Need to avoid being the first team in the current finals system to go out in straight sets two years in a row.

Wild to think we haven’t won a final since 2021.

We will. The media can go and get .....

Seems to be a Carlton intra club going by the media.

Also we have umpire #22 so #freekickcarlton will be in full effect. 

Faaaark why is this umpire doing finals?!

    I'll be heading in quite early today to enjoy a couple pf pre game coldies. Perhaps I should call it a pre game celebration as I'm extremely , highly, fully confident of a win!

    There has been a lot of criticism of selection but to this I say 'bah" - we could play the drovers dog at CHF and still beat these pretenders.

    Prediction - All over at 3/4 time.

    Can’t wait for the bounce. Boys better respond. We’ll know early if we’re going to win this. I predict a hot start, the boys will want to get themselves in a position to have another crack the filth on the 30th.

    If we aren’t running through walls and ready to absolutely explode tonight we will lose 

    He retired a long time ago, unfortunately.

    Looks like Ray Comfort.

     

    Trac, Viney, Lever and a few other senior players disappointed last day out. They won't be as poor again.

    Dry deck so no excuses for poor goal kicking. TMac and Fritsch will be better tonight

    Carlton faded badly against the Swans and should have lost. We'll run over the top of them.

    Max to lead the way as usual. He's a champion.

    Dees by 25 points

    Just cannot see how Smith and Tmac as our two main talls are going to kick a winning score. Chandler and Pickett have barely fired a shot the last couple of weeks as well.

    The brunt of it all will be left to Fritsch unfortunately. 

    Carlton have all the momentum and emotion wave going with them where as I question if the the mental and emotional toll from all the Brayshaw fallout will have an effect. 

    Prove me wrong otherwise Melbourne. 

    Pretty sure your not alone in thinking this. Throw in Spargo whose been out of this team for a while and yea, it's a nervous wait.

    And Tom McDonald you have been given quite a few chances. 

    But Im hoping Fritta will excel in these dry conditions and Kozzie and Chandler to put on the proverbial clinic.

    Let's move the ball into our fwd line with speed and precision. 

    No way Viney will have another quiet one. He will dominate tonight.

    The big factor in this game is motivation. I imagine this close knit bunch are still fuming over poor Gus.

    Not just the dog act itself but over all  the pundits who supported it.

    The same ones who are delighting in hoping we lose four finals in a row.

    Aint gunna happen.

    If Gus does the pregame talk, we will win this on pure adrenaline.  This will not be a slow start.

    The blues caught us napping a few times last game we met, but things have changed. 

    If I can quote that strange orange man, I think this will be a game of "fire and fury" from us. 

    I'm still so pi33ed off, I just want us to play a gf now so we can have some old fashioned justice. And I know it's wrong to advocate violence but I just really don't care. The Afl certainly doesn't.

    Cannot [censored] wait!

    The Carlton sphincters were working overtime late last week. 

    If we bring the pressure, I think we run over them.

    We'll be fine tonight...  with our finals experience....
    Yep all good ...oh wait...lost our last 3 finals... going well..hmm 

    We'll  need to be ON from the first bounce... that'd be novel !!

    Goodwin is backing his system  ( there is NO fwd system )..  he is expecting the goals to come from ???   Our kicking has been [censored]..  Petty was ok.. oh wait..  Milky was great....oh wait again..  Rooyen can kick...  oh oh...   Fritch got the yips... hasnt been too crash hot back from injury..   no one can hit a barn.
    My advice to self ....get on the beers !! ;) Go Dees ( just not out the door....again ) lol

    I agree BBO, I feel pretty good about the game today. Reckon we'll be fired up in the 1st quarter and likely have 3-4 goals on them early.

    I was so nervous and excited last week.

    I feel nothing this week. Footy has been less than enjoyable since last Thursday if I'm being honest.

    Hope we put on a good display tonight and get the win.

    It's Game Day and the Demons take on the Blues in a sudden death final at the MCG. A win for the Dees will see them face the Lions at their fortress at the Gabba in Brisbane and a loss will see them bundled out of the finals in straight sets for the second season in a row.

    • PREVIEW: North Melbourne

      Can you believe it? After a long period of years over which Melbourne has dominated in matches against North Melbourne, the Demons are looking down the barrel at two defeats at the hands of the Kangaroos in the same season. And if that eventuates, it will come hot on the heels of an identical result against the Gold Coast Suns. How have the might fallen? There is a slight difference in that North Melbourne are not yet in the same place as Gold Coast. Like Melbourne, they are currently situated in the lower half of the ladder and though they did achieve a significant upset when the teams met earlier in the season, their subsequent form has been equally unimpressive and inconsistent.

    • REPORT: Adelaide

      The atmosphere at the Melbourne Football Club at the beginning of the season was aspirational following an injury-plagued year in 2024. Coach Simon Goodwin had lofty expectations with the return of key players, the anticipated improvement from a maturing group with a few years of experience under their belts, and some exceptional young talent also joining the ranks. All of that went by the wayside as the team failed to click into action early on. It rallied briefly with a new strategy but has fallen again with five more  consecutive defeats.

    • CASEY: Coburg

      The Casey Demons returned to their home ground which was once a graveyard for opposing teams but they managed to gift the four points on offer to Coburg with yet another of their trademark displays of inaccuracy in front of goals and some undisciplined football that earned the displeasure of the umpires late in the game. The home team was welcomed by a small crowd at Casey Fields and looked right at home as it dominated the first three quarters and led for all bar the last five minutes of the game. In the end, they came away with nothing, despite winning everywhere but on the scoreboard and the free kick count.

      After four weeks on the road the Demons make their long awaited return to the MCG next Sunday to play in a classic late season dead rubber against the North Melbourne Kangaroos. Who comes in and who comes out?

    • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

      The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.
