    I've put $50 on us against my Pie mate. Winning has clearly gone to my head.

    This makes me a feel a bit better about my foolishness. Massive out along with Swan. Shut down Daisy and we're talking business.

    I thought Swan was close to coming back?

    Would you risk him a week before the bye?

    The Pies have bigger fish to fry, and coming back from a hammy is something that you wouldn't risk at this stage in the season. They didn't have him agaisnt us last year and we still got pumped!

    Unlucky for Pendles, I'd be lying if I said I was disappointed (for this week that is!).

    They won't bring back any of their injured players. They'll wait till after the bye and attack the second half of the year.

    As a result, they'll have a sub-standard team in.

    As a result, they only deserve to be favourites by a margin of about 50 points, instead of 75.

    I know we just won, but Collingwood is the premiership favourite, and deservedly so, and they are not weak as the proverbial in the wet, so even if it rains, they aren't going to wilt like Essendon did. If we play our best, and we attack the ball, spread, run, and all that, it could easily be a contest, maybe for a half, maybe for three quarters. Obviously after this round anyone can win, but we really have as little a chance as can be.

    I bet you couldn't believe your eyes when the organisers put him up at $560,000 at the start of the year? That was until you realised that they would give you that in credit if you put him in your team!!!

    Good news but they had a slew of players out last year and still pulled down our pants to give us the mother of all spankings. Last year was an embarrassment hopefully we can atone for that next Monday.

    He's out, but in comes Swan so they say, and more than likely Tarrant, but will Tarrant pull up well enough?Wwithout their two best mids and key defender the chances are raised slightly but as mentioned, wait for their mid tiers to destroy it, like Wellingham last year.

    I reckon Mark Neeld has had half an eye on this game for a while...

    Hopefully lightening will strike twice.

    McKenzie to Thomas now and he hates a tag (last year Dockers), likes to run with an unaccountable eg Ablett, Dangerfield

    Just watch Wellingham, Sidebottom, and Beams stand up.

    ^This. But I hope not.

    Wellingham had a day out last year, Beams is in form and Sidebottom is as slippery as they come these days; real quality.

    Swan could be included, so we will have our work cut out regardless.

    • The Clayton Oliver Thread

      Melbourne have held talks with Clayton Oliver and they’ve laid out where he fits in under Steve King’s vision and been frank about expectations. Oliver is still under contract for five years, but the door is open if he wants to explore his options elsewhere.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Essendon

      It’s Pink Lady night at Princes Park — a vibey Friday evening setting for a high-stakes clash between second-placed Melbourne and eleventh-placed Essendon. The wind-sheltered IKON Park, a favourite ground of the Demon players, promises flair, fire and a touch of pink. Melbourne has never lost a home-and-away game here, though the ghosts of two straight-sets finals exits in 2023 still linger.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 1 Steven May 

      The premiership defender has shown signs of wear and tear due to age, and his 2025 season was inconsistent, ending poorly with a suspension and a noticeable decline in performance. The Demons are eager to integrate younger players onto their list and have indicated that they may not be able to guarantee him senior games next season, in what would be the final year of his contract.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 2 Jacob van Rooyen

      The young key tall failed to make progress during the season, with a decline in his goal kicking output. His secondary role as a backup ruckman, which may have hindered his ability to further develop his game, and he was also impacted by the team's poor forward connection. It will be interesting to observe his performance under a new coaching regime.
