Our lack of run and pressure allowed the good Norfolk to emerge. Brisbane are fierce at the contest with a superior work rate.

I do not rate him as a coach/manager at all. He never looks like he's in control, and I think he's part of the reason they are so erratic.

I think we can talk about how bad our drafting/trading has been for ever and a day but really we all know how pathetic we have been and what's the point.

We can't change it and it's just getting really tiresome.

Don't get me wrong dd I'm not having a go at u (& I am guilty of it too) but I am over ALL our bad draft decisions.

It's in the past and can not be changed.

We r now in 2014 have a new regime in charge and for the first time in a long time I have complete faith in their ability.

IMO it's time for all of us to move on.

how was brad scott avoiding the question when asked what he said to Rockcliff. That was crap when he said he was congratulating him and some others.

Did it during Brown's speech too, his old teammate.

I hope Rockliff makes it known what was actually said. Brad Scott couldn't be a more detestable bloke.

This might be a weird question, but does anyone else think that Tippett may be in a bit of trouble (or get points) from the MRP?

He deliberately stuck his leg/knee out and collected Shaw in the head. How is this any different than if someone chose to hip'n'shoulder but made contact with the oppositions head?

We are a bottom four side. That is now obvious.

Yes there has been improvement but in 2012-13 we were sitting outside the AFL Comp.

Beat the Westies at Etithing and i could change my thinking.

Pretty much sums it up I think, based on form it's the only conclusion

I think no surely you have the right to protect yourself from an on coming charge but then again we have the MRP.

Beat me to it. What exactly was Neeld's philosophy, other than pissing everyone off?

It would be interesting were he wearing the red n blue - the MRP seem to find it amusing to try new stuff out on us.

Brad Scott - once a bully always a bully.

He will never admit (or even get) that he was way out of line. At most he will make a joke of it.

Well done Tom Rockliff for defusing the situation.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 15 vs North Melbourne

    It's Game Day and it very well could be the last roll of the dice for the Demon's finals aspirations in 2024. A loss to the bottom side would be another embarrassing moment in a cursed year for the Dees whilst a win could be the spark they need to reignite the fire in the belly.

    THE HUNTER by The Oracle

    Something struck me as I sat on the couch watching the tragedy of North Melbourne’s attempt to beat Collingwood unfold on Sunday afternoon at the MCG.    It was three quarter time, the scoreboard had the Pies on 12.7.79, a respectable 63.16% in terms of goal kicking ratio. Meanwhile, the Roos’ 18.2.110 was off the charts at 90.00% shooting accuracy. I was thinking at the same time of Melbourne’s final score only six days before, a woeful 6.15.51 or 28.57% against Collingwood’s 14.5.89

    FROZEN by Whispering Jack

    Who would have thought?    Collingwood had a depleted side with several star players out injured, Max Gawn was in stellar form, Christian Petracca at the top of his game and Simon Goodwin was about to pull off a masterstroke in setting Alex Neal-Bullen onto him to do a fantastic job in subduing the Magpies' best player. Goody had his charges primed to respond robustly to the challenge of turning around their disappointing performance against Fremantle in Alice Springs. And if not that, t

    TURNAROUND by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons won their first game at home this year in the traditional King’s Birthday Weekend clash with Collingwood VFL on Sunday in a dramatic turnaround on recent form that breathed new life into the beleaguered club’s season. The Demons led from the start to record a 52-point victory. It was their highest score and biggest winning margin by far for the 2024 season. Under cloudy but calm conditions for Casey Fields, the home side, wearing the old Springvale guernsey as a mark of res

    PREGAME: Rd 15 vs North Melbourne

    After two disappointing back to back losses the Demons have the bye in Round 14 and then face perennial cellar dweller North Melbourne at the MCG on Saturday night in Round 15. Who comes in and who goes out?
