Surely even Richmond fans would be a little circumspect about this win. West Coast are taking the wizz with their effort here.

I just watched Nankervis, the slowest human on the planet, just jog to an open goal, only to give a Joe the Goose to Riewoldt. Anyone gonna defend, or…?

They are Richmond fans ! I doubt they would  know circumspect from circumcision !!!

Eagles are tanking and will try to get their dirty mitts on English or Jackson by low balling their club with the threat of the pre season draft. 
Luckily I can’t see Jackson going from the premiers to the wooden spooners. 

Tim English is easily the best young talent in the league. He’s absolutely worth multiple first round picks. Eagles should chase him super hard. He’s a generational talent that could change the game forever.

Jackson makes more sense for them. Their rebuild will be long and times hard. English ain’t their man, they should chase Jackson. No doubt they’ll need to throw everything and the kitchen sink at him to get there, but they should try. Good for them and us, either way for us - we are win/win. That’s just the nature of the beast. Jackson may have 2 flags under his belt by seasons end, and decide he’s content, let’s move home, completely cash out, and be part of a rebuild. Or he decides to be part of probably one of the most successful teams ever to play the game, and be well paid, whilst still playing with close mates, in a state the breathes footy. It’s probably 70/30 our way I’d think.

I think you missed my point. English, English, English! 🤣

This game stinks. Can't believe I tipped West Coast, I'm going home. Since I'm already home I'm going to do something else.

Same here Layzie. Picked them thinking Tigers having a 5 day turnaround, flying to Perth with still some older guys it would be the chance for WC to sneak a win. How Stupid!

So watching this game tonight. Are Melbourne just that good or are the Eagles just that bad.

We are that good. Eagles are also terrible. Richmond are still Richmond. Still well drilled and still play to a plan, well structured. Essendon have looked decent since we played them and they put a show till late.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 17 vs West Coast

    It’s game day and the Demons return to Melbourne to play the Eagles at the MCG for the first time in over a decade. A win keeps the Dees finals hopes alive whereas a loss will almost certainly slam the finals window shut.

    CROSSROADS by The Oracle

    Melbourne stands at the crossroads.  Sunday’s game against the West Coast Eagles who have not met the Demons at the MCG in more than ten years, is a make or break for the club’s finals aspirations.  That proposition is self-evident since every other team the club will be opposed to over the next eight weeks of footy is a prospective 2024 finalist. To add to this perspective is the fact that while the Demons are now in twelfth position on the AFL table, they are only a game and a half b

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well

    POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Brisbane

    The Demons once again went goalless in the last quarter and were run down by the Lions at the Gabba in the final minutes of the match ultimately losing the game by 5 points as their percentage dips below 100 for the first time since 2020.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 16 vs Brisbane

    It's Game Day and the Dees are deep in the heart of enemy territory as they take on the Lions in Brisbane under the Friday Night Lights at the Gabba. Will the Demon finally be awakened and the season get back on track or will they meekly be sacrificed like lambs to the slaughter?
