How bad are BT and Channel 7?

Unfortunately it is a snow job, should have expected as much. Look forward to more rubbish coverage next year.

Amid all the talk of tanking and drugs it's good to hear that Sandy Roberts has left "7" for Fox where he will get back to hosting and calling football.

IMO he has been sadly missed in football and it is yet another poor decision by "7" not to recognise this and use his talent when they are crying out for quality people. They are in danger of making the same mistakes made by "9" and we can see how it led them to the brink last year.

Good to have you back Sandy.

Damn, looks like I shouldn't believe all I read in the media. Fairfax seem happy with themselves to have one over News.

'The Buz' seems to think the move is still on.

I hope so, it would be good to have Sandy back involved in the footy. A very good operator with a good sense of humour and not up himself like some others. BT, Darcy, Lynch, Lyon, Lloyd, Wilson, Healy.... not enough time for a complete list.

At least we won't have to listen to BT crapping on about the bloody "Weapon" this year. Boy oh boy wowee !

In fact, if it wasn't for BT's obsession, I'd have no idea who the "Weapon" is. Or that apparently there's a "football factory" in Geelong...

I live near Geelong and I've been searching for the "football factory" - yet to find it! I'll keep searching!

  • 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.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: #3 Christian Salem   

    Salem proved to be a valuable contributor as a reliable and solid one-on-one medium-sized defender in what was undoubtedly his most impressive season since the premiership year. He remains a highly capable rebounding option for the Demons as he approaches his 200th game at the club.
