    Well, we SHOULD win 7, with the only loss coming today. We are a better side, at full strength, then 7 of those 8 teams.

  • Quote

    If we beat Collingwood, Richmond, Essendon and Carlton I'll be thrilled.

    The other games are 50-50 at best, and the result will once again depend on the length of our injury list.

    Could scrape in against Richmond, but we could be 0 /16 just as easily. More optimistically (but why be optimistic?) we could win 3. Either way, who really cares

    Kangaroos, Richmond, Carlton and Brisbane. Players that are injured will return. Players underdone will improve.

    well i though 5-3 for the first 8 games and we're 0-8.

    soooo, 3-5!!!! come on 8-8 with push for top 4!

    Why is there no option for 0 wins? <_<

    And I didn't mention 'tanking' ;)

    Exactly what I was thinking

  • Quote

    i think we are the most optimisitc fans ever for a team who is 0-8. the spread is pretty even around 4 of the next 8, and about the same have predicted we'll win all 8 as have predicted we'll win 0. nice little bell curve, but its hard to believe we're so optimistic, reading alot of the rest of the site. most people think its not the injuries, but the only difference bettween the next 8 and the previous 8 will be personal on board and a lack of confidence that comes with not winning a game...

    Hopefully ND has the team set for the next seven weeks.

    In all honesty anything is possible. It just takes one win. You'd have to think McLean, Rivers and Robbo weren't risked against the Eagles for that very reason.

    C'arn Dees. DO SOMETHING!

    we'll beat the roos. we will.

    i'll go f98765 mental party untill the following sunday, because i've seen the boys show commitment and passion to notch up the first win. and from there, who knows!

    It all depends on whether Sautner's playing or not.

    Thats because i kmew that melbourne were gonna win

    how many of the next 5 will they win now?

  • Quote

    If we dont start to string the next few together, i can see the club making some selection changes in order to prepare for the future. This will hamper our ability to win games against quality opposition later in the year.

    If we start to win a few in a row, and we start to make up some ground on the 8, the dees will go full tilt and try and win every quarter of everygame later in the year, in the hope that they can sneak into 8th place.

    My guess is 4 of the next 8.

  • Quote

    we should start preparing for the upcoming years now. We still have question marks with our spine, and we have several players reaching the 30 mark. We have a great group of talented players and i don't want to see them suffer like neita has. We need the priority pick and a high pick, because with it, it will solve the problems our team has.

    • The Clayton Oliver Thread

      Melbourne have held talks with Clayton Oliver and they’ve laid out where he fits in under Steve King’s vision and been frank about expectations. Oliver is still under contract for five years, but the door is open if he wants to explore his options elsewhere.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Essendon

      It’s Pink Lady night at Princes Park — a vibey Friday evening setting for a high-stakes clash between second-placed Melbourne and eleventh-placed Essendon. The wind-sheltered IKON Park, a favourite ground of the Demon players, promises flair, fire and a touch of pink. Melbourne has never lost a home-and-away game here, though the ghosts of two straight-sets finals exits in 2023 still linger.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 1 Steven May 

      The premiership defender has shown signs of wear and tear due to age, and his 2025 season was inconsistent, ending poorly with a suspension and a noticeable decline in performance. The Demons are eager to integrate younger players onto their list and have indicated that they may not be able to guarantee him senior games next season, in what would be the final year of his contract.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 2 Jacob van Rooyen

      The young key tall failed to make progress during the season, with a decline in his goal kicking output. His secondary role as a backup ruckman, which may have hindered his ability to further develop his game, and he was also impacted by the team's poor forward connection. It will be interesting to observe his performance under a new coaching regime.
