AFL Round 1 - Non MFC Games (2017)

Well it all kicks off again tomorrow night with the underwhelming Carlton v Richmond clash at the MCG.

Can't see either of these clubs getting out of the bottom 6 myself...

A lot of support coming for Richmond but personally I wouldn't be surprised to see Carlton get up and that would really set the 'Dimmer' season off with a bang.

I think the Blues have a stronger midfield and if they can get on top there then anything can happen.

I like the look of Weitering (can we get in his ear), the 2nd coming of Pav and am interested in the debut of Sam P-S a classy young kid.

I guess it's a bit macabre but a Richmond loss and the accompanying fallout does appeal to me.

 

 

see the bummers are doing there walk to the G. They said not sure if Turd will show up. I bet he is there front and centre grinning with the bummers fans fawning over him. Hope the hawks thrash them. 

Richmond losing tonite would be wonderful. Also hope the bullies give collwood a hiding. Neither of these will happen though.

 

like that the comp starts with a game between traditional rivals... be better if it were between melbourne and st kilda at the G obviously...

While I hate supporting Carlscum, I would LOVE to see the Tigers get rolled tonight.  It would be glorious!


AFL 2017 starting of with possibly the worst game of the year class wise. Just look at the 2 lists....................................... vomit.

Lots of interest though, and i will be happy whoever loses.

Would be freaking hilarious.  Their supporters are already talking top 4 LOL

They better warm up their microwaves, they are no sure thing vs the Blues.

 

Geeez 43 for the brown naggers pulled out of going back with the flight letting Martin take and easy mark in the lead.

think the afl website has crashed, page wont load, so cant get a live radio stream..

 


Couldn't have 2 more contrasting thoughts on players.

Simpson, one player I really enjoy watching and would have loved to see in the Dees jumper.

Rance, one player I cannot stand to watch play the game. When it doesn't go his way he takes it out on others.

Armfield haircut remind me of a mid 90's toadfish from neighbours.

Reminds me of one of the "moles" from Romper Stomper.

Yes well im stuck at work, dont have a radio..... so ill keep trying...

Very open game. Richmond will win by 7 or 8 goals unless Carlton can somehow turn it into more of a scrap.

That Petrevski-Seton looks a good young player, seems to be in  the camera frame all the bloody time.

Thanks

I'm overseas and I thought they might have put a geo blocker on it... just ridiculous

Luckily it is not the most interesting game of the year... scores are 45-27 Tigers way

  • PREVIEW: Carlton

    Good evening, Demon fans and welcome back to the Demonland Podcast ... it’s time to discuss this week’s game against the Blues. Will the Demons celebrate Clayton Oliver’s 200th game with a victory? We have a number of callers waiting on line … Leopold Bloom: Carlton and Melbourne are both out of finals contention with six wins and eleven losses, and are undoubtedly the two most underwhelming and disappointing teams of 2025. Both had high expectations at the start of participating and advancing deep into the finals, but instead, they have consistently underperformed and disappointed themselves and their supporters throughout the year. However, I am inclined to give the Demons the benefit of the doubt, as they have made some progress in addressing their issues after a disastrous start. In contrast, the Blues are struggling across the board and do not appear to be making any notable improvements. They are regressing, and a significant loss is looming on Saturday night. Max Gawn in the ruck will be huge and the Demon midfield have a point to prove after lowering their colours in so many close calls.

  • REPORT: North Melbourne

    I suppose that I should apologise for the title of this piece, but the temptation to go with it was far too great. The memory of how North Melbourne tore Melbourne apart at the seams earlier in the season and the way in which it set the scene for the club’s demise so early in the piece has been weighing heavily upon all of us. This game was a must-win from the club’s perspective, and the team’s response was overwhelming. The 36 point win over Alastair Clarkson’s Kangaroos at the MCG on Sunday was indeed — roovenge of the highest order!

  • CASEY: Werribee

    The Casey Demons remain in contention for a VFL finals berth following a comprehensive 76-point victory over the Werribee Tigers at Whitten Oval last night. The caveat to the performance is that the once mighty Tigers have been raided of many key players and are now a shadow of the premiership-winning team from last season. The team suffered a blow before the game when veteran Tom McDonald was withdrawn for senior duty to cover for Steven May who is ill.  However, after conceding the first goal of the game, Casey was dominant from ten minutes in until the very end and despite some early errors and inaccuracy, they managed to warm to the task of dismantling the Tigers with precision, particularly after half time when the nominally home side provided them with minimal resistance.

  • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

    The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.
