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

That’s what happened last season after we won 4 in a row. That kind of intense pressure seems alien to the way we play.

    What is it with the umpires.

    They've been instructed to just ball the ball up now and not take time telling players they're moving out backwards (has anyone ever seen an ump throw the ball up or bounce it and run forward).

    ...yet, they are law unto themselves and despite instructions still seem to what to tell players they're moving out the back.

    This type of thing has been going on for years now with any rule interpretation. They enforce it one week and by week 3 it's back where it was in the first place.

    No wonder the game is going backwards...

    The different interpretations from different umpires as well. Umpire 14 has paid incorrect disposal more than the other 3 umpires combined tonight.

    Bloody hell the umpires love Frankenstein

    Last three minutes of third Q

    - the first a dive that would make the Tiger “world best ever defender” Prancer look an honest man, followed by another real softie 

    Did you not see the stories last week about him being paid the most free kicks against in the entire league?

    Classic even ups...

    I struggle to get into viewing any game played at the SCG, the ground is just too small. 

    especially when so much of the camera work is close-up

    I see the Blues are saving themselves for the Pies next week.

    Carlton are more pathetic than I imagined. It brings back the memories of the dark days under Neeld.

    Wow. I wish these Bastards were this bad in the 70’s and 80’s

    Enjoying Carlton going goalless for the first half against a team that’s younger and less experienced.

    Wow I actually gave Carlton a chance today, but this is just horrible. There could be a mass walk out at half time. This was a team that beat essenscum who have beaten teams like geelong and gws at there home ground. 

    Well the loser out of the suns and saints could escape scrutiny because I think next week the focus will be on Carlton.

    • PREGAME: Sydney

      Just a game and percentage outside the Top 8, the Demons return to Melbourne to face the Sydney Swans at the MCG, with a golden opportunity to build on the momentum from toppling the reigning premiers on their own turf. Who comes in, and who makes way?

      The Demons pulled off an absolute miracle at the Gabba coming from 24 points down in the 2nd Quarter to overrun the reigning premiers the Brisbane Lions winning by 11 points and keeping their season well and truly alive.

    • GAMEDAY: Brisbane

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons are back on the road with a massive challenge ahead — facing the reigning premiers, the Brisbane Lions, at their Gabba fortress. The Lions are licking their wounds after a shock draw in Tasmania last week, while Melbourne’s season hangs in the balance. Can the Dees defy the odds and pull off a miracle to keep their razor thin finals hopes alive?

      The Sir Doug Nicholls Round kicks off in Darwin with a Top 4 clash between the Suns and the Hawks. On Friday night the Swans will be seeking to rebound from a challenging start to the season, while the Blues have the Top 8 in their sights after their sluggish start. Saturdays matches kick off with a blockbuster between the Collingwood and Kuwarna with the Magpies looking to maintain their strong form and the Crows aiming to make a statement on the road. The Power face a difficult task to revive their season against a resilient Cats side looking to make amends for their narrow loss last week. The Giants aim to reinforce their top-eight status, while the Dockers will be looking to break the travel hoodoo. The sole Saturday game is a critical matchup for both teams, as the Bulldogs strive to cemet their spot in the top six and the Bombers desperately want break into the 8. Sundays start with a bottom 3 clash between the Tigers and Kangaroos with both teams wanting to avoid the being in wooden spoon contention. The Round concludes with the Eagles still searching for their first win of the season, while the Saints look to keep their finals hopes alive with a crucial away victory. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?
