Am I mistaken or is this year's game like AFLX?

 

Really fallen a long way the EJ game. A few years back I used to think it was great fun but I feel like year on year is been getting progressively worse. It needed a revamp....  But somehow I feel changing it to AFLX isn't going to help.

I believe it's being played at AAMI Park so the field will most likely be rectangular.

as i feared.

it used to be great because it was treated semi-seriously. now it's all a joke, scripted for the sake of it. and they've ruined it.

This is not doing a lot for me I am afraid. All happening in slow motion. Amazing what age does to former athletes! 

 

Where are all the ‘legends’?

Even... really good players???

 

 


I know I have the choice to ‘not’ watch it but fair dinkum my ‘taste’ for entertainment and the of the AFL’s are faarrkking poles apart. 

Haven’t seen it for a few years. Just switched it on before 3qtr time.  Where is there crowd? And why are they playing like geriatrics, they can barely move.  Looks like a few old guys having a kick to kick with no enthusiasm, then look at the score, wtf!! 

 

Worse than AFLX and that’s saying something. 

Watched for 30 secs...game gone from a farce to a joke. Sad

Yes I watched it for 10 minutes.  Sad to see legends deteriorate with age.  It should be players who retired in the last 5 years.  Jakovich could hardly move or bend.  He was a champion for the Eagles but needed a walking frame last night.  

Hey I fell asleep after half time does anyone know where I can find a replay of last nights game? Apparently it was a nail bitter finish!

Went to rubbish as soon as they started letting C & D grade "celebrities and comedians" have a run around.

 


That really was a shocker: how so many go to seed, (Bob Murphy excepted).

I understand the late E.J. Whitten has made an appearance at AFL House threatening to haunt Gillon McLachlan for ever unless he promises never to put it on again!

 

I would much rather watch paint dry than subject myself to that farce ever again. The only thing missing was a masked man coming onto the field with a steel chair.

And the Ch 7 commentators fawning over the whole show. I know it is for a noble cause , but..............

If it's going to be rigged anyway they need to go fully in this direction and turn it into a 100% sports entertainment spectacle.

  • POSTGAME: Sydney

    The Demons controlled the contest from the outset, though inaccurate kicking kept the Swans in the game until half time. But after the break, Melbourne put on the jets and blew Sydney away and the demolition job was complete.

  • CASEY: Northern Bullants

    The Casey Demons travelled to a windy Cramer Street, Preston yesterday and blew the Northern Bullants off the ground for three quarters before shutting up shop in the final term, coasting to a much-needed 71-point victory after leading by almost 15 goals at one stage. It was a pleasing performance that revived the Demons’ prospects for the 2025 season but, at the same time, very little can be taken from the game because of the weak opposition. These days, the Bullants are little more than road kill. The once proud club, situated behind the Preston Market in a now culturally diverse area, is currently facing significant financial and on-field challenges, having failed to secure a win to date in 2025.

  • GAMEDAY: Sydney

    It’s Game Day, and the Demons have a golden opportunity to build on last week’s stirring win by toppling Sydney at the MCG. A victory today would keep them firmly in the hunt for a finals spot and help them stay in touch with the pack chasing a place in the Top 8. Can the Dees make it two in a row and bring down the Swans?

  • NON-MFC: Round 11

    Round 11, the second week of The Sir Doug Nicholls Round, kicks off on Thursday night with the Cats hosting the Bulldogs at Kardinia Park. Geelong will be looking to to continue their decade long dominance over the Bulldogs, while the Dogs aim to take another big scalp as they surge up the ladder. On Friday night it's he Dreamtime at the 'G clash between Essendon and Richmond. The Bombers will want to avoid another embarrassing performance against a lowly side whilst the Tigers will be keen to avenge a disappointing loss to the Kangaroos. Saturday footy kicks off as the Blues face the Giants in a pivotal clash for both clubs. Carlton need to turn around their up and down season while GWS will be eager to bounce back and reassert themselves as a September threat. At twilight sees the Hawks taking on the Lions at the G. Hawthorn need to cement themselves in the Top 4 but they’ll need to be at their best to challenge a Brisbane side eager to respond after last week’s crushing loss to the Dees on their home turf. The first of the Saturday night double headers opens with North Melbourne up against the high-flying Magpies. The Roos will need a near-perfect performance to trouble a Collingwood side sitting atop the ladder.
