The number of close wins theyve had reads like a fairytale. Theyre good at it but luck and dodgy umpiring certainly plays its role.

We probably  would of lost to the Pies if the game had gone another minute. Just one more crucial umpiring decision Pies way and the Pies win another game on the siren.

    I imagine Kane Farrell is not Mr.Popular on the Port boards today.  The deliberate OOB that gave Elliott a makeable shot at goal and then dropping the pressure chest mark at the death.

    And then dropped a sitter inside 50 from a JHF pass with a minute to go.

    It's funny how the best teams have so many "lucky" wins.

    The best teams fight to the end and always believe they can win. It's what separates them from the rest.

    And we don’t? 
    We fought back twice against the Lions, and against Port and held on against the Pies. Our average losing margin is exceptionally small for a reason. 

    We just don’t get behind as often at the Pies, so nobody rates our ability to fight back and win. But that doesn’t mean we don’t or can’t. We fought back from 19 points down in a grand final and won by 70+.

    Means nothing if you're fighting back and not getting the results.

    Pies on the other hand simply get the results.

    Agree. We’re rarely not in with a chance to win our games. It’s why we’re a contender as well.

    We beat Lions, we beat Dogs, we beat Geelong. 
    And I bet my bottom dollar that if Oliver doesn’t do his hamstring we beat Port as well. 
     

    There is a lot to be said for fighting back and winning. But there’s equally a lot to be said for not needing to constantly fight back to win, don’t you think? 
    Why is Pies coming back and winning more impressive than Melbourne being in every game we play and rarely being in a position to not win it?

    Are you a Melbourne supporter? I think if there has been another minute e we would have won by over a goal.

    St Kilda being able to start the last two seasons the same and fade out the same is uncanny, 

    When are they sacking Ross the Boss?

    These over-celebrations by the Saints players after kicking a goal is hilarious.

    You’re on 61 points with 10 minutes left against the second worst team in the comp that hasn’t won a game since round 2. 
     

    I’d be ashamed if I even cracked a smile lol

    • PREVIEW: St. Kilda

      When the Demons blew their 46-point lead at Marvel Stadium in Round 20 last year, the fallout was enormous. Like an event straight out of a Shakespearean tragedy, Melbourne’s final-quarter collapse left fans reeling and the club grappling with the aftermath.

    • PREGAME: St. Kilda

      With just over two weeks until their opening match of the 2026 AFL Premiership season, the Demons are already well on the path to redemption and have the Saints firmly in their sights ahead of their mid-March clash at the MCG. What do you think the team will look like when they run out on to the G?

    • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

      Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.

    • REPORT: Richmond

      Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.
