It’s a tradition that costs you bugger all too put on

Pathetic

And Tomorrow you shove BT and James Brayshaw down our throats….

They would probably show replays of 88 and 2000...over and over again.

    Rugby League is on 92

    Always good for a brain dead, mind numbing, zero care, sports hit

    A simple game for simple blokes.

    Watching my first game of the year to see if Wayne Bennett can get the Rabbitohs into the granny.

    71 year old who's coached at the highest level for 30 odd years I think.

    Amazing achievement

    I see enough replays of those games in my head.

    Got a bit jumpy after watching training this arvo so I settled myself by watching Jaka & Ox highlights. How good were those blokes. 

    I've also got the Robbie Tawny Port but I suspect the contents have aged worse than I have. If we get up tomorrow I might just leave it in its nice presentation case and build a shrine around it.

    My best grand final memories as a kid involve staying up to watch that marathon. Having guys like Jezza and KB coming into your subconscious if you were falling asleep. Great memories. 

    With the game on so late tomorrow night I plan on getting a real good night sleep because there's no way I'll get any tomorrow night regardless of what happens. And that plan is not going to work out anyway.

    Legendary thread.

    Footy in the late 80s hey… wow, some of you remember that better in your head movies - that’s rough viewing.

    That WCE Elimination Final in 88 is nuts.

    one of the best half back flankers we've had, certainly in my 36 or so years of being a demon

    his tag-team job on diesel williams with andrew obst in 94 was one of the all time great surprise coaching moves

    • PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      With both sides precariously positioned ahead of the run home to the finals, only one team involved in Sunday’s clash at the Adelaide Oval between the Power and the Demons will remain a contender when it’s over.  On current form, that one team has to be Melbourne which narrowly missed out on defeating the competition’s power house Collingwood on King's Birthday and also recently overpowered both 2024 Grand Finalists. Conversely, Port Adelaide snapped out of a four-game losing streak with a win against the Giants in Canberra. Although they will be rejuvenated following that victory, their performances during that run of losses were sub par and resulted in some embarrassing blow out defeats.

    • NON-MFC: Round 14

      Round 14 is upon us and there's plenty at stake across the rest of the competition. As Melbourne heads to Adelaide, it's time to turn our attention to the other matches of the Round. Which teams are you tipping this week? And which results would be most favourable for the Demons’ finals tilt?

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

    • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

      The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Collingwood

      Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.
