Not sure why they need 4 umpires. Wouldn't it be easier to have Razor stand in the centre square for all games, calling the game all over the park from there? Maybe even hook him up to a microphone to blare out over the ground with his smart-arse remarks.

Not sure which is worse, the Dogs or the Umpires.

Definitely the Dogs. The umpires are at least doing what they're told.

Just leave him in his car, park it on the interchange bench and go from there

Use the horn to signify a free kick and use the blinkers to show which side gets the kick

They looked good - who is going to stop Westhoff and Dixon? Westhoff is a beast. Mobile and strong and fast.

I didn't even notice Wines then saw he had 35.

On that basis, it will be tough against Port but boy we should fl0//g, and I mean fl0//g, the Bulldogs based on that game. They were hapless. The Mallanganee 4ths could have given them a shake

No mate, Mallanganee is up near Casino.

Let us not impugn the reputation of the mighty Saints.

So on the what is best for the MFC train I assume we are all hoping for a big win for the Eagles.

Good to see that there is finally a prime time TV game that is worth watching.

Getting warmer here in Kazan ... about 16 and looking forward to the match (Australia v France) tomorrow.

The stadium is almost brand new and very impressive. It has the largest LED screen in the world on its exterior.

Down at the fan fest site last night watching the opening match between Russia and Saudi Arabia. Russians were a subdued crowd but they enjoyed the big win.

A Sydney loss helps us... though I badly want the Eagles bubble to burst, I doubt they are missing the finals or even top 4 after a 10-1 start.

Tonite will be another tragic SCG congestation. Still think the weagles bubble will burst but when I don't know.

Sydney have done what we couldn’t last week.

relentless inside 50’s by WCE at one stage 15 straight and they just absorb and absorb.

thats where we need to get to.

What a terrible game.  I dont fear either of these teams.

The premiership race remains wide open.

Posted (edited)

Made a joke about this on reddit, but losing isn't that bad a thing for WCE, if they and Sydney keep a game and percentage clear of Richmond/others for the rest of the year (if Geelong win this round) then they're preventing a victorian team getting that home QF/prelim grand final path, multiplying the chances of an interstate GF. 2005/06 Deja Vu. They're [censored] otherwise. Even i'd fancy OUR chances against WCE at the G on the big stage ?

From what I’ve seen of the Dees this season we would fold under this pressure, and badly.

Bloody hell the umpires love Frankenstein

Last three minutes of third Q

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo. The play start time was brought forward from the initial 11am bounce, due to the high temperatures forecast.  The match sim will consist of four 25-minute qu
