Not to lighten the mood or anything, but the Blues are looking a good chance to knock GWS off which might keep us in the 8. ?

GWS tanking?

Some very radical crazy moves by their coach with both Finlayson & Cameron playing in defence and they were already behind on the scoreboard so no, they aren't protecting a lead and there was more than a quarter to go.

We were fined half a mil for not tanking. Year in year out there's a scramble for the wooden spoon. Where's everyone else's fines?

Blues find all sorts of ways to choke games.

Regardless of the implications of a GWS win, I'll never get sick of watching Carlton lose.  Eases the pain of today ever so slightly.

That's really cost us. Giants have Adelaide, Melbourne and St Kilda.

Can't see us making it now. Today just shot ourselves in the foot big time.

GWS did us a favor 

Hopefully they can stay in.

Will spare us the embarrassment, and begin the process of a serious review and a clean out of the chaff.

As usual the script of failure continues to get written by our club... other clubs take their opportunities we roll over... not sure what more motivation is needed for this group of players anymore.  Simple we need to beat Freo, Gws & Bombers & based on tonites form we want beat any of them

I am glad GW$ won. 
We deserve to fall out of the 8 on tonight performance 

Now we will see whether there is any pride in the place

If we don’t make it heads must roll

Hate making excuses but Swans were there for 2 days acclimatised vs less than 4 hours..  not sure how this occurred, was it afl  or club decision??? 

If what you say is true, and I do not dispute it.

then there is a clear responsibility on the football department and selectors to get the side fit, mentally right, energised, and ready to play.   And not to play against a side that have had far longer Time to relax and prepare in place. Arguments should have been had with the AFL over this totally unfair or even playing field. 
 

out coached and out thought. Again. 
let alone playing a quarter and not scoring a goal!

Watch Brisbane they kick to the danger zone 30m out. Surprise surprise hit the deck snap goal. We never do that alway to the pocket

Rehabbing: Great to see Kentfield back (much slimmer), walking with Tholstrup, TMac (suspect just a management thing), Viney (still being cautious with that rib cartilage?), Melksham (

    Demonland Trackwatchers braved the scorching morning heat to bring you the following observations of Wednesday's preseason training session from Gosch's Paddock. HARVEY WALLBANGER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Absent: Salem, Windsor (word is a foot rash going around), Viney, Bowey and Kentfield Train ons: Roy George, no Culley today.

    Demonland Trackwatcher Gator ventured down the freeway to bring you his observations from Friday morning's Match Simulation out at Casey Fields.

Christian Petracca, Kade Chandler, Shane McAdam and Tom Fullarton doing non-contact kicking and handball drills on the adjacent oval.  All moving freely at pace.  I didn’

    Demonland Trackwatchers were out in force as the Demons returned to Gosch's Paddock for preseason training on Wednesday morning. GHOSTWRITER'S PRESEASON TRAINING OBSERVATIONS Kozzie a no show. Tommy Sparrow was here last week in civvies and wearing sunnies. He didn’t train. Today he’s training but he’s wearing goggles so he’s likely got an eye injury. There’s a drill where Selwyn literally lies on top of Tracc, a trainer dribbles the ball towards them and Tracc has to g

    THAT WAS THE YEAR THAT WAS: 2024

    Whichever way you look at it, the Melbourne Football Club’s 2024 season can only be characterized as the year of its fall from grace. Whispering Jack looks back at the season from hell that was. After its 2021 benchmark premiership triumph, the men’s team still managed top four finishes in the next two seasons but straight sets finals losses consigned them to sixth place in both years. The big fall came in 2024 with a collapse into the bottom six and a 14th placing. At Casey, the 2022 VFL p
