Yep. We're just one good preseason away.

    And there’ll always be next year.

    I love Gawn and I know these garbage articles are just fodder for the media and have to be done.

    But Jesus if my eyes could roll out of head while I read the same thing each pre-season, I would have gone blind years ago.

    Agree, I see a heading like that and no mater what content is in the article all I read is Blah, Blah, Blah, Blah.  I know we need content on our website and we will see many over the next 4 months, hopefully come March April we can see something to be really excited about

    Your reaction is the same as most Dees supporters.

    The trouble with those words is they sound very hollow because they have never been backed up by deeds.

    I would prefer if the messaging was different. Acknowledge past failures and shortcomings. Say we’ll let our footy do the talking when the season rolls around. Something other than the usual guff. I find it a little insulting tbh.

    Yes its fluff but I do question the value of these pieces and why they have to be published at all.

    Yeah agree, I’d actually prefer it if the club kept a bit quiet and Max just said, hopefully our actions will speak loader than words 

    Leave it at that

    I'd be happy for the club to can all the shop talk until March then drop a new documentary. Until then Max could talk about something he has a better handle on like jaffles or coffee.

    Signal in the red flags.

    The media knows exactly which club (clubs) to get outlandish delusional quotes from.

    We are the gift that keeps on giving this time of year.

    This was said to me 30 years 'Object oriented design is the way of the future and has been so for the last 10 years'.

    Not quite sure why I am sharing that.

    Anyway could I just say that I have been ready for success since 1965.  I think the team is too and if they dont get it they will go elsewhere.

    This is talking the house down in preparation for training the house down. It's like a pre-season for pre-season.

     

    Actions, Max. We're not interested in any words, unless they involve me winning Tattslotto.

    I'm glad he's positive, and he should be as there are some guys that can seriously play in our team. Time to make something of it.

    Christ this club just can’t help itself. It loves to talk and that’s about it.

    How about shutting up and just getting to work?

    • 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.

    • 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.
