AFL Insider is pretty good too Redleg. Bit of analysis of the game and strategies, which is very good.

Won't watch it because that liar Lynch appears. My son in law said after Lynch retired he went up to him to congratulate him on his career and he turned his back on him. He has the right to be rude and lie if he want's to but I don't have to watch him on TV.

NAB cup squad appears to be falling away. 3 more out today, Morton, Blease and JT. Looks like the rookies will get a go.

The new TV series called "Luck" may appeal to those who follow horse racing . Not sure when it will hit our shores but it's quite popular in the States .

Dustin Hoffman stars .................

I appreciate that some around here frown on political discussion on this thread but with the Gillard/Rudd battle coming up on Monday I think this becomes appropriate in the circumstances:-

hahaha, very appropriate, Jack

Might have one of the cooler days in summer on GC today, also wet. May help us a bit. Interested to see if new game style is evident. Coach says it will be.

Also think Stefan Martin has some real X factor, even though the conditions certainly didn't favour him tonight.

Le Beau Cheval 3rd at 56 to 1, better run, but he looks limited to me.

Just won his first at canberra today at 20 to 1. Has improved 2 starts since gelding.

Also think Stefan Martin has some real X factor, even though the conditions certainly didn't favour him tonight.

He just needs some time.

His agility for a big man leaves him sooooo close to being able to stooge defenders like a Buddy Franklin would, but he is just not quite there yet.

He nearly dodged Adcock last night ,which is ridiculous given his size . I think he will have a VERY good year .


think your right looked good happy.gifhappy.gifhappy.gif

The question is - what happens to all your "Posted ImagePosted ImagePosted Image" thing-a-me-bobs when we log on ?

They mysteriously disappear (slowly)

Nineteen. But don't let on to the Biffenator. He's a big Sepoy fan. Apparently according to Biffen, Black Caviar has been avoiding Sepoy. If you want to talk racing or BC - there is a Black Caviar thread in Sports. Redleg, you might want to add some input on BC.

Didn't actually say that HT .Do bookies pay you to tout things this far in the red or are you just a safety officer ? Fact is they wont race each other .

Biff, refer you to your own posts on " Black Caviar " thread on "Other Sports "

#14 : Black Caviar is dodging decent opposition "

#17 : " Sepoy and her [sic] are dodging each other "

#19 : " Moody places her in fields where Sepoy isn't "

#24 : " Just a point of fact mate . They are avoiding each other for now "

BTW , Sepoy [ who is a fine, fine horse ] really carved them up in the Oakleigh Plate yesterday.

Well beaten by several mollydee. Good research too on the Biffenator.

He's probably right about them not racing one another. Sepoy will have to step up to face the BC. Oakleigh Plate form suggests there's better opposition anyway after having the sit of the race.


A considered comment for discussion - by Round 12 we might have 2 wins.

I thought it was a poor ride for a horse with a lot of weight.

Apologies guys, I arrived in Brisbane just as the rain hit up there and returned to Melbourne as the storms hit last night, I think it's following me again.

The fact is that Sepoy is 3 ,already carrying top weight in Group1's .and is yet to peak . He didn't really have a chance to sit ,and the speed came from the back .You go and put all your money on BC then .Your favourite mare is a great sprinter .Tip me something less obvious to win and we'll see .You think Sepoys run was that bad-you know nothing about racing then .

HT -they still haven't raced each other have they? Fact.

  • PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

    With both sides precariously positioned ahead of the run home to the finals, only one team involved in Sunday’s clash at the Adelaide Oval between the Power and the Demons will remain a contender when it’s over.  On current form, that one team has to be Melbourne which narrowly missed out on defeating the competition’s power house Collingwood on King's Birthday and also recently overpowered both 2024 Grand Finalists. Conversely, Port Adelaide snapped out of a four-game losing streak with a win against the Giants in Canberra. Although they will be rejuvenated following that victory, their performances during that run of losses were sub par and resulted in some embarrassing blow out defeats.

  • NON-MFC: Round 14

    Round 14 is upon us and there's plenty at stake across the rest of the competition. As Melbourne heads to Adelaide, it's time to turn our attention to the other matches of the Round. Which teams are you tipping this week? And which results would be most favourable for the Demons’ finals tilt? Follow all the non-Melbourne games here and join the conversation as the ladder continues to take shape.

  • REPORT: Collingwood

    The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

  • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

    The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

  • POSTGAME: Collingwood

    Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.
