Agreed. An all round crap season thus far.

My friends and I who all barrack for different teams have a footy chat group going. It’s been going for a good 4 years now. And gees everyone is disappointed in this season so far, even those who support teams that are doing relatively well. It’s like tumbleweeds in the chat and tumbleweeds on game day. Total snooze fest. 

yeah, a facebook group i am part of has been saying the same - there's richmond at one end, carlton and brisbane at the other, and then a whole lot of ordinary in between

    It may have something to do with the current trend in footy.  In previous years teams implemented a flood, then a cluster, then a press, then a stoppage based gameplan.  The last two years have seen the Bulldogs and Tigers win premierships on the back of frantic pressure and frenetic ball movement.  Teams are trying to either imitate or implement this ideology.  With this leap in pressure, the skills have gone to hell.

    Envy is of course a deadly sin but you just have to chuckle at the luck of Richmond..

    Record members and revenue and this week they hit Collingwood on an absolute upbeat crowd wise. They are expecting 80k plus.

    Good luck to em but hell it would be nice if it were us. :)

    Well, Richmond have beaten us, Brisbane, Carlton and Hawks. All previous season finals no shows. They may be premiers and top of the ladder but a big call saying they are significanty better than their closest rivals. Last season the Bulldogs were in a similar position and 4/1 after five rounds, still re-living their premiership glory and receiving copious platitudes. Richmond are hot ATM but things can change quickly.

    At docklands... crowd better than I expected. Maybe 17k.

    Hard to work out if either team is any good but port seems to be a notch above North.

    Every time brown goes near the ball the crowd scream for a free kick.

    Jack W not starring so far. Had a relatively easy set shot in the first quarter and missed.

    Gray (46) can certainly play. 3 goals so far

    Cats V Geelong turning into a ripper game. 10 mins to go and Sydney are back in front after trailing by about 5 goals.

    Boy... this is a cold stadium when the roof is shut and the crowd is low.

    Port well on top. North just too sloppy.

    On a more general note this game style is no fun to watch as a neutral. Very few good plays. It's just about who Bullock's better.

    Game style does nothing for a player like Watts.

    You look at Sydney's leadership and then ours and that's why we are where we are. Struggling.

    Did you check out their coaching staff as well?

    Wow what a great win by the swans with no Buddy or Hannebery. That would make the cats fans down there a tad angry. You would think on your home ground and  with those 2 out you would win. Especially with a 24 point 3/4 time lead. 

    as for Nth well how do you come out and play last week and thrash the hawks but can't back it up against Port. Back to reality Nth. 

    Port where was this effort a few weeks ago when you played the scum?

    Both Scott brothers have not had a good day today.

    Impressive coaching staff, but we have assembled a reasonable team too. I'm more concerned by the on field, than the off field. We simply have no leadership on the field. 

    I'll be interested to see how we go with Tom McDonald in the side.

    You can't complain about the north spirit.

    8 goals down but 3 quick ones to the kangas

    They kicked  a few goals when the game was well and truly over.

    Not sure that qualifies as spirit DJ, they were flogged.

    It was intended as a subtle reminder/comparison of a team that did the opposite two weeks in a  row. :)

    slightly off topic but Melbourne Victory had the semi final sewn up...2-1... and Sydney scored a goal with 15 seconds to go.

    Now off to extra time for 30 minutes

    • PREVIEW: Collingwood

      Way back in March we contemplated the possibility of a Demon resurgence after Simon Goodwin’s summer of love. Many issues at the club had seemingly been addressed, key players were returning from injury and a brand new day was about to dawn. We imagined the coach pulling a rabbit out of a hat. The team would roar up the charts, push aside every opponent and make its way to a Grand Final ending in ultimate triumph with Goody and Max holding the premiership cup aloft under a shower of red and blue ticker tape.

    • AFLW REPORT: Western Bulldogs

      We’re back! That was fun. The Mighty Dees’ Season 10 campaign is off toa flying start with a commanding 48-point winover the Western Bulldogs, retaining the Hampson-Hardeman Cup in style. After a hard-fought first half in slippery conditions, the Dees came out in the second half and showcased their trademark superior class, piling on four goals in the third termand never looked back.

    • REPORT: Hawthorn

      The final score in Saturday's game against Hawthorn was almost identical to that from their last contest three months ago. Melbourne suffered comprehensive defeats in both games, but the similarities ended there.When they met in Round 9, the Demons were resurgent, seeking to redeem themselves after a lacklustre start to the season. They approached the game with vigour and dynamism, and were highly competitive for the first three quarters, during which they were at least on par with the Hawks. In the final term, they lapsed into error and were ultimately overrun, but the final result did not accurately reflect their effort and commitment throughout the match.

    • CASEY: Box Hill

      The Casey Demons ended the regular season on a positive note and gained substantial momentum leading into the finals when they knocked the Box Hill Hawks off the top of the VFL ladder in their final round clash at Casey Fields. More importantly, they moved out of a wild card position in the finals race and secured a week's rest as they leapfrogged up the ladder into fifth place with their decisive 23-point victory over the team that had been the dominant force in the competition for most of the season.

      The final game of the 2025 Season is finally upon us and the Demons may have an opportunity to spoil the Magpies Top 4 aspirations when they face them on Friday Night. Who comes in and who goes out?
