Well the good news out of today is that it's now not possible for the Demons to finish lower than 6th.

    Just FFS keep winning and we will be top 2.

    So sick of depending on other results - have put up with this for nigh on 60 years.

    Was just a statement of fact Mono, not a wish!

    Hawks may do us a favour. Would be a perfect Sunday if top 4 was close to locked in

    Hawthorn leading Brisbane by 30 halfway through the second.

    Remember, if Brisbane lose even once for the rest of the year, we only need one more win to ensure they cannot pass us.

    So if they drop this game and Essendon can get up over Sydney (I can't see either happening but still), then one more win will lock us into top 4.

    Hawks are a real chance in this game. Playing well and managed to hold their quarter time lead kicking into the breeze. the Lions have their work cut out for them in the 2nd half

    Not a bad effort, six minutes into the game and already TWSNBN getting frees no other team gets. Illegal disposal decisions, favourable angle kicking for goal.You name it they get it.

    Hawthorn, Essendon and Giants wins would be nice to round out the weekend.

    Hawthorn 6 goals up middle of the 3rd qtr is huge for our top 4 chances.

    Lions have lost to 10th, 13th and now down by 40 to 17th in the last four weeks. What a funny game football is.

    Lol, not even a crowd a the game and Essendon supporters still going berserk.

    I checked in on twitter just now and 'Razor Ray' has been trending for the last 30 minutes and it is just Essendon supporters telling him to 'eat a D', 'Gagf', 'and his mother', etc etc etc.

    Hilarious.

    It suits Melbourne for Essendon to win, but I hope it only happens because of a really bad free kick in the dying seconds. That'll confuse them.

    Not quite. Need the Swans to lose as well. If they do we'll be 2.5 games clear in Top 4

    They beat us by showing pride and being more desperate to win than we were. Something we really have never done against a top team when we've been down the bottom. 

    How they are winning any games with their deplorable list is beyond me. Just an out and out competitive culture. We should still be aspiring to become as good a club as they are.

    • REPORT: West Coast

      On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      Following a disastrous 0–5 start to the season, the Demons have now made it three wins in a row, cruising past a lacklustre West Coast side on their own turf. Skipper Max Gawn was once again at his dominant best, delivering another ruck masterclass to lead the way.

    • GAMEDAY: West Coast

      It's Game Day and the Demons have a chance to notch up their third consecutive win — something they haven’t done since Round 5, 2024. But to do it, they’ll need to exorcise the Demons of last year’s disastrous trip out West. Can the Dees continue their momentum, right the wrongs of that fateful clash, and take another step up the ladder on the road to redemption?
