    Good play by Hunt to Chandler and tough mark to Anb.

    Goal. We're in front.

    Not having a full strength team will hold us in good stead going forward. In previous seasons (correct me if I'm wrong) we've fielded almost full strength sides from the get - go.

    At work and popped onto the game day thread for an update- honestly thought we must be 10 goals down.

    It’s not a Melbourne game without a Bruce goal ?

     

    We put some actual players in the center and suddenly we aren’t the worst. What a shock.

    Tbh early on we should have been. They have hit the post 4 times. We had just kicked 3 in a row.

    Geez, Hunt standing 5 metres off Bont who takes a handball and kicks into f50 for a mark and goal again.

     


    Bruce legitimately thanked the umpire after he kicked the goal.

    I cant believe that G.Lyon was invited to speak at a MFC supporters night. he is the most negative pr!!k going.

    And Rivers kick is deliberate but that [censored] against Spargo was not. Good to see the umpires still sucks.

    Thank God for Lever and May.

    With players like Jones and Tmac still around its a worry.

    Not sure what Tomlison brings and poor Jetta seems a shadow of the champion he was.

    Harmes needs to step up in the absence of others but has not been great. ANB likewise.

     

    Jetta is another. A fine servant who should have retired at the end of last Season

    they are outplaying us, dogs should be a mile in front. Good taste of footy for the kids 

     

    We are definitely playing boys against men. The Dogs are an excellent team. They are some genuine stars. Our defense has stood up well, but our midfield has struggled and the less said about our forwards the better. Fritsch and ANB the only two who should play round 1. TMac somehow has done less than usual. 

    Happy with that quarter and the effort was much better.

    For a club like ours to be quite depleted as we are, we certainly are putting I some good work.

    • PREGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

      With their season all over bar the shouting the Demons head back on the road for the third week in a row as they return to Adelaide to take on the Crows. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Gold Coast

      The Demons did not come to play from the opening bounce and let the Gold Coast kick the first 5 goals of the match. They then outscored the Suns for the next 3 quarters but it was too little too late and their season is now effectively over.

    • GAMEDAY: Rd 16 vs Gold Coast

      It's Game Day and the Demons are back on the road again and this may be the last roll of the dice to get their 2025 season back on track as they take on the Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium.

    • PREVIEW: Gold Coast

      The Gold Coast Suns find themselves outside of the top eight for the first time since Round 1 with pressure is mounting on the entire organisation. Their coach Damien Hardwick expressed his frustration at his team’s condition last week by making a middle-finger gesture on television that earned him a fine for his troubles. He showed his desperation by claiming that Fox should pick up the tab.  There’s little doubt the Suns have shown improvement in 2025, and their position on the ladder is influenced to some extent by having played fewer games than their rivals for a playoff role at the end of the season, courtesy of the disruption caused by Cyclone Alfred in March.  However, they are following the same trajectory that hindered the club in past years whenever they appeared to be nearing their potential. As a consequence, that Hardwick gesture should be considered as more than a mere behavioral lapse. It’s a distress signal that does not bode well for the Queenslanders. While the Suns are eager to remain in contention with the top eight, Melbourne faces its own crisis, which is similarly deep-seated but in a much different way. After recovering from a disappointing start to the season and nearing a return to respectability among its peer clubs, the Demons have experienced a decline in status, driven by the fact that while their form has been reasonable (see their performance against the ladder leader in the Kings Birthday match), their conversion in front of goal is poor enough to rank last in the competition. Furthermore, their opponents find them exceptionally easy to score against. As a result, they have effectively eliminated themselves from the finals race and are again positioned to finish in the bottom half of the ladder.

    • NON-MFC: Round 15

      As the Demons head into their Bye Round, it's time to turn our attention to the other matches being played. Which teams are you tipping this week? And which results would be most favourable for the Demons if we can manage to turn our season around?
