Recommended Posts

Is anyone elses head spinning?  Im trying to wrap my head around the awesomeness of what I just witnessed and the fact we have won 2 in a row and we arent a basket case any more and have an insane amount of talent and toughness

This may take some time to process

I fear you are right. Though how a deliberate foul act by Rance can be the same penalty as what Viney did, only the AFL and its stooges can say.

Ranges will get 1, and they can't give Viney the same so he'll probably get nothing. 

I'd be more worried aboutVince's short elbow to the head..

This is unacceptable and Paul Roo's needs to hand over the reigns NOW! How dare he ruin our records that we hold dear.... winning two on the trot is just not on.

I feel strange and don't know how to handle this situation... My dog is behaving oddly and is waiting for my normal end of weekend tourettes. Jeezus!

And Jack Viney get 3 votes for beaning Rance!

Go Dees!

Richmond fans saying he often thumps the ground in frustration... clutching at straws replay shows him looking directly at his head. What a scum bag, why the sympathy for him? I don't know Rance's history.. 

I just read that one.  Classic.

My son has noticed that Rance sometimes punches the ground when the opposition takes a mark on him. If you notice, he was not looking at Watts when he did it. Just wondering perhaps he didn't realise Watt's head was there as he slid over him. Totally out of character, that is why I suggest this even though it seems far fetched.

Rance = Rancid. Sniping reminiscent of Jimmy O'Dea on John Greening. 

 I think I need to you pull you up on that one. Rance was dumb and he will get a little time but he was not thumped behind play and put into a coma.

I'm liking the direction the game seems to be taking. A fair dose of mongrel exhibited amongst the play to go with the new game style.

If the AFL want to preserve the game, please don't sanitise it any further.

The balance is currently about right.

Happy with that.  If we can play like this all year we'll win more often than not.  The top teams will still have us, but we're right in the mix for the middle tier 

I will say I think Viney has just made a spot in the side for Petracca next week.  I can see he and Rance both going for a week. 

RUBBISH wasn't even a free kick

Too hard at the man. Too hard on the spread. We attacked with vigour from half back and we now have players capable of doing it who will only get better. They came at us multiple times sometimes due to our turnovers but we composed and bounced back each time.  Dom Tyson best game in a long time. Kent now starting to show what he can do over a game rather than cameos. The beauty is we won well and controlled the game and have much more improvement that will come with development and confidence even within is year.

Hogan with no goals but he took ten awesome marks

Hogan was great today, ran hard, chased, bought the ball to ground, stayed in the contest. 

he would be in the best handful on the ground had he kicked straighter

    FROZEN by Whispering Jack

    Who would have thought?    Collingwood had a depleted side with several star players out injured, Max Gawn was in stellar form, Christian Petracca at the top of his game and Simon Goodwin was about to pull off a masterstroke in setting Alex Neal-Bullen onto him to do a fantastic job in subduing the Magpies' best player. Goody had his charges primed to respond robustly to the challenge of turning around their disappointing performance against Fremantle in Alice Springs. And if not that, t

    TURNAROUND by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons won their first game at home this year in the traditional King’s Birthday Weekend clash with Collingwood VFL on Sunday in a dramatic turnaround on recent form that breathed new life into the beleaguered club’s season. The Demons led from the start to record a 52-point victory. It was their highest score and biggest winning margin by far for the 2024 season. Under cloudy but calm conditions for Casey Fields, the home side, wearing the old Springvale guernsey as a mark of res

    POSTGAME: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    Once again inaccuracy and inefficiency going inside 50 rears it's ugly head as the Demons suffered their second loss on the trot and their fourth loss in five games as they go down to the Pies by 38 points on Kings Birthday at the MCG.

    GAMEDAY: Rd 13 vs Collingwood

    It's Game Day and the Demons are once again faced with a classic 8 point game against a traditional rival on King's Birthday at the MCG. A famous victory will see them reclaim a place in the Top 8 whereas a loss will be another blow for their finals credentials.

    BOILED LOLLIES by The Oracle

    In the space of a month Melbourne has gone from chocolates to boiled lollies in terms of its standing as a candidate for the AFL premiership.  The club faces its moment of truth against a badly bruised up Collingwood at the MCG. A win will give it some respite but even then, it won’t be regarded particularly well being against an opponent carrying the burden of an injured playing list. A loss would be a disaster. The Demons have gone from a six/two win/loss ratio and a strong percentag

    CLEAN HANDS by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons headed into town and up Sydney Road to take on the lowly Coburg Lions who have been perennial VFL easy beats and sitting on one win for the season. Last year, Casey beat them in a practice match when resting their AFL listed players. That’s how bad they were. Nobody respected them on Saturday and clearly not the Demons who came to the game with 22 players (ten MFC), but whether they came out to play is another matter because for the most part, their intensity was lacking an
