Whenever I see the name North Melbourne on the fixture, I get a nervous feeling in the pit of my stomach. Don't have it today but then, it's a late start when you play a twilight game.

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!

'Tis a pity Jordie didn't go harder...

McKenzie seems like the last bloke that would throw an elbow.

Seems like a top bloke on and off the field.

We should all be furious at Dawes if he cops his second suspension of the year. Not good enough fr a leader.

If Dawes cops a suspension. I give up. I seriously will give up

Jeremy Howe tries to mark far too often.

Colin Garland has been surpassed at AFL level.

tyson, M.Jones, and Viney are thinking all the hard work is done now we've won a few games. Leaving too much to too few.

Dawes spending too much time asking for free kicks, just compete big fella.

If I see one more midfielder bomb in straight to their loose man, I'll Jump through the screen and strangle him myself.

I cannot believe we are playing this poorly, the umpiring is horrific and we're down by 14 points. We need to win this game. God I want it.

Need to run a poll on which decision of that half was the most mind boggling:

- The high against Kent where the ump acknowledged he ducked but "you ran into him".

- The advantage given from the infringement at the centre bounce

- Cross getting his head taken off and getting done for a throw

I'm sure there's another contender.

This game always brings out my hatred for North.

Still annoyed they didn't take the bait to go to Gold Coast. That smug James Brayshaw rejecting that massive offer.

The AFL then decides to create not one but 2 teams! Compromised drafts and draws.

North are an irrelevancy to me.

At lease we appear to be in the game. I really enjoyed being at the G last week. Fingers are crossed but at home with the kids this week.

For the second week in a row, we have a "mid with only 2 possessions at half time. I'm happy for Roos to use Salem or Riley as the sub but we can't afford players who do a couple of 1%ers but don't get their hands on it for 3 quarters. I think it's about time for Michie and Blease to get a run instead of them for a few weeks.

    HALF FULL by KC from Casey

    It was a case of the Casey Demons going into a game with a glass half full in their match up against the Brisbane Lions at Casey Fields on Saturday. As the list of injured and unavailable AFL and VFL listed players continues to grow and with Melbourne taking all three emergencies to Perth for the weekend on a “just in case” basis, its little brother was always destined to struggle. Casey was left with only eight AFL listed players from who to select their team but only two - an out-of-form

    POSTGAME: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    Many warned that this was a danger game and the Demons were totally outclassed all game by a young Eagles team at Optus Stadium in Perth as they were defeated by 35 points.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 10 vs West Coast

    It's Game Day and the Demons have returned to the site of their drought breaking Premiership to take on the West Coast Eagles in what could very well be a danger game for Narrm at Optus Stadium. A win and a percentage boost will keep the Dees in top four contention whilst a loss will cast doubt on the Dees flag credentials and bring them back to the pack fighting for a spot in the 8 as we fast approach the halfway point of the season.

    WARNING by William from Waalitj

    As a long term resident of Waalitj Marawar, I am moved to warn my fellow Narrm fans that a  danger game awaits. The locals are no longer the easybeats who stumbled, fumbled and bumbled their way to the good fortune of gathering the number one draft pick and a generational player in Harley Reid last year. They are definitely better than they were then.   Young Harley has already proven his worth with some stellar performances for a first year kid playing among men. He’s taken hangers, k

    OVER YET? by KC from Casey

    The Friday evening rush hour clash of two of the VFL’s 2024 minnows, Carlton and the Casey Demons was excruciatingly painful to watch, even if it was for the most part a close encounter. I suppose that since the game had to produce a result (a tie would have done the game some justice), the four points that went to Casey with the win, were fully justified because they went to the best team. In that respect, my opinion is based on the fact that the Blues were a lopsided combination that had

    CENTIMETRES by Whispering Jack

    Our game is one where the result is often decided by centimetres; the touch of a fingernail, a split-second decision made by a player or official, the angle of vision or the random movement of an oblong ball in flight or in its bounce and trajectory. There is one habit that Melbourne seems to have developed of late in its games against Carlton which is that the Demons keep finding themselves on the wrong end of the stick in terms of the fine line in close games at times when centimetres mak
