    Interesting that Hawthorn have also played St Kilda and Essendon the last 2 weeks, and we’ve actually won both games by more than Hawthorn.

    And yet the media were raving about both of the Hawks wins, particularly the St KIlda win.

    Anyone bother listening to FM? Almost every station has moronic comedians every morning laughing at their own jokes and frankly make up childish non funny stuff.  I guess many have a short attention span. If you want decent radio with trained broadcasters, tune into UK radio.

    I tune into JJJ

    Whateley doesn't come across as a cocaine snorting alcoholic hedonist like others in the football media so I will give him the benefit of the doubt.

    I havent read the whole thread so apologies if Im re stating things here. Gerard was very pro us in the tanking saga I thought ( one of the very few) so he gets a big,  long lasting tick from me. He was also one of the few who was trying to call the drug saga for what it was. Im a fan...I dont care what he or anyone  thinks of us this season. I just want to be playing finals ...the rest will take care of itself!

    Whateley had an opinion, then changes it as the results come though, what’s the issue with that?  We’d have a much better country if our politicians were able to adapt to changes rather then stubbornly holding to their outdated views.

    Demonland is a large island in Eric Rücker Eddison's fantasy world, described in The Worm Ouroboros. The people who live in Demonland are referred to as demons, though they appear as humans with small horns adorned on their heads.Wikipedia

    Mods,

    Why is a plural for young Cats banned as a censored word when cant's is allowed

    What is it  that worries you what Whately says. He has his opinions that's fine. Lets change his opinion by us winning the games we should win like the one coming up. Gold Coast.

    Incorrect.  She was on 360 last night, and I'm sure she didn't say she barracked for Melbourne.  She listed 3 teams she barracked for, but none were Melbourne.

    Correct. She said Geelong for Gerard, North for his sister and Hawks for herself.

    Well, that’s probably down to opinion.

    The way I see it is that he confident, assured and articulate.  Some may see that as arrogance, and that’s fair enough.

    The egocentric commentators seek to sensationalise, exaggerate, crack in jokes, make up nicknames, laugh hysterically at their own jokes and treat the viewers/listeners like they’re fools.

    Basically Brian Taylor and all his ‘mates’.

    Taylor is the worst. Because of Ch7 doing the fixture he only has to know the names of Carlton,C;wood, Essendon,  RIchmond and he could get by. However he cannot even do that. Last night Ch 7 "Commentators" carried on their own ïn house discussion"and forgot to even call the footy. Turn the sound off and it was marvellous.

    The biggest problem with Footy currently is the wall to wall commentary/analysis with an entire cohort of people trying to get their minute of media time and fame. As a result the Sport itself (grass roots) gets no coverage because it is swamped by AFL

    Gerard is okay, i like BT and people are allowed to be down on us after the shocker against Hawks and the poor last qtr vs the Tigers. We've only beat 3 of whats probably going to be the bottom 6 sides in the comp. We ain't beating the best in the comp, so let's not get ahead of ourselves and start calling media people out for not kissing our toes.

     

    ALSO we did have the most to lose (= with Essendon) we are on the repair after two poor games and losing to gold coast would be a disaster when you consider our easy draw for the next month and the difficult draw that lays ahead.

    Really? I corrected a wrong post.

    And I will do it again with yours. No, I did not waste my time watching 360. I enjoy it. My decision, not yours.

    Out of curiosity, what are you watching in that time slot? As summer bay and Ramsay st have closed, I have no idea what you watch after that.

    most times oI'm on the internet chazz.

    When I stay in Melbourne, I stay at a friends place & he watches foxtel, so I have to see these programs. I am absolutely baffled that anyone watches Whately and Robinson yodel on.

    When he goes to bed I turn them off, and watch anything else, even CH-2 news.   Recordings of games, or motorsport. anything other than those two.

    Very disappointed with 'the couch', as well. wankfest.

    Not sure you could call him a moron. Save that for the likes of Tony Shaw, Robbo, BT, Derwayne, Bill Brownless, etc.

    What I've never liked about him is he calls football like a horse race. Also uses 'in terms of' in far too many sentences. That means you've mangled your sentence structure.

    • PREVIEW: Fremantle

      A month is a long time in AFL football. The proof of this is in the current state of the two teams contesting against each other early this Saturday afternoon at the MCG. It’s hard to fathom that when Melbourne and Fremantle kicked off the 2025 season, the former looked like being a major player in this year’s competition after it came close to beating one of the favourites in the GWS Giants while the latter was smashed by Geelong to the tune of 78 points and looked like rubbish. Fast forward to today and the Demons are low on confidence and appear panic stricken as their winless streak heads towards an even half dozen and pressure mounts on the coach and team leadership.  Meanwhile, the Dockers have recovered their composure and now sit in the top eight. They are definitely on the up and up and look most likely winners this weekend against a team which they have recently dominated and which struggles to find enough passages to the goals to trouble the scorers. And with that, Fremantle will head to the MCG, feeling very good about itself after demolishing Richmond in the Barossa Valley with Josh Treacy coming off a six goal haul and facing up to a Melbourne defence already without Jake Lever and a shaky Steven May needing to pass a fitness test just to make it onto the field of play.

    • 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.
