

    Umpire should have paid a free against Saints player holding the ball. It was effing blatant.

    We just beat a top 4 contender with about 8 passengers.

    That could define our season.

    We need to drop the passengers off at the next stop and pick up their replacements - Fritter and co.

    Game plan wasn't helter skelter

    Game plan was the same as it has been for weeks. We just implemented it.

    Narrow grounds help.

    I seriously thought Clarry had money on saints he was turning it over so much in the 3rd. 

    Absolutely stoked with the win. Gutted because out of anger from last week I tipped against us.

    Off to Cazaly. I think we're undefeated there.

    Some moron commentator ( don’t know his name, don’t care) on ABC radio is talking about the heat and the humidity - currently 17C and 15% humidity.

    Must have his head somewhere warm and dark.

    Don't want to hear another word about the trade for May, i think his performances over the season and especially tonight have justified the pick 6.

    A trade special.

    And increased our leadership stocks big time.

    The nerve of the umpire to call Brown’s kick at the end not 15 metres.

    Yep that was 25 metres easy

    My heart has only just stabilised.

    Huge win. Steven May is becoming one of the best recruits we've had for an eternity. 

    Credit to Goody,  we stopped their run,  exactly what we all asked for and it won us the game.

    Hoohar!!!

    I don't know how we won that.

    Actually I do. Goodwin. We completely outcoached the Saints tonight, took away their one wood and they had nothing else. If we lost it was going to be because the killed us on the outside, Butler, Hill, Kent, Billings etc None of those guys had much influence tonight, we set up extremely well defensively and shut them down.

    Petracca is a gun, hopefully it's eating the Saints supporters tonight seeing him kick 4 including what proved to be the matchwinner

    Hibbered in the last 1 minute of the game saved us with a game saving tackle.

    That's as courageous as it gets after looking like he wouldn't come back on.

    • GAMEDAY: Richmond

      It's Game Day and the Demons return to the MCG to face the Tigers in their annual Blockbuster on ANZAC Eve for the 10th time. The Dees will be desperate to reignite their stuttering 2025 campaign and claim just their second win of the season. Can the Demons dig deep and find that ANZAC Spirit to snatch back to back wins?

    • PREVIEW: Richmond

      A few years ago, the Melbourne Football Club produced a documentary about the decade in which it rose from its dystopic purgatory of regular thrashings to the euphoria of a premiership victory. That entire period could have been compressed in a fast motion version of the 2025 season to date as the Demons went from embarrassing basket case to glorious winner in an unexpected victory over the Dockers last Saturday. They transformed in a single week from a team that put in a pedestrian effort of predictably kicking the ball long down the line into attack that made a very ordinary Bombers outfit look like worldbeaters into a slick, fast moving side with urgency and a willingness to handball and create play with shorter kicks and by changing angles to generate an element of chaos that yielded six goals in each of the opening quarters against Freo.

    • NON-MFC: Round 07

      Round 7 gets underway in iconic fashion with the traditional ANZAC Day blockbuster. The high-flying Magpies will be looking to solidify their spot atop the ladder, while the Bombers are desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top eight. Later that evening, Fremantle will be out to redeem themselves after a disappointing loss to the Demons, facing a hungry Adelaide side with eyes firmly set on breaking into the top four. Saturday serves up a triple-header of footy action. The Lions will be looking to consolidate their Top 2 spot as they head to Marvel Stadium to clash with the Saints. Over in Adelaide, Port Adelaide will be strong favourites at home against a struggling North Melbourne. The day wraps up with a fiery encounter in Canberra, where the Giants and Bulldogs renew their bitter rivalry. Sunday’s schedule kicks off with the Suns aiming to bounce back from their shock defeat to Richmond, taking on the out of form Swans.Then the Blues will be out to claim a major scalp when they battle the Cats at the MCG. The round finishes with a less-than-thrilling affair between Hawthorn and West Coast at Marvel. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • REPORT: Fremantle

      For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

    • CASEY: UWS Giants

      The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

    • PREGAME: Richmond

      The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?
