Zac Williams has done a hammy for GWS.

And Mummy could be suspended for a hit on Murphy. Even if it's judged as accidental Murphy has gone to hospital so you think Mummy's in strife.

In an incident that is likely to draw the attention of Match Review Officer Michael Christian, the right knee of the Giants' ruckman made forceful contact with Murphy's rib region.

This belting actually helps us. Giants have had a training run and will be in for a big shock against a good contested side.

Hope so. I was thinking the same thing

Anyone understand why Carlton would have to wear white against GWS?  How on earth would Navy Blue (with white shorts) clash with the GWS colours?  Defies logic.  Yeah.  I know.  It's the AFL.  Nuff said...!

FC even in the black and white TV era one could tell the difference between North Melbourne and Colonwood on a wet muddy day!

This clash jumper stuff is all about AFL marketing (as is just about everything else AFL).

Mumford very crass late takle (/knee/swinging arm) has ended Murphy's day (suspect broken ribs or something)

He should get 1 week if not 2

Christian:  "Mmmmm.  Mumford.  Looked bad, but who are GW$$$ playing next week?"

Marketing team: "Melbourne"

Christian: "Mmmm.  He does have a record, doesn't he, so we will have to appear to do something.  Mmmm.  I know, a suspended sentence.  Haven't tried that lurk for a while"

Mumford should be retired, suspended or both permanently before he kills someone.

Shane Mumford's answer to a question about his big hit on Cats midfielder Mitch Duncan in 2016 after he retired from the Swans.

"I got Kieren Jack with a ripper years ago when I was playing with Geelong, back in the days when you could run through people and not worry about getting suspended. He didn't see me coming and I left him on the ground coughing and wheezing, and that was probably a better one."

This is his thought process and I don't think he has changed at all. He should have stayed retired. He is a blight on the game.

If Mumford plays then we play Preuss and let them go toe to toe...

My money would be on Preuss.

Same as asking why we wore our red-backed jumper on Friday night. We played West Coast in Perth twice last year and wore our normal jumper with white shorts both times. There's no clash at all between their royal blue/yellow and our navy blue.

Absolutely!  But that was a couple of nights ago, and I've slept since then!  LOL

    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

    PODCAST: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    Join us LIVE on Monday night at 8:30pm—note that this special time is just for this week due to prior commitments.

    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
