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!

    In a pressure cooker Watts lazy effort stands out. 

    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.

    "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.

    • NON-MFC: Round 06

      The Easter Round kicks off in style with a Thursday night showdown between Brisbane and Collingwood, as both sides look to solidify their spots inside the Top 4 early in the season. Good Friday brings a double-header, with Carlton out to claim consecutive wins when they face the struggling Kangaroos, while later that night the Eagles host the Bombers in Perth, still chasing their first victory of the year. Saturday features another marquee clash as the resurgent Crows look to rebound from back-to-back losses against a formidable GWS outfit. That evening, all eyes will be on Marvel Stadium where Damien Hardwick returns to face his old side—the Tigers—coaching the Suns at a ground he's never hidden his disdain for. Sunday offers two crucial contests where the prize is keeping touch with the Top 8. First, Sydney and Port Adelaide go head-to-head, followed by a fierce battle between the Bulldogs and the Saints. Then, Easter Monday delivers the traditional clash between two bitter rivals, both desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top end of the ladder. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • REPORT: Essendon

      What were they thinking? I mean by “they” the coaching panel and team selectors who chose the team to play against an opponent who, like Melbourne, had made a poor start to the season and who they appeared perfectly capable of beating in what was possibly the last chance to turn the season around.It’s no secret that the Demons’ forward line is totally dysfunctional, having opened the season barely able to average sixty points per game which means there has been no semblance of any system from the team going forward into attack. Nevertheless, on Saturday night at the Adelaide Oval in one of the Gather Round showcase games, Melbourne, with Max Gawn dominating the hit outs against a depleted Essendon ruck resulting from Nick Bryan’s early exit, finished just ahead in clearances won and found itself inside the 50 metre arc 51 times to 43. The end result was a final score that had the Bombers winning 15.6 (96) to 8.9 (57). On balance, one could expect this to result in a two or three goal win, but in this case, it translated into a six and a half goal defeat because they only managed to convert eight times or 11.68% of their entries. The Bombers more than doubled that. On Thursday night at the same ground, the losing team Adelaide managed to score 100 points from almost the same number of times inside 50.

    • POSTGAME: Essendon

      Despite a spirited third quarter surge, the Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, remaining winless and second last on the ladder after a 39-point defeat to Essendon at Adelaide Oval in Gather Round.
