MOBILE PHONE HACK REVEALS Text message from Paul Roos to John Longmuir during the half-time break of St.Kilda v Sydney - "Yeah, Longsy, we're rolling here, better knock St Kilda out for us"

A lot of the peanuts in the media have overlooked that 3 teams outside the 8 can still make it. Even Derwayne said the best we can finish this year is 9th about twenty times in last week's game. Cluel

interesting listening to howe post-match on abc - he still hankers to play forward.

 

he's a natural defender, i don't know why he's got such a bee in his bonnet around playing closer to goal.

Because it's far easier for lazy players to play forward and have everyone else do the work for them.

Collingwood is a gift that keeps on giving. There were times last night when they got on top and I thought about their big scalps this year and how they've been lucky to have played against those teams at the right place and the right time. The Doggies have been really in trouble with injuries and were ripe for the picking but they got up ... bless them.

Another close game, another loss to the pies ... ahhhhhhhhhhhhh ... what a start to the weekend. Could only have been improved by a dodgy late umpiring call but the bugg ers actually called a few late ones for the pies, correctly!

Clear holding free not paid to Pies in marking contest near goal last 20 seconds. Seriously disappointing the way the umpires "throw away the whistle" in close finishes. What? So the rules are optional now?

Were you even watching? Sidebottom was robbed of a clear holding the arm free in the last minute.

No, I made it up. I guessed that it was Collingwood and Bulldogs were playing.

 

Holding off the ball? the umps have barely paid one all season. It's like it's not even in the rules.

I know Norf getting belted helps our finals chances but watching the Hawks happy is making me sick.

Think of it more that the small number of Nought Supporters are feeling suicidal right now...

Norf getting smashed is right up there with the Richmond smashing dished out by GWS.

North getting belted. If we can get up tonight we move one step closer. I thought finals this year was 0% chance to happen a few weeks back, but who knows now! KEEP FIGHTING DEES!

    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

    ALAS SPRINGS by Whispering Jack

    I got the word on Saturday from someone who knows someone inside the Fremantle camp that the Dockers were pumped and supremely confident about getting the W the next day against Melbourne at TIO Traeger Park in the red heart of the country. I was informed that the Dockers were extremely confident for a number of reasons. They had beaten the Demons on their home territory at the MCG at their last two meetings so they didn’t see beating them at Alice Springs as a problem. They belie

    POSTGAME: Rd 12 vs Fremantle

    The Demons were blown out of the water and were absolutely embarrassing against the Fremantle Dockers in Alice Springs ultimately going down by 92 points and getting bundled out of the Top 8 for the first time since 2020.
