Wow losing to Dogs put our form into perspective. Dogs a putrid today. It amazing how some teams lift against us.

We are everyone's Grand Final this year.

Something that amuses me immensely at the moment is how sensitive Pies fans are when someone says they won't win the flag.

    Only team that did not have a crack this year was Gold coast. Every other team did the homework on us.

    When he just calls it normally he's ok but when he rambles it's annoying

    There is merit to this.

    It's very cop-out-y, but how many sides have turned it on for their game against us despite being out of form?

    Fremantle had lost two straight before beating us.

    Sydney beat us in the middle of a streak of 4-5.

    If they lose tonight, the Dogs will have beaten us in a stretch of 2-4, with the only other win a horribly out of form St Kilda.

    Adelaide fired right up against us, as did North, as did Hawthorn earlier in the year.

    Do we care who wins from a Melbourne point of view? Can’t be bothered working it out

    If you want us to finish top 4, you want the Dogs to win. A Dogs win means we just need to beat Carlton to finish above Fremantle. 

    If you're worried about us slipping out of the top 4 and meeting the Dogs in a final, you want Fremantle to win. Makes the Dogs' path to September very hard.

    Will it actually matter tu?

    When Ugle Hagen missed that sitter in front I thought typical. Against us he kicked that goal from the boundary outside 50 that he pulled from his backside and couldn't miss anything that night.

    I knew he wouldn't do anything good after our game

    Tim English takes on 3, has it knocked out in the tackle, ump says play on as knocked out in tackle. Has the rule changed since last night?

    Well just seeing the Bulldogs coach on the bench then has cheered me up a bit.

    • 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.
