Richmond

Bar horrible umpiring, I think Richmond v Brisbane and West Coast v Hawthorn will be crackers.

    I think the AFL has done a good job in giving Brisbane 2 matches this week considering their non-existent injury list.

    They have a 15 hour break between games and a short flight to the west. They better not whine.

    I think the top 4 will be interesting. I expect Brissy will get done by Richmond and West coast will beat Hawthorn. This is where % will play a part. between w/c and brissy. I hope Brissy get a home final but may have to play the eagles over there.

    This round is big in the South Australian context.

    Could see the demise of one if not two coaches.

    I reckon Hinkley has more to worry about. We’ll know by the end of Port’s game whether or not the players want him gone or not. 

    On another note, from a reliable source I was told that at the start of the season, the Fremantle players were all told not to expect to play finals this season. Odd.

    Filth v drug cheats. Not watching/listening, nor checking the scores.

    Who do I want to win? It would be like choosing between typhoid and cholera.

    Much as I hate to say it, Drugsters being screwed by maggots.  

    How was that a 50 to Moore when he actively tried not to take the returned ball?

    Clearly we need to either get bigger louder crowds, or buy an amplifier to shout “baaaallllllll” whenever we lay a tackle even if it is disposed.

    It's like neither team is trying to win this. Constant misses this quarter.

    Football sucks, I can’t believe both these teams are going to be playing finals. 

    If these sides are playing finals   well we don't need to improve that much.   Well I know we do need to improve but both these sides are terrible, just shows how lowly we played    Not looking forward to tmorra

    This side is in the top 4 right now. Putrid stuff. Is that the quality of the competition right now?

    That's a good question. 

    Two weeks ago a decimated Melbourne side played Collingwood at the same venue and lost by 17 points while, last night, an equally decimated Essendon lost by 11 points last night. 

    The Demons had 18 shots at goal to the Pies 20. Last night it was the Bombers 15 to 26 and yet they are in the finals, the Pies can still make top 4 and we're way out of it. The other teams have had their share of injuries of late but they haven't been blighted by them the way we have.

    In a way, it sums up the season for us.

    If only essenscum had lost last week or to nth or Sydney.  They would have missed finals probably.  Hopefully they go out week1. 

    Hopefully Richmond and west coast win and knock the pies out of the top 4

    Ryan and Rioli, both so exciting to watch, both electric and skilful. We don’t need one small crumbing forward, we need two.

    • PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      With both sides precariously positioned ahead of the run home to the finals, only one team involved in Sunday’s clash at the Adelaide Oval between the Power and the Demons will remain a contender when it’s over.  On current form, that one team has to be Melbourne which narrowly missed out on defeating the competition’s power house Collingwood on King's Birthday and also recently overpowered both 2024 Grand Finalists. Conversely, Port Adelaide snapped out of a four-game losing streak with a win against the Giants in Canberra. Although they will be rejuvenated following that victory, their performances during that run of losses were sub par and resulted in some embarrassing blow out defeats.

      Round 14 is upon us and there's plenty at stake across the rest of the competition. As Melbourne heads to Adelaide, it's time to turn our attention to the other matches of the Round. Which teams are you tipping this week? And which results would be most favourable for the Demons’ finals tilt?

    • REPORT: Collingwood

      The media focus on the fiery interaction between Max Gawn and Steven May at the end of the game was unfortunate because it took away the gloss from Melbourne’s performance in winning almost everywhere but on the scoreboard in its Kings Birthday clash with Collingwood at the MCG. It was a real battle reminiscent of the good old days when the rivalry between the two clubs was at its height and a fitting contest to celebrate the 2025 Australian of the Year, Neale Daniher and his superb work to bring the campaign to raise funds for motor neurone disease awareness to the forefront. Notwithstanding the fact that the Magpies snatched a one point victory from his old club, Daniher would be proud of the fact that his Demons fought tooth and nail to win the keenly contested game in front of 77,761 fans.

    • PREGAME: Port Adelaide

      The Demons are set to embark on a four-week road trip that takes them across the country, with two games in Adelaide and a clash on the Gold Coast, broken up by a mid-season bye. Next up is a meeting with the inconsistent Port Adelaide at Adelaide Oval. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: Collingwood

      Despite effectively playing against four extra opponents, the Dees controlled much of the match. However, their inaccuracy in front of goal and inability to convert dominance in clearances and inside 50s ultimately cost them dearly, falling to a heartbreaking one-point loss on King’s Birthday.
