Hawks have been tanking for at least a month now.  I have gone right off Clarkson as next coach of the MFC.

Nah they are just crap, and long may it stay that way

    Or especially skills

    It's about skills

    Skills look better when it is dry, can't be no skills one week then good skills the next week, play freeo and Sydney at the Gabba and we win both games.

    Just love that!  Big slap down to those entitled cheats.

    Thrashing them next week will be a delightful end to our year; not a substitute for finals but a good consolation prize.

    This "little person" mindset just proves that Worsfold never was a true Essendon man

    Their succession plan is going a treat so far! ?

    have to think he is trying to make excuses for his performance though. 16 years without a finals win, any club would not be happy with that.

    Thats hilarious.  Not even we went that long without a finals win when we finally broke the drought in 2018.

    Essendon are an irrelevant club.

    I try to add this in to every conversation I have. 
    I googled it just now and wrote “how long since” and ‘since Essendon won a final’ automatically came up! ?

    Hawthorn never cease to find a way to muck us up.

    Even when they are not playing them.

    It felt so good when the game was already decided to jump ship and support the dogs.

    Anyone know what Mumford got for the clothes-line on clarry?

    If the AFL is serious about concussion, he should get weeks for his supposed spoiling attempt where he just belted Gawn in the back of the head in I think the second quarter. Gawn was down for quite a while after it and Mumford was nowhere near the ball. 

    It's ridiculous how commentators just laugh at these punches to the head in a marking attempt. 'Making him earn it' rubbish. It is the accumulation of all those smaller hits that really add up, not just the ones where players get knocked out.

    I'd take an ageing Stratton over Chip or Frost anyday. No way it would have been Stratton's decision to retire

    Wouldn't go O'meara, doesnt strike me as leadership material.  they don't have many candidates... maybe Mitchell? he should be back to his best next year

    Agreed. he punch to Gawn should have been a fine.  blatently trying to get our best player out of the game

    results should have been out yesterday so I assume he got nothing

    The very week after we learned Danny Frawley had brain damage. Hilarious.

    • AFLW REPORT: Gold Coast

      The forecast said wind. The ladder said mismatch. The scoreboard said obliteration. Melbourne didn’t just beat Gold Coast — they dismantled them: 13.15 (93) to 0.6 (6). An 87-point obliteration, the Suns held goalless, and the Demons delivering their second-highest winning margin and third-highest score in AFLW history.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #28 Will Verrall

      It was a tough ask for him to break through as a 199cm ruckman in the shadow of an all-time great in that position who is also the club captain. He had some good days at Casey but was unable to progress and was delisted at the end of the season.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #29 Tom Campbell

      The 33-year-old Campbell has yet to play AFL football for Melbourne, but his Casey form has been strong and he has been retained as a ready-made ruck depth option who is widely regarded as someone who is excellent for the culture of the club.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #30 Harry Sharp 

      The Demons acquired an interesting player in Sharp, who narrowly missed securing a spot in the Lions’ premiership team last year. The 22-year-old medium forward played in the opening round this season and ended up with 18 senior games, although he was substituted in or out in for ten of those matches. He demonstrated glimpses of form, but ultimately ended the year on the margins of the team.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #31 Bayley Fritsch

      Worked his way back after a slow start and a further slump in form going into the midseason but became a solid contributor for the club in the latter half of 2025. Closing in on 300 goals for the club.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Gold Coast

      On Friday, the Demons return to our Casey Fields fortress where they have a 77% win rate. The scent of September is in the air and the struggling Suns are on the horizon. The Cranbourne weather forecast? Ominous, like the match itself: a strong chance of carnage. Let’s be honest, last week’s first half against the West Coast was a training drill but we dropped our guard in the final quarter. While this match is a mismatch on paper — second versus seventeenth — football is won in the wind, the contests, and the moments.
