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.

    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.

    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

    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.

    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.

    • REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      The next coach of the Melbourne Football Club faces the challenge of teaching his players how to win games against all comers. At times during this tumultuous season, that task has seemed daunting, made more so in light of the surprise news last week of the sacking of premiership coach Simon Goodwin. However, there were also some positive signs from yesterday’s match against the Western Bulldogs that the challenge may not be as difficult as one might think. The two sides presented a genuine football spectacle, featuring pulsating competitive play with eight lead changes throughout the afternoon, in a display befitting a finals match.The result could have gone either way and in the end, it came down to which team could produce the most desperate of acts to provide a winning result. It was the Bulldogs who had their season on the line that won out by a six point margin that fitted the game and the effort of both sides.

    • CASEY: Brisbane

      The rain had been falling heavily in south east Queensland when the match began at Springfield, west of Brisbane. The teams exchanged early goals and then the Casey Demons proceeded like a house on fire in the penultimate game of the VFL season against a strong opponent in the Brisbane Lions. Sparked by strong play around the ground by seasoned players in Charlie Spargo and Jack Billings, a strong effort from Bailey Laurie and promising work from youngsters in Kynan Brown and  Koltyn Tholstrup, the Demons with multiple goal kickers firing, raced to a 27 point lead late in the opening stanza. A highlight was a wonderful goal from Laurie who brilliantly sidestepped two opponents and kicked beautifully from 45 metres out.

      The Demons return to the MCG this time as the visiting team where they get another opportunity to put a dent into a team's top 8 placing when they take on the Hawks on Saturday afternoon. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Western Bulldogs

      The Demons lacked some polish but showed a lot of heart and took it right up to the Bulldogs in an attempt to spoil their finals hopes ultimately going down by a goal at the MCG.
