Bloody hope it’s not as bad as it looks. He’s absolutely earned his place in this team and we need his dynamism 👌 

It’s almost certainly season ending. Just hope he gets back for pre season. But it’s just such bad luck for the bloke roughing it out in 2s for so long.

I never want us to play bruise free footy ever again

Yeah but gee the injuries! The stress, the cotton wool we didn't get to use!

 

Magnificent performance. Superb preparation for finals.

I’m surprised some of us supporters still think we wouldn’t try to win. Goes against everything we stand for as a team. This team will never never never ever tank or not give their all. Ever.

Looking forward to finals. And feeling super confident. Good luck rest of the comp. It’s going to take a serious effort to beat us.

go dees


Outstanding season Demons

Never say die side

Thanks Simon Goodwin and all training staff

So proud to be a Dee

Lets hope you pull through Milkshake

Go Dees

look out Pies.

Garry Lyon reckons one of our most impressive wins of the season, not far off I reckon. 

Wish it was just little more bruise free!

Milks injury takes the shine off it.

But it was still a tough win.

We seem to get caught napping after half time and don't make things easy for ourselves 

But I reckon the fitness of Trac, Viney, Rivers and a couple of others always helps us grind these games out .

It was Sydney whose tackles weren't sticking in the last quarter and despite having a key fwd to down, we kicked five in a row.

If Milkshake is out, I’d roll with Laurie. Had 9 touches in 28 mins, a few score involvements, 8 pressure acts. 

 

If we win the flag, Melksham might be the best case for a Premiership Medallion for the list that got you there. Maybe with a minimum of 5 or 10 games.

Rumour is that magpie hunting season is about to begin, very, very soon. Be afraid, very afraid, the Demons are coming. GO DEES!!!!!


Glad we won!

Winning form is the best form.

Was an extremely tough and hard fought win in front of a hostile crowd at the SCG.

Was extremely worried about Jake Melksham (and Bayley Fritsch) regarding their injuries. Hopefully they are both ok?

Jack Viney, Christian Petracca and Bayley Fritsch all played brilliantly!

Certainly a great game to play leading into the finals. It will have us toughened up and ready for the Magpies.

In some good news, apparently Brodie Grundy kicked 3 goals (and had 33 disposals) and Tom McDonald kicked 5 goals at VFL level. So some "good" selection headaches.

4.4 vs 0.2 away from home on the last with the other team having it all to play for

That is impressive

Kosi looks more comfortable leading out of the square. Pace and leap a real threat.

I have said this time and time again you do not leave the 50 meter arc full stop and I would add Fritta to that, let there opposition go up the ground, less congestion going forward. 


Gees I was worried when Fritta was off with his foot, Milkshake with his knee, and Bowey with his shoulder - I thought our resurgent forward line was looking a bit shaky and the last thing we needed was an injury. Fingers, legs, arms crossed for Melksham.

I loved the look of our forward line with JVR, Smith, Melksham, Fritta supported by Chandler and Kossie and cameos from Trac and the poor kicking for goal backline (Rivo and Maysie, you know who I'm referring to). What a game from Fritta first game back.

Nice to see Gawny, Trac, Clarry and Fritta on the bench in the last. Not so nice for Salo who copped one and was looking to come off.

Great win, I didn't think we'd do anywhere near that well. Bring on the pies.

Me three, I’m very sad - I have everything crossed we’ll see him again this year 🤞🏻🤞🏻

Was Kozzie playing a Charlie Cameron like full forward role?

Was pretty impressive to watch.

Bailey Fritsch is the most underrated forward the AFL

He makes it look so easy. man we have missed his unbelievably effective goal scoring

He was very good but the question is how much was it because he was fresh legs coming on with both sides pretty stuffed.

There’s no doubt Laurie’s best would be really handy, but there’s a risk he’s beaten for pace and can’t get out of traffic against an aggressive quick pies side.

I reckon this sums it up perfectly

How are Collingwood favourites for the Qualifying Final? Is it simply because most punters are supporters of those sides and there are more Collingwood supporters? I don't get it. Surely at best for them it should be dead even in the odds / Premiership race, given finishing 4th is the same as 1st this year (because of the venue). Not sure wearing white shorts and a royal blue jumper will inhibit us...

Great win.

GO DEES

  • 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.
