Fark me Rance is the greatest and most courage defender of all time according to these blokes.

Welsh for all of his $$$ sounds like a deadchit. 

So good to see Howe playing as a defender.

Genuinely a VFL standard game. We'd be six goals up against either team by now.

Let's not get too cocky CB, we'd be 15 up.

 

Watching Collingwood and Richmond and I just don't rate either of them 

The mistakes are amazing 


Jeremy Howe was very good last week, and has started very well tonight.

Howe apart from his brilliant marking disposal and decision making I will never miss, what gets me is the praising from the commentators?? No good if you are just going to turn it over?

 

Prestia has very ordinary foot skills  


Can't see either coach seeing out the season 

Jeez Prestia is quite ordinary by foot.. Thank god for Oliver

One of them has to win ... not sure which one I want but I think Tiger supporters show more outrage in loss ... so I think I will go for the Pies


Based on the first half, we would beat both of them comfortably. Very sub standard - mid list at best!

This is putrid.

That Caddy kick into their fwd line was one of the worst misses of an open player you'll ever see.

Hoskin Elliot is Cale Morton in a Collingwood jumper.

Still think Richmond will be good this year?

Ok il cop this one..

 

Treloar's kicking is going to be an issue for them.  Not just that disgraceful OOTF shot on goal, but the up-and-under field kicking is really poor.  He's repeatedly created pressure out of nothing because his kicks are so slow getting to their target.

  • PREVIEW: North Melbourne

    Can you believe it? After a long period of years over which Melbourne has dominated in matches against North Melbourne, the Demons are looking down the barrel at two defeats at the hands of the Kangaroos in the same season. And if that eventuates, it will come hot on the heels of an identical result against the Gold Coast Suns. How have the might fallen? There is a slight difference in that North Melbourne are not yet in the same place as Gold Coast. Like Melbourne, they are currently situated in the lower half of the ladder and though they did achieve a significant upset when the teams met earlier in the season, their subsequent form has been equally unimpressive and inconsistent.

  • REPORT: Adelaide

    The atmosphere at the Melbourne Football Club at the beginning of the season was aspirational following an injury-plagued year in 2024. Coach Simon Goodwin had lofty expectations with the return of key players, the anticipated improvement from a maturing group with a few years of experience under their belts, and some exceptional young talent also joining the ranks. All of that went by the wayside as the team failed to click into action early on. It rallied briefly with a new strategy but has fallen again with five more  consecutive defeats.

  • CASEY: Coburg

    The Casey Demons returned to their home ground which was once a graveyard for opposing teams but they managed to gift the four points on offer to Coburg with yet another of their trademark displays of inaccuracy in front of goals and some undisciplined football that earned the displeasure of the umpires late in the game. The home team was welcomed by a small crowd at Casey Fields and looked right at home as it dominated the first three quarters and led for all bar the last five minutes of the game. In the end, they came away with nothing, despite winning everywhere but on the scoreboard and the free kick count.

  • PREGAME: Rd 18 vs North Melbourne

    After four weeks on the road the Demons make their long awaited return to the MCG next Sunday to play in a classic late season dead rubber against the North Melbourne Kangaroos. Who comes in and who comes out?

  • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

    The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.
