Cats by 25.

Selwood may break the record for free kicks today. Conditions are made for his type of head ducker.

Looking forward to Viney smashing some old cat's bodies.

This is still one of my all time favourite photos.

An unforgetable moment in Selwood's career - tried to smart Rs and got treated simply as an aside.

Ya forgot Hawkins. It's a perfect day for him to take the forward dive as if he was pushed.

    Scott will play the keepings off game & hope we just don't start bombing it in hope

    Will be too difficult in these conditions. It’ll be a territory battle today. We need to smash them in clearances and contested possessions then lock it in our forward 50.

    We won our first 5 games in 1994...Let’s hope we can win today and keep the 2021 winning streak going!

    Parfitt out.

    That’s a big out on top of missing their other big mids. 

    No Parfitt

    No Dangerfield

    No Cameron

    No Rohan

    No Higgins

    they are off a 6 day break

    No excuses Demons. Hammer them

    Is this a strategic move?  I admit I know nothing about him, I tend to block out all things Geelong

    Stop Guthrie 

    Press up and hunt Duncan and Stewart getting easy touches behind the ball

    And we'll have a shot

    Wouldn't be, he's their best 2nd tier mid if that makes sense

    Hoping Petty is the sub. This is the sort of game  where Hawkins comes out early trying to get his knee up into May's kidneys. Need to keep an eye out for it.

    Also if we give away a couple of ducking frees on Selwood early, the next time he ducks just take his head off.

    Conditions are perfect for footy today

    No rain currently, blue skies from the south east, chill in the air...

    Feels like footy more so than round 1 did that’s for sure


    We are back at the G.

    For those seeing it there, enjoy and be the 23rd player.

    Angry, ruthless and effort for 4 quarters, put the bodies on the line and take our opportunities. 

    Give us a good game Dees, build your confidence and mine.

    Great opportunity for us to set our season and ladder position. 

    Go Dees.

    A win should turf Geelong out of the top 8.  Let's get it done and then belt them by 187 points at the cattery later in the year to stamp Scott's papers.

    Kozzy rocking the long sleeves!

    • PREVIEW: North Melbourne

      Can you believe it? After a long period of years over which Melbourne has dominated in matches against North Melbourne, the Demons are looking down the barrel at two defeats at the hands of the Kangaroos in the same season. And if that eventuates, it will come hot on the heels of an identical result against the Gold Coast Suns. How have the might fallen? There is a slight difference in that North Melbourne are not yet in the same place as Gold Coast. Like Melbourne, they are currently situated in the lower half of the ladder and though they did achieve a significant upset when the teams met earlier in the season, their subsequent form has been equally unimpressive and inconsistent.

    • REPORT: Adelaide

      The atmosphere at the Melbourne Football Club at the beginning of the season was aspirational following an injury-plagued year in 2024. Coach Simon Goodwin had lofty expectations with the return of key players, the anticipated improvement from a maturing group with a few years of experience under their belts, and some exceptional young talent also joining the ranks. All of that went by the wayside as the team failed to click into action early on. It rallied briefly with a new strategy but has fallen again with five more  consecutive defeats.

    • CASEY: Coburg

      The Casey Demons returned to their home ground which was once a graveyard for opposing teams but they managed to gift the four points on offer to Coburg with yet another of their trademark displays of inaccuracy in front of goals and some undisciplined football that earned the displeasure of the umpires late in the game. The home team was welcomed by a small crowd at Casey Fields and looked right at home as it dominated the first three quarters and led for all bar the last five minutes of the game. In the end, they came away with nothing, despite winning everywhere but on the scoreboard and the free kick count.

    • PREGAME: Rd 18 vs North Melbourne

      After four weeks on the road the Demons make their long awaited return to the MCG next Sunday to play in a classic late season dead rubber against the North Melbourne Kangaroos. Who comes in and who comes out?

    • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

      The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.
