You’re not a Melbourne supporter. A true Melbourne supporter would never, ever celebrate a loss, no matter the reason.

Lawyers, Guns and Money would disagree Ghosty. I KNOW what ur saying, but let me ask you this? Do the needs of the many outweigh the needs of the one, or do the needs of the one outweigh the needs of the many? If greater good occurs because of something which is not, is that not a good outcome, depending of course on the long term success of the negative action! Over to you Ghosty!

    I want Goodwin gone as much as anyone but this is Essendon.
    One of the absolute must win games of the season.
    The knives can wait .... For a couple weeks.

    CELEBRATE is too strong a word but it might be one week closer to a new direction that these players and supporters desperately need.

    Continue to love and support the best sporting club in the world, while simultaneously multi-tasking the following:

    1. driving my family to distraction via yelling, moaning and head rubbing

    2. being physically restrained from throwing assorted remote controls at the large TV screen.

    3. typing furiously on Demonland to express my rage, disappointment , self-inflated opinions, and frustration.

    Sums up my 2025 experience really.

    I hear ya DOF. The inaugural Gather Round, I went by car, only stopped once, got to Adelaide, parked the car, arrived just before the first bounce, sat in the heavy, nonstop rain watching us lose to 🤮Essendon🤮, got back in the car and came straight back to Melbourne. But…

    I wasn’t glum because I was with DA buddies and we don’t do glum. 😉

    All good PF, BBP has expressed my sentiment perfectly. Also pleasing is that he didn’t put “of” after “strong” and yes, it does matter. 😁

    • REPORT: Carlton

      I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

    • CASEY: Carlton

      The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

    • POSTGAME: Carlton

      A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
