Although I hate Essendon its probably a better result if they win. Ideally Sydney will be out of contention by the time we play them.

Buddy is a strange bird. Rarely takes a one grab mark. It's like he wants to tap it forward in the marking contest to grab it second time

Ridiculous that wasn't a free to Hurley

Would have been ridiculous were the opponent not Buddy

And for the second time tonight Hurley looked as if he was about to burst into tears.

Can't ever like Essendon winning, but it suits me just fine if Sydney get the late-season stumbles.

We'll beat the Swans on our day, on pure merit whatever the circumstances, but for the comfort of it I'd like to have a couple of indicators in advance that we'll crush them completely and I wont have to stress too much.

Wasn’t that a slam tackle by Parish?   Ball free already, and victim’s head slammed into the turf. No comment on ABC radio. Anything said on TV?

All legal according to Ling. “ One motion BT, one motion”. 

They are everyone’s second team again.

Sling tackle by Parish not very Christian- like.

Not Christian like, but will Christian like?   My get he will like especially if Bummers win.

So you can bang an opponents head into the ground if it is in one action?

With Sydney's downturn in form, this draw is opening up for us slightly. Win tomorrow and we're still in it up to our necks.

That was a Luke Tapscott special from Haywood on the boundary line. A kick like that out on the full ended Tapscott's career.

Tapscott was a poor footballer - way too top heavy

Sydney getting peeled apart by ordinary sides 2 weeks in a row

They're a massive risk of falling out of the 8

I'd be shocked if we don't smash them based on how they're playing. Just gotta take care of Adelaide first.

Essendon's 3 so-called big name recruits have shows a bit this year. Stringer, Saad and D Smith.

Port Adelaide's scattergun recruits have done little this year. Watts, Rockcliff, Thomas, Trenners and Dom Barry.

    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
