Crows might top our 148 point loss here, looking pretty bad for the Giants, in the 4th quarter and the scumdog millionaire has 8 touches.

I cannot get my head around the fact we were 3 goals down to them at three quarter time. On our home ground. That is absolutely shameful.

 

Definately a good day to see our young fellas up against theirs....should be a good match

They played better that day - that's what happens with young teams.

Next week, they might get to within 5 - 7 goals of the Hawks. Remember, they were leading the Bombers by a long way.

It happens.

It's crazy isn't it, I mean the crows aren't even that good, can't see them making the 8 this year without Tex

Davey late in for Tommy Mac. Davey sub

Good.

We needed a runner and needed to drop a tall and unlike most others on the team Davey can use the footy.

If they get within 5 goals of the Hawks, I will eat my hat. My nicest hat.

I can see Geelong beating them by 200 points at Skilled.

Melbourne in from 2.15 to 2.05 on TAB sportsbet in the last hour. Flood of money :lol: :lol:

I hope you don't have to chow down on your hat.

Won't be 200....Cats will stay in first gear all day.

60 - 80 points.
 

the wet will suit our game style, gold coast have good skills and stuff but we play scrappy contested football, so the conditions and ground are in our favour


Have just driven down from the bush for my first game this year and signed up to be a member for the first time ever. Its worth signing up just to have a chat to the very lovely young girls selling the memberships:)

Might have to sign up twice.

Go dees

I put a hundred on the Dees earlier today. Full time /half time double @ $2.75

Smart bet, we have jumped them every time we have played them.

Did gerard Healy just call gold coast the gold c*nts and call our coach Craig neeld? Wow...

Tommy mac is out due to shoulder - davey in...

Interesting no Davis for Tom. Would have thought its his perfect chance


Another massive Neeld error. For several days the weather forecast has been for late rain. As I look at the radar it would seem that we are in for a very wet game. Simply we are way to tall for wet conditions. There is no excuse for this. It is an incredibly unprofessional error. My opinion of Neeld has again dropped. He is a disaster

We will get smashed due to the midfield dominance of GC and lack of beneath the knees agility due to playing too tall for the conditions.

Maybe this will be Neelds last.

Shut-up FFS!!!!! Boooooooooorrrrrrring!!!!

I'm not that greedy, 187 will do


I am turning off the commentary on Fox Footy - the negativity astounds me.

Was that Max Gawn with NO BEARD in the rooms?

No love from any of the commentators today, but that's okay; they're all hacks anyway.

PS Max Gawn's had a shave, so I think we're officially fuzz-free across the board. The closest thing to a beard on any of our players is Jeremy Howe's customary 5 o'clock shadow.

 

Two things. Dermott B picking the Suns by 65+ is just a joke. Carlton only got it done by 40.

Sellar will play a good game if he's positioned down back.

Yeah, it's almost like a televisual version of Demonland ;-)

  • 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.

    The Demons return to the MCG to take on the High Flying Hawks on Saturday Afternoon. Hawthorn will be aiming to consolidate a position in the Top 4 whilst the Dees will be looking to take a scalp and make it four wins in a row. Who comes in and who goes out?
