This is our most important match in a decade.

I'm sick of the fact that we have not won a game at Etihad in a decade...

Sick of the fact that we haven't beaten North in the same amount of time...

Sick of the fact that we don't win two in a row...

The time is now...

Like Richmond last week we need to make a stand...

Gut running, hard contested footy...

North will fold faster then Superman on laundry day...

Finally as a club we need to say... "Stuff there rest... we're here to be the best!'

Wow, it has really been that long.

I have vivid memories of games against North many years ago, as far back as the Daniher years, where everything seemed to be in our favour but somehow we just couldn't win.

A lot of the time it came down to their 'really tall talls', who on the day would just be able to clunk marks and kick straight. It troubles me a little that we are still a bit light-on for genuinely tall defenders (unless Fitzpatrick or Oscar comes along very quickly).

That said, the last time we beat them Nathan Thompson kicked seven, put them in front but then had to drag himself to the bench for a chunk of the final quarter, exhausted. As much as we won that game in the final minutes, I'm hoping this time we have something better than "wait until their key forward has worn himself out from kicking so many goals".

I agree, this 'knowing where the match is being played' stuff has to stop now

Yeah we should be more like Hawthorn and not know where we're playing next week. Works for them.

I'll meet you at bay 13 at Etihad! I'll bring the radio in case its not there.

We play NM at the MCG.

Sure, let's get positive: so then let's kill off two of the monkeys on our backs this week, (NM and successive wins) and the other the following week v Dogs at the Doglands.

Would we have some happy campers then??

gotta think of things 'that will get in' SWYL, into they're heads... irritating things they won't like. & do not think these things don't get back to who they are about. they do.

the roos are soft, in the head, they are fragile, they are blue, & they crack, Mrs Marsh is just the tonic that will irritate any young hopping mad Roo.

& her liquid does get in, see the add.

    WARNING by William from Waalitj

    As a long term resident of Waalitj Marawar, I am moved to warn my fellow Narrm fans that a  danger game awaits. The locals are no longer the easybeats who stumbled, fumbled and bumbled their way to the good fortune of gathering the number one draft pick and a generational player in Harley Reid last year. They are definitely better than they were then.   Young Harley has already proven his worth with some stellar performances for a first year kid playing among men. He’s taken hangers, k

    OVER YET? by KC from Casey

    The Friday evening rush hour clash of two of the VFL’s 2024 minnows, Carlton and the Casey Demons was excruciatingly painful to watch, even if it was for the most part a close encounter. I suppose that since the game had to produce a result (a tie would have done the game some justice), the four points that went to Casey with the win, were fully justified because they went to the best team. In that respect, my opinion is based on the fact that the Blues were a lopsided combination that had

    CENTIMETRES by Whispering Jack

    Our game is one where the result is often decided by centimetres; the touch of a fingernail, a split-second decision made by a player or official, the angle of vision or the random movement of an oblong ball in flight or in its bounce and trajectory. There is one habit that Melbourne seems to have developed of late in its games against Carlton which is that the Demons keep finding themselves on the wrong end of the stick in terms of the fine line in close games at times when centimetres mak

    The Demons were blown out of the water in the first quarter and clawed their way back into the contest but it was a case of too little too late as they lost another close one to Carlton losing by 1 point at the MCG.

    MELBOURNE BUSINESS by The Oracle

    In days of old, this week’s Thursday night AFL match up between the Demons and the Blues would be framed on the basis of the need to redress the fact that Carlton “stole” last year’s semi final away from Melbourne and with it, their hopes for the premiership.  A hot gospelling coach might point out to his charges that they were the better team on the night in all facets and that poor kicking for goal and a couple of lapses at the death cost them what was rightfully theirs. Moreover, now was
