    Bombers looked poor. Cats not much better. 

    Hightlight of the match was a kid doing some commentary for a few minutes. Nailed it

    Can't take any notice of pre season games. Druggies will finish higher than the cats at the end of the year.

    Geelong are almost certain to play finals, but it's false hope in my view.  They have a serious home ground advantage, especially against to poorer interstate teams, so they chalk up around 7 wins just from that.  They will then have away games against some of those poorer sides, so they are almost good for that 12 win season that generally sees you sneak in to 8th.

    As soon as they are playing on big grounds against better opposition, especially in September, they are useless.

    I'd prefer them not to make it at all, rather than be embarrassed in the first final.

    Maybe they are deliberately trying to Fly under the bridge, Pre season matches, to catch by surprise.   I expect them to push up the ladder in 2019. IF they have they're heads down and rsses up.

    Adelaide look ok.  Top 4 quality with easy draw.  Only real weakness is the ruck.

    Jacobs is ok...

    I think their 2 big forwards are front runners & their defence could be suspect against good opposition talls.

    Also need to keep their small/medium defenders honest, that's where they launch from.

    Hoping we can sneak into the 8 with a hard fought win this arvo...

    According to my calculations we're still a massive chance for Jalapeno top-four - and even a sneaky shot at runners up behind Carton (hehe) or, as official moral pre-season premiers, Collingwood. Go Dees!

    (Damn - forgot about Radelaide)

    Will be hoping and praying that Richmond, GC and Carlton get done this weekend to sneak into the top 6.

    Sadly I think top 4 is out of the question as  Collingwood and Carlton play each other, while WC and Brisbane’s percentage may be too hard to overtake.

    Hats off to the Crows for a fantastic Jalepano series.

    At the risk of unsettling the MFCSS-superstitious masses prior to the season proper, my predicted 80-point win over a travelling BrisVegas outfit should see to that percentage deficit quick-smart.

    One of Port or Norf in their game should change jumpers at half time. Ridiculous choice of strips in my eyes.

    AFL will be happy with Port v Norf scoring fest.  At one stage North kicked 5 goals in 5 minutes from 5 consecutive centre clearances.

    dominant ruckmen feeding big bodied mids who can kick it to leading forwards will be worth their weight in gold in 2019

    Big game for us today in the context of the Jalapeño Lettuce & Tomato season.

    Brisbane sitting pretty in second spot and will be keen to post another win to lock in a top four finish and due to our reasonable percentage, a win for us should see us slot into the top 8.

     

     

    ...hmmm, I should have read the rest of the thread better before duplicatING a fairly obvious point.  Ar well, I guess it is just a preseason post, doesn't count for as much as posts in a few weeks time against Port.

    • The Clayton Oliver Thread

      Melbourne have held talks with Clayton Oliver and they’ve laid out where he fits in under Steve King’s vision and been frank about expectations. Oliver is still under contract for five years, but the door is open if he wants to explore his options elsewhere.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Essendon

      It’s Pink Lady night at Princes Park — a vibey Friday evening setting for a high-stakes clash between second-placed Melbourne and eleventh-placed Essendon. The wind-sheltered IKON Park, a favourite ground of the Demon players, promises flair, fire and a touch of pink. Melbourne has never lost a home-and-away game here, though the ghosts of two straight-sets finals exits in 2023 still linger.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 1 Steven May 

      The premiership defender has shown signs of wear and tear due to age, and his 2025 season was inconsistent, ending poorly with a suspension and a noticeable decline in performance. The Demons are eager to integrate younger players onto their list and have indicated that they may not be able to guarantee him senior games next season, in what would be the final year of his contract.

    • 2025 Player Reviews: # 2 Jacob van Rooyen

      The young key tall failed to make progress during the season, with a decline in his goal kicking output. His secondary role as a backup ruckman, which may have hindered his ability to further develop his game, and he was also impacted by the team's poor forward connection. It will be interesting to observe his performance under a new coaching regime.
