I''m so sick of the absolute fawning about Rioli. Yeah yeah, he's a really good player but so sick of that fat [censored] Taylor gushing about him. Even in the last minute when Rioli didn't take a handball near goals, Taylor was blaming the handball.

For me Mitchell was BOG. An absolute freak. I hate to say it, but Frawley was sensational. Rivers was good last night too. As if MFC can afford to lose those players!!

It was a really good match. Glad Hawthorn lost.

i think the Hawks played well below their best, and wouldn't be all that concerned by the loss,

Luke hodge would have made a difference

Well below their best.....the game was a ripper, came back from six goals down against the Swans. Missed a few missed set shots that's all. Rioli was cm's away from winning it.

"Only Cyril can do that!!!"...after taking a pretty regulation mark one on one in the goal square, and played on and kicked the goal. See that happen in every bloody game.

Good player, but it was all a bit much.

and as I recall little or nothing was said at the time about his (certainly uncharacteristic) fumble in front of goal in the dying seconds.

swans were good but ultimately lucky

hawks had plenty of opportunities and blew them with bad (uncharacteristic) kicking for goal

still it shows that even hawthorn lose their composure if you apply enough pressure

maybe man-on-man football has a future as a game plan, especially against sides with more talent

    TRAINING: Tuesday 28th May 2024

    Veteran Demonland Trackwatcher Kev Martin returned to the training track to bring you the following observations from Gosch's Paddock this morning. Beautiful morning for training. The dew has dried, out from AAMI, quiet chatting. Maysie does his heart symbol. 7 in rehab, Turner, Hore, Sestan, BBB, Petty, Spargo and Schache. All in runners. Melky weighted and change of angles work. Salem has his individual program. White cap (no contact), Howes, Woewodin and Sparrow

    GALLANT by KC from Casey

    The world “gallant” is not one that is readily acceptable to losing teams in our game of football so when it was used in the context of the Casey Demons’ loss to Sandringham in yesterday’s match at Casey Fields, it left a bitter taste in the mouth.  The Demons went into the game against the St Kilda affiliated Zebras with the advantage of playing on their home turf (not that this has been a major asset in 2024) and with very little else going in their favour. The Saints have close to a full

    MEANWHILE by Whispering Jack

    … meanwhile, at about the same time that Narrm was putting its feet on the accelerator to obliterate the long-suffering Euro-Yroke combination, I heard someone mention in passing that Kuwarna was leading Waalitj Marawar by a whopping 46 to 1 halfway through the second quarter of their game over in Adelaide. “What is football coming to?” I asked myself.  In front of my eyes, the Demons were smashing it through the midfield, forcing turnovers and getting the footy to their forwards who w

    POSTGAME: Rd 11 vs St. Kilda

    After a very wasteful first half of footy the Demons ended up cruising to a clinical victory over the Saints by 38 points at the MCG and ultimately reclaimed a coveted spot in the Top 4.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 11 vs St. Kilda

    It's Game Day and after 2 losses on the trot the Dees must win against the Saints today at the MCG to keep in touch with the Top 4. A loss today will see them drop out of the Top 8 for the first time since 2020.

    HEAVEN OR HELL by The Oracle

    Clashes between Melbourne and St Kilda are often described as battles between the forces of heaven and hell. However, based on recent performances, it’s hard to get excited about the forthcoming match between these two sides. It would be fair to say that, at the moment, both of these teams are in the doldrums. The Demons have become the competition’s slow starters while the Saints are not only slow to begin, they’re not doing much of a job finishing off their games either. About the only th
