Wagner and Stretch both not playing for Scorps? Or have I missed them out there.

Do we think Oscar will be a late out for Wags?

Got a feeling both O Mac and Vince will not play

I don't know about anyone else but I've has enough of getting beaten by this mob. It's time.

I already posted this in the preview thread, but North losing to Port has kept us in touch with the 8, even if barely. A win also puts us a game clear of St Kilda, Collingwood and Richmond. This

Congratulations to Jack Grimes in his 100th game today.  Hope he plays a blinder.

If that were the case, Bugg wouldn't be playing for scorps. We would be resting all 3 emergencies.

They always need a back up for a pre-game injury.

Nope - Always closed for 3.20 games supposedly (thank god).

This season isn't dead yet. Screw our record against the Saints and at Etihad, now is the time to show we're better than these pretenders and put them to the sword.

Agree, we win today and we're just as good a 'sneaky' chance for the 8 as the media is reporting Port to be today.

Frost out (ill).  Wagner in.

Shortens our back line a bit which is unfortunate. 

Hope Oscar's ankle doesn't bother him too much because he will need to do some running.

A wonderful subject to be sure Josh, but perhaps you could be a little more specific in the focus of your discourse.

Interesting that O-Mac and Wagner are back there, and both might be underdone. Against Riewoldt, Membrey and Bruce, who are in pretty good touch.

Could be a real shoot out as their defence is rubbish too...

HAVE to win in the middle.

Great opportunity for White to stamp his name on a game. Many on here rate him, I'm yet to see enough to have a solid opinion but he hasn't disappointed in his first couple. I'd like Roos and co to resist the urge to push Grimes back and stick with structure

Frost has been excellent lately. I think he's really developing into something. Will be mssed.

Simon Goodwin just mentioned that Angus Brayshaw was told to lose a bit of weight at the start of the season as he was bit 'chubby'... During the time he was out with concussion he had to train extremely hard to lose 4 kilos.

Didn't mind indulging in soft drink from time to time Goodwin mentioned.

Closed. Who would want to watch footy in the sun on a sunny day?

    LIFE SUPPORT by Whispering Jack

    With Melbourne’s season hanging on a thread, Saturday night’s game against North Melbourne unfolded like a scene in a hospital emergency department.  The patient presented to the ward in a bad way. Doctors and nurses pumped life-saving medication into his body and, in the ensuing half hour, he responded with blood returning to his cheeks as he stirred back to life. After a slight relapse, the nurses pumped further medication into the bloodstream and the prognosis started looking good as the

    GAMEDAY: Rd 15 vs North Melbourne

    It's Game Day and it very well could be the last roll of the dice for the Demon's finals aspirations in 2024. A loss to the bottom side would be another embarrassing moment in a cursed year for the Dees whilst a win could be the spark they need to reignite the fire in the belly.

    THE HUNTER by The Oracle

    Something struck me as I sat on the couch watching the tragedy of North Melbourne’s attempt to beat Collingwood unfold on Sunday afternoon at the MCG.    It was three quarter time, the scoreboard had the Pies on 12.7.79, a respectable 63.16% in terms of goal kicking ratio. Meanwhile, the Roos’ 18.2.110 was off the charts at 90.00% shooting accuracy. I was thinking at the same time of Melbourne’s final score only six days before, a woeful 6.15.51 or 28.57% against Collingwood’s 14.5.89

    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
