    Be careful with this analysis. MCG is home ground for many teams and so we do not have the same potential advantage as teams who do not share. Look at filth's %. Top four teams have been the standout teams since 2015.

    Who would have thought that two guys and a dog would have made such a difference at Giants Stadium?

    It should be really interesting to see what happens to West Coast and their magical free kick differential over in Perth.  Maybe without the feral crowd the umpires will be willing to call  a fair game.

    • REPORT: Fremantle

      Melbourne’s early surge of optimism came crashing back to reality in its clash with Fremantle at Optus Stadium on Saturday night. Just six days after unveiling its fun-filled, attack-minded style against the Saints, the Demons were met by a Dockers outfit determined to shut it down with a blend of speed, pressure, and physicality.

    • CASEY: Footscray

      The Casey Demons faced a tough first up task taking on reigning VFL premiers Footscray at Mission Whitten Oval. The Bulldogs, who unfurled their premiership flag pre-game, had 15 AFL-listed players and their top VFL talent available, setting them up for their 15th consecutive win.

    • POSTGAME: Fremantle

      The Demons were fumbly, inefficient, outrun and outgunned all over the field as they went down to the Dockers by 48 points at Optus Stadium in Perth.
