    Draw between the dogs and the Pies

    Giants and Saints is the other one that interests me... Go the Orange

    Wouldn't IT be nice if we could open the season with two hot sides such as Brisbane and Port at the GABBA or Adelaide Oval. Or a West Coast V Richmond or Geelong game at Optus Stadium. Something different to the same old same old Richmond/Carlton predictable yawn fest.

    The GWS V St Kilda, Essendon V Hawthorn, Collingwood V Dogs games (and our game) should all be worth watching due to those games being hard to tip a winner.

    The rest of the games on paper appear to be a yawn.

    Hopefully GWS soften up the saints before we play them next week.

    Pies and doggies will be interesting. Wouldn't mind seeing the pies take a pasting and the pressure comes on buckley right from the get go.

    Haven’t made the finals in 7 years - haven’t even been close. 

    I guess the only way is up. 

    looking at their line up, I doubt they will make it again.

    So on the basis we have made it  1 year in ten years means they are  close to us.

    No doubt we have been seller dwellers also over the past decade or so. But in the last four years we have won two finals and missed finals by one game twice. 

    carlton have been 16th, 18th, 16th and 11th on the same time period.
    So not close to us

    It’s going to be sad when they beat us this year.

    Good start to the game. 

    helped by muting Jobe and BTs ‘analysis’ 

    cant wait for Sat arvo!!

    Quiet a fluent game. Not many stoppages. Both teams pinging the ball around.

    If we persist with the high bomb into the forward line Carlton will eat us alive.  Their entire game is built around intercepting the forward ball and fast transition.  It couldn't be better designed to make us look bad.

    Players moving on the mark quite a few times, no free. 

    I bet one of ours will scratch their [censored] and a free will get called.

    Anyone who thinks the blues are not on the up is kidding themselves.

    Even if they fold now, they can see they are capable of matching the best.

    Still feel we are a bit light on for leg speed watching this one

    • PREVIEW: North Melbourne

      Can you believe it? After a long period of years over which Melbourne has dominated in matches against North Melbourne, the Demons are looking down the barrel at two defeats at the hands of the Kangaroos in the same season. And if that eventuates, it will come hot on the heels of an identical result against the Gold Coast Suns. How have the might fallen? There is a slight difference in that North Melbourne are not yet in the same place as Gold Coast. Like Melbourne, they are currently situated in the lower half of the ladder and though they did achieve a significant upset when the teams met earlier in the season, their subsequent form has been equally unimpressive and inconsistent.

    • REPORT: Adelaide

      The atmosphere at the Melbourne Football Club at the beginning of the season was aspirational following an injury-plagued year in 2024. Coach Simon Goodwin had lofty expectations with the return of key players, the anticipated improvement from a maturing group with a few years of experience under their belts, and some exceptional young talent also joining the ranks. All of that went by the wayside as the team failed to click into action early on. It rallied briefly with a new strategy but has fallen again with five more  consecutive defeats.

    • CASEY: Coburg

      The Casey Demons returned to their home ground which was once a graveyard for opposing teams but they managed to gift the four points on offer to Coburg with yet another of their trademark displays of inaccuracy in front of goals and some undisciplined football that earned the displeasure of the umpires late in the game. The home team was welcomed by a small crowd at Casey Fields and looked right at home as it dominated the first three quarters and led for all bar the last five minutes of the game. In the end, they came away with nothing, despite winning everywhere but on the scoreboard and the free kick count.

    • PREGAME: Rd 18 vs North Melbourne

      After four weeks on the road the Demons make their long awaited return to the MCG next Sunday to play in a classic late season dead rubber against the North Melbourne Kangaroos. Who comes in and who comes out?

    • POSTGAME: Rd 17 vs Adelaide

      The Demons were wasteful early before putting the foot down early in the 2nd quarter but they chased tail for the remainder of the match. They could not get their first use of the footy after half time and when they did poor skills, execution and decision making let them down.
