    What I find interesting about this particular clip is not that Lloyd squibs, but that big tough man Wallis seems to break a nail and is pretty upset about it.

    A pity that football club isn't defunct. 

    Well I remember sitting at the MCG final where Essendon just thugged Fitzroy players. Quinlan, Sidebottom , Wilson,, didn't matter who they were they just attacked the player until they hold few left to actually contest. They couldn't catch one player whose name escapes me now. But it was the most disappointing game I ever saw no football just violence.

    Not so fast SWYL.

    Lets knock them out in Week 1 of the finals.

    An earlier poster here talked about Ox's physical trials and addisiction which he overcame to become an advoctae for the issue. Thats courage.

    Hardwick and Lynch? Hitting blokes in the back of the head or guts when unprepared - weak.

    Based on the Tige's President Peggie Lynnch's comment on the ABC this week, I suspect their Board isn't impressed.

    Fingers crossed. Mathematically though, they can still pinch 9th spot

    This topic is getting a good siting on here, no doubt because if the Ox.

    but is it being raised on any of the other clubs web sites, if it was getting as much exposure on the others then Hardwick may well regret making any comment. And Lynch might cop a bit of attention from players and umpires.

    I have always despised those who may lack a bit of talent so instead of working hard they "go the knuckle".  

    Hardwick was a thug as a footballer, he was one of the few players I could not watch. But like many blokes who were thug players, he seems decent enough once off the field, and I have admired him as a coach - until now. A part of his true nature has emerged and there is clearly an ugly, bitter, nasty part of his baseline personality. 

    I am usually fairly indifferent to Richmond, but I am hungry to see them do one of two things: finish 9th again, or go out backwards with 2 huge losses in the finals.

    Dimma would have a field day with me.

    I almost tear up after every Dees win these days?

    Very very stupid move by Hardwick to dredge up the 2000 Grand Final; illustrating the gutless violence that Essendon served up that day.

    I always remember that photo of michael long in the paper after he smashed troy simmons.

    I said to my friend, long looks like he was possessed, or on something.

    The Monday after the GF, the toilet paper ( herald sun) had it in full colour, it was sicking to say the least.

    The hypocrisy is Dimma has cried in public a ton of times.

    When Ox is coming across as the grown up in the room you know you've lowered your colours I reckon.

    No chance the AFL will bring a charge of bringing the game into disrepute?

    Barracking for a scrappy 35 - 35 draw between Dons and Tiges now, with half of the tigers players reported and suspended for 2+ weeks. Lynch to miss a shot after the siren to win the game. 

    I also would like us to face them first/second week of finals and knock them out. 

    Jeez him bringing the GF has definitely brought out some feelings I repressed!

    Long has done some good stuff since but still have a query next to his name.

    Can we please stop calling him some jovial nickname, his name is Damian and he’s a f log of the highest order.

    Trying to tear someone down because they expressed an opinion and doing so because that person showed emotion in a stressful scenario after years of inner turmoil because of his knees. 90% of coaches/clubs would be on the front foot saying Lynch’s actions are not on.... not the Tigers.

    Mick Condon was the one they couldn't catch.

    So .... I've been to the video tape.
    Schwarz went off about the 20min mark with the blood rule after being popped on the beak by Wallace.
    Got abit of a mouthful from Hardwick on the way off.
    Is that what Hardwick calls crying?

    Dimma is a goose.  He is an angry little twerp.  He has needed some pretty high quality people around him to keep him in check, but you can’t hide your basic nature for ever.

    Suggesting you like your key forward to ‘push the line’ is stupid.  Have you ever seen a team throw their arms in the air for frees as badly as the Tigers forward line?  (Except Geelong) . Riewoldt looks like he’s going to cry every time he misses out on a free.  This now invites defences to really go after these nufties.  Hard-wit is also essentially baiting the umpires.

    Should be some defences that take the invitation to play these fecal stains at their own game....

    Dimma's old teammate, the original Dive Bomber Lloyd, set a standard that has yet to be equalled IMO.

    I looked as well. Schwarta went off for the blood rule, kicking and screaming not crying. Hardwick gave and received a mouthful.

    So Lynch punches his opponent in the stomach off the ball, allowing him to break on to the lead, mark and goal. He cops two cheap fines.  Max gets assaulted off the ball. 

    When are the AFL going to get real?  This is blatant cheating - stopping a player fairly getting to the contest.  It can change matches and all they do is hand down a piddling fine?

    It brings the game into disrepute.

