GWS get their revenge for last year’s grand final and Tigers in a bit of a post premiership slump not helped by having some injuries and players missing from their hub.

    North on its last legs for the season ...perhaps

    Down by 4 goals in the wet against Carlton at quarter time

    Norf are absolutely terrible.  Watch them do everything they can to throw ungodly amounts of money at players who don't want to come or to those who don't deserve it.

    It's great to watch, even if it has to be Carlton beating them.

    Yet they are every chance of winning.

    And that’s a reflection on Carlton. They dominated possession and kicked 1.5 to 3.0 and it could have been another goal and the ¾ time lead to North but for an act of stupidity by Pittard.

    Pittard what an idiot. His teammate is going to have a shot for goal after the siren to potentially put them in front and he comes in and pushes the Carlton bloke over for no reason. 

    Carlton had so many inside 50's that quarter. Should be well ahead.

    Yep shouldn't have done and it was stupid.

    But Murphy flopped like he has all throughout his career.

    Was a joke of a free kick but evened up for the soft one Bailey Scott got for his goal just before it.

    As much as I hate Norf, a little trip to Carlton Big Footy after a choke would be a nice way to kill time

    Hard to watch with the umpiring in this game. 

    Yeah but how good watching fans lose their marbles at decisions. Someone let us in please.

    Geez. Even the umpires couldn't get North over the line. What a bog ordinary outfit they are.

    Maybe we got too excited last week?

    Hawks are rubbish. 
     

    guess we’ll find out tomorrow night

    They were terrible ...they allowed us so much space and time.

    The GC game was a better test and revealed our skills under pressure as being scrappy but we got the job done.

    Mind you the modern game makes most teams look scrappy.. See GWS

    Very, very sad to see Hawthorn like this?

    Just watching Clarko’s presser and I’m stunned that he opened by saying he was pleased with his players’ endeavour. He emphasized it again a couple of minutes later. 

    Sorry, but there were a few players in brown and gold who showed very little endeavour at all.

    Also had a go at the umpires. Poor form when you lose the way Hawthorn did today.

    • PREGAME: Western Bulldogs

      With only 3 games to go, all against Top 8 fancies, the Demons face a daunting task as they return to the MCG when they play the Western Bulldogs. Who comes in and who goes out?

    • POSTGAME: West Coast

      The Demons return to town fresh off a thumping win over the back-to-back wooden spooners, the West Coast Eagles, played in front of a sparse crowd at Marvel Stadium, the same venue that hosted last week's heartbreaking loss.

    • PREVIEW: West Coast

      It was bad enough that the Melbourne Football Club created yet another humiliating scenario inside its wretched season at Marvel Stadium last Sunday, but the final insult is that it has been commanded to return to the scene of the crime to inflict further punishment on its fans this week. Incidentally, if this match preview, of a game that promises to be one of the most unattractive fixtures in the history of the game, happens to cut out of your computer screen three quarters of the way through, it’s no coincidence. I’ll be mirroring the Demons’ lacklustre effort against St Kilda from last Sunday when they conceded the largest last quarter turnaround for victory in the history of the game.

    • REPORT: St. Kilda

      When looking back at the disastrous end to the game, I find it a waste of time to concentrate on the final few moments when utter confusion reigned. Forget the 6-6-6 mess, the failure to mark the most dangerous man on the field, the inability to seal the game when opportunities presented themselves to Clayton Oliver, Harry Petty and Charlie Spargo, the vision of match winning players of recent weeks in Kozzy Pickett and Jake Melksham spending helpless minutes on the interchange bench and the powerlessness of seizing the opportunity to slow the tempo of the game down in those final moments.
