It all started when Jacko left the midfield ascendancy we had with him and Gawn playing a kick behind had us almost impenetrable.

Without Jacko and Gawn as a tandum, we became mediocre.

We tried to replicate it with Grundy and it messed with Gawn's time in the middle, there was no balance between the pair of them like there was with Jacko.

Melbourne supporters need to be filthy about this [censored] and we need to stop [censored] around. 

I don't care if you're in the Demon Army, the Demonland podcast, an absolute one-eyed diehard...

We won a flag in the worst possible year to win a flag when we were all locked in our homes and couldn't attend. 

Then we back it up with four (4!) straight finals losses at the MCG. 

The club has resumed regular programing and it is absolute rubbish! 

Collingwood has eleven, 11 of its best 22 out. They have zero forward line. We are missing Jake Lever.

After everything this club went through after last year's Qualifying Final, to play like this... 

If anyone even tries to justify this I'll lose it.

We have no changed as a football club. What happened in the off season was nothing short of a disgrace. 

This club has always lacked heart and it always will.

I haven't fully recovered after last year's semi final loss and I am now deeper in my resentment for this club.

What a waste of my [censored] time and money.

Goodwin - it’s time to go. Seriously shows zero ability to turn this around.  He had all the jewels in 2021. But failed before and after.  That’s 8 years at the helm and to take one premiership from such a list is a poor poor poor outcome.

We have kicked 4 goals in 4 quarters, against a side who has 11 best 22 out and 8 from their premiership side. Made no statement as a club, just turned it into a slog to not get blown away. Very disappointing. As Neale said, when all is said and done, more is said than done. Even the commentators have made comment of Goodwin always talking...

I'm not sure what has happened lately, but it seems it is now deeper than I thought.

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo. The play start time was brought forward from the initial 11am bounce, due to the high temperatures forecast.  The match sim will consist of four 25-minute qu
