Bizarre thing to say considering 2013 was of the worst display of football i have seen from a footy club in my time supporting Melbourne.

Yes we were ? Are you comparing MFC 2013 to top end draft picks and a whole draft system that was completely dedicated to setting a whole club up to the scraps we were left with?

You can't be serious DD.

Pea heart performance.

All over.

Nothing is lining up our way. Essendon a huge chance to knock us off tomorrow anyway.

Cheer up 'dazz'...I reckon we should take EFC.

...and at least then we're in it for another day.

And another door closes

As I always say...

When one door closes,another door closes.

Behind everry cloud,theres a massive storm ready to destroy everything.

 


Regardless of tonight’s result, I’ve already assumed the position, with hands behind my head, for the club to kick me in the balls one last time tomorrow.

edit - until round one next year.

Wow hasn't the giants season turned into a flop. They have gone from runners up to nothing really. 

The Giants were built on the model of skilled corridor attack.

Zoned ultra defences killed the beautiful beast

 

 

What’s worse...

1. Playing in the GF in 2019 then dropping to 10, OR

2. Finishing 17th in 2019, then rising to 9th..?

?

Think they need $’s now not later. Aints members outweigh GWS. The crowd tonight is heavily favoured towards the aints

Given that the finals are in Queensland, how is the Aints having a greater number of members than GWS going to create more $$ for the AFL? You do realise that channel 7 is playing fake crowd noise? Even if some of the noise was real, a small number of loud voices can make a lot of noise in an empty stadium. And finally, HQ needs GWS to do well for its TV ratings in NSW, which do have some small significance for the AFL's financial future.


You know it is guaranteed now that we lost tomorrow and then the dogs lose on Sunday. 

At least this game eliminates the possibility of us missing out on finals by 0.1% again

Its just that kind of game we'd typically dropped.

Just another wasted season could be pulling the trigger early but the usual script of failure of the mfc on display for another season

Nothing would surprise but touch wood, we have gotten better at these games.

No excuses, we've had a reasonable break.

Yep & the dogs lose on Sunday ... 

To everyone here on Demonland. We were lucky we played GWS at the right time when they are playing poorly. We were scheduled to play GWS 2nd round. Day before we played Essendon game gets cancelled. We are playing against Essendon at the right time. There is still hope for us. We need more luck to go our way. Time will tell

Have we?? Should have sewn up a win either against the Swans or Freo. Do that and we'd be having a week off next week. Instead we find ourselves in the same position as 3 years ago in 2017.

We haven't gotten better. After the St Kilda game I really thought we had turn the corner. But again we find ourselves in a position where it's another year gone down the drain due to just butchering games we're suppose to win.


Even in the unlikely event that the Dogs lose, do we really want to play the Eagles in Perth? Not me.

Love ur spirit .. we blew it, the saints have shown & dogs will what good teams do when the opportunity is to win games to play finals .. We get over inflated heads with weak leadership & suspect coach who can’t fix the same issues!

Wimp...

Well that didn't work out according to plan lol. At least we're not GWS for the next 15 hours. Go Dees!

  • The Clayton Oliver Thread

    Melbourne have held talks with Clayton Oliver and they’ve laid out where he fits in under Steve King’s vision and been frank about expectations. Oliver is still under contract for five years, but the door is open if he wants to explore his options elsewhere.

  • 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.

      • Thanks

  • 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.
