  • Demonland changed the title to Days Since Last Loss
 

Every day that passes is another day closer to our next loss.
Luckily the same can be said for Richmond.

 

6072   - Days since Essendon last won a final

Not relevant to this thread but it just makes me happy

Should be a part of every football conversation, really.

 

The best time to delete this post was immediately after posting it.

The second best time is now.

 

100% we lose on Saturday now.

(I do love the stat though. When was the last time Melbourne had the longest gap to its most recent loss?)

The doggies beat us in preseason. Caused a fair amount of angst and wrist slitting on DL as I recall.

I remember watching this game on a Monday night during a strict lockdown with an 8pm curfew and Dwayne Russell commentating.

Living the dream....

Our mission is to avoid the dreaded 21,000.

Gaaahhhh that is worse than Nat Jones games won vs lost record!

Oh my god. 21,000 would be sooo embarrassing 

I wonder what the longest days between AFL losses is.

Geelong won 23 games between Rd 12, 1952 and Rd 13, 1953 which spanned 378 days. 

However they also did not lose a game between Rd 9, 1952 and Rd 13, 1953 which spanned 399 days because they drew Rd 11, 1952. 

I’m not sure if we can count clubs that didn’t field teams during war years that may have won the last match they competed in before disbanding and then returning.

Not after a loss, surely not?

  • 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.
