They definitely overachieved last year, they are still middle of the pack.

That's being generous. Will finish 14th after this round and will be lucky to win three more for the year. Up until about three weeks ago had a great run with the least injuries. Pains me we lost to them but we have at least taken a couple of top teams .

I mean that they are still far off becoming a serious premiership contender. I believe people in WA drank their own bathwater and really thought they were a chance, just get one unicorn!

Saints, Dogs, and either Bombers or Cats drop a game on us in 4th...

Handy for our spot in 4

Port play Collingwood in Adelaide  -  so top 2 could switch

Keeps it very live in top 4

Top 2 is out of our reach barring upsets. We also have to win every game.

Saints next 4 games at Marvel. How many games do they play there? Seems they’re there most weeks. 

They play their next 5 at Marvel !

They're bog ordinary cant even get into the game against the Suns. Most likely team to drop out of the 8. Only still in it because of their soft fixture.

I disagree if Port drop today they are in a little bother.

Even if they lose today they could only lose 2 more (Geelong and Collingwood). Unless they drop another and we win all our games we can’t mathematically catch them.

Our chance is small and we can only blame ourselves but the Local Derby is always a 50/50 game no matter which team is  sitting where on the ladder. Happy if we can just win our last six and sit back and watch.

Unlikely they drop out of the top 2 but I think the showdown could go either way and GWS may push them as well.

Can see a dip in performance from them after 13 straight wins, teams can rarely sustain it.

    The premiership defender had his best year yet as he was given the opportunity to move into the midfield and made a good fist of it.

    Veteran Demonland Trackwatchers Kev Martin, Slartibartfast & Demon Wheels were on hand at Gosch's Paddock to kick off the official first training session for the 1st to 4th year players with a few elder statesmen in attendance as well. KEV MARTIN'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Beautiful morning. Joy all round, they look like they want to be there.  21 in the squad. Looks like the leadership group is TMac, Viney Chandler and Petty. They look like they have sli

    2024 Player Reviews: #1 Steven May

    The years are rolling by but May continued to be rock solid in a key defensive position despite some injury concerns. He showed great resilience in coming back from a nasty rib injury and is expected to continue in that role for another couple of seasons. Date of Birth: 10 January 1992 Height: 193cm Games MFC 2024: 19 Career Total: 235 Goals MFC 2024: 1 Career Total: 24 Melbourne Football Club: 9th Best & Fairest: 316 votes

    2024 Player Reviews: #4 Judd McVee

    It was another strong season from McVee who spent most of his time mainly at half back but he also looked at home on a few occasions when he was moved into the midfield. There could be more of that in 2025. Date of Birth: 7 August 2003 Height: 185cm Games MFC 2024: 23 Career Total: 48 Goals MFC 2024: 1 Career Total: 1 Brownlow Medal Votes: 1 Melbourne Football Club: 7th Best & Fairest: 347 votes

    2024 Player Reviews: #31 Bayley Fritsch

    Once again the club’s top goal scorer but he had a few uncharacteristic flat spots during the season and the club will be looking for much better from him in 2025.

    2024 Player Reviews: #18 Jake Melksham

    After sustaining a torn ACL in the final match of the 2023 season Jake added a bit to the attack late in the 2024 season upon his return. He has re-signed on to the Demons for 1 more season in 2025. Date of Birth: 12 August 1991 Height: 186cm Games MFC 2024: 8 Career Total: 229 Goals MFC 2024: 8 Career Total: 188

    2024 Player Reviews: #3 Christian Salem

    The luckless Salem suffered a hamstring injury against the Lions early in the season and, after missing a number of games, he was never at his best. He was also inconvenienced by minor niggles later in the season. This was a blow for the club that sorely needed him to fill gaps in the midfield at times as well as to do his best work in defence.

    2024 Player Reviews: #39 Koltyn Tholstrop

    The first round draft pick at #13 from twelve months ago the strongly built medium forward has had an impressive introduction to AFL football and is expected to spend more midfield moments as his career progresses.
