This is looking like a choke of epic proportions. Smashed at the contest and in contested marks. Poor decision making when we do get open. Brisbane must be laughing. Had to win the last game of the season to snatch a double chance and now look like hosting another Grand Final. 

I think that might be 5 quarters in a row now that we've been goalless.

Pretty poor from start to finish. Lack polish and as already stated, if you take away our handball chain game we are totally hopeless. We have been smashed in every facet of the game


What is it with the MFC and finals? We've talked up our culture a lot but we're as soft as butter. Demon Spirit my eye.

I’m completely gutted and it’s only 3/4 time.  I’v very rarely said that in a Dees AFLW game.

Extremely soft football along with some dumb decision making.

 

You make your own luck in footy but geez we haven’t had a good bounce all day 


Geelong will fancy their chances next week. i hope we can get our [censored] together sufficiently to win that game at least and avoid the dreaded straight sets.

One of those days.....

Happy with a goal at this stage.

We always said one day the women's game would be just like the men's.

ow is that not a HTB against Kearney. Not that it matters at this stage but umpiring is as poor as usual

Norf player runs 30 metres, all good

And their fans celebrating like that goal won the flag. Crom will destroy them in the prelim.

I don't think it's hyperbole to say it's probably the worst game we've ever played, considering the occasion. Hopefully we come up with a solution because Geelong will have a very clear game plan next week.

 

I’m speechless, so I won’t say any more!

Melby-wobbles!

    Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.

  • GAMEDAY: Essendon

    It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?

  • PREVIEW: Essendon

    As the focus of the AFL moves exclusively to South Australia for Gather Round, the question is raised as to what are we going to get from the  Melbourne Football Club this weekend? Will it be a repeat of the slop fest of the last three weeks that have seen the team score a measly 174 points and concede 310 or will a return to the City of Churches and the scene where they performed at their best in 2024 act as a wakeup call and bring them out of their early season reverie?  Or will the sleepy Dees treat their fans to a reenactment of their lazy effort from the first Gather Round of two years ago when they allowed the Bombers to trample all over them on a soggy and wet Adelaide Oval? The two examples from above tell us how fickle form can be in football. Last year, a committed group of players turned up in Adelaide with a businesslike mindset. They had a plan, went in confidently and hard for the football and kicked winning scores against both home teams in a difficult environment for visitors. And they repeated that sort of effort later in the season when they played Essendon at the MCG.
