Paddy McCartin is a dead ringer for Robbie “Mad Dog” Muir

He was one scary bastard. Could play occasionally when his temper allowed it

Don't think "Paddy" has that Martial Art touch, his is more "potato" touch......

    This competition is all over the place.  Hard to get a bead on how things will pan out.  Makes the capitulation last week even more painful.

    Mainly low scoring due to shocking conversion rates today

    I think you’re being polite with the word shocking RGRS. 32 behinds under the roof?

    39.60 in the two games today in great conditions 

    Would be very interesting to see that broken down into set shots etc.

    With forward pressure I am not surprised by the seemingly low conversion rates.

    Mind you Greene and then Shield kicked two beautiful goals on the run from different pockets for GWS.

    On a more serious note the team that cracks the accuracy stakes will go far. How they do it who knows.

    Was just think how great it is that Port and the Crows moved to Adelaide Oval and ditched AAMI Park.

    AAMI was a graveyard for Melbourne, butt we have been fantastic at Adelaide Oval.

    I know it's Dangerfield so probably won't happen but he should get many, many weeks for dumping Westoff head first into the turf off the ball.

    That was a very dangerous action that could have had disastrous implications...

    This is the first time I've watched Jack Watts play for Port. He's been awful.

    From the Port forum

    "J Watts should be out there in a dress."

    Yes saw that but they will move on and concentrate on Lindsay Thomas. He will go down but I am not sure it was that bad. Need to see the replay a few times more.

    Thomas was very dirty.

    Commentators then quizzed each other on how much of a ‘good bloke’ he is off the field.

    See when he jogged in for a mark and the Geelong player just ran past him and took the ball.

    LOL you guys are obsessed. He's one of their highest disposal winners. Been involved in a lot of plays. Covered a lot of ground. Has quick hands and decision making. Been asked to swing across half back and the forward line. Laid some tackles. Landed a huge bump in a recent passage of play. But yeah because he's not Dangerfield he's a spud who should be in a dress.

    And we're still paying for him!

    Good thing we got rid of him so we can make way for hard nuts like..Bugg and...you know...all those other amazing half forward talls we have in our line up.

    Where are all the posters who were melting down when Watts kicked 6 in a JLT game?

    He is worse at Port than he was at Melbourne.  Terrible footballer.

    You must have been very impressed when he completely f****d up that goal opportunity in the 4th. How he made so many mistakes in one passage defies logic.

    He's been half paced all game.

    • PREGAME: Essendon

      Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

    • NON-MFC: Round 04

      Round 4 kicks off with a blockbuster on Thursday night as traditional rivals Collingwood and Carlton clash at the MCG, with the Magpies looking to assert themselves as early-season contenders and the Blues seeking their first win of the season. Saturday opens with Gold Coast hosting Adelaide, a key test for the Suns as they aim to back up their big win last week, while the Crows will be looking to keep their perfect record intact. Reigning wooden spooners Richmond have the daunting task of facing reigning premiers Brisbane at the ‘G and the Lions will be eager to reaffirm their premiership credentials after a patchy start. Saturday night sees North Melbourne take on Sydney at Marvel Stadium, with the Swans looking to build on their first win of the season last week against a rebuilding Roos outfit. Sunday’s action begins with GWS hosting West Coast at ENGIE Stadium, a game that could get ugly very early for the visitors. Port Adelaide vs St Kilda at Adelaide Oval looms as a interesting clash, with both clubs form being very hard to read. The round wraps up with Fremantle taking on the Western Bulldogs at Optus Stadium in what could be a fierce contest between two sides with top-eight ambitions. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

    • POSTGAME: Geelong

      The Demons have slumped to their worst start to a season since 2012, falling to 0–4 after a more spirited showing against the Cats at Kardinia Park. Despite the improved effort, they went down by 39 points, and the road ahead is looking increasingly grim.

    • GAMEDAY: Geelong

      It's Game Day, and reinforcements are finally arriving for the Demons—but will it be too little, too late? They're heading down the freeway to face a Cats side returning home to their fortress after two straight losses, desperate to reignite their own season. Can the Demons breathe new life into their campaign, or will it slip even further from their grasp?
