Dogs  v hawks will be interesting.  Our contested footy strategy was one that was supposed to stand up in finals. It will be interesting to see if the Hawks attack minded game holds up against the dogs.

    The Hawks remind me a bit of the Demons of '87

    They are riding the crest of a wave and if they can get past the Doggies, their probable SF opponent will be the Cats at the MCG

    Port in Adelaide would be a lot tougher but Port are coming off a straight sets exit in last years finals campaign, so the pressure would be on them

    I can see the Hawks winning at least 2 finals

    If the Cats go out in straight sets (very possible) will they get the same heat after winning a flag as we did? No finals and straight sets is worse than 2x straight sets.

    Hope Port win tonight. Have no issue with them & I'm sure Ken would like to shut a few down.

    Think Brisbane will easily beat Carlton. 

    But tomorrow night will be great.  See how the younger hawks cope with finals pressure.

    I have minimal interest in the finals this year.

    But I hope Jee-long get bundled out in straight sets. I dislike Bris-bane too. And I'm not overly fond of Hawthorn. Come to think of it, I don't like Port either. 

    That leaves the Dogs, Swans, GWS and Carlton. Actually I don't particularly like Carlton or Dogs either. 

    So, that leaves the Swans and GWS. I probably have a slight preference for GWS ... they'll go crazy in western Sydney if they win. ("They'll" ... perhaps that should be singular?)

    whoever loses tonight goes out in straight sets. whoever wins tomorrw makes a prelim in sydney.

    whichever sydney team wins makes the grand final and probably wins the flag.

    I never imagined I'd forgive GWS for the whole Scully saga, but it did lead to us getting Jesse, which led to May, and eventually, a premiership. I think that helped me move on from it.

    Honestly, I'd be happy to see Jesse win a flag, and since I don’t know any GWS supporters, I’d be fine with them taking it too – no risk of dealing with anyone insufferable!

    The rest can go in the bin. Go Giants.

    • Thank You Simon Goodwin

      As Demon fans, we’ve ridden a rollercoaster of emotions over the decades; the heartbreaks, the near misses, the wooden spoons, and the endless waiting. But through it all, we clung to hope. And then came Simon Goodwin. Before he ever wore red and blue, he was a champion in his own right. A five-time All-Australian, two-time Best and Fairest, and two-time premiership hero and Captain with Adelaide, Simon Goodwin was always destined to lead. When he transitioned from the field to the coach's box, first as an assistant at Essendon, he began shaping a new legacy.

    • PREVIEW: Western Bulldogs

      Long ago and far away, the Melbourne Football Club replaced its coach in difficult circumstances after the team suffered a devastating loss. In the aftermath, I penned the following words: “Then came the politics, the intrigue, the axing, the sound of the football world laughing at a club, the circling of the media vultures, the reinvention of history, the anger, the irony, the pathos, the hurt on the face of the president, the dignified departure of the coach, and the determination of the newly appointed caretaker.” Today, we’re back in the same place although one difference here is that the coach who was terminated this time is Simon Goodwin, the man who four years ago

    • REPORT: West Coast

      The Charles Dickens novel, A Tale of Two Cities, opens with, “It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, …”  This phrase highlights many of the significant challenges that humanity encounters in life, ranging from experiencing remarkable highs to living in times of despair. This is a concept that should resonate with all supporters of the Melbourne Football Club this morning as they reflect on its comprehensive 83-point victory over the struggling West Coast Eagles at Marvel Stadium. The outcome proved beyond doubt that they are the worst of clubs and that we are the best of the worst.

    • PREGAME: Western Bulldogs

      With only 3 games to go, all against Top 8 fancies, the Demons face a daunting task as they return to the MCG when they play the Western Bulldogs. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      The Demons return to town fresh off a thumping win over the back-to-back wooden spooners, the West Coast Eagles, played in front of a sparse crowd at Marvel Stadium, the same venue that hosted last week's heartbreaking loss.
