AFL - Round 4 (non MFC Games)

What an absolute pleasure it is to consider the prospect of following the remainder of this round knowing we have the four points from last night in the bag?

The first game today starts in a little more than an hour at Westpac Stadium in Wellington NZ between two of my least loved opposition clubs in Carlton and St. Kilda - it promises to be a boring contest. I hope the players follow the example of those Collingwood players and eat lots of steak in the land of the long white cloud :lol:

The Aints running out of juice again...

Have free tickets for the GWS/GC 'Blockbuster' at Manuka this evening.

With thunderstorms forecast and Gaz not playing the only reason it might be worth going is for the opportunity to abuse $cully....

I'll be there.

McCartin barely touched it before being subbed out. The commentators were (rightly) saying that it takes big forwards up to 4 years to find their feet.

It really puts Hogan's start to the year into perspective. He's a monster.

Usually watch ANZAC Day game without much caring who wins.

Can't believe I am hoping for a Pies win.

Just can't bear to see EFC cheats win a game so heavily linked to the ANZAC's

This is a terrible game, both Pies & Dons making laughable mistakes.

Interesting to see umps giving the druggies an armchair ride. Would have thought the opposite.

But the Bummers have been so BRAVE through it all...just like the ANZACs

I feel dirty.

We were in the eight until that last goal.. Bloody Daniher

Deplorable kicking by both sides even when no pressure and before the rain. EFC's drug supply must have run out. Terrible to have to barrack for the Pies.

Heppell is a star isn't he. Makes you wonder how he lasted so long in his draft year...until you remember the nefarious shenanigans the Peptides put together to ensure he fell...

Can't believe he goes untagged week after week!I Couldn't help but wish that either Jones/Vince/Viney do a job on him when we play them :blink: Sorry if that sounds a bit nasty :wacko:

I love to see Viney or Vince mess with his coiffure.

the only time i go for the pies. I hate the bummers more so happy to see them lose. Watching that today I cant believe hawthorn lost to them. Weekend is off to a good start dees win bombers lose and if the storm get up then it will be even better.

Posted

Couldn't believe how poor the ball handling was, particularly from EFC...

I know it was wet but really, we're talking professional footballers. I thought we handled the conditions so much better last night.

Posted

I watched the Pies Game this afternoon Still cannot bring myself to type that other lot.

I have seldom seen a more useless player at AFL level than Brodie Grundy.

God deliver the Pies if they need him to lead them to a flag.

He make Spencer look like Brownlow candidate

Oh almost forgot.

That other mob got done

Ha Ha

Having watched our mighty team prevail last night and the Bombers vs. the Pies this afternoon, we could well have a very good year. Both "finals contenders'" and they were both rubbish! Bring it on!

    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.
