    Port 19.11.125 d Pies 7.16.58.  Cloke had a shocker 0.1

    Bucks will be ropeable!!

    I guess next week depends on which Pies team turns up and which Demon team turns up.

    We would have to go in confident given that we beat them in 2015 and 2016

    What do people think about West Coast?

    There's the whole home and away thing, but look at who they've played at home - Brisbane, Fremantle, Richmond, Collingwood, St Kilda, Gold Coast. That's 6 of the bottom 7. It's no wonder they're winning by so much at home.

     ST KILDA
    Player Injury Estimated Return
    Jack Billings Ankle Test
    Sam Fisher Hamstring TBC

    And Billings and Webster are playing vs the Crows!  Their list is a joke and their absolute best team is getting annihilated

    Eagles are a mess, they are lazy, and good teams ie Hawks/Dogs can pick feeble zones apart.

    While statistically it could all change, short of some big surprises:

    • Final 8 is set (but not the order): 
    • Port will most probably stay on 9th as Crows have a game and good % over them.
    • We will play it out with Carlton for 10th and 11th.  Could come down to rnd 22.
    • The rest are a game and big % behind us.

    Its rather deflating but the only real intrigue for us now is how many wins and who we will beat!

    They keep kicking to contested situations, at times it's a must, where as the Dogs work their way end to end by working harder to spread and find free men.

    Fair call on the 8.

    The fact we can't make it at the halfway point will be a good mental test for us. Those who drop their heads and give up can [censored] right off, no exceptions.

    Carlton will annihilate St Kilda next week on current form. It's mindboggling, but they actually look like finishing well above us on the ladder this year.

    I know...that just  #@!!! with my head.  Bolton, one year  ( not even ) with that rabble has got them actually up and about despite a fair share of injuries.

     

    We, with our sooper dooper  you beaut "plan"  still see-sawing ..  I know we;re heading in the right direction but we just got overtaken by bloody  Carlton FFS !!

     

    Carlton could possibly win 5 more games for the year.. They've a BETTER chance than we have on current offerings.

    No Goddard nor Paddy most likely. They may as well stay home

    • REPORT: Sydney

      A few weeks ago, I visited a fellow Melbourne Football Club supporter in hospital, and our conversation inevitably shifted from his health diagnosis to the well-being of our football team. Like him, Melbourne had faced challenges in recent months, but an intervention - in his case, surgery, and in the team's case, a change in game style - had brought about much improvement.  The team's professionals had altered its game style from a pedestrian and slow-moving approach, which yielded an average of merely 60 points for five winless games, to a faster and more direct style. This shift led to three consecutive wins and a strong competitive effort in the fourth game, albeit with a tired finish against Hawthorn, a strong premiership contender.  As we discussed our team's recent health improvement, I shared my observations on the changes within the team, including the refreshed style, the introduction of new young talent, such as rising stars Caleb Windsor, Harvey Langford, and Xavier Lindsay, and the rebranding of Kozzy Pickett from a small forward to a midfield machine who can still get among the goals. I also highlighted the dominance of captain Max Gawn in the ruck and the resurgence in form in a big way of midfield superstars Christian Petracca and Clayton Oliver.

    • POSTGAME: Sydney

      The Demons controlled the contest from the outset, though inaccurate kicking kept the Swans in the game until half time. But after the break, Melbourne put on the jets and blew Sydney away and the demolition job was complete.

    • CASEY: Northern Bullants

      The Casey Demons travelled to a windy Cramer Street, Preston yesterday and blew the Northern Bullants off the ground for three quarters before shutting up shop in the final term, coasting to a much-needed 71-point victory after leading by almost 15 goals at one stage. It was a pleasing performance that revived the Demons’ prospects for the 2025 season but, at the same time, very little can be taken from the game because of the weak opposition. These days, the Bullants are little more than road kill. The once proud club, situated behind the Preston Market in a now culturally diverse area, is currently facing significant financial and on-field challenges, having failed to secure a win to date in 2025.

    • GAMEDAY: Sydney

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons have a golden opportunity to build on last week’s stirring win by toppling Sydney at the MCG. A victory today would keep them firmly in the hunt for a finals spot and help them stay in touch with the pack chasing a place in the Top 8. Can the Dees make it two in a row and bring down the Swans?
