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.

And now they're trying to get west coke back into it.

Geez, Swans kept goalless in two quarters and still walk away with the points.

Oh no, that never happens apparently!

Aliir Aliir looked good for his first game back in a while

Massive pressure by both teams

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...

Pretty sure Hocking's super committee are looking seriously into it 'daisy'.

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

enjoy it you thieving Scum...


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.

  • 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.

  • GAMEDAY: Geelong

    It's Game Day, and reinforcements are finally arriving for the Demons—but will it be too little, too late? They're heading down the freeway to face a Cats side returning home to their fortress after two straight losses, desperate to reignite their own season. Can the Demons breathe new life into their campaign, or will it slip even further from their grasp?
