I cannot remember a season in which so many of  the games have been so bad to watch. 6-7 times already this season I have sat down to watch some footy (not the Dees, just trying to relax) and have switched it off. I actually switched the Commonwealth Games on, only to have to choose between synchronised diving, rhythmic gymastics or basketball!!

Carlton v North on a Saturday night - give me a break.

Agree,  I watched a movie instead and I normally enjoy whoever is playing on Sat night  ,  shocking scheduling.

Oh yes, we were just as bad....

You and others beat me to the punch. I think people forget. I remember rocking up to relentless shite week after week. And it's not a lifetime ago. Still, onwards and upwards...hopefully.

Carlton have scored under 100 points in their last 35 games.

You and 50, 000 others. Which is exactly why the contention that Channel 7 would actively encourage the AFL to give Carlton such times slots is so off the mark. Unless of course you think they have got confused and are actually trying to achieve low ratings.

This is down to the AFL.

Port v bombers ... hoping for a Port win (lesser of two evils)

Normally I would go for the Bombers opponent out of principle.

But if they beat Port and we beat the Hawks by 40+ we will go to the top of the ladder.

Bombers off to a flying start ... 30 points up on Port

and Daniher has hardly had a touch

port looking super poor today - just not running as they have in the preseason and the first few rounds

Port are shizen under any pressure and away from home. They are the biggest front runners in the comp. 

As much as I hate Essendon it is better for us if they beat Port. Firstly because of their 3-0 start but also because a win today takes pressure off Essendon and as we play them in 2 weeks, that’s a good thing. 

Think bigger picture!

The word lazy is being used a lot, surprise surprise.

Remember the meltdowns on here when he kicked all those goals in a meaningless JLT game?

Good to see the mature recruits from Port making a big impact too. 

Is Boak playing?

Man I am so glad the mfc made the tough call and got rid of Watts. Lovely bloke, great skills but those lazy soft efforts just demoralise a team.

Port forum:

"Sorry but Watts is no good. There is a reason Melbs wanted him out. Adds nothing defensively and is about as strong as a wet piece of paper."

"Watts lazy."

"Wats scared."

Didn't take long.

    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

    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
