Rance just gave away a 50 for smacking a bloke in the head after he'd already marked it. He might be the biggest dog in the AFL. Such a scumbag!

He just poked a guy in the eye as well. He's one of the dirtiest players of the modern era but no one ever says a bad word about him. Very frustrating!

Doggies are all over them now and probably will win. Might finally get a tip right for the weekend!

Not only that, the bloke is seriously in love with himself. Narcissist.

Not nearly as much as Brooocce is.

You must have been a defender and you may be right about 12 wins for the eight. This year is tight.

That last decision was a total joke. The player touched the ball as he was tackled. It was never in control

12 wins could well be Gold this year

Richmond would have lost three straight if we weren't two men down against them.

They are rubbish and wont play finals.

We still should have beaten them. We certainly outplayed them.

Deliberate out of bounds is an absolute joke

Agree on that last one. It was a fumble. At first I thought he threw it out but why would he deliberately throw it out when his team needs a goal. Makes the loss more funnier. The tigs have dropped down to 6th now. WC have found themselves in the top 4. God knows how. 

But I think the talking point is Geelong and there loss to Gold Coast. That was a very good win by them. 25 points. Wow. 

This is why tomorrows game is so important. We keep in touch with those teams.

My compliments to Port, quietly going about collecting a new improved thugs backline with their tilt towards this year's Flag

If we win tomorrow we are 1 win from 2nd position.

And there will be one game separating 2nd from 10th on the ladder.

I said that last night. I think they will be one of the teams to be competing for eight spot. Geelong have been exposed as well but will make the eight. The current 6 teams outside the 8 will all be in or  within striking distance at round 20.

How does a team get paid deliberate against them when they have 40 secs to go, its in their forward line and theyre down by 4 pts?

Because he deliberately put the ball out to force a reset in the forward line.

Looked pretty clear on first viewing to me.

Possibly, but I thought it was a fumble..

Was definitely deliberate, not even debatable.

Can imagine the Tiger fans melting down over it though. Warms my heart.

I had a good laugh hearing Hardwick in his press conference ticking off other 'top 8' teams they've defeated as proof they aren't pretenders, including us. What absolute [censored] -- he knows they only won against us because we were two down on rotations and got supremely lucky with injuries. They are finally getting found out and it's fantastic.

It's not as if they got absolutely pants tonight.

However, I do share your enthusiasm.

It was still immensely disrespectful towards us. We win that Anzac Eve match comfortably without those injuries in Q1, no question.

Dogs absolutely smashed them in general play for 3 quarters, just couldn't put it on the board.

And whoever thought up that ridiculous tactic of playing Lin Jong in the ruck should be put in stocks outside Footscray Market and pelted with rotten fruit and veggies the whole week.

Richmond play a bludger's game - super-flood their defence, then attack via breakaways. Their fans call it "rope-a-dope" because it relies heavily on the other side playing stupid and not thinking it through. It's the way you play when you got nothin'. Once they get worked out, like Port did in 2014 (?), they'll reach their true level.

As a complete side note after reading the Carlton/Collingwood match report, I was pondering the etymology of the nickname 'Blue Baggers'. 

A google search came up with: 

noun

  • a person who is so ugly that one would have to put a bag over their head (so as to hide their face) before considering having intercourse with them. See also double-bagger.
    That girl I met at the club was a total bagger.
 
 
Can anyone shed further light on this important matter?

Cats and Tigers both lost two straight.

We are coming for a spot in the eight, nobody is safe.

It was only a matter of time. Both teams are pretenders. Be nice if Adelaide lose two straight too. :P

    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

    Join us LIVE on Monday night at 8:30pm—note that this special time is just for this week due to prior commitments. 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
