Umps rule of the week, Hawks blocking off the mark.

Free kick Hawthorn

 

But the Dogs have kicked themselves out of the contest.  No way they can get back from here.

And of course the MRP will ignore Breust's high contact in a marking contest.  Chose to bump, eyes off the ball.  Head high.   Nothing to answer.  Dirty mongrels.

And just like that the Dogs are back in it ... game on!

Whew! How good was that last 5 minutes?  Don't often find myself barracking like a lunatic in neutral games, but my heart is fully committed to a Bulldogs win.

What a hero Crameri is!

Kinda gives you a scary insight into how the Essendon players will be welcomed back by Channel 7 next year.

It has taken a while for the Doggies to settle, but when they do, boy they play entertaining footy. Their mass tackling, chains of handballs, and risk taking is breath-taking. And Bontempelli - his awareness round a pack and ability to find a way through with enough time to produce an elite kick; he is becoming the kind of footballer I would pay to go and see even if the Dees not playing. 

But is still goong to be very difficult to beat Hawthorn from here.

Looks like Hawks are tiring late in quarters and doggies get a bit of a  run.

Should be a fascinating end!

Yep, chose to leave the ground and his shoulder made contact with Picken's head.

What does he do.............stays down on the ground feigning injury so as to either not give away a free kick, or was scared he may be remonstrated against. SOFT.

Of these two teams, win or lose  the Dogs are the future.

Totally agree. We have the airbrushing by the AFL and media of the doping scandal.  These guys should not be welcomed back as heroes.

I don't think I've ever been to invested in the outcome of a match where I'm a neutral. Come on Doggies!!!

 

Unfortunately Stevic is worth another 3 goals to Hawthorn with his dodgy umpiring, just you wait and see.

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

We'll break down the Match SIM against North Melbourne and wrap up the preseason with insights into training and our latest recruits.

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo. The play start time was brought forward from the initial 11am bounce, due to the high temperatures forecast.  The match sim will consist of four 25-minute qu
