JLT Community Games - Non MFC

Thought it might be good to have a thread for random comments on the games we're not involved in...

Last night both teams looked pretty average.

Tonight...can't see Harry staying forward for too long. The Cats defence is very average now that Enright's gone, they're not good enough to have Harry as a luxury forward.

Also, without 3rd man up they don't have a ruck combination that works. Selwood and Danger will be knackered at the end of the season holding this crew up.

 

And how good is it to see Roughy in full swing?  Colours aside, here's a man that would've gone through hell, like man, many others in less profile positions than him, but his fight and determination has seen him get back to the top of his game.

An inspiration.

 

Sorry, but T-shirts??? 

They look like thugby players

Agree. The Tommy Hafey look is just not right.

13 degrees in Hobart at the moment... perhaps Geelong were a little chilly

 

Game was played in Launceston, so it would've been balmy!

 

 

my apologies

always thought the university of Tasmania was in Hobart but the wonders of naming rights ... it is the old Blundstone Oval..no wait.. it was the old Aurora stadium or was that York Park

Hell perhaps it was in Antarctica and who is JLT

UTas has a campus in Launceston.

Launceston = York Park = Aurora Stadium = UTas Stadium
Hobart = Bellerive Oval = Blundstone Arena

Not saying anything we don't already know but GWS have a lot of great young talent.

As you can only play 22 on any given game, I would think that Stevie J, Griffen and even Delidio would not be guaranteed a game this year.

If they do get the nod ahead of some of the young kids like Taranto then they are hindering the kids development.

Interesting times ahead.

Apart form Tyson we have taken some GWS cast offs...maybe it's time to get into some these kids before they are established.

I spent a couple of weeks traveling around Tasmania over new years, bloody spectacular place.

Nasty hip injury to GC17's Sam Day - sucked on one of those sticks on ground the pain was so bad.

If he dislocated it, from first hand experience I can say it is very painful.

I understand BBO has done the same injury a few times...

The first week proved beyond doubt that we're top 4 material (so far) ...

GWS Giants 1 - - 70 37 189.2 4
Gold Coast Suns 1 - - 81 57 142.1 4
Collingwood 1 - - 105 94 111.7 4
Melbourne 1 - - 92 86 107.0 4
- - - - -  - - - - - - - -  - - - - - - - - - - -
Hawthorn 1 - - 98 94 104.3 4
North Melbourne 1 - - 65 63 103.3 4
Sydney Swans - 1 - 63 65 96.9 0
Geelong - 1 - 94 98 95.9 0
Western Bulldogs - 1 - 86 92 93.5 0
Essendon - 1 - 94 105 89.5 0 
Brisbane Lions - 1 - 57 81 70.4 0
West Coast Eagles - 1 - 37 70 52.9 0

St Kilda looking a bit scary early. 

And of course they play at Shitihad- why aren't they playing at a suburban ground like erryone else??

  • REPORT: Geelong

    I was disappointed to hear Goody say at his post match presser after the team’s 39 point defeat against Geelong that "we're getting high quality entry, just poor execution" because Melbourne’s problems extend far beyond that after its 0 - 4 start to the 2025 football season. There are clearly problems with poor execution, some of which were evident well before the current season and were in play when the Demons met the Cats in early May last year and beat them in a near top-of-the-table clash that saw both sides sitting comfortably in the top four after round eight. Since that game, the Demons’ performances have been positively Third World with only five wins in 19 games with a no longer majestic midfield and a dysfunctional forward line that has become too easy for opposing coaches to counter. This is an area of their game that is currently being played out as if they were all completely panic-stricken.

  • PREGAME: Essendon

    Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

  • NON-MFC: Round 04

    Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

  • POSTGAME: Geelong

    The Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, falling to 0–4 after a more spirited showing against the Cats at Kardinia Park. Despite the improved effort, they went down by 39 points, and the road ahead is looking increasingly grim.
