My team Brisbane is up near the top. 

Yes they look like big improvers

some good needs based recruiting seemingly paying off handsomely at this point in Neale and Cameron 

brings a tear to my eye when I consider the meagre returns from our recent recruiting and also whether it has been really addressing our key needs

    That Don Tyson bloke from Norf would be very handy depth at the moment. 

    That Martin fellow would make an ideal back up for Gawn.

    The AFL are real happy because we play sides that are above us each week. ( Just like they did not tell us that it was not a 4 game JLT season)

    So I suppose next week will be match of the year.

    I know the club has turned me into a total pessimist but it already has a Carlton feel about it. Had a good year, thought they were good things and recruited for a flag and then had to rebuild.

    50% lol 

    Yep that’s not easy to fix - of course it’s all academic unless we start winning games consistently 

    I remember 2017 well % at the pointy end of the season can equate to one win - 80 point losses are almost equivalent to two losses

    • POSTGAME: North Melbourne

      The Demons are finally back at the MCG and finally back on the winners list as they continually chipped away at a spirited Kangaroos side eventually breaking their backs and opening the floodgates to run out winners by 6 goals.

    • PREVIEW: North Melbourne

      Can you believe it? After a long period of years over which Melbourne has dominated in matches against North Melbourne, the Demons are looking down the barrel at two defeats at the hands of the Kangaroos in the same season. And if that eventuates, it will come hot on the heels of an identical result against the Gold Coast Suns. How have the might fallen? There is a slight difference in that North Melbourne are not yet in the same place as Gold Coast. Like Melbourne, they are currently situated in the lower half of the ladder and though they did achieve a significant upset when the teams met earlier in the season, their subsequent form has been equally unimpressive and inconsistent.

    • REPORT: Adelaide

      The atmosphere at the Melbourne Football Club at the beginning of the season was aspirational following an injury-plagued year in 2024. Coach Simon Goodwin had lofty expectations with the return of key players, the anticipated improvement from a maturing group with a few years of experience under their belts, and some exceptional young talent also joining the ranks. All of that went by the wayside as the team failed to click into action early on. It rallied briefly with a new strategy but has fallen again with five more  consecutive defeats.
