Those are Melbourne times so only 6:50/40pm in Qld.

30 degrees and a stiff wind predicted for each day so it could be a tough slog for the competing teams.

Richmond and who knows with the other

Head says Tigers, heart says Saints.

In the other game, I'm torn between dismay that one of them will win and go through to a prelim and elation that one of them will lose and be eliminated.

Would have to be a mammoth effort by the Saints to get up against the Tigers tomorrow night. They have lost three important players and off field had the distraction of the Long tribunal and appeal. I’m not sure they’re as focused as they should be.

The Geelong v Collingwood game is line ball. The Pies got over the line last week thanks to a lot of things going their way. If they can keep up that momentum, the game’s theirs against an oldish side that are starting to look tired at the wrong end of the season.

Tigers and Cats.

Saints without Ryder, Long and Carlisle will give a yelp for three quarters but lose by 23 points.

Collingwood were great last week, but will hit a brick wall after their trip to the west. Have a feeling Hawkins will have a day out.

I have no particular fondness  for the Saints but I’d love them to beat the Toiges. Just can’t see it happening 

The filth must be on a roll after fixing up the Weagles.  I reckon they’ll win quite easily!! They are also good value @ 2.35 on Sportsbet

Richmond over Saints, though I'd be delighted if this went the other way.

Geelong vs Collingwood? This is like being given the choice of dying from either Ebola or dysentery.

I reckon Geelong ware beating Collingwood.

This is a team that beat St Kilda by 10 goals on a Monday and then backed up on the Friday to spank Port by another 10 goals.

It would be an absolute indictment if this full strength side goes out in straight settys.

Sadly I think tonight will be on sided. If Ryder was in for the saints I'd give them a chance but I think the tigs will be to experienced for them. In saying that I hope the saints can win. 

I hope the cats win tomorrow night, only based on the fact I do not collingwood getting to a prelim giving them a chance to get to the gf.

Geez it’s embarrassing we are out of the finals with rubbish teams like the Saints playing

The holding the ball, incorrect disposal rule has reappeared! Been missing for 6 to 10 rounds but now back. Amazing.

The MFC should be ashamed we finished below the Aints 

Seriously. There is nowhere to hide

i doubt any of the players are watching though, it’s holiday time for them

Cotchin tackle... would be 2 weeks for ANB

That was shocking, incredibly dangerous and Cotchin always seems to get away with it.

Yep, will probably get a fine for that but honestly deserves weeks.

In a fair system he would get at least a week but as we know it's not a fair system.

    THE ACCIDENTAL DEMONS by The Oracle

    In the space of eight days, the Melbourne Football Club’s plans for the coming year were turned upside down by two season-ending injuries to players who were contending strongly for places in its opening round match against the GWS Giants. Shane McAdam was first player to go down with injury when he ruptured an Achilles tendon at Friday afternoon training, a week before the cut-off date for the AFL’s pre-season supplemental selection period (“SSP”). McAdam was beginning to get some real mom

    RETURN TO NORMAL by Whispering Jack

    One of my prized possessions is a framed, autographed guernsey bearing the number 31 worn by my childhood hero, Melbourne’s champion six time premiership player Ronald Dale Barassi who passed away on 16 September 2023, aged 87. The former captain who went on to a successful coaching career, mainly with other clubs, came back to the fold in his later years as a staunch Demon supporter who often sat across the way from me in the Northern Stand of the MCG cheering on the team. Barassi died the

    GAMEDAY: Match SIM vs North Melbourne

    After an agonizingly long off-season the 2025 AFL Premiership Season is almost upon us and the Demons have their first practice hit out against the Kangaroos in a match simulation out at Arden Street. The Demons will take on the Kangaroos in match simulation play, starting from 10am AEDT and broadcast live on Foxtel and Kayo. The play start time was brought forward from the initial 11am bounce, due to the high temperatures forecast.  The match sim will consist of four 25-minute qu
