To launch this special season, this Friday’s edition of The Age newspaper will include a 36-page MELBOURNEfc commemorative liftout reflecting on our Club’s grand history, including interviews with Club greats including Ron Barassi and Robert Flower, and those responsible for the next chapter of our history in Dean Bailey and Chris Connolly

    Our partnership with the Age is turning into a good one, if nothing else Stephen Harris should be applauded for getting this deal sorted (seeing as his previous employer before us was the Age)..

    The liftout looks fantastic from the thumbnail pic of it in the members email!

    He was once President wasn't he? Or at least in the running or something...

    I would imagine it is only a matter of informing the club of your e-mail address by phone, email or on your renewal notice.

    I get a little tired of the above comment. I am sure the club would want your info so you can feel included! If you have a complaint then fix it.

    Shame the release is on the back of The Age negative stories about us yesterday.

    How do you know we had any special deal beyond arms length rates that would apply to any Club?

    But for the record, I think it is a great issue and good timing before the start of the season.

    Well done MFC.

    The liftout is a great read.

    Except for this in the timeline:

    1982: Brian Wilson wins the Brownlow, having won his first with Collingwood in 1979.

    Ahem!

    Spotted, D-Dave. And that's not the only mistake. Look on Page 25 to see it you can spot it, or look here.

    • REPORT: Gold Coast

      From the start, Melbourne’s performance against the Gold Coast Suns at Peoples First Stadium was nothing short of a massive botch up and it came down in the first instance to poor preparation. Rather than adequately preparing the team for battle against an opponent potentially on the skids after suffering three consecutive losses, the Demons looking anything but sharp and ready to play in the opening minutes of the game. By way of contrast, the Suns demonstrated a clear sense of purpose and will to win. From the very first bounce of the ball they were back to where they left off earlier in the season in Round Three when the teams met at the MCG. They ran rings around the Demons and finished the game off with a dominant six goal final term. This time, they produced another dominant quarter to start the game, restricting Melbourne to a solitary point to lead by six goals at the first break, by which time, the game was all but over.

    • CASEY: Gold Coast

      Coming off four consecutive victories and with a team filled with 17 AFL listed players, the Casey Demons took to their early morning encounter with the lowly Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium with the swagger of a team that thought a win was inevitable. They were smashing it for the first twenty minutes of the game after Tom Fullarton booted the first two goals but they then descended into an abyss of frustrating poor form and lackadaisical effort that saw the swagger and the early arrogance disappear by quarter time when their lead was overtaken by a more intense and committed opponent. The Suns continued to apply the pressure in the second quarter and got out to a three goal lead in mid term before the Demons fought back. A late goal to the home side before the half time bell saw them ten points up at the break and another surge in the third quarter saw them comfortably up with a 23 point lead at the final break.

    • POSTGAME: Rd 16 vs Gold Coast

      The Demons did not come to play from the opening bounce and let the Gold Coast kick the first 5 goals of the match. They then outscored the Suns for the next 3 quarters but it was too little too late and their season is now effectively over.

    • GAMEDAY: Rd 16 vs Gold Coast

      It's Game Day and the Demons are back on the road again and this may be the last roll of the dice to get their 2025 season back on track as they take on the Gold Coast Suns at People First Stadium.
