He said at qtr time there will be ramifications... Hahaha couldn't happen to a better club. To be fair it has been a terrible game since I switched on the tv. Both teams skills are very average, GWS keep turning it over going into Fwd half. Tigs are just putrid.

 

There seems to be a lot of Richmond supporters at the ground. Any one there who can tell?

If GWS win the flag, will anyone care (other than AFL HQ)?

I don't think though there are too many AFL Coaches on DL.

True, but it is not for want of trying (or advice) :)

Carlton winning all stats against the Hawks except the free kick count and the actual score


Sneaky suspicion that the Dorks will get rolled in the finals. I know they've been great (yadi yada) but they're an injury away from unravelling.

Rance is a sniper when things don't go his way, this myth of him being a super guy is well over blown.

Geelong in 14 did a similar thing. Won every close game, was like 3rd on the ladder despite play mid-table quality football all year. Got rolled in straight sets.

It's just an inkling at this stage JD. I don't think they are the best team in the competition this year if all teams play to their best. Loathe to say it but I think GWS will give it an almighty shake this year (hardly going out on a limb)


Just walk Dimma. It's over

This club will kill you. 

You are a good bloke who has obviously tried real hard. But it is done

will he go monday...?

Lowest Tigers score since the early 60s apparently......that ought to do it!

That moment you realise Tigers are just as bad as we've ever been.  At least we were conscious of our crapness lol. 

 

Will be a easy getting grand final tickets this year if GWS make it

    A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.

  • GAMEDAY: Fremantle

    It’s Game Day, and the Demons return to the MCG wounded, undermanned and desperate. Still searching for their first win of the season, Melbourne faces a daunting task against the Fremantle Dockers. With key pillars missing at both ends of the ground, the Dees must find a way to rise above the adversity and ignite their season before it slips way beyond reach. Will today be the spark that turns it all around, or are we staring down the barrel of a 0–6 start?

  • PREVIEW: Fremantle

    A month is a long time in AFL football. The proof of this is in the current state of the two teams contesting against each other early this Saturday afternoon at the MCG. It’s hard to fathom that when Melbourne and Fremantle kicked off the 2025 season, the former looked like being a major player in this year’s competition after it came close to beating one of the favourites in the GWS Giants while the latter was smashed by Geelong to the tune of 78 points and looked like rubbish. Fast forward to today and the Demons are low on confidence and appear panic stricken as their winless streak heads towards an even half dozen and pressure mounts on the coach and team leadership.  Meanwhile, the Dockers have recovered their composure and now sit in the top eight. They are definitely on the up and up and look most likely winners this weekend against a team which they have recently dominated and which struggles to find enough passages to the goals to trouble the scorers. And with that, Fremantle will head to the MCG, feeling very good about itself after demolishing Richmond in the Barossa Valley with Josh Treacy coming off a six goal haul and facing up to a Melbourne defence already without Jake Lever and a shaky Steven May needing to pass a fitness test just to make it onto the field of play.
