did dawes hit someone in the head again. People are talking about it on twitter.

Geez Bernie is having a day out. 25 possies and 3 goals.

People or halfwits?

To half time Melbourne has turned the ball over 7 times and the Roos have scored 7 goals from it.

We need to tighten up big time in the second half.

Also think Mckenzie might be in a bit trouble with the elbow to Thomas(I think) face who went down like a cheap suit.

The only thing I can think for his defence is that he was trying to tackle another player and swung his arm around to effect the tackle.

Just saw the replay of the incident and he wasn't trying to tackle and will get a couple I would think.

IMO he should be let off just cause of who he hit.

The umpires my god can they actually see or are they blind.

My god they have been deplorable.

Cannot believe they are sponsored by OPSM. Hopefully it includes a free eye check.

Half-time and we're only 14 points down despite being smashed for the second week in a row. We need to grow a collective brain during the break and play the way Roosy wants us to. Clean up our disposal and we can beat this umpire-loving, free-kick staging bunch of girlie-boys.

This is everything wrong with Grimes' game, it's ok to critique it as a collective but not single someone out because they're a captain?

Grimes and Garland killing us with mistakes across half back. Garland was so reliable the last couple of years, been woeful since returning this year.

I'd move Garland forward to man up their spare man, could take a mark and kick a lucky goal.

Far too many passengers. Cross and Jones keeping us in it.

Same candidates butchering the ball and making crap decisions.

Yes Grimes is number one! Too slow for Harvey.

Grime needs to start playing like a captain.

Terrible decisions by a lot today, M Jones has been poor in his decisions, Grines is a terrible option on Harvey, Tmac is one of the worst kicks and I tremble every time he gets the ball.

So many players can lift.

I hate North.

Scott Thompson is an actor, who dived down and Dawesy clipped him.
Thompson was a major [censored] when i use to play against him in junior footy and he is a [censored] now still.
He actually broke my arm when i was younger by swing tackling me after i got rid of the ball, there's a fun fact for ya.

Apart from the usual cr@p kicks and turnovers, we are also playing extremely loose.

This reminds me a lot of last week. If we don't start to control the midfield we will get smacked.

God damn I loath North Melbourne. A bunch of sooks. Lindsay Thomas needs a good smack in the face!

People are pretty personal with Grimes. Critiquing the team is appropriate because the whole team is guilty of it. Critiquing Grimes is also appropriate, but I don't think it needs to be so harsh.

Good to know you don't hold a grudge 'Song'.

What a [censored].

Scott Thompson, Brent Harvey, Lindsy Thomas.

Easy to see why people dislike North.

Love it how Lindsy stayed down for about 30 seconds before getting up. You just know that he is a soft [censored].

North: the team of stagers, divers and divas. Good to see Kent give that dumbass ump a serve for that idiotic ducking free kick paid against him.

Of course, umps are so blind they fall for their Oscar worthy performances week in, week out. Fortunately you can't act your way into a premiership, which they'll never get close to.

Oh how I'd love to win today just to get them out of the top 8, yet the result would be Essendon moving to 8th place. What a miserable conundrum.

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
