I think looking at the game styles the value of Ben Brown May be completely underestimated.  If we get the ball movement right, he could have a significant year.  If Mason Cox -Ucker and Cameron can get 3, then Sideshow would get plenty!

If he can get on the park...

I cannot find an excuse today DJ. 

Very little buzz and no real marketing is my guess.

Then again it's a bit like VFL where because entrance is free the clubs really don't want attendance

little marketing? afl were spruiking 'potentially' booked out ansett cup matches and that rd 1 will be a fully booked allocation for nearly all games

it'll be interesting to see just how much people want to go and see games

 

Can you get a refund on a hair transplant?

 

Surely this is the year we get the W in Hobart. It could be like the good old days with the Hawks and Roos propping up the ladder.

Jacob Koschitzke has 6 goals for the Hawks at 3 quarter time.....  been waiting 4 years for Weideman to do something like that.

Don't hold you breath.

they are in front at half time, says a lot for the Geelong superstar team. I do agree Essendon look a bit crappy though.

Old days as in 1925-1960? ?

Aside from death and taxes, if North have a 1 win season you can absolutely guarantee  it will be against us down at Hobart.

That venue is an absolute disaster for us and I can’t work out what the AFL’s obsession is with scheduling us there year after year. Last year they even rescheduled us there during COVID until the TAS premier closed the border on us.

  • REPORT: Hawthorn

    There was a time during the current Melbourne cycle that goes back to before the premiership when the club was the toughest to beat in the fourth quarter. The Demons were not only hard to beat at any time but it was virtually impossible to get the better them when scores were close at three quarter time. It was only three or four years ago but they were fit, strong and resilient in body and mind. Sadly, those days are over. This has been the case since the club fell off its pedestal about 12 months ago after it beat Geelong and then lost to Carlton. In both instances, Melbourne put together strong, stirring final quarters, one that resulted in victory, the other, in defeat. Since then, the drop off has been dramatic to the point where it can neither pull off victory in close matches, nor can it even go down in defeat  gallantly.

  • CASEY: Footscray

    At twenty-four minutes into the third term of the game between the Casey Demons and Footscray VFL at Whitten Oval, the visitors were coasting. They were winning all over the ground, had the ascendancy in the ruck battles and held a 26 point lead on a day perfect for football. What could go wrong? Everything. The Bulldogs moved into overdrive in the last five minutes of the term and booted three straight goals to reduce the margin to a highly retrievable eight points at the last break. Bouyed by that effort, their confidence was on a high level during the interval and they ran all over the despondent Demons and kicked another five goals to lead by a comfortable margin of four goals deep into the final term before Paddy Cross kicked a couple of too late goals for a despondent Casey. A testament to their lack of pressure in the latter stages of the game was the fact that Footscray’s last ten scoring shots were nine goals and one rushed behind. Things might have been different for the Demons who went into the game after last week’s bye with 12 AFL listed players. Blake Howes was held over for the AFL game but two others, Jack Billings and Taj Woewodin (not officially listed as injured) were also missing and they could have been handy at the end. Another mystery of the current VFL system.

  • PREGAME: Brisbane

    The Demons head back out on the road in Round 10 when they travel to Queensland to take on the reigning Premiers and the top of the table Lions who look very formidable. Can the Dees cause a massive upset? Who comes in and who goes out?

    Wayward kicking for goal, dump kicks inside 50 and some baffling umpiring all contributed to the Dees not getting out to an an early lead that may have impacted the result. At the end of the day the Demons were just not good enough and let the Hawks run away with their first win against the Demons in 7 years.
