I would really like it to NOT be close. A win with minimal effort would be much better. 

Agreed, it was 13 goals to 2 at half time 3 weeks ago, a similar score is desirable.

    Daniher out means they will play fast corridor football instead of their slow high marking game.

    What game style do we fail against most often?

    They have to win the ball first and they’re not as skilled as other sides that have beaten us that way.

    Dud Sportsbet have the Dee's as unbackable favourites for the first 10 rounds this year?

    Like pretty much every expert commentator?

    That's right! Or at least half of that will be acceptable!

    If we are too tall back maybe an opportunity, to shift Petty forward to help out BB?

    I'm surprised and shocked on two counts.

    1. Someone found Daniher attractive enough to do the deed

    2. Daniher was accurate enough to "kick a goal."

    Never a problem for AFL players no matter their looks. 
    But yeah, can’t dispute your 2nd point 😂

    Hearing that we also might have a late out for Smith or Bedford either of which will play or supersub

    Might want to send this through to the coaches at MFC, doubt they will catch on

    Sounds a bit Spargo-ish.

    #GoDees. #GiveEmHell

    Last week i was anxious as all heck, today i am very much "what will be will be". Would be a waste of a season to go out in straight sets, particularly starting 10-0.

    It's all up to the boys now. I'll be there cheering them on tonight, and hopefully get to next week as well. 🤞

    Agree. But that’s how the Dees mess with your head. Flat this week. Smash the Lions

    have a week of getting your hopes up then Hawkins kicks 6 and we are crushed!

    good times!

    Yep


    No matter what anyone says, there is huge pressure on us tonight. 

    We haven't had enough go wrong out of our control to mean that a straight sets exit after starting 10-0 and finishing 2nd is acceptable. It isn't.

    I put very little weight in the margin of the two H&A games. Finals are different. We won't blow Brisbane apart (if we do, that says way more about them than us). We are better than them, we should find it easier to score against them than Sydney given their leaky defence, and we should have a point to prove and a burning desire to right the ship.

    I don't mind if it's a slog, or if it's close, or if we're behind at points. I just want a win. I want a shot at Geelong in a prelim, where for the first time in a long time we'll be significant underdogs.

    funny thing is, if we win tonight, I think we will beat Geelong next week. go figure

    Things were certainly different last week. We just need to get the job done tonight, that is all. Not particularly fussed about the perfect performance. Win and go again.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Essendon

      It’s Pink Lady night at Princes Park — a vibey Friday evening setting for a high-stakes clash between second-placed Melbourne and eleventh-placed Essendon. The wind-sheltered IKON Park, a favourite ground of the Demon players, promises flair, fire and a touch of pink. Melbourne has never lost a home-and-away game here, though the ghosts of two straight-sets finals exits in 2023 still linger.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 1 Steven May 

      The premiership defender has shown signs of wear and tear due to age, and his 2025 season was inconsistent, ending poorly with a suspension and a noticeable decline in performance. The Demons are eager to integrate younger players onto their list and have indicated that they may not be able to guarantee him senior games next season, in what would be the final year of his contract.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 2 Jacob van Rooyen

      The young key tall failed to make progress during the season, with a decline in his goal kicking output. His secondary role as a backup ruckman, which may have hindered his ability to further develop his game, and he was also impacted by the team's poor forward connection. It will be interesting to observe his performance under a new coaching regime.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #3 Christian Salem   

      Salem proved to be a valuable contributor as a reliable and solid one-on-one medium-sized defender in what was undoubtedly his most impressive season since the premiership year. He remains a highly capable rebounding option for the Demons as he approaches his 200th game at the club.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

      Following an injury-interrupted start to the season, McVee struggled to maintain the standard he established in 2025 as he pursued an expanded role within the team structure. He remained a firm fan favourite and the club had hoped to negotiate a new contract with the former rookie selection from Western Australia, whose partner, Lily Johnson, plays for Melbourne's AFLW side. Those hopes were dashed when he expressed his desire to return to his home state and play for Fremantle. Like all players who have worn the red and blue and are leaving this year, we wish him well in the future.
