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.

This is good for the tigers over confidence. I like them to remain mediocre . and I'd like Carlton to lose every game .

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

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.

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.

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

    DELUGE by KC from Casey

    The Casey Demons overcame their inaccuracy and the wet inhospitable conditions to overrun the lowly Northern Bullants at Genis Steel Oval in Cramer Street, Preston on Saturday. It was an eerie feeling entering the ground that in the past hosted many VFA/VFL greats of the past including the legendary Roy Cazaly. The cold and drizzly rain and the sparse crowd were enough to make one want to escape to the nearby Preston Market and hang out there for the afternoon. In the event, the fans

    INSANITY by Whispering Jack

    Somehow, the Melbourne Football Club managed it twice in the course of a week. Coach Simon Goodwin admitted it in his press conference after the loss against the Brisbane Lions in a game where his team held a four goal lead in the third term:   "In reality we went a bit safe. Big occasion, a lot of young players playing. We probably just went into our shell a bit. "There's a bit to unpack in that last quarter … whether we go into our shells a bit late in the game."   Well

    GAMEDAY: Rd 16 vs Brisbane

    It's Game Day and the Dees are deep in the heart of enemy territory as they take on the Lions in Brisbane under the Friday Night Lights at the Gabba. Will the Demon finally be awakened and the season get back on track or will they meekly be sacrificed like lambs to the slaughter?

    UNBACKABLE by The Oracle

    They’re billing the Brisbane Lions as a sleeping giant — the best team outside the top eight —and based on their form this month they’re a definite contender for September AFL action. Which is not exactly the best of news if you happen to be Melbourne, the visiting team this week up at the Gabba.  Even though they are placed ahead of their opponent on the AFL table, and they managed to stave off defeat in their last round victory over North Melbourne, this week’s visitors to the Sunshi

    WILDCARDS by KC from Casey

    Casey’s season continued to drift into helplessness on Sunday when they lost another home game by a narrow margin, this time six points, in their Round 13 clash with North Melbourne’s VFL combination. The game was in stunning contrast to their last meeting at the same venue when Casey won the VFL Wildcard Match by 101 points. Back then, their standout players were Brodie Grundy and James Jordon who are starring in the AFL with ladder leaders, the Sydney Swans (it turned out to be their last
