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

Mckenzie has already obliged.

The only thing it wasn't hard enough.

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

    i hold a grudge like the best of them.

    I was having a ripping season until he did that too. Never forgotten.

    When Barry Hall almost made his eyeballs pop from his head by giving him a head-lock i couldn't have been happier.

    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.

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

    We can win this easily

    [censored] i hate North they are such pretenders

    Yep, they are pretenders, but we can never beat them.

    We always make sides like North look great.

    And we make good players like Harvey - look like champions.

    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.

    I am roughly the same age as him.

    I am just so mature with my posts that i seem to be wise beyond my years.BigPoo.gif

    Haha, well played.

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

    I can handle losing to a good team. What I can't handle is losing to a bunch of frauds who rely on cheap tactics to get free kicks. I despise North that little bit more now. I hope we win!

    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.

    Everytime McDonald has the ball, my stomach sinks knowing that the opposition is about to get another possession.

    • PREVIEW: West Coast

      It was bad enough that the Melbourne Football Club created yet another humiliating scenario inside its wretched season at Marvel Stadium last Sunday, but the final insult is that it has been commanded to return to the scene of the crime to inflict further punishment on its fans this week. Incidentally, if this match preview, of a game that promises to be one of the most unattractive fixtures in the history of the game, happens to cut out of your computer screen three quarters of the way through, it’s no coincidence. I’ll be mirroring the Demons’ lacklustre effort against St Kilda from last Sunday when they conceded the largest last quarter turnaround for victory in the history of the game.

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.

    • CASEY: Sandringham

      The Casey Demons rebounded from a sluggish start to manufacture a decisive win against Sandringham in the final showdown, culminating a quarter century of intense rivalry between the fluctuating alignments of teams affiliated with AFL clubs Melbourne and St Kilda, as the Saints and the Zebras prepare to forge independent paths in 2026. After conceding three of the first four goals of the match, the Demons went on a goal kicking rampage instigated by the winning ruck combination of Tom Campbell with 26 hitouts, 26 disposals and 13 clearances and his apprentice Will Verrall who contributed 20 hitouts. This gave first use of the ball to the likes of Jack Billings, Bayley Laurie, Riley Bonner and Koltyn Tholstrup who was impressive early. By the first break they had added seven goals and took a strong grip on the game. The Demons were well served up forward early by Mitch Hardie and, as the game progressed, Harry Sharp proved a menace with a five goal performance. Emerging young forwards Matthew Jefferson and Luker Kentfield kicked two each but the former let himself down with some poor kicking for goal.
      Young draft talent Will Duursma showed the depth of his talent and looks well out of reach for Melbourne this year. Kalani White was used sparingly and had a brief but uneventful stint in the ruck.

    • PREGAME: West Coast

      The Demons return to the scene of the crime on Saturday to face the wooden spooners the Eagles at the Docklands. Who comes in and who goes out? Like moving deck chairs on the Titanic.
