Watch out I don't play fair. I bite like Chris Lewis and punch like Alex Rance.

    I think the topic should be are we loading our players, tapering is the end result.  You load up you program and then taper off to get the full positive effects.

    I don't think we have, I think we have just come to the end of our season.  We play high intensity football, not the most naturally talented side we have to work hard to win games.  I think our players are done and will be surprised if we win 1 of our last 3. I hope I'm proven wrong but since the first half V Port, which Is the best half we have played for a long time, we have been flat.

    Just about sums it up Dr.  

    I suspect your diagnosis is correct. From what I have observed I will not be seeking a second opinion.

    I'm not sure if our ability to convince ourselves about literally any bollocks in order to see the upside is my favourite or least favourite thing about Demonland. 

    This thread ?

    The opposite of MFCSS.

    For the record I don't think we are, but I was wondering whether it could be a reason why we have dropped off so dramatically.

    We have to win 7 straight to win the flag....7. Just saying.

    So, if every match was genuinely a 50/50 contest, we'd be a 1 in 128 chance to win the Grand Final.

    Best odds for this time of year in over a decade.

    • NON-MFC: 2026 Opening Round

      Finally the 2026 AFL Premiership Season is upon us. While Melbourne sits out Opening Round, there is still plenty of footy to enjoy with five non-MFC clashes to kick off the new season. It all begins on Thursday night with a blockbuster at the SCG as Sydney hosts Carlton in what should be a strong early test for both sides. On Friday night, Gold Coast gets its chance to open the season in front of a home crowd when the Suns and Christian Petracca take on Geelong at People First Stadium. Saturday features a double-header, starting in the afternoon with Greater Western Sydney and Clayton Oliver meeting the Hawks at Engie Stadium. That is followed on Saturday night by Brisbane Lions hosting the Western Bulldogs at the Gabba, with the Lions embarking on their campaign to win the Threepeat. Opening Round wraps up on Sunday night at the MCG, where St Kilda takes on Collingwood in the only game in town in the first week of the season. There is no shortage of storylines across the round, so discuss all the action from the non-MFC games of Opening Round.

    • PREGAME: St. Kilda

      With just over two weeks until their opening match of the 2026 AFL Premiership season, the Demons are already well on the path to redemption and have the Saints firmly in their sights ahead of their mid-March clash at the MCG. What do you think the team will look like when they run out on to the G?

    • REPORT: Richmond

      Mars is not usually a place known for lighting strikes but on Friday evening it happened twice in the vicinity of the stadium in Ballarat that carries the name and is a half completed building site with limited capacity for spectators.

    • POSTGAME: Richmond

      The Dees ran another clinic for the second week in a row as they easily accounted for the Tigers in the lightning interrupted shortened match at Mars Stadium in Ballarat.

    • GAMEDAY: Richmond

      It's Game Day and the 2026 AFL Premiership season is almost upon us as the Demons take to the field for their final practice match before the first ball is kicked in anger in 16 days time. What are you expecting to see from the Dees today as they take on the Tigers at Mars Stadium in Ballarat?
