Just said on the abc that Neeld spoke to the commentators and was disappointed about what was written in the paper regarding cook and gysberts and that they are both still on the list. Can't remember the exact words, but they write not directly from Neeld anyway.

    For those watching on tele - what do you make of the comments at half time about Cook?

    The commentator (Donegan I think) said they had just spoke to Neeld, who said that he was very unhappy with the papers for reporting that Cook is finished at Melbourne.

    Are reports of his demise greatly exaggerated?

    Silly comment. Casey finished top of the ladder mate. MFC have shafted them a little with the amount of senior listed players that they've pulled out.

    Bit of payback for Fev last year! Really hindered Cook's development :unsure:

    Thats why when I say Gina Rhinehart is a fat ,disgusting and ugly excuse for a whale that I cannot be sued .

    When the media reports falsities about players leaving they should be sued and made to pay compensation.

    False reports like this can damage the actual team .

    Hey KC, I've only seen 4 or 5 Casey games this year, but I've never seen them go backwards so much, what's the go with that you reckon?

    Tim Smith,on the run, gets Casey's third goal late in the quarter. That goal saves them from having the lowest score of the season but they're still 40 points down.

    Tim Smith kicks a goal for Casey.

    Likely looking type, good size, hard at the contest, looks fairly young. What's his story anybody? KC? Worth trying, even just for preseason training?

    Smith's having a good year but he's in inconsistent during games. It would probably be worth giving him a try in the pre season for a rookie spot.

    Hence why it is a joke, the fixture is a shambles and we just pull all our players out once our season is over. I should have mentioned it was also be better for Casey.

    Why would the fixture be any different if we weren't aligned?! Also, if MFC weren't in the finals we'd still pull out players. And I fail to see how minor premiers Casey would be "better off"?

    Not that it matters but the rain is coming down and is negating the wind advantage Casey would have otherwise had. The umps miss a free to the Scorps and the Seagulls kick the first goal of the final quarter.

    • NON-MFC: Round 09

      Round 9 kicks off out west with the Dockers hosting a Collingwood side resting several stars. Fremantle need to make a statement on their home deck after some disappointing form on the road, while the Magpies will be keen to maintain their Top 2 position. Friday night sees a must-win clash between two sides desperate to stay in touch with the eight. St Kilda have shown glimpses while Carlton are clinging to relevance after a flat start to the season. Saturday’s twilight game at Marvel pits the Bombers against a struggling Sydney outfit. Essendon can’t afford another close match against a lower-ranked side, while the Swans risk sliding down the ladder even further. Up in Darwin, the fourth-placed Suns will look to extend their stay in the top four. The Bulldogs have hit their stride with three big wins on the trot and will be very keen to consolidate on their momentum. The always fiery Showdown looms as pivotal for both clubs. Adelaide are eyeing a spot in the Top 4 with a win, while Port Adelaide’s season could slip away if they drop another game and fall further behind the pack. Sunday begins with a yawn fest between Richmond and West Coast. The Tigers need to bank the points to stay clear of the bottom two, while the Eagles are still chasing their first win of the year. The Giants face one of the league’s toughest road trips as they travel to GMHBA Stadium to face the Cats. With GWS at risk of a third straight loss, Geelong will be eager to consolidate their position inside the eight and start their climb up the ladder. The round wraps up with the top-of-the-table Lions heading to Ninja Stadium to take on the second-last Roos. The Lions should easily take care of the struggling Roos who might be powerless against the best in the comp. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • PREVIEW: Hawthorn

      Melbourne and Hawthorn who face off against each other this week have more in common than having once almost merged and about to wear a blue jumper with a red v triangle and an embroidered picture of a bird on the front. They also share the MCG as their main home ground, their supporters are associated with the leafy suburbs of Melbourne and in recent times, James Frawley graced the colours of both teams. Even more recently, both have bounced back from disastrous five game losing streaks to start off a season. Of course, the Hawks turned their bounce into a successful leap from the bottom of the ladder into a finals appearance, making it to the semifinals in 2024 and this year, they’re riding high in third place on the AFL table. The Demons are just three games into their 2025 bounce back, and are yet to climb their way out of the bottom four although they are sitting a game and percentage out of the top eight. However, with the current sportsbet odds of $3.90 to win this week’s encounter, it seems a forlorn hope that their upward progression will continue much longer.

    • REPORT: West Coast

      On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.
