I thought we got there in 2005 briefly?

2004 lasted a massive 1 week

Yes after the 3 wins to kick off 2005, Cameron the Bruce 9 Brownlow votes.

Think it was for a day we were top not a complete round.

    So if we bring the same pressure we bought last week to the dogs game we should be able to win. 2 goals was all they kicked in that 2nd half. They absolutely crumbled.

    First on the ladder for two weeks in 2005. Rounds 2 and 3.

    In 2004 we were first after 18 rounds. The deepest in a season that we'd been first since 1964. All the talk was about us. I think we were briefly flag favourites. Then Adelaide pumped us by 12 goals. We lost 4 in a row to end the season and were knocked out in the finals by Essendon. The most Melbourne way to end a season ever.

    We have the premiership in the bag. Just sit back and enjoy. The Bulldogs couldn't even beat a Dustyless Tigers when we beat them convincingly.

    Me and my entire generation of fellow Melbourne supporters are probably more scarred by that month of football than any other in our lifetimes. I know I was for a long time. This year might wipe it away.

    Dogs midfield is amazing but not sure how far they will go with their KPP. 

    Amazing midfields won't win you finals. Their defence is make shift no presents whatsoever.

    Forward line is non functional, they are weak they are an outside running, bruise free, indoor sports type operation.

    Doggies should be booking the Hotham chalets because,boy have they got some downhill skiers in that team. Daniel McCrea, Bruce Schacke, Treloar - put them under pressure and out come the poles

    Nearly forgot Smith. Bet Naughton doesn’t get a clear run at the ball against us either.

    Yep i recall going to the match where we got there at the G with a crazy Demon supporter from my kids school (a rare random Demon supporter at that point).

    Was it against the Blues?  I know i was sitting up the top of southern stand flank and seem to recall  Neita went alright.  Random Demon friend literally cried in disbelief after the final siren and the AFL ladder went up on the big screen.

    Then i cried every week for the next 5!

    Sure did.  Would you believe they also showed the one with Cotchin and put it in a small screen as the live coverage was showing Cotchin also during the quarter time break!  Ground breaking stuff from AAMI & 7 ?

    I barely noticed Hannan. 

    Wasn't watching every moment but i didn't notice him at all till about 5 minutes in to the third.  Was he sub?  Appeared to miss the first half but might have been super quiet also.

In advance of Season 10, the AFL leadership has engaged in candid discussions with all clubs regarding strategies to boost attendance and expand fan bases. Concerningly, average attendances in 2024 were 2,660 fans per match, with the women’s game incurring an annual loss of approximately $50 million.

    • 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.
