Richmond are so overrated, and they wonder why they can't win a final.

I can't stand Collingwood either but if Tigers lose tonight the mental demons set in, as will the media caravan.

I think the skill errors will be far more common now with the interchange cap, as player get a little more tired the skills will drop off slightly

PG its been terrible from the opening bounce. 

Has Clokey been subbed off? He used to gobble up those bombs Into the fwd 50.

Tigs with injury issues.

This is dreadful. Hate to say it, but Curry is right. Given our back end of the season, we really need to make the most of playing teams like this when they are absolutely rubbish

The standard of this game is very poor and these two get to do it all over again on a Friday evening later in the season. At that stage it might well be a battle of the also rans.

What is even worse is that The drug Cheats have THREE, that's right, THREE Friday night games while we have ZERO. Next Friday against Port should be a good advert for the game, Later in the season we can all watch them 'play' against the dorks and then still later they play the ex-druggies, WCE.

Justice?

Remember when we used to get blockbusters on Friday nights?

All jokes aside this needs to be addressed next year.

What a poor quality game of footy. Like a game of keepings off where no one is winning. 

So much for attacking footy being back

To be fair, they are the teams which constantly pull 60-70k

God that is terrible. There needs to be a voice of reason when they book in the fixture. Play the best games not the "biggest" teams supporter base. It is turning neutral fans off.

Do not rate. Will have a career comparable to Toumpas imo.

Not to blow my own trumpet here but this is my preview of the game posted last Monday in the "different preview" thread.

First up on Friday night at the G - Pies Vs Tiges.

Dear oh dear, I have already read someone describing this as a ‘Blockbuster’. Some people have no imagination, intelligence or common sense and most of them are sports reporters (I'm looking at you, Robbo.). Pies not only got pantsed last week but the Swans had time to wash, dry and iron them before giving them back in individually wrapped cellophane baggies. Some of the players were seen carefully folding the baggies for later use. Rumour has it that Eddie has a club sanctioned barber coming in to shave all players heads. Hair testing….good luck with that.

The Tiges will fancy their chances against the Inepts only because they were slightly less inept in their draw against the Boos.

I just hope these two do not sully the sacred turf with their collective ineptitude.

Prediction: Tiges by 2 goals, they may be the only two goals of the match.

I'm happy to say Trealor looks ordinary. As soon as he put on a Collingwood jumper it would seem. He seriously has little, to no intensity and neither do Collingwood. He's just jogging around. Richmond are turning it over with almost unforced errors.

    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. 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
