    Shouldn't have even been paid. 

    Look again

    I can get quite used to the Dees being top of the ladder a game and percentage clear

    heading to the finals two years in a row, that’s fantastic 

    Go Dees. We are a real chance for B2B

    And this is after 3 weeks of coming back to the field, after looking like Phar Lapping everyone.

    Hope we can get everything sorted in the back half of the year and begin moving like the tremendous machine we were at the end of 2021.

    Not sure about that yet. Next month has some massive tests and with that logjam in the top 4 things could change very quickly. Appreciate the optimism though.

    It’s trippy isn’t it. We could finish anywhere in the top 8. We’re top, a game and % clear after 15 games, but zero feelings of certainty in 22.

    Tigers to contest suspension for Vlastuin.

    They should, as he only smashed the young kid in the face with a forearm, behind play.

    It just stuns me that he gets a week and challenges and has form I think and Chandler, with no form, copped two for a legal tackle in play, that only went wrong when the victim hit his head. Not a bump to the head, but a legal tackle in play and then the accidental result.

    The whole system is a joke and again the big clubs fight everything.

    I would give 3 weeks at the tribunal, for the Tigers being idiots and it being a dangerous blow behind play.

    • 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.
