Please. Liam Jones played 5 minutes of football last night.

Watching carlton last night from the half way point of the 2nd Q was just the same as watching us over the last 8 years

They have no forward line. For some reasons they sold it all

So why did you call it early and say Richmond would get belted ? Ha ha!

If he had concentrated on landing correctly instead of staging for a free kick he would not have sustained the injury. Another example of current day players not protecting themselves whilst looking for free kicks.

Spot on.

I know Levi Casboult's kicking is woeful but I'm wondering if this was the reason for his ommision from the Carlton team this week. They really did need a target up forward.

Mick said he didn't kick a goal at all during 3 NAB Cup games, so that may have been a reason. Still a little baffling considering they went hard to keep him when his stock rose towards the end of last season.

Wait, let me get this straight - are you trying to suggest that supporters on here would be salivating at the thought of Liam Jones playing for us?

You're having a laugh. A total spud of a footballer. Thankfully the footy department thinks the same and clearly wouldn't go near him with a 50 foot pole.

We have drafted much worse over the years...He is still relatively young for a key forward.

Yes it was an early call & Richmond were horrible at the time.

(They kicked 2 goals minutes after i posted it. Could have deleted the post. But i left it up there for a laugh) :)

Mark Stevens just confirmed that Daisy Thomas would need surgery. 12 - 16 weeks.

He also cemented his friendship with Mick at last night's post-game press conference.

Malthouse can be a real sook with the media, but Stevo clearly wasn't listening to his answers.

My prediction of Carlton finishing bottom 2 is looking good.

What did they trade for Jaksch, early days but didn't really show much at GWS either. Looks no better than Watson.

Pick 7 for pick 19 (Boekhurst), Jaksch & Mark Whiley.

Could still get some value out of that trade, but for a top 10 pick?

I'd expect more.

Trolololol Essendon.

They've completely stopped since halfway through the third quarter (they led by 41!). Not surprising, no pre-season for half of them.

Sydney looked pretty poor early, good opponent for them to work themselves into form.

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo. The play start time was brought forward from the initial 11am bounce, due to the high temperatures forecast.  The match sim will consist of four 25-minute qu
