In the MCC reserve. More Bar Staff than people. Pity a few of them aren’t cooking schnitzels or preparing Cheese Boards!

    We might crack 30K

    where are all our members??

    Will it shock anyone if I say that I think we've been in only 'adequate' form so far this season? It feels more like the last few games of our big run of wins last year, rather than either of our dominant peaks. To be sure, it is a whole thrill of its own to be winning solidly when off our best, but I'm slightly impatient to see us really turn it on at least once. Just for recreational reasons I'd like to see 120mins of football at the level of the last 40mins of 2021!

    I'm not sure GWS are even worthy of being thrashed so historically, so I guess I'll keep my focus on maintaining the defensive rigor up to standard.

    Wins are wins and Bowey still needs 17 more to break the record run.

    Away probably. School holidays & it's Easter. I'd be happy to see 20k.

    Even Robbo has taken the night off

    Crowds looking a bit better. Members down the bottom has a decent crowd & next door & around behind the goals has a good capacity on the other side not so much.

    Saints got 18k, would hate to be less Than that. Haven’t seen the members this empty in a long time, must all be in Mornington.

    Let's go Dees. Can't be there tonight down in Dromana but watching on!

    Watching from just north of Lismore with a very good value red in hand (ooops, de rigeur). A win, with Paris Roubaix tomorrow then first family holiday in 3 years on the Sunny Coast from tues so a win a good start  plees Dees

    • 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.
