I'm there. Well, my radio is, anyway.

I quite like Sports Today, actually. Dwayne's better in this mode than he is as a commentator.

    Anyone got a report on what was said?

    Brendan Fevola makes my skin crawl. I'd rather watch and listen to him in preference to Russell. Hate the guy.

    I take it nothing of interest was said..

    A nothing interview, really. Talked about Ball, said nothing we don't already know. Talked about McLean leaving, said nothing we don't already know.

    Stolen (taken for the greater good with no copywrite intended) from KickLongTackleHard on bigfooty

    Bailey on 3aw now:

    - Similar training programme as last year, not rushed into it.

    - 20 started today, rest a week later. Came back in good condition, good sign for young guys. Some exeptional, particularly (going on skin folds, running tests) Nev Jetta, Petterd and Maric. Most good.

    -'Honeymoon period' over?

    Keep putting games in. eg Watts. Need 40-50 games to build a group of players trust. Pattern of successful clubs(top 4/finals), its proven - Geelong/St Kilda.

    -Players must be ready to play, prevent injury

    -4-5 players in the mix for top picks. Still to have meetings with some players

    Luke Ball:

    - 2pm Friday- deal not done. Spoke to Ball 15mins see where he's at. Ball needs time to think. Inappropriate time to throw everything at him.

    -Similar to Brock, what does he give over Brock? Experience: B&F,AA, is on the up from previous years. Both very competitive (buzzword). Carlton are getting a good player in Brock Mclean.

    So yeah, TU summed it up pretty well

    I had a quick listen and yeah, you're spot on. For regular readers of this forum, everything he said was on there except the only think I hadn't seen was that he named the players who came in early.

    That's it. Apparently on SEN tomorrow morning too...

    • POSTGAME: Fremantle

      A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.

    • GAMEDAY: Fremantle

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons return to the MCG wounded, undermanned and desperate. Still searching for their first win of the season, Melbourne faces a daunting task against the Fremantle Dockers. With key pillars missing at both ends of the ground, the Dees must find a way to rise above the adversity and ignite their season before it slips way beyond reach. Will today be the spark that turns it all around, or are we staring down the barrel of a 0–6 start?

    • PREVIEW: Fremantle

      A month is a long time in AFL football. The proof of this is in the current state of the two teams contesting against each other early this Saturday afternoon at the MCG. It’s hard to fathom that when Melbourne and Fremantle kicked off the 2025 season, the former looked like being a major player in this year’s competition after it came close to beating one of the favourites in the GWS Giants while the latter was smashed by Geelong to the tune of 78 points and looked like rubbish. Fast forward to today and the Demons are low on confidence and appear panic stricken as their winless streak heads towards an even half dozen and pressure mounts on the coach and team leadership.  Meanwhile, the Dockers have recovered their composure and now sit in the top eight. They are definitely on the up and up and look most likely winners this weekend against a team which they have recently dominated and which struggles to find enough passages to the goals to trouble the scorers. And with that, Fremantle will head to the MCG, feeling very good about itself after demolishing Richmond in the Barossa Valley with Josh Treacy coming off a six goal haul and facing up to a Melbourne defence already without Jake Lever and a shaky Steven May needing to pass a fitness test just to make it onto the field of play.
