I can’t help but like Mitch Hannan. Always seemed like a good bloke but he wouldn’t be in our best 22 now

Will always love Mitch Hannan.

    That bloke who runs the "Number of Days since Essendon last won a final" account is still in a job

    Mitch Hannan. Still doing the right thing by Melbourne.

    Still kicking "winning goals" in finals when in reality the game was already won. Fight me but the Jones goal was the winning goal in 2018, not the Hannan goal.

    Fair enough too, even if he’s basically a front-runner.

    Watching this match is a reminder of the extent of my hatred of Essendon. It surpasses all.

    No argument but he's rubbing salt into the EFC wounds which just makes this weekend that little bit more sweet.

    It’s weird, isn’t it? Just an irrational hatred - Jake Stringer front and centre!

    It is. I loathe them. The genesis being 2000.

    Dear oh dear. These poor Essendon boys haven't scored a goal this half. How upsetting. And they timed their run to the finals so nicely too.

    It's very, very sad MR. I may even venture across to the Dustin Fletcher Hangar to 'commiserate'. I'm a sad, sad man.

    You know you have a good leap when you jump so high your shoe falls off.

    Naughton is a ripper.

    • 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.
