Carlton beat us in the 2023 semi.

North beat in the 1998 prelim.

Hawthorn beat us in the 1988 GF.

But we beat them all when it counted in this monumental 2018 tournament.

    Three years later, we took the big one out for the men and a year later, for the women.

    Time for some more …

    Few fresh-faced there! Look at Baker's mop!

    Bring it back.

    Not as stupid as it sounds. The mistake was to introduce it first at the elite level with absolutely weird promotion.

    Rugby 7's and touch football (NRL) are good examples of game adaptations. Futsal and indoor cricket are other instances.

    Build from a community/school base is the way to start IMO

    Gil: Ok, AFLX.. how are we going to promote this?

    intern: First, we need two dudes in women’s bathers from the 1950’s but with the chest area cut out. And then, we get one of the dudes to stand on the head of the other guy and get him to squat down.

    At the time everyone was making it a joke, well how did we go that year, I always thought it was a positive title to win, and showed that this team is a really good team.

    • 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.

    • WHAT’S NEXT? by The Oracle

      What’s next for a beleagured Melbourne Football Club down in form and confidence, facing  intense criticism and disapproval over some underwhelming recent performances and in the midst of a four game losing streak? Why, it’s Adelaide which boasts the best percentage in the AFL and has won six of its last seven games. The Crows are hot and not only that, the game is at the Adelaide Oval; yet another away fixture and the third in a row at a venue outside of Victoria. One of the problems the Demons have these days is that they rarely have the luxury of true home ground advantage, something they have enjoyed just once since mid April.
