Wiseblood involved in everything here!

I'm currently keeping one eye on a three month old in a bouncer, one eye on the game and one eye on here.  I've got three eyes somehow.

    Psychic line. Some days are tricky. Some days are great. So what kind of day is today going to be? It falls into a completely different  category. It holds the potential to be a day that you won't forget. Take advantage of the cosmic potential for transformation

    In the MCC tonight and still manage to have a row of Richmond nuffies behind me..

    We should take over the AFL enclosure on the Southern Stand,  when redeveloped. Own that area...  and start to takeover the Ponsford, as well.

    Hahah nice! Wife’s out, just got my 7month old to bed before the game, 3yo into bed after our second goal and 5yo currently wriggling like a worm with tiredness and watching the game with me.

    How good was that?  Took the right options, worked hard to get forward and lowered our eyes.  Great work.

    Great lead by Nibbler to get Melk to kick there.

    The uncontested turnovers are absolute killers.  We must have had a handful already.  Just bombing it from defence and it just comes straight back in.

    Loved that first term.  More pressure, better use going forward and I feel like we tightened up defensively.  The test will be to keep it up for three more quarters, but the early signs are good.

    One thing we need to fix is the bomb out of defence.  You can't always be precise, but we can't allow them uncontested marks with repeat entries.  They'll score from them eventually.

    Can't complain, they're having a dip. A lot more running back to help out as well.

    That fake handpass by Melksham before kicking to Hunt is what I want to see more of.

    It was only slight but it opened up the ground in front of him.

    Smart.

    Their inside 50 pressure is unreal. Means they have time to setup behind the ball and cut us off. When we get time, and use it well, we are picking through them.

    Not sure we can keep it up, but doing ok

    At least we've shown we CAN play, even if it's only for a quarter. Something there to build on going forward.

    Under a lot of pressure.

    The intent is there. Right now I’ll take that.

    Tom Mac showing us why he's so much more effective up forward where, with the sticks in front of him, he doesn't have to worry about his disposal.

    Credit to Goodwin for trying some kooky [censored] [censored]. I am here for it! 

    Would love anyone in this team to hit a target this year.

    • NON-MFC: Round 07

      Round 7 gets underway in iconic fashion with the traditional ANZAC Day blockbuster. The high-flying Magpies will be looking to solidify their spot atop the ladder, while the Bombers are desperate for a win to stay in touch with the top eight. Later that evening, Fremantle will be out to redeem themselves after a disappointing loss to the Demons, facing a hungry Adelaide side with eyes firmly set on breaking into the top four. Saturday serves up a triple-header of footy action. The Lions will be looking to consolidate their Top 2 spot as they head to Marvel Stadium to clash with the Saints. Over in Adelaide, Port Adelaide will be strong favourites at home against a struggling North Melbourne. The day wraps up with a fiery encounter in Canberra, where the Giants and Bulldogs renew their bitter rivalry. Sunday’s schedule kicks off with the Suns aiming to bounce back from their shock defeat to Richmond, taking on the out of form Swans.Then the Blues will be out to claim a major scalp when they battle the Cats at the MCG. The round finishes with a less-than-thrilling affair between Hawthorn and West Coast at Marvel. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • REPORT: Fremantle

      For this year’s Easter Saturday game at the MCG, Simon Goodwin and his Demons wound the clock back a few years to wipe out the horrible memories of last season’s twin thrashings at the hands of the Dockers. And it was about time! Melbourne’s indomitable skipper Max Gawn put in a mammoth performance in shutting out his immediate opponent Sean Darcy in the ruck and around the ground and was a colossus at the end when the game was there to be won or lost. It was won by 16.11.107 to 14.13.97. There was the battery-charged Easter Bunny in Kysaiah Pickett running anyone wearing purple ragged, whether at midfield stoppages or around the big sticks. He finish with a five goal haul.

    • CASEY: UWS Giants

      The Casey Demons took on an undefeated UWS Giants outfit at their own home ground on a beautiful autumn day but found themselves completely out of their depth going down by 53 points against a well-drilled and fair superior combination. Despite having 15 AFL listed players at their disposal - far more than in their earlier matches this season - the Demons were never really in the game and suffered their second defeat in a row after their bright start to the season when they drew with the Kangaroos, beat the Suns and matched the Cats for most of the day on their own dung heap at Corio Bay. The Giants were a different proposition altogether. They had a very slight wind advantage in the opening quarter but were too quick off the mark for the Demons, tearing the game apart by the half way mark of the term when they kicked the first five goals with clean and direct football.

    • PREGAME: Richmond

      The Dees are back at the MCG on Thursday for the annual blockbuster ANZAC Eve game against the Tigers. Can the Demons win back to back games for the first time since Rounds 17 & 18 last season? Who comes in and who goes out?

      A undermanned Dees showed some heart and desperation to put the Fremantle Dockers to the sword as they claimed their first victory for the season winning by 10 points at the MCG.
