Corresponding to the actual scheduled matches. 

The matches to be aired are still to be determined.

Thursday, March 26 @7.25AEDT
Collingwood v Richmond

Friday, March 27 @7.50 AEDT
Sydnev v Essendon

Saturday, March 28 from 12pm AEDT
Melbourne v Greater Western Sydney
Carlton v Western Bulldogs
Brisbane Lions v North Melbourne
Port Adelaide v Adelaide 

Sunday, March 29 from 2pm AEDT
Geelong v Gold Coast
St Kilda v West Coast
Fremantle v Hawthorn

 

they should stream matches where both teams win, that way all supporters get to cheer on their winning team. Why would you watch a game where you already know you will lose?

Channel 7 are doing the same sorta thing, except it doesn’t look like the corresponding match. They are calling it’s The Vault. 

 

Hopefully our younger supporters can get a glimpse of the utter brilliance of Allen Jakovich, David Schwarz, Jeff Farmer, Garry Lyon and the bone breaking David Neitz at his best.

Bloody hell those blokes played some exciting football.

JUst viewed video of 1st semi-final 1994 Dees v Doggies... the great Jakovich out injured? but Captain Garry and team mates step up to the plate and performed magnificently. We were in the zone!  True, memory is less reliable as time passes. Prior to viewing would have sworn (erroneously), young Neita cleaned up Chris Grant,who appeared to be out for the count. But he returned to the ground after half time! Albeit a little 'groggy' and probably less able to perform. With concussion rules in place now would not happen. Only fly in the ointment?  Having to fly to Perth and play West Coast Beagles the following week. Sound familiar?  Dreams of ultimate success thwarted by earlier opportunities not taken at that moment in time. Other teams with less talent have won premierships, perhaps decided by the roll of the dice or the bounce of the Sherrin.

Was this on YouTube?

 

EDI: Nevermind, located. Can't wait to watch this again. Have not seen in years.  How's the shirtfront laid by Stinga at the opening bounce. What an axe and what a talent.

Yeah, physicality on the footy field at its best. Sadly 'legislated out' of the game today.

our best chance of wining a flag that year i reckon, Perth has been a stumbling block for us. Also Lyon and Ox not 100% didnt help either. But gee we were a nicely balanced team in 1994.

  • REPORT: Port Adelaide

    Of course, it’s not the backline, you might argue and you would probably be right. It’s the boot studder (do they still have them?), the midfield, the recruiting staff, the forward line, the kicking coach, the Board, the interchange bench, the supporters, the folk at Casey, the head coach and the club psychologist  It’s all of them and all of us for having expectations that were sufficiently high to have believed three weeks ago that a restoration of the Melbourne team to a position where we might still be in contention for a finals berth when the time for the midseason bye arrived. Now let’s look at what happened over the period of time since Melbourne overwhelmed the Sydney Swans at the MCG in late May when it kicked 8.2 to 5.3 in the final quarter (and that was after scoring 3.8 to two straight goals in the second term).

  • CASEY: Essendon

    Casey’s unbeaten run was extended for at least another fortnight after the Demons overran a persistent Essendon line up by 29 points at ETU Stadium in Port Melbourne last night. After conceding the first goal of the evening, Casey went on a scoring spree from about ten minutes in, with five unanswered majors with its fleet of midsized runners headed by the much improved Paddy Cross who kicked two in quick succession and livewire Ricky Mentha who also kicked an early goal. Leading the charge was recruit of the year, Riley Bonner while Bailey Laurie continued his impressive vein of form. With Tom Campbell missing from the lineup, Will Verrall stepped up to the plate demonstrating his improvement under the veteran ruckman’s tutelage. The Demons were looking comfortable for much of the second quarter and held a 25-point lead until the Bombers struck back with two goals in the shadows of half time. On the other side of the main break their revival continued with first three goals of the half. Harry Sharp, who had been quiet scrambled in the Demons’ first score of the third term to bring the margin back to a single point at the 17 minute mark and the game became an arm-wrestle for the remainder of the quarter and into the final moments of the last.

  • PREGAME: Gold Coast

    The Demons have the Bye next week but then are on the road once again when they come up against the Gold Coast Suns on the Gold Coast in what could be a last ditch effort to salvage their season. Who comes in and who comes out?

    The Demons simply did not take their opportunities when they presented themselves and ultimately when down by 25 points effectively ending their finals chances. Goal kicking practice during the Bye?
