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.

Lets just win tomorrow regardless and go down in a blaze of sour grapes.

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!

  • REPORT: West Coast

    On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

  • POSTGAME: West Coast

    Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.

  • GAMEDAY: West Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons have a chance to notch up their third consecutive win — something they haven’t done since Round 5, 2024. But to do it, they’ll need to exorcise the Demons of last year’s disastrous trip out West. Can the Dees continue their momentum, right the wrongs of that fateful clash, and take another step up the ladder on the road to redemption?
