Freo playing ok seeing as they basically gave up on this game at team selection.

Pies looking pretty good too.

Sets up a massive game next week.

Both teams in good form.

    Only 2 goals for Ben Brown.

    Hogan now just 4 goals off the Coleman lead.

    Would've preferred more breathing space between us and the Pies but not unhappy to see the lowly teams continue to lose. Helps to reduce the field of potential finalists. I'd say any team heading into their bye with 4-5 wins is basically out of finals contention, considering the logjam at 7-8 wins.

    At least, the Scum winning will ensure 85,000+ next week. Two teams flying.

    We should account for them easily, but how will we respond to Lever's injury? That's the big question.

    Watching Collingwood, it's likely watching 15 or so ANB's run around. They get a fair bit of it but turn it over under very little pressure. It'll be interesting to see how they go against our pressure if we bring it.

    With Nth possibly finishing as high as 6th after this round... how is it that ‘Melbourne hasn’t beaten anyone yet...’??

    You don't understand; North weren't good yet when we beat them. How could they have been? I mean, they lost to Melbourne!

     

    Everyone we have beaten are below us, and we have only lost once to teams above us. 

    It only seems like yesterday that every team was above us :unsure:

    Pies didn't play the game out at the end and the Dockers did a nice job of whittling back Pies %.

    GWS taking it right up to the Crows.  If GWS win they boot Crows out of the 8.  Even if GWS lose, a small loss helps our cause for finals.

     

    So, Huge, Huge game vs Pies next week.

    We win and we have 9 wins - 2 wins and good % ahead of next weeks 6th, 7th, 8th and looking good for top 4 (with a double chance and at least one Home final at the G).

    Lose and we will be in the pack of 4/5 teams on 8 wins.

    We owe the pies for rnd 23, 2017.  Lets hope that still burns deep in our team and they wreak their revenge.  Will be happy with any win!

    This cripple fight in Adelaide is not pleasing on the eyes. 

     

    But as I type, a sweet hit from 55.

    Geez, I hope GWS don't awaken

    I am with you. I am going for the crows in this one.

    We play them round 23. It would be great if they were out of finals contention and taking it easy with stars coming back.

    OMG the maggots are [censored] scared of letting GW$$ beating Adelaide in front of their crowd.

     

    At least it is a close game unlike the boring runaways this afternoon.

    GWS winning is not a great an outcome as some might think. Get Greene back into that team and they're dangerous.

    I am supporting them, today, in response to the Crows' supporters schadenfreude over OUR Jack Lever's injury!

    The Crows drop to 6-5 - forget top 4, they will now have to battle to make the 8.

    • REPORT: Geelong

      I was disappointed to hear Goody say at his post match presser after the team’s 39 point defeat against Geelong that "we're getting high quality entry, just poor execution" because Melbourne’s problems extend far beyond that after its 0 - 4 start to the 2025 football season. There are clearly problems with poor execution, some of which were evident well before the current season and were in play when the Demons met the Cats in early May last year and beat them in a near top-of-the-table clash that saw both sides sitting comfortably in the top four after round eight. Since that game, the Demons’ performances have been positively Third World with only five wins in 19 games with a no longer majestic midfield and a dysfunctional forward line that has become too easy for opposing coaches to counter. This is an area of their game that is currently being played out as if they were all completely panic-stricken.

    • 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.
