Toss in the winning tattslotto numbers too!

 

Metricon with four games over the weekend.

Will be interesting to see how the surface holds up.

15mm predicted for Sunday and 45-60mm for Monday...lucky that wasn't Saturday and Sunday !

Cats and Pies for the first two matches


Say whatever you want about our man Dan but he’s not only leading the tipsters, he also picked 11 winners last week from just 9 games.05C3EF0D-E273-4CDD-8E75-46F2C36F7E79.thumb.jpeg.dc9e108626e2755eebcb29a04116cf02.jpeg

 

Never seen a team whinge more to the umpire and beg for frees than the Cats. Actually sickening.


Cats showing that kicking skills reign supreme. They barely handball, always looking for short kick options.

Interestingly 4 of the top 5 teams have the lowest play on percentage. They mark, stop and create uncontested marking chains with short kicks.
Conversely we have the highest play on percentage in the league and are the worst team in the league over the last 18 months. Basically proof our gameplan is completely wrong and we need to slow down and hit a [censored] target.

don't watch the hawks much?

This mob mentor them. I think they asked for a free at halftime.

Sadly that was a very good quarter of footy from Geelong, there leaders all standing up. 


9 goals in a row and they were playing ring a ring a rosie against us. They are making the Lions look like pretenders.

It sound like I've been on the whaky tabaki but if we make the necessary adjustments and clean our foot skills up we arent that far off.

Remember seeing a stat here last week. The team sitting second on the ladder has not won a game in 2020. The curse continues.

May be we weren't bad, just Geelong are very good.(i just threw up in my mouth).

Lions would be much better if they had any decent tall forwards.  Hipwood and McStay are very average.  If you keep Cameron quiet then you go a long way to beating them.

We have actually played some decent teams to kick off the year.  It's no excuse in terms of our skills and so forth, but I agree that if we can fix up the skills enough then we'll win more than we lose.

Except for the afternoon Hipwood kicked 5 goals either side of 3 qtr time last year against us....grr!

Brisbane swithced off after 1/2 time and that was it.

But are skills something that can just be “fixed up” or do skills = say natural ability that can’t be improved?

Phew, we dodged a bullet

I honestly feel like we are the confidence building team. Teams comes up against us, the players in the middle give them enough of a tough run to make them compete hard but our skills and decision making is so bad that the other team ends up getting the win. They go on with confidence and play better, while we continue our trajectory of going nowhere.

You watch Richmond will hit some form now.

  • AFLW REPORT: Gold Coast

    The forecast said wind. The ladder said mismatch. The scoreboard said obliteration. Melbourne didn’t just beat Gold Coast — they dismantled them: 13.15 (93) to 0.6 (6). An 87-point obliteration, the Suns held goalless, and the Demons delivering their second-highest winning margin and third-highest score in AFLW history.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: #28 Will Verrall

    It was a tough ask for him to break through as a 199cm ruckman in the shadow of an all-time great in that position who is also the club captain. He had some good days at Casey but was unable to progress and was delisted at the end of the season.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: #29 Tom Campbell

    The 33-year-old Campbell has yet to play AFL football for Melbourne, but his Casey form has been strong and he has been retained as a ready-made ruck depth option who is widely regarded as someone who is excellent for the culture of the club.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: #30 Harry Sharp 

    The Demons acquired an interesting player in Sharp, who narrowly missed securing a spot in the Lions’ premiership team last year. The 22-year-old medium forward played in the opening round this season and ended up with 18 senior games, although he was substituted in or out in for ten of those matches. He demonstrated glimpses of form, but ultimately ended the year on the margins of the team.

  • 2025 Player Reviews: #31 Bayley Fritsch

    Worked his way back after a slow start and a further slump in form going into the midseason but became a solid contributor for the club in the latter half of 2025. Closing in on 300 goals for the club.

  • AFLW PREVIEW: Gold Coast

    On Friday, the Demons return to our Casey Fields fortress where they have a 77% win rate. The scent of September is in the air and the struggling Suns are on the horizon. The Cranbourne weather forecast? Ominous, like the match itself: a strong chance of carnage. Let’s be honest, last week’s first half against the West Coast was a training drill but we dropped our guard in the final quarter. While this match is a mismatch on paper — second versus seventeenth — football is won in the wind, the contests, and the moments.
