This is bullshhit. Why aren't Carlton getting smashed yet?

Maybe because of last week. Swans will obviously win and win well but some of their players will be going through the motions after last weeks epic encounter. Maybe 80-100 but I would be expecting a repeat of 186.

Simpson gets Buddy in a tackle, spins him around three times before finally falling off. No free, Buddy runs off and kicks a clean i50. The MFC supporter in me wanted to cry out in despair, that is EXACTLY the kind of thing that happens to us when we suck.

Swans have had such a good run with the umpires tonight (not that they needed it).

Fell asleep at quarter time so I don't really know but perhaps it was because the umpires decided to be spectators as well.

Good to see Evans and his umpires have tightened up the holding the ball interpretation 'Nasher'...

Amazing that Dustin Fletcher's son is only a couple of years off being eligible for F/S. Has there ever been a father and son play together at AFL/VFL level?

Wow. Saints are already ahead of us. How depressing.

Just like the Bulldogs, right? I mean, with their wins over Sydney, GWS, Adelaide, West Coast, we'd be no chance of beating the Bulld...

Oh, wait.

I am sure this has something to do with unconscious bias on behalf of the umpires, not just the better players, but the better teams seem to get more latitude than the poorer teams - but then that just might be my own bias.

Settle down, they have beaten GC and the Dogs like we did. They got flogged by Carlton. They might beat Brisbane today who are a rubbish team.

Not sure exactly what changed between the second and third quarters, but whatever it was, you'd hope Roos etc. were paying attention.

West Coast are playing a shocker today.

21 scoring shots to 7. I haven't seen the game but on that basis I'd suggest Geelong are lucky to only be 9 points behind.

    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

    PODCAST: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    Join us LIVE on Monday night at 8:30pm—note that this special time is just for this week due to prior commitments. We'll break down the Match SIM against North Melbourne and wrap up the preseason with insights into training and our latest recruits. I apologize for skipping our annual season review show at the end of last season. After a disapponting season filled with off-field antics and a heated trade week, I needed a break. Thankfully, the offseason has recharged me, and I’m back—ready t

    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
