Just wondering what everyone thinks about the dees when we will win our next flag and what we need to do to get it.

We have a new coach is this going to be the one to develope our players we will have to wate and see.

Should we bottom out like the tanks because at the moment they look like they might win a flag before us.

    Mate that's the big question isn't it.

    Its hard to judge things like this. It's been 44 years now and whilst the past 10 or so years we've been competitive we've never really looked like were in with a real shot. Sadly with our recent form I think it is inevitible that we will finish near the bottom even if we do play all our older guys. I suppose the good thing is that we have a head start if we choose to rebuild as all our youngsters seem to be pretty handy

    This time last year a number of media people had us in their top 4 - this year they'll ll have us in the bottom 2 or 3.

    No practice wins - who can blame them. Apart from the Geelong game I haven't seen them this year. I think Melbourne are a 6 to 12 side depending on injuries.

    My biggest hope is that the demons get some late 80's mongrel back into them, not punches or that but good hard solid crunching tackling - win or lose I'd like opposition sides to say that they copped a few bruises and were tackled hard in a Melbourne game and they were sore - that's my first step to getting a Melbourne side back as a force. There were too many "soft arm tackles" as Gerard Healy called them. A hard tackling side creates pressue - have a look at what ST Kilda did to Adelaide on Saturday night.

    To be fair mate Moloney and sylvia were smashing blokes into the turf all day on Saturday. Obviously didn't make much difference though.

    To the original question I would say not to worry about possibly being out of town in September for at least a few years.

    • PREVIEW: Collingwood

      Way back in March we contemplated the possibility of a Demon resurgence after Simon Goodwin’s summer of love. Many issues at the club had seemingly been addressed, key players were returning from injury and a brand new day was about to dawn. We imagined the coach pulling a rabbit out of a hat. The team would roar up the charts, push aside every opponent and make its way to a Grand Final ending in ultimate triumph with Goody and Max holding the premiership cup aloft under a shower of red and blue ticker tape.

    • AFLW REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      We’re back! That was fun. The Mighty Dees’ Season 10 campaign is off toa flying start with a commanding 48-point winover the Western Bulldogs, retaining the Hampson-Hardeman Cup in style. After a hard-fought first half in slippery conditions, the Dees came out in the second half and showcased their trademark superior class, piling on four goals in the third termand never looked back.

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      The final score in Saturday's game against Hawthorn was almost identical to that from their last contest three months ago. Melbourne suffered comprehensive defeats in both games, but the similarities ended there.When they met in Round 9, the Demons were resurgent, seeking to redeem themselves after a lacklustre start to the season. They approached the game with vigour and dynamism, and were highly competitive for the first three quarters, during which they were at least on par with the Hawks. In the final term, they lapsed into error and were ultimately overrun, but the final result did not accurately reflect their effort and commitment throughout the match.

    • CASEY: Box Hill

      The Casey Demons ended the regular season on a positive note and gained substantial momentum leading into the finals when they knocked the Box Hill Hawks off the top of the VFL ladder in their final round clash at Casey Fields. More importantly, they moved out of a wild card position in the finals race and secured a week's rest as they leapfrogged up the ladder into fifth place with their decisive 23-point victory over the team that had been the dominant force in the competition for most of the season.

    • PREGAME: Collingwood

      The final game of the 2025 Season is finally upon us and the Demons may have an opportunity to spoil the Magpies Top 4 aspirations when they face them on Friday Night. Who comes in and who goes out?
