AFL - Round 1 (non MFC games)

Featured Replies

Stating the obvious here, but it shows just how half arshed the NAB challenge is. No one went near Cockatoo in the NAB, now he has no idea what he's gotten himself into.

I'm finding myself barracking hard for the Hawks and Chip here, I feel dirty. But Chip is forgiven. Best of luck.

Mitch Clark can go [THREE PARAGRAPHS OF CENSORSHIP]

Yeah I don't have an ounce of respect for Clark. Just another Borderline playing the sympathy card.

Shaw only got one week for Kent hit

Delidio the same - lucky imo

And unfortunately Bugg didn't get anything for his hit on Riewoldt

Watching the Hawks is bringing me back to Earth,suddenly Round 7 doesn't seem far away.


At the moment Clark must be feeling nothing much has changed since playing for us.

Looks like Clark's depression is spreading throughout the Geelong ranks.

Both the Scott brothers teams are getting absolutely towelled up round one!

Obviously it's only Round 1 so I could well be wrong, but I've always looked forward to seeing how Chris Scott would go once he had to develop his own side and not rely so much on what was in place before him. No coach will ever come into a coaching gig like he did with a club still at the peak or their powers.

This is just one game but they don't look all that flash.


Happy Easter, Scott brothers.


It hasn't kept rolling. It's rolled and stalled several times. It's hardly news that they're the best side of the current era.

Flags in every decade since the 60's

I would call that continuous success!!

 

I wasn't impressed with Clark much in the first quarter (when the contest was on). Thought he was sluggish and had no second efforts whatsoever. If he'd done that in Melbourne colours we'd be fuming at him.

Hard to blame him since then though, Geelong's been awful and Hawthorn's been, predictably, flawless. Good on Hawthorn for what they've done since 2004, but at some point the competition needs them to slide back to the pack and it's not happening.

  • REPORT: Carlton

    I am now certain that the decline in fortunes of the Melbourne Football Club from a premiership power with the potential for more success to come in the future, started when the team ran out for their Round 9 match up against Carlton last year. After knocking over the Cats in a fierce contest the week before, the Demons looked uninterested at the start of play and gave the Blues a six goal start. They recovered to almost snatch victory but lost narrowly with a score of 11.10.76 to 12.5.77. Yesterday, they revisited the scene and provided their fans with a similar display of ineptitude early in the proceedings. Their attitude at the start was poor, given that the game was so winnable. Unsurprisingly, the resulting score was almost identical to that of last year and for the fourth time in succession, the club has lost a game against Carlton despite having more scoring opportunities.

  • CASEY: Carlton

    The Casey Demons smashed the Carlton Reserves off the park at Casey Fields on Sunday to retain a hold on an end of season wild card place. It was a comprehensive 108 point victory in which the home side was dominant and several of its players stood out but, in spite of the positivity of such a display, we need to place an asterisk over the outcome which saw a net 100 point advantage to the combined scores in the two contests between Demons and Blues over the weekend.

  • POSTGAME: Carlton

    A near full strength Demons were outplayed all night against a Blues outfit that was under the pump and missing at least 9 or 10 of the best players. Time for some hard decisions to be made across the board.
