Only thing is, has a full pre-season to be ready again.

This night doesn't want to end.

Or a knee.

    I can think of three instances over the last 4 or 5 years where play has been stopped and Melbourne has featured in all of them.

    WCE v Dees in 2021, BL v Dees 2023, and now I believe.

    Ah... I thought this was a post match thread. I forgot it's the game day thread.

    We always cop the lightning game

    Hopefully it has broken some sort of curse.

    The only thing I can take out of tonight.

    I'am starting to grow very tired of the regime right at the top from Roffey, Pert, Richardson and Goodwin.

    "Play the youngsters"-  How about we do it next year in key defence too?

    TMAC should retire and let a kid come through. dont care how good he's been, last few weeks have been pretty poor. Play Petty or Turner 

    Trade Salem, soft and overated the last couple of years.

    What a sad, embarrassing way to end the season. Barely fired a shot.

    I'll probably cop flack for this but I think we should seriously entertain the idea of trading Fritsch.

    I'm 100% with you. Big sook who likes to get the ball in the open by himself. Has skills but no gumption at all. Let the scribes have a go at both of us.

    I just hope our defence holds up with two key defenders using walking frames

     

    I’m sitting here with electricity on watching the TV

     

    Weak p-r-i-c-k-s. 
     

    I ain’t worried.

    They spread so much better than we do. They spread like butter left out on the bench on a warm day. We're butter coming straight out of the fridge.

    And they use a knife. We use our fingers then try to mark the ball or miss tackles.

    [censored] me I played in lighting storms in under 12’s. Play on FFS

    In the extremely rare instance of a lighting strike it would hit the top of the stadium or the goal posts

    Whilst he is soft he has talent though, but the reality is he's a third forward not a main guy, if you can improve the forward line he will be more dangerous.

    I just don't think we are in a position with the list to lose both Tomlinson and TMac.

    Even if TMac is only depth next year. We need quality tall position players.

    There is plenty of other players in front of the exit queue.

    Plus he's been excellent tonight in a depleted backline

    T-Mac can hold his head up tonight and most of the season.

    Thommo is depth at best at this point and the ability to step up to AFL level and have an impact may have gone past him now.

    Fritsch and ANB for Rachele and a second rounder

    I’d do it but I seriously doubt Port would.

    Sorry but I had to call it a day. I can’t no more.

    Call it off now, give them the points and we'll be able to hear them whinge because they were robbed of a chance of a 100 point win. Lovely.

    Me too, but it has little to do with our failure to function tonight.

    I hope Crisp does his hamstring of the bone or a knee after the lightning.

    Doesn't deserve Jimmy's record the scumbag.

    Why? He has been a good player for a long time. Maybe not as good as Jimma but give him a break he has kept at it. Stop having a go at these players who have performed consistently for a long time without injuries.

    Surely the lightning would find the highest point, in which case Max would be in grave danger.

    • PREVIEW: Carlton

      Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.

    • REPORT: North Melbourne

      I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

    • CASEY: Werribee

      The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

      The Demons return to the MCG as the the visiting team on Saturday night to take on the Blues who are under siege after 4 straight losses. Who comes in and who goes out?

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
