What did Richo say? I have no sound 

Something happened with Petty…

Sounds like (likely) Zorko made overly personal comments about someone  from Petty's family.

Great win, but FFS Jaded and the others having a whinge about Brissy getting the last two goals have a good look at yourselves absolutely pathetic 

Wait until you see what Sydney come up with.

Bruise Free

Weve been playing finals since the Geelong game as Max said...

A week off now and Give Em Hell !

Is there a table somewhere that shows the scores we need in the St Kilda and Sydney game to hold on to second spot?

I doubt very much as a club we would be happy with conceding some soft goals in the last. 
I would hate to play Sydney at the SCG and so would the club. 

Leave it out. Just destroyed a fellow contender in their home deck. Smiles all round

Regulation 10 goal belting

Im off to the veil of negativity thread

 

OK it's 35 points but increase by about two points for every goal the Saints kick. ie if the Saints kick ten goals the difference becomes about 50 to 55 points.

Are you serious?

(PS not sure about the premise of your argument anyway. We're 7-0 on the road, whilst 5 of our 6 losses this year have been at the G, including to Sydney).

Finals is a different ball game. Not to mention we want the home ground and home crowd advantage. After missing out last year I think we want our fans at the G cheering the boys on. 


Players beating the chest together in the room after the game. Jonesy was talking about that on the radio today, he said it was a team thing that the focus was in 2021 keeping the opposition below 68 points

A COMPLETE SHELLACKING 

Ah ……… that’s what loading / periodisation looks like!  You bloody Rippa!

Does this mean the curse is broken? 

I could be getting my narratives mixed up.


HA HA HA

If they make a movie of this game it will be called "BACKFIRE".

They come out with their hard man act, against guys like Viney, May, Harmes ... none of our guys will shirk a push and shove and even big lumbering old Benny Brown doesn't take a backward step. Even the boy who's still in high school (probably) won't back down from a skirmish.

What did they think was going to happen???

It was good to see in the first two minutes our pressure was on.

And what was this new thing ... low hard forward entries in space to leading forwards? Since when has that been part of football? I congratulate whoever invented that. We should keep doing it.

Hitting our straps at exactly the right time of year.

GO DEMONS!!!

How massive were Jackson and Rivers in their 50th matches?!

What is with Jonathan Brown and his narrative of us going after Zorko all night?

Bloke is deluded, Zorko was a [censored] from the first contest

Why it has nothing to do with it, we achieved a win, players reaction with the chest beating means we clearly achieved our target of keeping them below a certain score.

you ever had anything to do with footy at a decent level and when you’re way ahead you start managing your players

Big win

%boost

no injuries

top 4

Good night but others always need to whinge

Great to see Bowey bank another win, too!

Rivers finally fit and confident in his knee is massive

His sidestep and agility is huge at half back

Our last four matches have been against top 8 sides, three of whom have been playing for top 4. How much more different are finals going to be?

Tonight we were underdogs and you yourself acknowledged pre-match it was supposed to be a tight one.

Reacting like this after we've belted our literal contender for 2nd spot is silly.

If we'd just played North, sure, be upset with junk time goals.

One of Rivers' best games

Looks like he can finally run again

  • REPORT: Geelong

    I was disappointed to hear Goody say at his post match presser after the team’s 39 point defeat against Geelong that "we're getting high quality entry, just poor execution" because Melbourne’s problems extend far beyond that after its 0 - 4 start to the 2025 football season. There are clearly problems with poor execution, some of which were evident well before the current season and were in play when the Demons met the Cats in early May last year and beat them in a near top-of-the-table clash that saw both sides sitting comfortably in the top four after round eight. Since that game, the Demons’ performances have been positively Third World with only five wins in 19 games with a no longer majestic midfield and a dysfunctional forward line that has become too easy for opposing coaches to counter. This is an area of their game that is currently being played out as if they were all completely panic-stricken.

  • PREGAME: Essendon

    Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

  • NON-MFC: Round 04

    Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

  • POSTGAME: Geelong

    The Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, falling to 0–4 after a more spirited showing against the Cats at Kardinia Park. Despite the improved effort, they went down by 39 points, and the road ahead is looking increasingly grim.