    Lynch should have been suspended for that incident. Weather we are serious about violence behind play or we are not. The AFL needs to get serious about this...

    esse acted like thugs that day, but being at the ground, it was clear that it was schwarz opportunity to fly the flag for some of the young blokes but he didn't and the physical response from the senior players was meek. its a gf and if big blokes are repeatedly beating up on you you need your big blokes to respond with force

    • GAMEDAY: Essendon

      It’s Game Day, and the Demons are staring down the barrel of an 0-5 start for the first time since 2012 as they take on Essendon at Adelaide Oval for Gather Round. In that forgettable season, Melbourne finally broke their drought by toppling the Bombers. Can lightning strike twice? Will the Dees turn their nightmare start around and breathe life back into 2025?

    • PREVIEW: Essendon

      As the focus of the AFL moves exclusively to South Australia for Gather Round, the question is raised as to what are we going to get from the  Melbourne Football Club this weekend? Will it be a repeat of the slop fest of the last three weeks that have seen the team score a measly 174 points and concede 310 or will a return to the City of Churches and the scene where they performed at their best in 2024 act as a wakeup call and bring them out of their early season reverie?  Or will the sleepy Dees treat their fans to a reenactment of their lazy effort from the first Gather Round of two years ago when they allowed the Bombers to trample all over them on a soggy and wet Adelaide Oval? The two examples from above tell us how fickle form can be in football. Last year, a committed group of players turned up in Adelaide with a businesslike mindset. They had a plan, went in confidently and hard for the football and kicked winning scores against both home teams in a difficult environment for visitors. And they repeated that sort of effort later in the season when they played Essendon at the MCG.

    • PREGAME: Essendon

      Facing the very real and daunting prospect of starting the season with five straight losses, the Demons head to South Australia for the annual Gather Round, where they’ll take on the Bombers in search of their first win of the year. Who comes in, and who comes out?

    • NON-MFC: Round 05

      Gather Round is here, kicking off with a Thursday night blockbuster as Adelaide faces Geelong. The Crows will be out for redemption after a controversial loss last week. Saturday starts with the Magpies taking on the Swans. Collingwood will be eager to cement their spot in the top eight, while Sydney is hot on their heels. In the Barossa Valley, two rising sides go head-to-head in a fascinating battle to prove they're the real deal. Later, Carlton and West Coast face off at Adelaide Oval, both desperate to notch their first win of the season. The action then shifts to Norwood, where the undefeated Lions will aim to keep their streak alive against the Bulldogs. Sunday’s games begin in the Barossa with Richmond up against Fremantle. In Norwood, the Saints will be looking to take a scalp when they come up against the Giants. The round concludes with a fiery rematch of last year's semi-final, as the Hawks seek revenge for their narrow loss to Port Adelaide. Who are you tipping this week and what are the best results for the Demons besides us winning?

    • CASEY: Geelong

      There was a time in the second quarter of the game at the Cattery on Friday afternoon when the Casey Demons threatened to take the game apart against the Cats. The Demons had been well on top early but were struggling to convert their ascendancy over the ground until Tom Fullarton’s burst of three goals in the space of eight minutes on the way to a five goal haul and his best game for the club since arriving from Brisbane at the end of 2023. He was leading, marking and otherwise giving his opponents a merry dance as Casey grabbed a three goal lead in the blink of an eye. Fullarton has now kicked ten goals in Casey’s three matches and, with Melbourne’s forward conversion woes, he is definitely in with a chance to get his first game with the club in next week’s Gather Round in Adelaide. Despite the tall forward’s efforts - he finished with 19 disposals and eight marks and had four hit outs as back up to Will Verrall in the second half - it wasn’t enough as Geelong reigned in the lead through persistent attacks and eventually clawed their way to the lead early in the last and held it till they achieved the end aim of victory.

    • REPORT: Geelong

      I was disappointed to hear Goody say at his post match presser after the team’s 39 point defeat against Geelong that "we're getting high quality entry, just poor execution" because Melbourne’s problems extend far beyond that after its 0 - 4 start to the 2025 football season. There are clearly problems with poor execution, some of which were evident well before the current season and were in play when the Demons met the Cats in early May last year and beat them in a near top-of-the-table clash that saw both sides sitting comfortably in the top four after round eight. Since that game, the Demons’ performances have been positively Third World with only five wins in 19 games with a no longer majestic midfield and a dysfunctional forward line that has become too easy for opposing coaches to counter. This is an area of their game that is currently being played out as if they were all completely panic-stricken.
