Whatever else happens today, the club should strongly consider playing all our NT matches in Alice, rather than Darwin. It's a normal Autumn day here - there's no oppressive heat or humidity, and the

You'd think we are losing by 15 goals to GWS. Stop your whinging. We are seriously playing amazing footy against the top of the ladder team. Of course we all want to win, but we should be extremel

Grimes, what an absolute liability. Right at the end there, I said tongue in cheek watch Grimes turn this into another Port goal... and he nearly bloody did!

Lucky we have Salem, Tyson and The Pedotrain playing like absolute legends.

The only way I could've been happier with that quarter was if a certain co-captain hadn't turned over a simple kick. I really would've liked us to press the momentum right at the end as well but I understand they wanted to preserve the score line. It really could've been all squared at half time though!

Massive man crush on Salem and Tyson!

Salem - class and coolness under pressure. THe ability to hit up that kick and keep his cool, we have something special here.

Can you imagine how much better we'd be as a team without Terlich and Grimes constantly making idiotic mistakes? We'd easily be in front by now.

Far out. Impressive effort by the other 16 to pick up the slack.

Grimes decision making and disposal is pathetic. he is constantly delivering the ball to the opposition or to players under pressure. not good enough. needs to lift big time. as for the rest of the team well done, we have a chance if we can just eliminate these stupid turnovers aka Grimes and Terlich's we have a chance. JHK needs to think a bit more about what he is doing we had momentum and the wind and we kicked it back and forth until we turned it over. Need to go down the line if in doubt, trust our guys will fight for it or try to get it out of bounds so we can reset.

The boys are playing as a team. Loving Matt Jones today and some very clever plays by Watts, Salem and Bail.

Pedo also having another strong game

Unbelievable half from us. Hard to see how I can walk away from this match disappointed.

Whatever happens, and I expect us to lose, we can be so proud of this effort.

Roos too did well to adjust our set up after quarter time.

We still make silly decisions and turn it over, but the midfield is an 800% improvement on last year, as is the effort and intensity.

Keep it going in the second half and we can all be incredibly happy.

I'm glad the Grimes reality has finally caught on.

Dumbest bloke we've had on the field in some time. He'd be last picked for mine.

Not to mentioned he's now even turned timid at the contest, always slowing down before he gets to the ball.

I love watching this team, yet Grimes is infuriating me and dominating my thoughts.

...anyway... The Jetta. Most improved? Giving everyone's love child a bath.

Pedo. Most improved? Marks everything.

Dunn. Most improved? Mr reliable.

See the theme here?

Last year this game would have been over 40 minutes ago, this year we fight like dogs.

Would be in front had they not gotten 2 BS goals.

Won't be surprised if we fall off in the last half. But I won't be surprised if we win either.

Roos is some bloke.

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well

    It's Game Day and the Dees are deep in the heart of enemy territory as they take on the Lions in Brisbane under the Friday Night Lights at the Gabba. Will the Demon finally be awakened and the season get back on track or will they meekly be sacrificed like lambs to the slaughter?

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last
