It's taken till half way through the 3rd quarter before they finally delivered a proper ball to one of their forwards.

Holly [censored]... this has got to be the worst team to win a flag. [censored] richmond and their supporters 

They are playing well tho. 

No excuse now that the MFC cannot make it....

It took a few weeks but this could be the karma for throwing the round 23 game. 

The way they are playing today, I don't think they thew it.  Tex has done nothing, just like 3/4 of the rest of their side.  Adelaide would have to be one of the flakiest minor premiours in a number of years.

This would have to be the most insipid performance by a team that dominated a season that i have ever seen. Not even giving a yelp. And if anyone thinks that Lever is worth even one first round pick then you have got rocks in your head. 

Agree with the first part.

But Lever is the only defender that's been half decent under pressure. Not perfect, but half-decent. Their other defenders are an absolute rabble.

This could start to get real ugly.

Tigers have played Grand Final footy; high pressure, contested. They've made mistakes but any time they have they've jumped straight back into the contest and won it back. 

Tigers are still definitely getting the rub of the umps but they've been in the contests for longer and that usually is rewarded.

I've been waiting all game to see some sort of game plan from Adelaide. Might get to see it in the last Q when Richmond is 50pts up and doing laps of honour... but geez. They have put in a shocker. No plan, no forward line, no idea.

No way does Martin get the Norm Smith medal. Houli by a mile. 

The Crows just so fumbly and overawed. I don't get the unrating of Lever. For the most part he has been onenof their better players.

Crows gone unless Tex steps up.

They've been poor up forward.

Expect it of Jenkins, I don't really rate him...watch him win them the game now that I've said that.

...but seriously he plays like a rover in a big mans body. Looking for the crumbs.

Nup, I was right the first time.

Leave him off the last Q, he's a total liability on the ground.

    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

    LIFE SUPPORT by Whispering Jack

    With Melbourne’s season hanging on a thread, Saturday night’s game against North Melbourne unfolded like a scene in a hospital emergency department.  The patient presented to the ward in a bad way. Doctors and nurses pumped life-saving medication into his body and, in the ensuing half hour, he responded with blood returning to his cheeks as he stirred back to life. After a slight relapse, the nurses pumped further medication into the bloodstream and the prognosis started looking good as the

    GAMEDAY: Rd 15 vs North Melbourne

    It's Game Day and it very well could be the last roll of the dice for the Demon's finals aspirations in 2024. A loss to the bottom side would be another embarrassing moment in a cursed year for the Dees whilst a win could be the spark they need to reignite the fire in the belly.
