I think class is exactly what we're lacking. I do think it will click eventually, but I'm expecting big losses for the next 3 rounds and we'll be heading into the GWS clash with confidence at an incredible low. I know we are more than capable of thrashing teams like GWS, but as of now, I struggle to see it happening.

with blease and watts begining to hit their straps, hopefully the rest can follow suit. Jamar will start rucking to adv while howe will start kicking straight. Gysberts will be back in after the bye and suddenly we have a bit more silk. Optimistic? Maybe but I still think we can get something out of this season

    Strangely, I'd rather beat North over the other 3 clubs.

    I'd be happy with that too.

    Purely to send Brad Scott into meltdown.

    He's far too smug when refering to us.

    Anyone. I just want to hear the song post-game. Can't wait to see, albeit on television, the players sing it in the clubrooms after. I'm craving that footage!

    The problem with beating Collingwood is that all their supporters would rabbit on about how Melbourne treats a game against Collingwood like a Grand Final. I'd prefer a win over Carlton.

    I do not care it is still wonderful beating them

    actually I like losing

    winning is just another form of bullying and an extension of regressive childhood behaviour

    i think joan kirner had it right

    we should be lobbying vlad to bring in kirner-rules and cease the keeping of scores in all afl games

    .....just extractingb the urine (fpor those gullible readers)

    Actually I think this may be the right way to go DC

    You are onto something here

    We have got too much class and ability to lose to gws and gold coast, even when we play brisbane and port im expecting wins because we have seen what melbourne are capable of. It will eventually click and it will start this week. Everyone will see the 'wheel' begin to move in the direction we all want it to.

    If that is what gets you through the night Jonesbag.

    But it is delusional, we do not have more class than GWS just a wee bit older

    I'd hope that the likes of Clark, Jamar, Moloney, Jones, Frawley can help make easy of GWS and GC, but I'm not so sure anymore.

    At our best, we'd blow GW$ out of the water by 100+ points. Unfortunately, we haven't been at our best since Round 13 last year.

    Bombers without a doubt. They need to be taken down a few pegs.

    Yeah the way their fans were waving their scaffs around after the win against west coast..... you would have thought they handed out premierships in may?!!

    Essendon no contest.

    Go over to Bomberblitz and see the arrogant disdain with which they hold us.

    I can't blame them. We've been a joke too long to remember.

    At least now we have a coach who won't tolerate any Red & Blue jumper wearing player, not putting his head over the bloody pill.

    Carlton, dear god Carlton.

    I would buy everypaper and read every article, tape every footy show where I might see/hear/read them say how bad the blues were.

    Oh wishful thinking.

    I reckon Ratten'll go season's end if they loose to us this week.

    • NON-MFC: Round 07

      Round 7 gets underway in iconic fashion with the traditional ANZAC Day blockbuster. The high-flying Magpies will be looking to solidify their spot atop the ladder, while the Bombers are desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top eight. Later that evening, Fremantle will be out to redeem themselves after a disappointing loss to the Demons, facing a hungry Adelaide side with eyes firmly set on breaking into the top four. Saturday serves up a triple-header of footy action. The Lions will be looking to consolidate their Top 2 spot as they head to Marvel Stadium to clash with the Saints. Over in Adelaide, Port Adelaide will be strong favourites at home against a struggling North Melbourne. The day wraps up with a fiery encounter in Canberra, where the Giants and Bulldogs renew their bitter rivalry. Sunday’s schedule kicks off with the Suns aiming to bounce back from their shock defeat to Richmond, taking on the out of form Swans.Then the Blues will be out to claim a major scalp when they battle the Cats at the MCG. The round finishes with a less-than-thrilling affair between Hawthorn and West Coast at Marvel. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • REPORT: Fremantle

      For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

    • CASEY: UWS Giants

      The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

    • PREGAME: Richmond

      The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?

    • 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.
