I honestly wouldn’t be surprised if we got rolled on Friday night. The GC game was really taxing and Max Gawn admitted it so. 6 day break makes it tough.

I won’t lose any sleep over an upset. We have won 9 games in a row, and we all know how long the season is.

Let's see how good our conditioning is post-Burgo then

    Puck that. Would rather drop the one against Port next week, than lose to this Scum.

    Can you imagine how [censored]-a-hoop the Bummers supporters would be if they got over the line against us? We owe it to the entire football world not to allow this.

    Given the sensitivity of the auto-censor, I'm quite surprised your nickname for Essendon got through unscathed.

    Mind you, if the Essendon equivalent of Demonland is equally as sensitive, it must drive them absolutely nuts every time they want to discuss arguably their best player ever in [censored] Reynolds.

    When we were rubbish we got smashed by the media weekly but didn't help us win....totally overrated as a motivator and a factor in who wins or loses!

    HERE YA GO DEMONLANDERS...... ENJOY LATEST FROM INJECTIONDON LAND

    1 We should have picked Oliver!

     2 My smoke alarm battery has just started beeping. The night has gone from bad to worse.

     

     3 Brayshaw 20 marks is embarrassing

     4 Their mids ran circles around is all night.

     5 Parish has lost his hunger.

     

     6 They are clearly the better side

    Their polish ball in hand miles ahead of us.

    66 inside 50’s their way to our 39. The fact we remained in touch despite the weight of ball they had fwd prob wouldn’t happen too often.

    Their mids flogged us really for possessions. Winning at the contest and using it far better around the ground. 30+ from both their wingers who are gut running machines both offensively and defensively

    Another random observation.

    Langdon time on ground 100%.
    For 30+ touches, a freak goal that ended us, and a zillion kms ran.

    We need to get fitter if we are going to get to that top echelon.

    Theirs
    Petracca 92%
    Oliver 88%
    Brayshaw 87%
    Viney 74%

    And Rutten says :- " But we have played three of last years finalists already"  Drrrr  And your point ?

    at one point in the third quarter this game was like that time when the Washington Generals scored a goal against the Harlem Globetrotters.

     

    To have a player like Oliver must be a luxury... Refuses to lose a contest.

     

    Our skills are deplorable. Our players are dumbasses. We have no structure. Our #1 ruckman offers nothing around the ground.  We're not getting much out of this season. At least I don't have to care anymore. Go Dons.

     

    we were absolutely woeful, and at no point did we really look like a real threat at all. we don’t run, lead or chase. We get out bodied all the time and most of our positive ball movement was a result of a Demon’s mistake or a lucky bounce. the scoreboard flattered us enormously. 

     

    In fairness I'd say that when we got that goal in front Melbourne's mids, and Oliver in particular , turned the wick right up and a few of our players , not necessarily mids, were found wanting under the blowtorch.

     

    McGrath finds his best role which is when he doesn't have the footy. What a waste of a number 1 pick

     

    i don't know about you guys but i'm going to stop thinking about this game and go have a squiz at the port board

    I liked this one the best.

    Melbourne’s wings make everyone’s half backs look stupid. They close down space really well

    • 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.

    • 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.
